Siege (sometimes stylised as SIEGE) is an anthology of essays written in the 1980s by the neo-Nazi James Mason.[5] After growing disillusioned with the mass movement approach of neo-Nazi movements, Mason began advocating for white revolution through terrorism. Referred to as the "Godfather of Fascist Terrorism", Mason has been designated a terrorist entity in Canada.[6][7]
Mason originally wrote the essays for the eponymous newsletter of the National Socialist Liberation Front, a militant splinter of the American Nazi Party.[8] They were first published in a single volume (with the support of Michael J. Moynihan) in 1992. In the 2010s the book found a new audience online among younger neo-Nazis, with #ReadSiege becoming a popular alt-right hashtag.

Yhdysvalloissa avoin "rotusodan" ihannointi sai uutta pontta, kun yhdysvaltalainen uusnatsi James Mason julkaisi Siege-nimisen kirjan 90-luvun alussa. Teos on käännetty suomeksi ja liikkuu myös natsien Telegram-ryhmissä sekä muualla verkossa. [In the United States, the idealization of an open "race war" got a new impetus when the American neo-Nazi James Mason published a book called Siege in the early 90s. The work has been translated into Finnish and is also circulating in Nazi Telegram groups and elsewhere online.](via Google Translate)
