Sometime during the subsequent months, a fellow Hammerskin from Montreal visited Chicago and wanted to set up a meeting to introduce me to Wolfgang Droege, a radical Canadian KKK leader who’d been heating things up across the border. He tried to draw me in by saying that Libya’s Muslim dictator Muammar Gaddafi had sent a government attaché to meet with Droege about giving North American neo-Nazis some financial backing. “Wolfie wants the Chicago Hammerskins in on it,” he said.
I suppose I didn’t particularly care if Gaddafi wasn’t white. He despised the Jews as much as we did. And this could help bankroll a weapons arsenal. After all, an enemy of the enemy—the Jews and Israel—could be an ally. Gaddafi wanted to meet serious anti-Israel American radicals. Wanted to fly us over to Libya to discuss a strategy and support our cause by seeding us with cash.
This was big time. As serious as it could get.
I said I’d think about it, uncertainty hitting me like a cinder block. The Canadian Hammerskin hounded me, pressured me, insisting this was our big chance. I knew Droege had previously helped organize a failed military coup on the Caribbean island of Dominica and had gone to prison for it. That kind of adventure was intense and appealed to me. I was pumped at first; I could indeed be part of something huge. International.
But what if I got caught? What if it was a set-up? I didn’t know this Droege guy or the Canadian skinhead very well. If I agreed to the plan and the feds caught wind of it, I’d certainly be convicted as a traitor to the United States. A crime punishable by death, not prison time. I loved my country, I just didn’t agree with those currently in power—the System that held us down. I was willing to take on the government on my terms, but this wasn’t the way to do it. Plus I didn’t even like these Middle-Eastern ragheads; why should I trust them?
“He wants to give us a million dollars,” pleaded the Montreal Hammerskin. “Think of all the weapons we can buy with that kind of money. The damage we can do.”
He was coming on too strong. “So, why don’t you go?” I asked.
“Wolfgang specifically asked for Clark Martell. When I told him he was in prison, he asked for the next in command.”
“Tell Wolfgang I appreciate the offer, but I’ll have to pass this time. I don’t have a passport,” I lied.
So I respectfully declined and kept my involvement domestic for the time being.
Damn good thing I did. A year later Droege and his cohorts ended up in federal prison because the whole Gaddafi deal had been a sting operation set up by Canadian Intelligence.
I’d dodged a major bullet.
