Two members of a new white supremacist group in Minnesota discussed killing former associates in the neo-Nazi National Socialist Movement (NSM) and using homemade napalm in a truck bomb attack on the Mexican consulate in St. Paul, newly released court documents say.

Joseph Benjamin Thomas, 42, of Mendota Heights, Minn., and Samuel James Johnson, 31, of Austin, Minn., both former NSM members, were involved in the plot, an FBI affidavit says.

The FBI investigation of the pair began in January 2010 and involved the use of a tracking device secretly placed on Thomas鈥� car on Aug. 29, 2011, allowing agents to track his travels and identify potential co-conspirators. On Jan. 23 of this year, when the U.S. Supreme Court ruled law enforcement officers must obtain search warrants to plant GPS tracking devices on suspects鈥� vehicles, the FBI sought and obtained court authorization to continue monitoring Thomas vehicle, the affidavit says.

were arrested in April on federal drug and firearms charges and have not been charged with any terrorism-related crimes. Prior to the planned May 1 attack on the Mexican consulate in St. Paul, Minn., officials there were notified of the potential threat and increased security, according to a news report today by .

鈥淓xpressions of hate are the ones that motivated the alleged plotter," Ana Luisa Fajer, the Mexican consul based in St. Paul told The AP. 鈥淭hese things exist, but we definitely think it's an isolated voice here.鈥�

The consulate was targeted after Thomas and Johnson, who were both members of the , broke away from that neo-Nazi organization in April 2011 and started a new spin-off organization identified in other court documents as the Aryan Liberation Movement (ALM). The new group was to have 鈥渕ilitant, funding, propaganda and political wings.鈥� While the new leaders hoped to recruit other white supremacists to take part in 鈥渁cts of violence against minority individuals or members of the United States government,鈥� they also discussed 鈥渓one wolf鈥� acts of terrorism, the affidavit says.

The group intended to fund its acquisition of weapons through the sale of cocaine, marijuana and methamphetamine, other court documents say.

鈥淚n furtherance of disassociating from NSM, Thomas suggested 鈥榙ispatching鈥� (defined by Thomas and Johnson as killing) existing members of NSM. Thomas suggested building pipe bombs for that purpose,鈥� the FBI affidavit says.

The FBI, using an undercover agent and a confidential informant, monitored meetings where Thomas detailed a plan to steal a pickup truck, load it with one or more 55-gallon barrels filled with homemade napalm 鈥� a mixture of gas, oil and Styrofoam 鈥� and 鈥渄rive the vehicle into the Mexican consulate in St. Paul, Minn., on the eve of May 1, 2012,鈥� the affidavit said.

The conspirators hoped the mixture would spill before they ignited it with a road flare and fled, the document says.

Thomas chose May 1 鈥渂ecause it is a communist holiday and a day Hispanic immigrants walk out on their U.S. employers,鈥� the affidavit says. He chose the Mexican Consulate 鈥渂ecause of his white supremacy ideology and belief that the action will manifest national awareness and debate on immigration amnesty issues in advance of the 2012 United States presidential election,鈥� the affidavit adds.

The undercover agent and informant 鈥減articipated in multiple reconnaissance operations with Thomas to prepare for the plot, including planning meetings, target surveillance, scouting for storage property, unused or 鈥榗lean鈥� cell phones and barrels,鈥� it says.

Last December, Thomas was observed 鈥渃onducting foot surveillance at the Mexican Consulate, including trying to open an exterior door and entering the building,鈥� the affidavit adds.

Thomas and a 鈥渨hite supremacy associate,鈥� identified in the court document as Jason Budnick, 21, also visited 鈥渢wo socially and politically left wing-oriented bookstores in an effort to identify targets for action,鈥� it says. Thomas previously had discussed having a member of his group become a volunteer at the bookstore to obtain access to names and addresses of its customers. Thomas suggested how 鈥渟implistic鈥� it would be to throw a Molotov cocktail at patrons in the bookstore.

In June 2011, after officers of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security visited Thomas鈥� home, apparently unaware of the FBI investigation, he 鈥渞emoved his computer hard drive and destroyed it in a microwave to eliminate any incriminating information,鈥� the affidavit says. He also destroyed a notebook in which he kept license plate number of vehicles he observed with bumper stickers supporting President Obama.
