Meet the Neo Nazi who Bombed London --- Threatened to Assassinate a Spice Girl
Over the course of 13 days in 1999, David Copeland set off three nail bombs in London. A British neo-Nazi, Copeland hoped that attacking minority communities would start a race war in England. Although he was quickly captured after the third and final attack, Copeland became perhaps even more twisted after he was arrested.
Not only did he show no remorse for his actions, but he also expressed a desire for more violence, and even though he was already in custody, he threatened to assassinate a Spice Girl. In recent years, Copeland has reportedly converted to Islam in prison in the hopes of "getting forgiveness" — but he tells his fellow inmates to call him "Saddam."

The 1999 London nail bombings were a series of bomb explosions in London, England. Over three successive weekends between 17 and 30 April 1999, homemade nail bombs were detonated respectively in Brixton in South London; at Brick Lane, Spitalfields, in the East End; and at The Admiral Duncan pub in Soho in the West End. Each bomb contained up to 1,500 4-inch (100 mm) nails, in holdalls that were left in public spaces. The bombs killed three people and injured 140 people, four of whom lost limbs.
On 2 May 1999, the Metropolitan Police Anti-Terrorist Branch charged 22-year-old David Copeland with murder. Copeland, who became known as the "London nail bomber", was a Neo-Nazi militant and a former member of two political groups, the British National Party and then the National Socialist Movement. The bombings were aimed at London's black, Bengali and LGBT communities. Copeland was convicted of murder in 2000 and given six life sentences.
At the pub bombing in Soho, Andrea Dykes, 27, four months pregnant with her first child, died along with her friends and hosts for the evening, Nik Moore, 31, and John Light, 32, who was to be the baby's godfather. Andrea's husband, Julian, whom she married in August 1997, was seriously injured. The four friends from Essex had met up in the Admiral Duncan to celebrate Andrea's pregnancy.
