  We study the time dependent propagation of sub-ankle ultra-high energy cosmic
rays (UHECRs) originating from point-like Galactic sources. We show that drift
in the Galactic magnetic field (GMF) may play an important role in the
propagation of UHECRs and their measured anisotropy, particularly when the
transport is anisotropic. To fully account for the discreteness of UHECR
sources in space and time, a Monte Carlo method is used to randomly place
sources in the Galaxy. The low anisotropy measured by Auger is not generally
characteristic of the theoretical models, given that the sources are
distributed in proportion to the star formation rate, but it can possibly be
understood as a) intermittency effects due to the discrete nature of the
sources or, with extreme parameters, b) a cancellation of drift current along a
current sheet with the outward radial diffusive flux. We conclude that it is
possible to interpret the Galactic sub-ankle CR flux as being due entirely to
intermittent discrete Galactic sources distributed in proportion to star
formation, but only with probability of roughly 35 percent, of which the
spectrum is in accord with observations about 30 percent of the time.
  An alternative explanation for the low anisotropy may be that they are mostly
extragalactic and/or heavy.
