"a radius of annhilation that, if it could not include
the ones who deserved it, might as well include
himself" [95]

...hair-raising to see Pynchon put the suicide
bomber/terrorists back in the US where they also have
a home; the effect also to make them (the suicide
bombers over there somewhere - Afghanistan, Iraq,
etc.) a bit less foreign, an to make ourselves, good
US citizens, appear foreign to ourselves.

September 11, 2001 and its consequences seem obvious
on this novel, at least in these first 95 pages.
