Page "William Luther Pierce" Paragraph 12

Pierce gained international public attention following the Oklahoma City bombing, as Timothy McVeigh was alleged to have been influenced by The Turner Diaries ( 1978 ), the novel written by Pierce under the pseudonym Andrew Macdonald.

The book is a graphically violent depiction of a future race war in the United States, which includes a detailed description of the mass hangings-" the Day of the Rope "- of many " race traitors " ( especially Jews, gay people, and those in inter-racial marriages or relationships ) in the public streets of Los Angeles, followed by the systematic ethnic cleansing of the entire city.

This violence and killing is called " Terrible yet Absolutely Necessary ".

The story is told through the perspective of Earl Turner, an active member of the white revolutionary underground The Organization.
