Angered by what they perceive as federal abuses of power and "race mixing," the "new patriots" have openly declared war on America. But who are they? By tracing such key events as the Oklahoma City bombing and the debacles at Ruby Ridge and Waco, this program examines the militia movement’s major players, particularly Aryan Nations; its leader, Pastor Richard Butler; and the splinter group, The Order. Along with extensive newsreel footage, the video offers numerous interviews, including Kevin Flynn, an expert on The Order and author of The Silent Brotherhood; Randy Weaver, the fugitive in the Ruby Ridge standoff; James Nichols, brother of Oklahoma City bomber Terry Nichols; and experts from the FBI, ATF, and Southern Poverty Law Center. A Discovery Channel Production. (51 minutes)
