Neo-Nazi Magazine to Feature Obama Assassination Cover
Neo-Nazi boss , long given to swaggering threats and proposals for violence, this week went even further than normal 鈥� announcing plans for a magazine cover headlined 鈥淜ill This N-----?鈥� with a photo of Barack Obama and, two days later, publishing the home address of a juror who helped convict another neo-Nazi leader in a federal conspiracy case.
White, who heads the Virginia-based American National Socialist Workers Party, has issued a series of Internet calls for violence in recent years, including his infamous September 2007 suggestion that followers 鈥淟ynch the Jena 6,鈥� a reference to black high school students in Jena, La. But of late, his postings have become even more violent, possibly as a result of White鈥檚 deliberate attempts to be provocative in the face of waning public attention.
On Tuesday, White posted on his Overthrow.com website a request for money to pay for a special issue of his National Socialist magazine. The mocked-up cover, with a huge 鈥淜ill This N-----?鈥� headline, shows Obama speaking to a crowd with a rifle鈥檚 crosshairs superimposed on his head. White said that the accompanying article would explain the Democratic presidential nominee鈥檚 鈥渞adical Communist politics and Jewish backers 鈥� and how he plans genocide against white working people.鈥�
Then, on Thursday, White posted the name, home address and several phone numbers for an allegedly 鈥淕ay Jewish anti-racist鈥� juror who helped convict Matt Hale, then-leader of the neo-Nazi World Church of the Creator, of soliciting the murder of a federal judge. Hale was sentenced in 2005 to 40 years in prison.
White does not directly propose violence against the juror. But he told his readers that the man 鈥減layed a leading role in inciting both the conviction and the harsh sentence that followed.鈥� He also described the conviction as wrongful and said that the prison term handed Hale was a 鈥渃riminally long sentence.鈥�
White, who lives in Roanoke, Va., has a long history of issuing sneering threats and vulgar, racist attacks. Earlier this summer, on July 22, he verbally attacked what he called 鈥溾�榬espectable鈥� n------鈥� in the NAACP and elsewhere in American society. 鈥淚 am convinced, more and more each day, that the only solution to this problem is to kill all of the n------ involved, preferably with state sponsorship,鈥� he wrote. 鈥淲hen the death squads come, line me up as volunteer number one.鈥�
