"I knew Anton Long as a kid": Interview with Opfer 1218

The Order of Nine Angels (O9A) is one of the most controversial and misunderstood movements of modern occultism. Established in Western England during the 1960s, it blended neo nazi beliefs with Hermetic and pagan beliefs. This religion has been intertwined with multiple neo nazi networks and is known as a terrorist organization. There are a lot of rumors circulating about these people (especially pedophile rumors. which are true by the way), and I want to figure out what is actually true. I do not understand much about Order of the Nine Angels but hopefully through this interview, I (and the readers), who do not know much about this organization, will understand them a little better. Originally, I wanted to interview someone within the group or someone who used to be in it, but as expected, someone like that is hard to get a hold of. I was lucky enough to have found this guy through instagram though...

This interview is with someone who claims to have known Anton Long as a kid. He goes by Opfer 1218 and is the sole member of the black metal band Theratos. Anton Long (rumored to also be David Myatt) is a very prominent figure in O9A history.The person I interviewed confirmed that yes, Anton Long is David Myatt, the neo nazi who was involved in groups like Combat 18 and The National Socialist Movement. He was initiated into the group in 1973 and became it's grand master.

What period of time, or what years did you know Anton Long?

Opfer 1218: I met Anton Long when I was six years old (which was in 2001) and I've known him ever since then, though we have not remained close.

How did you meet him?

Opfer 1218: I met him because my grandmother is married to a freemason and when I was a child he wanted to teach me everything he knew about society and politics. He decided, with my agreement, to use his position to also teach me about the darker aspects of life and felt that Anton Long was the best person to teach me those things. So he got in contact with him.

What was your first impression?

Opfer 1218: He seemed like quite an ordinary man at first. He was quite inquisitive and wanted to get to know me and my family. The reason for this is that he wanted to figure out the best way to put me to trial so I could learn through practical experience. He became more and more ominous and the atmosphere was tense as my family realized they may have made a fatal error in underestimating him. He vowed to return after that first visit and said he was preparing something and these unexpected visits continued throughout the course of a year from not just him, but various other cult members. As a family we could never really be sure what he was planning and neither could anybody else for that matter (including those cult members).

Around what area did you live during these visits?

Opfter 1218: I lived and still live in Gibraltar, which is a small British overseas territory in Andalusia, Spain.

Did you ever have a conversation with him? What did you guys talk about? 

Opfer 1218: I had many conversations with him. Sometimes he was very nice, other times he was a true sadist. We talked about many things, life in general. In a way he was putting his own spin on a lot of the things my grandfather had taught me and he often made sure to do so in front of my grandparents so that he could use intimidation and coercion to overpower him in his own home. It was scary and heart-breaking at times to see I man I look up to being made to feel so pathetic.

How much did you know about the O9A when you knew him? Did he teach you about it?

Opfer 1218: I had heard about it from my grandfather but was told it was basically a psy-op (which is true). For example, many things that you can read in the literature about the O9A are sensationalized, such as physical challenges for members. Also, the grade rituals which are not the same for each person but are decided by Anton Long himself for the initiate. It's his subtle or obvious manipulation that dictates the course. Basically, when I first met him, at that young age, I became an initiate because that is how I came to learn about all the darkness of this world: through the lens of The Order of 9 Angels. 

Did he ever talk about committing violent acts?

Opfer 1218: He certainly did. He introduced me to the members of Combat 18 as well as members of the army. He also taught me a technique to gouge out a persons eyes and a couple of stabbing techniques. He was also delaying authorities at this time due to an investigation into a murder plot that he was implicated in. One instance that was particularly disturbing was when he forced me to stab a 16 year old initiate in the arm on camera, the idea being that it was an insight into the making of snuff films for us both. He also convinced me at one point that he was going to kill me not long after that, which simply led to me being force fed some meat which I was told would be my last supper and then being left in a basement for an undisclosed period of time under the impression I was not going to be rescued. Of course I was let out by my family once he allowed it. A jape, basically.

Did he ever mention anything about all the debate regarding his true identity?

Opfer 1218: Yes, the person I have been talking about this whole time is David Myatt, as I'm quite sure everyone knows by now. What he says about the name is that its a psudonym which can apply to any member. What it means is Ant-on-Long, like an ant in a maze being studied. He is going to be watching us as long as he's alive, and we are going to be watching him.

Did you ever see him react to what the O9A turned out to be; all the extremism, violence and pedophilia? Do you know what he thought about all of that?

Opfer 1218: The last time I met him in person was around two years ago. In the time between 2001 until then what he was up to was a mystery, but he did somehow manage to covertly organize a bizarre reuinion of sorts in an undisclosed location that included many different people. It was one of the most chaotic events I have ever attended and, of course, he was there to soak up the glory of the practical joke he had played on everybody. He is more or less indifferent to all morals, if he feels like doing it and knows he can get away with it, he will. The same goes for anyone else. And what he is up to now, as of yet anyway, is a mystery to me.

Do you know anything about him or have any personal experiences with him that others may not know about?

Opfer 1218: Essentially, what we are is a tradition passed down through generations. At this point the head is David Myatt. The rest of us who are really part of this are extensions of the Stockholm Syndrome inflicted on us by him. We are his cult of slaves and it is our inability not to give into one another that keeps us here. The will to power feeds every narcissist.

I am not accusing you of lying of course, but for the readers and the skeptics, is there any way you can confirm all this to be true?

Opfter 1218: I wish I could provide some solid evidence but all I can give is my word. If i was to name some of the people involved they would likely deny any knowledge and that's because Myatt's a very secretive man, even to those closest to him.
