Neo-Nazi planned to bomb synagogue, gay club in Las Vegas
Arutz Sheva ^ | 10/8/19

Posted on 08/10/2019 2:16:12 PM PDT by Eleutheria5

A 23-year-old neo-Nazi was charged on Friday with planning an attack on a synagogue and gay club in Las Vegas.

The suspect, Conor Climo, who was employed as a security guard, was arrested on Friday after FBI agents found unregistered bomb-making materials in his home, including fireworks, fuses, wiring, thermite, sulfuric acid, a soldering iron, circuit boards and other items needed for building timed explosive devices. The agents also found a notebook with handwritten plans on carrying out terror attacks in Vegas.

The FBI said that Climo had been "communicating with individuals who identified with a white supremacist extremist organization using the National Socialist Movement to promote their ideology." The Las Vegas Joint Terrorism Task Force began investigating Climo in April when they discovered he was communicating with Atomwaffen Division, a white supremacist neo-Nazi group.

"AWD encourages attacks on the federal government, including critical infrastructure, minorities, homosexuals, and Jews," the complaint states. "AWD works to recruit like-minded members to the organization, train them in military tactics, hand-to-hand combat, bomb making, and other techniques in preparation for an 'ultimate and uncompromising victory' in a race war."

According to the charge, Climo discussed his plans to improvise explosive devices and attack a synagogue and gay bar with undercover FBI agents on encrypted online chats.

After Climo was arrested, he admitted to the FBI agents that he belonged to a neo-Nazi group and that he hated "African-Americans, Jews, and homosexuals" and was planning on building an improvised explosive device.

They’re socialists, as are Antifa. All socialists are potentially dangerous...but usually only if they find a way to stick together. When you combine socialism with hatred of everybody [antisocial socialists!] though, it’s hard to build up the numbers to the same level as the ‘inclusive’ kind of socialists who have no such limitations on recruitment and alliances. International socialists will recruit anyone, they turn no one away. That’s why white neonazis tend to get in bed, oddly enough, with black separatists like Nation of Islam, but have problems with white internationalists. Thank goodness for infighting among socialists.

the question is... just how are we raising 20-x year old guys to be Nazis?

what Satanic influences are they being exposed to?

we can fix this problem (or at least most of it) if we can figure this out, imho

Can’t be much to them.
Supposedly formed in 2015-16 with a grand total 80 members in 2018.
Most likely an FBI front.

I just looked them up. Surprisingly, they are headquartered here in FL like Stormfront nuts. Yet I've never heard of them...probably because they were recently created in 2015 just in time for the 2016 campaign season. Turns out there are estimated to be 80 of them, and if they are in as many countries as claimed, they must be spread awful thin. Sounds more like the size of a smallish biker gang:

The Atomwaffen Division (Atomwaffen meaning "atomic weapons" in German) is a neo-Nazi terrorist network. Formed in 2015 and based in the Southern United States, it has since expanded across the United States and it has also expanded into the United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, and … Country: United States (Country of origin) Political position: Far-right [in what way, exactly?] Headquarters: Florida, United States Size: 80+ (2018)

These 80 people, who so far appear to be mental health cases, autistic, etc...are spread through several countries and according to PBS, in 'cells throughout the US.' What, 2 or 3 person cells? They were discovered because one of them shot his buddies then warned the feds about their plots.

Their ‘plan’ in the Tampa case where an ex member shot them up sounds like they just copied the Cuban spy network down here in wanting to go after power lines and a nuke plant. Only these mental cases probably couldn’t figure out how to make a tuna casserole.

Unfortunately, I lost all of my fuses, wiring, thermite, sulfuric acid, soldering irons, circuit boards and other items in a tragic boating accident.

It doesn't sound like the guy actually had any economic program.

He just hated some kinds of people.

The Splc says the group was formed out of Iron March, an influential fascist forum that went offline in September 2017.

Never heard of that either. “Influential?”

A small number of persons can legally possess such materials, like the nitroglycerin specialist that was featured on Savage Builds not long ago. It’s a little redundant, but accurate. The same applies to fireworks depending on the state in which you live, like here in IL. A family member of mine is licensed to have and purchase fireworks, which are otherwise illegal, because he is licensed and the items are registered with the state (and federal for other explosive compounds).

As far I know, Nevada has no such laws. And let’s face it, anyone can make thermite, because it’s two ingredients which are readily available to the public.

Watching part of See BS Evening “News,” I noticed just that.

This yo-yo in Vegas was talked about at length, and some other “neo-Nazi” in Florida who is being released from prison and who said he’s “Looking forward to getting his AR-15” back.

No mention of violent antifa types or the attack in Portland, Ore. on conservative writer Andy Ngo was badly beaten by antifa left-wingers.

No mention of the Black Lives Matter idiots who openly call for attacks on the police. See BS indeed!
