You are absolutely correct. AIM, specifically, the Colorado American Indian Movement has co-opted the Dog Man society to be their "secret warrior society" it is a bit of a secret society, not unlike the "Fruit of Islam" is to the Nation of Islam.

Just for the record, Chruchill and Dennis Means are big players in the Colorado AIM group. The REAL AIM movement (out of Minnesota) have denounced both of them as poseurs. It is interesting that Leonard Peltier has maintained connection with BOTH groups.

Semper Fi

Thank you - that's what I've been trying to say. But just because Colorado AIM uses the name doesn't make 'em Dog Soldiers... no more than Churchill saying that everyone should have died in 9/11 is accurate. It's just more smoke and mirrors and crap. :)

But yes, both Churchill and Russell Means are players in Colorado AIM. Dennis Banks (who I think you mixed up with Means) also has been affiliated with them in the past, although he's been backing away slowly for years from Means.

And Peltier's no fool; he's going to talk to anyone who might promote getting him out of prison, regardless of which side they stand on. Then again, being in prison sucks, so I'm not surprised. :)
