Rewards Offered For Information About Eco-Terrorists





The FBI and a building advocacy group will offer monetary rewards for information leading to the arrest and conviction of eco-terrorists, especially those involved with the Earth Liberation Front (ELF). It was ELF activists who claimed responsibility for recent construction site fires in the state of Washington.

Authorities in the FBI's Seattle office and the Building Industry Association of Washington (BIAW) have posted $100,000 rewards to combat eco-terrorism, particularly ELF attacks. For more than a decade, ELF has claimed responsibility for dozens of arsons and eco-terror attacks that have caused upwards of $100 million in damages.

The FBI authorities and BIAW officials say they are concerned about the escalating severity of ELF's alleged activities. They fear future eco-terror attacks could result in injury or death.

"While ELF used to spike trees and sabotage logging equipment, they're now firebombing neighborhoods and burning down apartment complexes," BIAW president Lyle Fox said in a statement. "The ELF's increasingly brazen attacks on urban targets have BIAW and the FBI worried that it is only a matter of time before someone is hurt or killed by ELF terrorists."

The FBI considers ELF and other radical environmental activist groups the top domestic terrorist threats in the United States.

Legislation to curb the intimidation campaigns and terror tactics employed by animal rights fanatics to advance their agenda has been signed into law in Arizona and is being considered in Pennsylvania and Ohio. These bills contain provisions modeled after the Animal and Ecological Terrorism Act. The draft bill we prepared by the U.S. Sportsmen’s Alliance as part of a nationwide campaign to end the increasing threat of animal and eco-terrorism.
