Exploiting the Internet

Use of Public Internet Forums

National Alliance sympathizers have also increased the group's exposure by exploiting public Internet forums, including a feature offered on the popular on-line book service, amazon.com. In a section called "Reviews and Commentaries," amazon.com browsers are invited to comment on books they have read. In at least two such reviews, which no longer appear on the Web site, NA supporters have pushed the organization's message. Reviewing The Turner Diaries, one of these sympathizers urged other readers to "contact the author's organization, the National Alliance, and get involved in the struggle for self determination and freedom for our people." Another commentary lamented that "the white peaple [sic] out there that just sit on their butts all day and allow the Jewish takeover of the U.S. to continue unchallenged really need to read the chapter called the 'Day of the Rope.' Everyone else who wants to fight needs to join the National Allience [sic]."
