...have to honor the memory of their people? Would such a statement be acceptable to Time magazine? The narrator and Samuel A. Weems (a retired judge from Arkansas, who died in 2003) suggested that Armenian people collaborated with the Nazis to exterminate the Jewish people because they're Aryan, and today Armenian people react like Nazis. Do you think that because a few people commit terrorist acts that their entire nation and religion should be called terrorist? We don't believe that a nation is responsible for what 10 people do, but we are sure that states are responsible...
...answers that the Teouma site may help provide are just as precious. The tussle over the origins of the Lapita and Polynesian people has boiled for more than a century, from the 1885 publication of New Zealand scholar Edward Tregear's widely debated theory that Maori were of Aryan descent, to Thor Heyerdahl's attempt, in his epic 1947 raft trip from Peru to Polynesia, to prove that South America was the Polynesians' homeland...
Whatever the outcome of the Idaho case, there is no question about violence committed by Identity believers elsewhere. Robert J. Mathews, who left Aryan Nations, Butler's umbrella organization for racists, and formed the Order, died in a 1984 gunfight with federal agents after a crime spree; other Order members drew prison terms of up to 100 years.

"There are outrageous Aryan attitudes in a healthy minority of listeners," says John Rich. "It's K.K.K. b_______, and at some point, you just can't believe it's still out there. But you've got to confront...
Seeking protection and status, many inmates join gang syndicates such as the Bloods, the Mexican Mafia and the Aryan Brotherhood, whose inflexible ethic of vengeance ensures that no knife attack can ever be the last. "The guards can't solve all this fighting," laments one convicted murderer, Kenneth Foutenette. "The only solution is the inmates." Says William Charles, a lanky con in his 20s serving an eight-year sentence: "It's fighting for race. They stab someone, and we get 'em back." Above Charles' sink, like a battle flag, hangs the distinctive red kerchief of the Bloods, a major gang...
