Neo-Nazi Telegram Channel Continues Doxing FDA, CDC Officials
(New York, N.Y.) — The Counter Extremism Project (CEP) reports weekly on the
methods used by extremists to exploit the Internet and social media platforms
to recruit followers and incite violence. This week, CEP researchers found a
neo-Nazi Telegram channel being used to dox members of the Food and Drug
Administration’s (FDA) Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory
Committee and CDC director Rochelle Walensky. Telegram has not taken down the
channel.
Also on Telegram, a neo-Nazi channel posted thousands of files, including
instructions for making homemade explosives. On November 15, multiple websites
released the 22nd edition of the pro-ISIS web magazineVoice of Hind. There was
also a video released by the pro-ISIS propaganda group Al-Murhifat Media
celebrating the suicide bombing attack near the Ugandan parliament. CEP located
a YouTube channel that advertised a pro-ISIS propaganda website. Finally, a
white supremacist Telegram personality requested Monero cryptocurrency
donations on the platform.
Telegram Declines to Remove Neo-Nazi Channel Spreading Doxes of FDA and CDC
Personnel
On November 16, a neo-Nazi accelerationist Telegram channel posted what it
alleged to be home or work addresses of members of the Food and Drug
Administration’s (FDA) Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory
Committee and the alleged home address of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC)
director Rochelle Walensky and the alleged address of her synagogue. Both doxes
contained information previously posted on Telegram. At least nine other
channels shared the same dox information.
The doxes are directly related to the CDC’s recommendation that children aged
5 to 11 be afforded access to the pediatric Pfizer-BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine.
Multiple white supremacist and neo-Nazi Telegram channels have alleged that
Covid vaccines kill the recipients, especially children, and view the vaccines
as part of an anti-white plot perpetrated by Jews. The channel that posted the
dox is part of a network of neo-Nazi accelerationist Telegram channels that
advocate violence against law enforcement, Jews, Muslims, immigrants, people of
color, LGBT people, and others. The network endorses the work ofJames Mason
<[link removed]>, neo-Nazism, and in
some cases, the cultic group the Order of Nine Angles
<[link removed]>.
Neo-Nazi Telegram Channel That Posted Large Quantity of Bomb Making and
Firearm Modification Instructions Removed From Telegram
Telegram removed a channel that posted thousands of files, including
instructions for making homemade explosives and bomb components, modifying
firearms to fire in a fully automatic mode, 3D firearms printing instructions,
and similar manuals that could be used to make weapons. The channel began
sharing files on November 14 and was removed by Telegram by November 17. Links
to the channel were shared by at least nine neo-Nazi Telegram channels that
endorse violence.

individuals with no law enforcement or national security affiliation. The same
article offered advice on committing acts of murder, including target
selection, counter-surveillance, and forensics. Another article, directed
towardsISIS <[link removed]> fighters in
Afghanistan <[link removed]>,
congratulated the terrorist group for attacking the Sardar Mohammad Daud Khan

Western-supported governments because they claim to be spiritually righteous
but are hypocrites.

<[link removed]> stated that the Taliban
had bowed to the U.S. by negotiating with them. Another report, allegedly
written by an ISIS supporter inBangladesh
<[link removed]>, accused Hindus of
provoking sectarian tension in October 2021 and condemned secularism and the
Bangladeshi and Indian governments. An article supposedly written by an ISIS

criticized the economic and social conditions of the island and contrasted them
with the supposed utopia of the ISIS caliphate.
Links to the web magazine were spread on Hoop, Telegram, and RocketChat. The
magazine was also located on five other websites. Approximately 24 hours later
the web magazine was still available on four websites: the Internet Archive,
File.Fm, Tlgur.com, Top4Top, and Mediafire. The files were removed from the
Internet Archive after CEP reported them.
Pro-ISIS Video Celebrating Uganda Bombings Located on Multiple Websites
On November 17, the pro-ISIS propaganda group Al-Murhifat Media released a
video celebrating ISIS’s November 16 suicide bombing attacks near the Ugandan
parliament and a police station in the capital of Kampala. Three civilians and
three suicide bombers were killed in both attacks, and over 30 people were
injured. The video contained publicly available video footage from the attack
and stated that Uganda had sent troops to fight ISIS-aligned forces in Congo.

ISIS Propaganda Website Advertised on YouTube
On November 18, CEP researchers located a channel on YouTube that advertised a
pro-ISIS propaganda website in its display name. The account did not have any
public videos uploaded. The channel was created on November 12, 2021 and had
ten subscribers six days later. The display name separated the website name
from the domain suffix with spaces before and after the period. The website
contains ISIS propaganda videos, Amaq news updates, and the terrorist group’s
weekly newsletter.

has previously advertised hats, sunglasses, shirts, flags, and banners with
