Re: ...most of my knowledge of them comes from movies of "white supremacists" and occasional other incidents, which usually involve very strange people, such as in killing abortion doctors, burning a black church or dragging a black man behind a truck. I remember from various movies that they also used to hate the ZOG -- "Zionist Occupied Government".
OK, now you actually focus on "a fringe within a fringe", on the far-right's far-right!! Indeed, there still are some PALEO-fascists who cling to eugenics and "old-fashioned" anti-Semitism:
One of the two chief ways Christian Identity must be classed is as a mutant species of "British-Israelism." This is the belief that the English, or the "Anglo-Saxon-Celtic people" of the British Isles, or sometimes all the peoples of northwestern Europe, are the descendants of the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel. Unlike most British-Israelites, however, Identity believers deny that the Jews are descended from the other two tribes. Rather, they hold that the Jews are either descendants of medieval Asiatic converts to Judaism, or of a hopeless mongrelization of actual Jews with peoples condemned in the Bible, principally the Edomites. They assert that Jesus was not ethnically Jewish. Identity goes further than almost any other variety of antisemitism with the claim that the Jews are literally the biological descendants of Satan. Indeed, like the rest of the non-Aryan world, the Jews are not really human at all.

Yet those paleofascist freaks are irrelevant when it comes to figuring out US (geo-)politics... What matters is the agenda of the MAINSTREAM far-right, that is, the agenda of the Judeo-Protestant, pro-Israel far-right.
Re: But surprisingly, since W took power, I am unaware of a single incident involving white supremacists/far right.
Really?! And what of 911??? Not to mention the following:
