Organization:notes | Founded in the United States in 2015, the Atomwaffen Division (AWD) is a militant accelerationist neo-Nazi terror group, which has since expanded to the United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, and elsewhere. The group calls for acts of violence against racial, religious, and ethnic groups, and informants, police, and bureaucrats. AWD promotes a philosophy that individuals should carry out attacks against institutions and civilians to increase societal tensions, collapsing the government, and creating a National Socialist state for the white race out of the chaos. AWD has previously held training camps, also known as hate camps, where its members receive weapons and hand-to-hand combat training. AWD members have also carried out violent acts at public rallies, including the August 2017 rally in Charlottesville, Virginia. In February 2025, two AWD members were found guilty in the U.S. for conspiring to damage Maryland's power grid. | ca_listed_terrorists | ca-lte-160-atomwaffen-division | ||||
