News Aryans go kaput
Posted by John F. Sugg on Fri, Sep 28, 2007 at 8:01 PM
A year ago, I wrote about a bunch of losers called Aryan Nations -- once one of the leaders in the violent white supremacist movement. The report noted that Aryan Nations had split, had been evicted from its Idaho HQ, and had lost several of its fuhrers, including founder Richard Girnt Butler.
Now that faction of Aryan Nations has gone to the Great Reich in the Sky. The group's leader, Jonathan Williams, and one of his lieutenants, Laslo Patterson, have disbanded the outfit. The group's website is gone. So are the swastikas and Klan robes, according to Williams.
Williams and Patterson have now formed the International United Church of YHWH
(Yahweh) in Alabama. It's a "Christian Identity" church -- a bizarre creed that teaches Europeans (mainly the Brits) are the true Israelites, Jews descend from a union of Eve and Satan, and non-whites are subhuman. Despite those beliefs, Williams told an Alabama paper that his church is not bigoted.
Oh.
