MailOnline gained exclusive access to the gang's leadership and visited its secretive headquarters – which was packed with Nazi memorabilia and White Supremacist propaganda.
Founded in September by ex-convict Mika Ranta, a self-confessed, violent neo-Nazi, Soldiers of Odin is one of an increasing number of anti-migrant groups springing up across the continent. The group insists it has no connection to the Swedish football ‘firms’ who went on the rampage in Stockholm last week and says it has not been involved in violence. But according to police, it is just a matter of time.
Almost all of them have criminal records, with several having served lengthy prison sentences.
When MailOnline later gained exclusive access to the group’s headquarters, a converted bar in a suburb of Kemi, western Finland, replica assault rifles and Nazi memorabilia were openly on display. This included a dagger with a swastika on the hilt, an SS officer’s hat placed on top of a skull, and an Adolf Hitler T-shirt. The ceiling was covered in camouflage netting, and large Finnish flags covered the walls. Posters and magazines for feared skinhead groups were found in the lavatory, and a gas mask and hangman’s noose were mounted above the bar. A number of assault rifles – which, according to the Odins, were replicas – were also arranged on shelves.
A number of members say they believed Nazism was ‘not all bad’, and had ‘good points’ like a focus on ‘protecting the national culture’. Some also share White Supremacist views.
Ranta himself, speaking exclusively to MailOnline over the telephone from Spain, is unapologetic about his radical views. ‘The white population will be replaced by other races if we can’t change the current situation,’ he says. ‘Every race has good and bad features and that’s why all of them are important. Some races may have lower average IQ than us. ‘White Supremacists are welcome to join the Odins,'
You lawyers and your fine print.
The emergence of a so called hate group goes to show you how far the effects of Islamic extremism reach.
