After the agreement, the trial continues only for a third defendant, JE, for crimes once morest public health – for marijuana and other drugs that were seized in the farmhouse where the defendants intended to set up a “militia” – and possession of weapons, for which faces 5 years and eight months.
A manifesto for the creation of white “militias”
Sheltered in a farmhouse in La Pobla de Cérvoles (Lleida), William R. and Carlos A. fantasized regarding committing attacks like their idols Brendon Tarrant, who killed 51 people in two mosques in Christchurch (New Zealand), and Anders Breivik, author of the largest terrorist attack in Norwegian history, which left 77 dead. The two convicted Spaniards, who met on the internet, prepared a racist manifesto and spread their ideology through the instant messaging platform Telegram. The text, titled Iron Pills: a heroic life project, encouraged actions that would culminate in “a racial war” between whites and ethnic groups that they considered “inferior.” Their plan was to create small communities in rural areas, where they would subsist through drug trafficking. When the time came, they would take up arms to stop the supposed invasion of foreigners into Europe.
