Combat 18

Searchlight, Red Action, and other commentators on both the left and right, including journalist Larry O'Hara, have speculated that C18 was created by the British internal security service MI5 to discredit the BNP while acting as a honey trap, or sting operation, designed to attract the most violent neo-Nazis in the UK into a single organization, where they could be monitored more easily. Some commentators also suggest that it was used by MI5 t ...

Copeland was born in Isleworth, London, and brought up in Yateley, Hampshire, where he attended Yateley comprehensive school and passed in seven subjects in his General Certificate of Secondary Education.

He left school when he was 16 to start ...

Though some groups did claim responsibility for the bombings, Copeland maintained he had worked alone and had not discussed his plans with anyone, which the police accepted.

When asked why he had targeted ethnic minorities and the gay community, he spoke of his belief that ethnic minorities are ...

Copeland's first attack, on Saturday, April 17, 1999, was in Electric Avenue, Brixton, part of the so-called "frontline," a street made famous in the UK by the 1981 Brixton race riots that took place there. Copeland made his bomb using explosive from fireworks and taped it inside a sports bag before priming it and planting it outside the Iceland supermarket on the corner of Electric Avenue. The market traders became suspicious of it and moved it several times before it detonated just as the police arrived, at 5:25 in the evening. Fift ...

Typically, cells often number less than three individuals (and rarely more than a dozen). The basic characteristic of the structure is that there is no explicit communication between cells which are otherwise acting toward the same goals. Members of one cell may have little or no specific information on who else is agitating on behalf of their cause. Leaderless movements may have symbolic figureheads. It can be a public figure or an inspirational author, who picks generic targets and objectives, but does not actually manage or execute ...
