Well, you nailed it, except for one small part - the so-called existence of "Dog Soldiers" within AIM was an FBI fabrication - for what purpose, I don't recall, but it later came out that the FBI had bad data, and it was, shall we say "exaggerated" .

Aha - I didn't know that, you're right. No surprise here, though; the FBI had quite a bit of bad info in regards to the tribal folk at that point. They still do, in some cases... but that's slowly but surely getting remedied, I think.
