March 7, 2002 -- NEARLY six years after the Earth Liberation Front set off its first firebomb in the United States, the feds may have gotten their first break in figuring out who runs this dangerous eco-terrorist group. In congressional testimony last month, Richard Berman, of the Center for Consumer Freedom, produced a tax return from the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). It turns out PETA isn't just funding anti-milk and anti-fur organizations.

I've been burned many times recently by posting something that was posted before. Despite the fact that I always search the headline. Hopefully I am using the SEARCH feature correctly. I never had a problem with using it before.

Nevertheless, here is the article.

I saw one of PETA's reps on O'Reilly a couple of weeks ago. She said that PETA did give ELF or ALF a check, but that it was for a nonviolent project. I'm sure a terrorist organization wouldn't lie to them about what the money is being used for! Also, wasn't it a PETA uppity-up who hoped that mad-cow disease would come to the U.S. so people would die and cows would not be eaten?

LOVE the way this is phrased ... Gee, I wonder what impediment has recently been removed so the investigation could proceed? ... :-)

I just took a quick look at the earth liberation front website and my only question is... Why aren't these people making little rocks out of big rocks in some penitentiary somewhere? What are they doing on the loose?

As for the donation to ELF, PETA President Ingrid Newkirk admits giving the money, but claims it was an honest mistake, that the money was supposed to go toward "public education about destruction of habitat."

Uh huh, sure. An HONEST little teenie weenie mistake.

I saw that same segment on O'Reilly and couldn't believe that PETA sent that woman out to represent them on national TV. PETA is obviously out in the weeds, but to be so out of it send a brownshirt like her to O'Reilly's show just shows you how far they've gone. She was a PETA kool-aid drinker through-and-through. Her demeanor was that of a cult member, and I don't doubt that most hard-core PETA members are indeed just that. Let's hope that these latest allegations put an end to this madness.

Those who love PETA can go buy the new BK PETA PEAT Moss non burger. Then your money for the PEAT Peat Moss non burger can help PETA fund ALF/ELF for more violence, eco terrorism and anti human actions.

Go to this link to see the PETA connections to the new vegie burger at BK: (Murderking link)

Wendy's is the next Rico/Je$$e type of extortion by your friendly PETA thugs!

What bothers me is that the ELFers pull off their raids with tremendous tactical precision, indicative of training and resourcing from some outside source of greater means than even PETA could bring to bear. Somewhere, hidden in the shadows, are the motivators and instigators. It is obvious that they are marxists bent on undermining the notion of private property, but just who they are remains a mystery...

Its not completely a mystery; just visit any local college including non-state colleges. There's plenty of leftist professors that are preaching this crap to the not-quite-adult members of society. Unfortunately, it will take these youths (youts) a few years to realize that the professors were full of it. Many will never learn. They are the Hitlery followers.

It shows the stupidy and bureaucratic bewilderment of the Office of Homeland Security (barf) that spends its time counting colors and doesn't even mention the ELF. The ELF should be targetted. Today.

The ELF / ALF terrorists are just another one of Clinton's legacy.

Isn't that great logic? Let's say ALF has accounts A B and C... A is for nonviolent projects, B is for violent projects, and C is for miscellaneous. The PETA donations go into account a, and then some money in account A(nonviolent) is freed up to go to account C (miscellaneous) and then some money from account C is freed up to transfer to account B (violent projects). It works beautifully. That way, Peta never gave any money that went for violent projects. simple isn't it?

SAVE THE TREES-KILL A BEAVER

Remove the castor and other glands and cook over wood coals or make beaverburger by grinding with added fat(trim from beef brisket works well}.The beautiful pelt is nice for yourself if fur prices are down.

We all have to do our part.
