Background
Podblanc is an Estonian-based video sharing website for white supremacist audiences. It was designed as an alternative to YouTube, which does not host racist and anti-Semitic material.
Themes
The website has over 1,000 channels, each maintained by a different user. The content includes combat handgun training, instructions for making explosives and videos of neo-Nazis assaulting and killing Orthodox Jews or other ethnic minorities.
Ownership
Podblanc is owned and maintained by Craig Cobb, an American citizen who lives in Estonia. Cobb is a former member of the World Church of the Creator, a White separatist movement that advocates a whites only religion.
Cobb states he intends to bring American and British Whites to White-dominated Eastern European countries such as Russia and Estonia because he believes the U.S. Government, which he claims is controlled by “international Jewry,” is too powerful to overthrow.
Scope
During business hours, between 100 and 200 registered users from the United States are logged on Podblanc while this figure nearly doubles at night.
Earlier this year, Keith Luke, 22, posted a video on Podblanc of himself shooting two immigrants two death and raping another. He credited Podblanc for shaping his views.
