Why? National Action, NS113, and Scottish Dawn, (UK far right terrorist organisations) all had female membership and leadership.

They wouldn't also have long or green hair.

But to your specific point were the females also foot soldiers? Not, do you know of an example, but was it somewhat common?

This seems to be a more left wing thing.

What a weird thing to say. Yes, some of them had long hair; some of them had dyed hair.

It was a known tactic of National Action to recruit as many women as they could, because those women would then go on to recruit a lot of men.

They had enough women members to run a "Miss Hitler" beauty pageant.

One of the winners went on to become part of the National Action leadership: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/national-action-...
