BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- Prosecutors from three south-central Indiana counties asked the public for help combating a recent wave of fires they believe were set by eco-terrorists.

Officials from Monroe, Morgan and Lawrence counties said Monday at a joint news conference they believe radical environmental groups are responsible for two home arsons at Lake Monroe and a fire that destroyed a truck at a Bloomington poultry plant.

A small batch of them got arrested in Somerset County, NJ last week on the grounds of Huntington Life Sciences-one of their favorite targets. All college-age, upper middle class kids-late teens.

They apparently didn't know the place was being watched , and they seem to have "forgotten" there was a restraining order against their organization.

Huntington uses animals in research, and had had break-ins,arsons,vandalism, and rowdy demonstrations.

It's a sure bet that they are coming from Indiana University's Bloomington campus (in Monroe county), a veritable breeding ground for eco-nuts.

Simple solution, sub poena the mailing lists of these organisations....charge every donor with conspiracy to commit criminal mischief.

No money, no terrorists.
