POLITICAL ACTIVIST CRAIG ROSEBRAUGH RELEASES CONTROVERSIAL BOOK PROMOTING REVOLUTION AND POLITICAL VIOLENCE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE December 3, 2003

POLITICAL ACTIVIST CRAIG ROSEBRAUGH RELEASES CONTROVERSIAL BOOK PROMOTING REVOLUTION AND POLITICAL VIOLENCE

PORTLAND, OR – “The Logic of Political Violence: Lessons in Reform and Revolution,” was released today by Arissa Media Group in Portland. This 288-page book, with a cover image of the burning twin towers, discusses why political violence is necessary in a successful revolutionary struggle. Rosebraugh’s profound and well-researched conclusions advocate the necessity of a political and social revolution in the United States, using any means necessary.

From the introduction. “A political and social revolution is needed in the United States to destroy a system of governing that has proven itself unable to provide for the needs of its people. Furthermore, it is beyond necessary to rid the world of a political system that has demonstrated itself to be one of the greatest – if not the greatest – terrorist organizations in planetary history.”

A political activist since 1990 when he opposed the Gulf War, Rosebraugh is best known for his role as a spokesperson for the underground Earth Liberation Front (ELF). From 1997-2001, Rosebraugh received anonymous communiqués from the ELF, a militant environmental group that has caused over $100 million in damages to entities profiting off the destruction of the natural environment. In 2003 Rosebraugh co-formed Arissa, an effort to build a revolutionary movement in the United States of America.

Rosebraugh will be promoting his book in Portland, OR on Friday, December 12 at Laughing Horse Books (3652 S.E. Division Street) beginning at 7:00pm.

“The Logic of Political Violence: Lessons in Reform and Revolution” by Craig Rosebraugh is available for $17.95 (+$2.00 shipping) from Arissa Media Group, P.O. Box 6058, Portland, OR 97228.

From a book listed at Amazon.com, Daniel Glick, "Powder Burn: Arson, Money and Mystery on Vail Mountain," I found the following references, suggesting that this SOB is a violent Greenie or a member of ELF. Extracts from an Amazon search follow:

1. on Page 100:
"... an Ai izona prison while fin- ishing a fifty-seven-month sentence for aiding the - orching of a Michigan animal lab. Craig Rosebraugh, the Portland, Oregon-based mouthpiece for the "Liberation Collective"; and Katie Fedor, a Minneapolis-based spokesperson for ALF "actions," also drew attention ..."
2. on Page 133:
"... lifts? They just got more sympathy for VA." In Portland, Oregon, inside the offices of the Liberation Collective, then twenty-six-year-old Craig Rosebraugh knew the feds would soon be after ..."
3. on Page 215:
"... this party started." Damage was estimated at half a million dollars. In response, the feds started bearing down harder on Craig Rosebraugh, the vegan baker from Portland who brazenly passed on the ELF's commu- niqués to the press. Since June 1997, Rosebraugh ..."
4. from Back Matter:
"... the FBI was trum- peting its arrests of the Long Island teenagers and the Phoenix arsonist, for- mer ELF spokesman Craig Rosebraugh appeared under subpoena. He didn't exactly cooperate. Rosebraugh invoked his Fifth Amendment rights against self-incrimination more than fifty times, and ..."
5. from Index:
"... 133 Rocky Mountain Animal Defense (RMAD), 138, 208, 218 Romer, Gov. Roy, 129 Roosevelt, President FDR,12 Roosevelt, President Theodore, 229 Rosebraugh, Craig,100,133-134,215 Rosmarino, Nicole, 136-139, 2o8, 218 Rumors, 37,191, 199 Ruthie's Run, 12 Ryman, Chris, 152 Sackbauer, Rick, 116 Saddle Ridge, 15o ..."

Yes, Mr. Rosebraugh has become quite the little capitalist lately. His mommy and daddy bought him an old house so he can play restaurant.

Another Marxist wannabe.

He is destined for Propositon 223 or the Rule of 308 IMHO if he proceeds as he writes. Sadly, most of his ilk consider themselves to "cerebral" to get their own hands dirty and rely instead on convinving young men and women (like that poor idiot girl that went to Israel to try and stand between palestinian terrorists and the IDF).

Amazing, that in a time of war, such blatant seditious sappers are allowed within the perimeter.

I trust he will be perfectly understanding if some dissenter bumps him off. After all, it is just politics - the ends justify the means. Nothing personal or hateful, you know.

Sounds like a socialist. Not the government's responsibility to provide for our needs.
