Bring the War Ho.
In its wake, grievances intensify and violence becomes a logical course of action for some.
Belew\'s disturbing history reveals how war cannot be contained in time and space.
Its command structure gave women a prominent place in brokering intergroup alliances and giving birth to future recruits.
The White Power Movement operated with discipline and clarity, undertaking assassinations, mercenary soldiering, armed robbery, counterfeiting, and weapons trafficking.

Returning to an America ripped apart by a war that, in their view, they were not allowed to win, a small but driven group of veterans, active-duty personnel, and civilian supporters concluded that waging war on their own country was justified.
