THE ATOMWAFFEN DIVISION

From Wikipedia....

​

"The Atomwaffen Division (Atomwaffen meaning "atomic weapons" in German) is a neo-Nazi terrorist[3] organization based in the United States and active in other countries such as the United Kingdom, Canada, and Germany. Founded in 2013, the group's main base of operations is in Florida, but it has members in other states such as Texas and Montana. The group is part of the alt-right,[4][5][6] but is considered extreme even within that movement.[4]

Atomwaffen encourages members to burn the United States flag and Constitution, and to attack the U.S. government and minorities (especially Jews).[7] The group's membership is mostly young, and the Atomwaffen Division has been active on university campusesrecruitment postering. The San Antonio, Texas, chapter is listed as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC).[8][9][10]

Atomwaffen has engaged in plans to cripple public water systems and destroy parts of the American electric grid.[7] Atomwaffen has also been accused of planning to blow up nuclear plants to cause meltdowns of American nuclear energy sites.[7] The organization aims for a violent overthrow of the United States government by use of terrorism and guerrilla warfaretactics. Since 2017, the organization has been linked to assaults and five killings."
