		These "ecoterrorists" are being investigated by the FBI's counterterrorism division, which notes the emerging threat of "special-interest extremism" used by such groups as the Animal Liberation Front (ALF) and the Earth Liberation Front (ELF).
		Authorities yesterday had not ruled out the possibility ecoterrorists might be responsible for fires that damaged or destroyed 26 houses being built near a wetland area in Maryland.
		Ecoterrorists tend to be young, well-educated, college students interested in the environmental or animal rights movements, but frustrated by lack of progress, he said.

	Why treat ecoterrorists with kid gloves?
		Rather than condemn ecoterrorists as the thugs they are, some reporters and environmentalists treat them as do-gooders who perhaps get a bit carried away with a good cause.
		The goal of the ecoterrorists is not to engage the public in a debate about public policy, but to frighten and intimidate people into doing what the radicals want - i.e., give up SUVs, eschew meat-eating, refuse to buy furs.
		As I researched this article, I was shocked by the scores of ecoterrorist attacks that have taken place across the country.

		Neal Bonham, left, Bridget Lamp, center, and Lou Stubecki transplant new plants in front of the new Merrill Hall at the Center for Urban Horticulture on the University of Washington's Seattle campus on Tuesday.
		SEATTLE – When ecoterrorists firebombed the University of Washington's Center for Urban Horticulture nearly four years ago, they thought they were targeting a researcher who was genetically engineering trees.
		Biology professor Toby Bradshaw was simply studying the genetics of hybrid poplar trees that had been cross-pollinated – a method scientists have used for centuries to unlock basic clues to how plants grow.

		Ecoterrorists have been around a long time and they too have largely been ignored.
		Not only should Americans be more aware of the ecoterrorists' threat, we should take a hard look at the comparable objectives they share with external terrorists such as bin Laden's al Qaeda network.
		Inspired by the World Trade Center and Pentagon attacks, it will not be long before ecoterrorists and animal rights terrorists seek to demonstrate their capacity to wreak horror and death among American institutions and people.

	Grey goo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the pink goo worldview the spread of humanity is a catastrophe and space exploration opens up the possibility of the entire galaxy or the universe getting filled up with Pink Goo - the ultimate crime, something to be stopped at any cost.
		Green Goo is goo deliberately released, for example by ecoterrorists, in order to stop the spread of Pink Goo, either by sterilization or simply by digesting the pink goo.
		Some form of this, along with an antidote available to the selected few, has been suggested as a strategy for achieving zero population growth.

	[Imc-nh] OREGON WILDERNESS PLAN DEMONSTRATES BEST OF BUSH POLICY
		Smith has announced that to make this happen, he will attach a "rider" to a disaster relief or other "must pass" Senate bill, requiring that the Siskiyou area be logged immediately and replanted with thousands of timber trees, bypassing Nature's slow, inefficient, and unprofitable process of recovery.
		The rider will also stipulate that it "shall not be subject to judicial review by any court of the United States"--thus preventing ecoterrorists from using the courts to interfere with the health of the forestry industry.
		By stubbornly refusing to let burnt old-growth forests build jobs, ecoterrorists have made it increasingly difficult for the forestry industry to turn a profit from America's last few bits of nonproductive landscape.

		A Utah Association of Counties Internet web site dealing with the controversial RS 2477 rights-of-way issue was the target of ecoterrorists in early July and the county association has called on the Federal Bureau of Investigation to investigate the crime.
		The ecoterrorist tampering occurred in the early morning hours of July 9th, when the entire content of the site and replaced it with other files.
		Terrorism experts define "ecoterror" as any crime committed for the ostensible purpose of "defending nature." This particular ecoterrorist incident was quickly reported to the county association and the authentic page with all its files and links was quickly restored.

	Insight on the News: Ecoterrorism: An overlooked threat to the United States - Brief Article
		The perverted ideology-over-humanity beliefs that motivated the terrorist attacks on New York City and Washington are analogous to the hateful motivations of ecoterrorists operating today in the United States.
		However, we should have no doubt that property destruction is a violent, criminal act under the law and that loss of human life will be the eventual result of such acts of ecoterrorism.
		U.S. ecoterrorist acts are well-known and documented and should be given the same new awareness, focus and prosecution priorities as those terrorist attacks that awakened and shook the American psyche on Sept. 11.

	In US, a rise of violent environmental tactics - Arson and death threats have followed ecoterrorists' call for more use ...
		It had been decided (according to ALF) that "it was time that animal abusers had but a taste of the fear and anguish their victims suffer on a daily basis."
		As with many such other terrorists (including suicide bombers in the Middle East as well as those who attack abortion providers in this country), ecoterrorists may become more violent as they see their efforts frustrated by law enforcement crackdowns or by political administrations perceived as particularly unfriendly.
		Experts say this is a common reaction among radical religions and other small, extremist groups whose members have become zealots.

		We take the fact that ecoterrorists felt they had to destroy it as the highest compliment they could have paid to the effectiveness of this web site.
		We also know that it has been educational and enlightening to many members of environmental extremist groups who, after perusing it, realized that they were being mislead and deceived by their own organization.
		It is this growing credibility gap within their own ranks which led the ecoterrorists to take the radical step of destroying it.

	[ ] [ ] [ ] MOVIE 666
		With its portrait of vengeful trees and collapsing dams, Two Towers has presented us with some of the most overt and radically subversive images in regard to the natural environment ever seen in the mainstream multiplex.
		It is ironic, of course, that in today's world, the efforts of the pissed off trees and hobbits would quickly be branded as the work of ecoterrorists standing in the way of progress.
		Because although in cinema talking trees and hobbits are heroes, in real life silent trees and environmentalists mostly just stand in the way of new ski areas and timber sales and housing developments.

		An attack that damaged 22 automobiles, including 20 sport utility vehicles, at a Humble car dealership early Tuesday may have been the work of ecoterrorists, the dealership's managers said.
		While acknowledging that it is a possibility, police cautioned it would be premature to blame militant environmentalists, who have been linked to attacks on other dealerships and private owners of the popular vehicles elsewhere in the country.
		Although Houston police were investigating the incident as a case of criminal mischief, a department spokesman acknowledged that nothing can be ruled out until investigators find the people who caused the damage.

		Don Young (R-AK) was quoted as follows in the Anchorage Daily News: "Young warned against rushing to the conclusion that Middle Eastern terrorists were responsible.
		There's some possibility, he said that the attacks are linked to the protests against the World Trade Organization, another of which is scheduled for later this month in Washington D.C. "'If you watched what happened (at past protests) in Genoa, in Italy, and even in Seattle, there's some expertise in that field," Young said.
		"I'm not sure they're that dedicated, but ecoterrorists -- which are really based in Seattle -- there's a strong possibility that could be one of the groups'." If you want to tell Don Young to shut up, he's at 202 225-5765.

		However, FBI authorities and Building Industry Association officials say they are concerned about the growing escalation of ELF's alleged activities and fear someone may be hurt or killed in future ecoterrorist attacks.
		The Building Industry Association estimates ecoterrorists have caused nearly $8 million in property damage since 1996 in Washington state.

	CESNUR - "So Many Evil Things": Anti-Cult Terrorism via the Internet
		An ecoterrorist group targeting a transnational corporation, for instance, may cause comparatively little damage by blowing up one or more warehouses.
		In fact, in 1998, ecoterrorists targeting a transnational food corporation in Europe simply shipped to an Italian news agency a poisoned and potentially lethal Christmas cake manufactured by that corporation, claiming that many more had actually been poisoned and were on the shelves of unsuspecting stores.
		When caught, their defence was that they had, in fact, poisoned only the single cake sent to the news agency, without endangering anybody’s health since it was clearly marked as "poisoned" with plenty of warning labels.

	Outdoors; James A. Swan on Ecoterrorism on National Review Online (NRO)
		The Earth Liberation Front's l999 arson of the Vail Ski Lodge complex — an expression of "the burning rage of a dying planet" — is the most dramatic ecoterrorist action to date.
		In the last several years, ecoterrorists have been responsible for more than $40 million in damage to homes, ranches, research facilities, businesses, and equipment.
		If animal-rights and ecoterrorists are so nasty, why don't we hear more about them in the media, or about what is being done to curb them?
