20, 25 April, 6 May: Attack on the Israeli embassy (look at the date). Earl procures supplies and makes threats to reluctant “legal” Organization members. (See chapter III for a non-explanation of “legals”.) Black army members are being paid to steal supplies. The Organization is making compromises all over the place. Regardless of an ( Read more... )

10, 14 April: Unit 6 is still counterfeiting and planning an attack on a nuclear power plant. “I must confess that I’m glad at this point that my probationary period still has 11 months to run and that I won’t be asked to volunteer for this particular mission.” (Famous last words?)

Carol was being a total cunt to some non-white customers at the ( Read more... )

28 March, 2 April: The future is without paper currency. (I don’t know, it’s lasted this long.) Unit 6 is running a print shop as a cover. Earl is given a fake ID with the name “David J. Bloom” on it. The J is for “Jiant Heeb”. Now Earl’s got, like, the Talmudic cooties; ew! Luckily, with his hair dyed, he can pass.

The Italian mafia is ( Read more... )

24 March: Earl is tried on two counts by the Order. First, his visit to Georgetown which compromised his Unit’s security, and second, his failure to commit suicide upon capture.

The punishment for the first charge is an extension on his probationary period for admittance into the Order. The punishment for the second charge is a suicide mission ( Read more... )

21 March, 1993: A year and three months later. The System had captured Earl (the others managed to escape). He is tortured by and Israeili Intelligence Official (nothing at all graphic: boring) and sings like Ethel (let’s say; gangway, World, get off of my runway!) He is sent to a special prison for Organization members (because that would ( Read more... )

4 December: There is a fruitless attempt to recruit the runaway, Elsa (from chapter IX) and her new family (or whatever you want to call it). But they’re potheads. Something about how blacks and Jews are responsible for whites’ apathy.

There’s something pervy about how Billy describes “redheaded” Elsa. There’s something that attempts to approach ( Read more... )

28, 30 November: Unit 6 deals with trespassers (Bill invited them in). Some quotes.

“Bill tried to discourage them. In his best imitation-ghetto accent he shouted through the door: “Hey, man, dis place occupied. Move yo’ ass on outa heah.”

”(Note to the reader: The dialect of the Negroes in America contained many special terms relating to drug ( Read more... )

16, 27 November: (If adjunct police force were to be culled from welfare recipients, there would be more white single mothers than anything.)

There are loyalty checks. There is a Book! There is an Order. There are grey robes. There are suicide capsules in pendants on gold chains. (The idiot, Earl, has written all of this in his diary.) ( Read more... )

9, 14 November: General mayhem from the Organization’s mortar attack on the (heavily-secured) Capitol. Copycat offenses occur around the country. (I think it’s high time to suspend Habeas Corpus.)

Truer now than ever (all hope lies in the proles?): “Of all the segments of the population from which we had hoped to draw new members, the “ ( Read more... )
