Aims

The outspoken purpose of the organization is "to protect the ethnic Swedes and take back our country". Their long term political aims are Sweden's secession from the European Union, large scale repatriation of non-Swedish people from Sweden, to fight zionism, and in recent years also to create a "Greater Nordic Reich".

Tactics

Their main struggle is handing out leaflets about crimes committed by foreigners and immigrants in Sweden, arranging public rallies and training their members in martial art and other physical activities such as marches and paintball. Their camps in the Swedish woods have left some people to believe they are training for a civil war or a revolution, although all such claims have been publicly refuted by the organization. In November 2003 the Swedish Security Service raided homes of leading members, among them Klas Lund who was later sentenced to prison for illegally possessing a gun.
