Neo-Nazis attempt to infiltrate the Australian Defense Force
- Extremists trying to join the Australian Defense Force
- Members want military training to enhance skills
- Defense has strengthened its recruitment process
Neo-Nazis are among the extremists attempting to join the Australian Defense Force or recruit members to their cause.
The ADF, together with Australia’s Security Intelligence Organization (ASIO) has identified individuals with “ideologically motivated extremism” within its ranks.
Several have tried to join the military, while others have tried to infiltrate it through other means and groom members who are already serving their country.
Defense sources explained that the extremists hope to receive military training to enhance their skills Herald Sun reported.
The reason for increasing their skills is not clear, but the overall plan to infiltrate the defense force is to further a destabilizing agenda.
Defense confirmed it is working closely with ASIO to identify counter-threats to Australian security.

Defense Force sources explained that the plot is being hatched so members can receive military training to enhance their skills (a common sight at the SAS barracks in Swanbourne, Western Australia)
“There is no place for unlawful or inappropriate association with groups or organizations engaged in advocacy for extremist ideology, extremist views or criminal activity within the Australian Defense Force,” Defense said in a statement.
‘Defence works closely with law enforcement and intelligence services to identify and counter threats to Defense and Defense personnel related to ideologically motivated extremism.’
Defense has not identified the number of people with extremist views who are attempting to join the military, nor has it shared those within the ranks who are no longer fit for service under the parameters of the extremist ideology.
However, the ADF has strengthened their recruitment screening processes, including sharing information with ASIO to ensure their testing meets the correct standards.
“Defence investigates and takes action when it is determined that personnel may be involved in unlawful or inappropriate activities,” Defense said.
“This may include referring investigations to law enforcement and national security agencies.”
At least half of ASIO’s priority onshore files are linked to the far-right nationalist threat, according to parliamentary hearings.
The other half of the Homeland Security Service’s priority onshore cases involve religiously motivated extremism and terrorism.
Some former ADF members use social media to promote extreme conspiracies and encourage Australians to fight against state-sanctioned public injustices.
A former army officer claimed in a video shared online that state biometrics are intended to enslave the public and expose truthful “patriots.”

In another video on the same platform, another former infantry soldier said there is a government plan around mRNA vaccines by May 2024.
He also alleged that the government was behind an existing secret genetic engineering program created by an AI-controlled army of “super soldiers” – like those in the Hollywood sci-fi action film franchise Universal Soldier.
Extremism in Australia has been linked to conspiracies about the Covid pandemic, right-wing nationalists, supremacists and the anti-authority group of sovereign citizens.
