In early 1944 in front of the SS headquarters building in Warsaw, Polish soldiers assassinated an unrepentant Nazi mass murderer.

Weapons of Mass Destruction are nukes and chemical warfare agents. Machineguns are really just good tools to help you run out of ammunition quickly. The unjustified stigma attached to these typically forbidden tools is driven by the media and remains quite powerful.

In the person of George Lincoln Rockwell, we find the sad tale of a man whose undeniable charisma and dark drive inspired true passion in a small handful of zealous followers. His twisted influence persists to this day.

Though the IRA made peace with the British, Irish guerrilla fighters sometimes remained killers. In this case, a bar fight led to a death by a Makarov PM.
