Feuerkreig Divison (translates as 'Fire War') is a copycat group styled after Atomwaffen, the more infamous US-based Nazi terror group implicated in several murders and bomb plots. FKD's chat shows they also planned, discussed & attempted several attacks https://unicornriot.ninja/2020/leaked-neo-nazi-terrorist-feuerkreig-division-organizing-chats/ …pic.twitter.com/1LDDEN4FFG

Out of FKD's many discussions about potential bombings and mass shootings, synagogues were by far the most prominent target. FKD members proposed, attempted, or carried out acts of violence or vandalism targeting Jews in both North America & Europe. https://unicornriot.ninja/2020/leaked-neo-nazi-terrorist-feuerkreig-division-organizing-chats/ …pic.twitter.com/zVtMoGnwzT

Conor Climo used the alias 'Ben' / 'Ben Dover' in the Feuerkreig Division's encrypted Wire chat. In addition to discussing various terror tactics, he proposed using Discord chats to recruit teenagers who he could then direct to make improvised bombs. https://unicornriot.ninja/2020/leaked-neo-nazi-terrorist-feuerkreig-division-organizing-chats/ …pic.twitter.com/D04o10ES0N

Another FKD member & US Army soldier, Jarrett William Smith aka 'Anti-Kosmik', was also arrested in Sept '19. In FKD's chat, Smith proposed killing US politicians, bombing news networks & posted a whole lot of advice re making bombs & chemical weapons. https://unicornriot.ninja/2020/leaked-neo-nazi-terrorist-feuerkreig-division-organizing-chats/ …pic.twitter.com/ylOfoKqeUz

The Feuerkreig Divison was co-founded and led by an anonymous Estonian teen who went by 'Commander.' 'Commander', believed to be aged 16-19, disappeared early this year, likely due to arrest. Before that, he discussed a lot of potential terror attacks. https://unicornriot.ninja/2020/leaked-neo-nazi-terrorist-feuerkreig-division-organizing-chats/ …pic.twitter.com/3JKjLeClDL

In late July 2019, 'Commander' shared Bernie Sanders' home addresses in the Feuerkreig Division's Wire chat; other members discussed wanting to see Sanders get bombed. It's not clear if any material attack plans were made or if this was just chatter. https://unicornriot.ninja/2020/leaked-neo-nazi-terrorist-feuerkreig-division-organizing-chats/ …pic.twitter.com/0fsRBtKx3F

'Commander' also left some messages in the Feuerkrieg Division chat hinting at a "failed bombing" - this matches up with an incident where swastika graffiti and an unexploded IED were found near the only synagogue in Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania. https://unicornriot.ninja/2020/leaked-neo-nazi-terrorist-feuerkreig-division-organizing-chats/ …pic.twitter.com/pdf08Jud1q

At one point last year, a Feuerkrieg Division member in Germany claimed to be actively staking out a refugee center for an attack: https://unicornriot.ninja/2020/leaked-neo-nazi-terrorist-feuerkreig-division-organizing-chats/ …pic.twitter.com/YBleDaTinc

The Feuerkrieg Division’s collapse was brought on in part by their tendency to provoke law enforcement. FKD’s Wire chat from last summer shows members debating what kinds of threats to send to U.K. police after one of their teenage members was arrested: https://unicornriot.ninja/2020/leaked-neo-nazi-terrorist-feuerkreig-division-organizing-chats/ …pic.twitter.com/OXXwtE6YEU

In January, 'Buntovnik' (alias of Croatian teenager Noah Licul) discussed preparations Feuerkrieg Division made with "a few organizations" to "burn down a Jewish institution in Croatia": "...FKD will take a part in storming in and setting it on fire" https://unicornriot.ninja/2020/leaked-neo-nazi-terrorist-feuerkreig-division-organizing-chats/ …pic.twitter.com/Nqjp98iRxT

The Feuerkrieg Division cell in Croatia that had discussed planning the synagogue attack posted in the chat to brag about acquiring some kind of explosive shell, which they claimed was old anti-aircraft munitions: https://unicornriot.ninja/2020/leaked-neo-nazi-terrorist-feuerkreig-division-organizing-chats/ …pic.twitter.com/T5liluXkzZ

After the mass shooting in El Paso last August, Feuerkrieg Division members discussed wanting to increase the rate of deadly attacks by white nationalists. Some debated the tactics and said they should do bombings instead, like Timothy McVeigh: https://unicornriot.ninja/2020/leaked-neo-nazi-terrorist-feuerkreig-division-organizing-chats/ …pic.twitter.com/h7Rdst8pVG

A Feuerkrieg Division member posting as 'Dylan' or 'a_lost_rhodesian' (a nod to Dylann Roof) was among those calling for more shootings. He was recently identified by antifascists as Dylan D., a junior at Miller Place High School in Suffolk County, NY. https://unicornriot.ninja/2020/leaked-neo-nazi-terrorist-feuerkreig-division-organizing-chats/ …pic.twitter.com/2WlJcFsk6Q

Many of the Feuerkrieg Division’s members are teens - they were encouraged to try to ‘redpill’ and recruit high school classmates, particularly “school shooter types”: https://unicornriot.ninja/2020/leaked-neo-nazi-terrorist-feuerkreig-division-organizing-chats/ …pic.twitter.com/XS4NyqiuoD

The Feuerkrieg Division discussed a desire to exploit the coronavirus. Members were encouraged to spread #COVIDー19 to Jews and people of color. They also outlined using bomb threats to slow already burdened emergency response in potential attack areas: https://unicornriot.ninja/2020/leaked-neo-nazi-terrorist-feuerkreig-division-organizing-chats/ …pic.twitter.com/6W8CA5uXks

One of the FKD members encouraging spreading the coronavirus (‘white_powerstroke’ on Riot chat) is Dillon Hopper - former leader of the neo-nazi group Vanguard America. He encouraged other members to prepare attacks to coincide with the 2020 election: https://unicornriot.ninja/2020/leaked-neo-nazi-terrorist-feuerkreig-division-organizing-chats/ …pic.twitter.com/8C0ie9qG2R
