Federal prosecutors say a former U.S. Marine plotted mass murder and sexual assault to decrease the number of minority residents in the United States as part of his membership in a far-right neo-Nazi group, Rapekrieg.
Matthew Belanger was arrested on June 10 in New York and charged with making false statements to a federal firearms licensee in order to make straw purchases of an assault rifle and handgun. Belanger pleaded not guilty to the firearms charges during an arraignment hearing Monday.
In a July 14 court memo, federal prosecutors say that, while a Marine, Belanger plotted far more serious crimes as part of the neo-Nazi group. The memo says Belanger trained with airsoft guns in the woods of Long Island as part of plot to attack the Zionist Order of Governments. The memo also says Belanger was the subject of an FBI Joint Terrorism Taskforce investigation into allegedly plotting to engage in widespread homicide and sexual assault. Much of Belangers ideology and plotting, the memo says, is based around a desire to lessen the number of non-white Americans and to rape white women to increase the production of white children.
In a criminal complaint against Belanger filed June 8, prosecutors allege he violated federal firearms policy twice by purchasing guns via a strawman. In one case, prosecutors claim an unnamed New York police officer purchased a PTR91 assault rifle for Belanger while he was stationed in Hawaii. Belanger allegedly had the same officer purchase a Luger, a handgun which was used by the Nazi armed forces during World War II, for almost $1,000, FBI agents noted in an affidavit.

(18,178 posts)a true Marine would never plot such a massacre.
He's not indictive of recruits, for every one of him, there are thousands upon thousands of loyal Marines who take their OoE seriously and will defend the Constitution.

He is not indictive of our military forces, the vast majority of the military is loyal to the Constitution of the United States and will not engage in white supremacy activities.
This is an institution I spent 35 years of my life in and I still have deep ties to the Marines so I pretty much know what's going on and how the Officers and NCO's are handling this problem.
