  It didn't take me long to check into that nonprofit's spokesman. He has a long history of nasty rhetoric designed to discount legitimate concerns against big business.

  It's all about the money.

 Nope
:)...it belongs here.

  They are the ones pushing hard to tie the elf/alf groups to domestic terrorit financing by groups such as PETA, Humane Society and a concerned physician's group.

  These all go back to what the NSA is spying on and manufacturing evidence for prosecution, building to benign groups as associated with domestic terrorism.

Good thing the FBI is on the case, to root out lurking evildoers with suspected Humane Society links.

You can tell by the name, "Humane Society" that it's anti-American. They are getting so bold.

Go ahead and laugh. You see how easy it is when the network decides who to accuse of terrorist ties. It's no accident that the Berman PR and CCF have been building this case for the public through media propaganda.

These guys testify before Congress in the same capacity Bodansky did. When they're tied together, Rove still controls the terrorism/spying PR and it's now moved to serious domestic groups prosecution. In testimony, they have equated Humane Society donations as going to ELF/ALF terrorist acts...same as what they've done to others.

US has stolen thousands if not millions, of peoples' Zakat taxes since 911, well not so much after the first year, obviously, but just try to find an org that does humanitarian work in Palestine that has not been declared a terror organization, and will make you a person of even greater interest than you already were. Their "justification" for this is that none of them were willing to refuse aid to widows and orphans of suicide bombers.

And no one at all has mentioned that neither Red Cross nor United Way, nor any charity in the US refuses services to dependents of Americans who die committing crimes, or are in prison for them.

Not that a whole lot of charity or help of any kind gets to those people, but if they call United Way for example, and say, is there a food bank in my area, nobody says hey wait a minute, your husband was killed in the commission of an armed robbery, therefore you are ineligible for help from the food bank.

 That's the point I was referring to. Thank you. In all I find in researching, the circle always closes on an innocent compassionate effort from people that the government prosecutes.

  Most Americans will not admit this until they are the one being prosecuted for humanitarian purposes. Some never will.

  It's been happening and it's happening still.
