In the wake of the Bondi terror attack, far-right neo-Nazi associates have threatened to kidnap Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and send bombs to mosques, prompting police raids. Secret chats reveal a $10,000 plot to kidnap the PM, with a man offering the money to rent a van and carry out the abduction. This comes as police investigate a neo-Nazi associate over a separate social media post calling for Albanese's abduction. The chatroom, on the popular gaming platform Discord, showcases a growing online extremism issue, with far-right influencers promoting violence and extremism. Experts warn of neo-Nazi influence on Australia's right, with coded threats and extreme rhetoric shared on the server. Police are now investigating threats against the same mosque in Lakemba, warning of coordinated violence at Australia Day rallies. Neo-Nazi accounts post 'hype edits' of the attack footage, recruiting links, and clips of Thomas Sewell, leader of the National Socialist Network (NSN), which has disbanded due to government crackdowns. A flyer calls for another Cronulla riot, and a 20-year-old man is charged. The day after the attack, users on the Discord chat's livestream discuss abducting the PM, with one offering $10,000. Another user claims to have high-powered bombs to send to mosques, using cheap materials from Amazon. Police raid this user, 'xertz', after he posts about terror attacks. Key March for Australia organizers, including Bec Freedom and Matt Trihey, have been revealed as neo-Nazi associates, despite previous denials. The group's inner workings show coordination of rallies, with moderators sharing antisemitic and extreme views. Neo-Nazi leaders, including Sewell and Davis, spoke at the first marches in August, but neo-Nazis are not expected to take the megaphone again due to recent federal hate speech laws.
