Hey Gotcha, good memory, it's right at the beginning:
"His chief was one Da Conho, a mad Brazilian who wanted to go fighting
Arabs in Israel. (...) During the weeks that followed, when the head
chief was looking the other way, Da Conho would assemble his machine
gun, camouflage it with iceberg lettuce, watercress and Belgian endive,
and mock-strafe the guests assembled in the dining room. 'Yibble, yibble,
yibble,' he would go, squinting malevolent along the sights, 'got you
dead center, Abdul Sayid. Yibble, yibble, Muslim pig.' Da Conho's machine
gun was the only one in the world that went yibble yibble." (22f)
Peace on Earth!
