...leader of the white supremacist group called the Order, also known as the Silent Brotherhood, Bruce Pierce, 30, is believed to have been one of the men who gunned down Denver Talk Show Host Alan Berg in his driveway last June.

Written under the pseudonym Andrew Macdonald in 1978 by William Pierce, leader of a white supremacist group in Arlington, Va., The Turner Diaries was taken seriously by one militant group in the Northwest. Federal and state authorities say that members of a 30to-40-person gang calling itself The Order, apparently named for the revolutionaries in Pierce's book, were responsible for a $500,000 armored-car robbery last April in Seattle; a $3.6 million Brink's armored-car holdup last July in Ukiah, Calif.; and three shootouts with the police and FBI since October in Idaho, Oregon and Washington...

Gale has worked closely with Posse Comitatus, a right-wing antitax organization active in the Midwest. In 1983, Posse Comitatus Member Gordon...
According to authorities, the Brotherhood of Silence preaches the violent overthrow of the Government and has links to other white-supremacist organizations. In addition to the two men arrested last week, five others are in jail awaiting trial and one was killed in a shootout with police, prompting U.S. Attorney Joseph Russoniello to say that the Brotherhood "seems to have been successfully neutered at this time." Yet two others are believed to be at large, and only a fraction of the money stolen has been recovered...
