White Aryan Resistance (WAR)

W.A.R [sic] above a grinning skull with an eyepatch above crossed bones. The skull and bones sit on a black shield, with W.A.R sitting at the top in black text on a white background.

White Aryan Resistance was a white supremacist and neo-Nazi organization founded by a former Ku Klux Klan leader in 1980. In 1993 the group expanded into Canada, and its leader was arrested and deported by Canadian authorities. WAR is no longer active, but their symbols are still occasionally used in far right contexts.
