German police have averted an attack by ultra-right militants who were amassing deadly weapons to carry out revenge full of horror against German institutions on an as-yet-undefined Day X.
More than 130 special-forces police in Germany searched 14 addresses in Berlin, Schleswig-Holstein, Baden-Württemberg, and Hesse on Wednesday tied to the extreme-right Berkserker Clan, according to the Berlin public prosecutors office.
Among the weapons police are said to have confiscated were firearms, bomb timers, ammunition, knives, spears, and devotional objects the group used to prepare for their attack.
Police say they also found narcotics and paraphernalia believed to be used by the group. Officials say the suspects were prepared to carry out an orchestrated armed uprising across multiple German states.

But if they are, there is November 8th-9th, which coincides with two historic events involving Nazis.
