 Northwest Front
comment
A series of novels written by white nationalist Harold A. Covington. In the series of books, a bunch of white separatists who refer to themselves as the Northwest Volunteer Army (NVA) launch an insurgency against the United States federal government and establish a Northwest American Republic (NAR). Beginning as a political movement, it morphs into a military organization after the 'Coeur d'Alene' which was the federal government trying to take children from a white nationalist family and transferring to yuppies, which sparks a rebellion. Eventually, the Northwest Republic is formed. In a second war, it expands and seizes, then governs "the entire states of Idaho, Oregon, Washington, and Wyoming as well as hefty chunks of Northern California, western Montana, Alberta, British Columbia and Alaska".It can be thought of as something of a successor to William Luther Pierce’s The Turner Diaries, an earlier and more famous work of white supremacist literature. Like that novel, Northwest Front is meant to promote the author’s white supremacist ideology and to provide a road map for fellow travelers to put their racist beliefs into practice. Specifically, the Northwest Front novels promote the Northwest Territorial Imperative, a white supremacist scheme to build a neo-Nazi white ethnostate in the Pacific Northwest. Covington presents this as a more feasible plan compared to Pierce’s apocalyptic fantasies of global genocide.

Friendly Sniper: Cat-Eyes Lockhart. Off-duty, he's laid-back, unpretentious, approachable and a likeable sort. On duty, on the other hand, he's one of the NVA's deadliest assets all by himself.

The Purge
 Northwest Front / int_1c263b9f
comment
The Purge: The NVA kills "non-whites" which they include Jews, homosexuals, "race-mixers" and other "enemies of the white race". This includes massacre of Mexican migrants en masse in cases. In response to American reconquest attempts, the NAR uses chemical and biological weapons on American and Aztlan cities, attempting to kill as many people as possible. It is portrayed as a good thing because there are few if any whites in the cities by this time (2040s or so; whites mainly left the cities, US rump state is 25% white)

Mexico Called; They Want Texas Back: A Hispanic group translated into English as "The Vanguard of the Race" begins to rebel against the United States after the White Nationalists establish their Northwest Republic. Also stated is that the blacks will attempt to establish New Afrika, Quebecois will secede and all manner of secessionists would begin their clamor after the Federal Government admits in all but name that the Northwest Republic is free.

 Northwest Front / int_55232afa
comment
Politically Incorrect Hero: The White nationalists shoot ALL "non-whites" - including Jews - within their territory on sight. How they would negotiate with the rump federal state seems to bring up odd questions. They also kill any non-white POWs on sight. Also they kill gays,native americans and they line up Mexican migrant workers and shoot them all in the head (ranging from 15 year old girls to 60 year old men in Freedon's Sons). The Palestinian Diplomatic Delegation are the only non-whites allowed in the Northwest American Republic, as the Palestinians were victims of Israel and their struggle brought them respect by the NAR.

comment
Pragmatic Villainy: The NVA initially takes pains to avoid the deliberate killing of young non-white children. This is not because they place any value on their lives - they have no moral objection whatever to murdering children for their race - but because doing so is bad for their public image. They prefer targeted attacks over indiscriminate slaughter for basically the same reason.

Last Disrespects: The day after the Oscars Night Massacre, the NVA publishes a parody of the official casualty list, with a biography of each victim curated to portray them in as bad a light as possible. Curiously, the security personnel killed in the massacre are spared this post-mortem humiliation.

Final Solution
 Northwest Front / int_a969c74a
comment
Final Solution: Under the NAR’s General Order Number Four, all Jews, non-whites, gays, and “race-mixers� are to leave its claimed territory or die. In theory, the NVA is to kill them all on sight, and they would very much like to. In practice, it is acknowledged that their insurgency doesn’t have the strength for that, so they carry out targeted attacks with the intent of forcing these groups to leave.

Take That!: Several characters in regards to Willian Luther Pierce (national alliance head; author of The Turner Diaries). Also in regards to people who think the U.S. can be turned back into a 'white nation', loyalists who refuse to move to the Northwest. This is based on the idea that conquering and ethnically cleansing the entire country or planet is impossible, and it’s best to stick to workable goals and leave “undesirables� with somewhere to run rather than making them fight to the death.

The Remnant: After the second war, the United States becomes more of a nominal entity, with American law being seen as "optional" in remote cases in the countryside. A city in Vermont is in effect, the capitol of the United States now. D.C. nominally is still the capitol, with bureaucrats working as if their decisions matter anywhere but in the remaining areas which follow the central government. The mixed and non-white population is contained to cities by the rump United States, with barricades around them. New England and Maine is where the remaining rich liberals and Jews fled to.
