“FBI Papers Show Terror Inquiries Into PETA; Other Groups Tracked”

By Spencer S. Hsu
Washington Post Staff Writer

Tuesday, December 20, 2005

FBI counterterrorism investigators are monitoring domestic U.S. advocacy groups engaged in antiwar, environmental, civil rights and other causes, the American Civil Liberties Union charged yesterday as it released new FBI records that it said detail the extent of the activity.

The documents, disclosed as part of a lawsuit that challenges FBI treatment of groups that planned demonstrations at last year’s political conventions, show the bureau has opened a preliminary terrorism investigation into People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, the well-known animal rights group based in Norfolk.

The papers offer no proof of PETA’s involvement in illegal activity. But more than 100 pages of heavily censored FBI files show the agency used secret informants and tracked the group’s events for years, including an animal rights conference in Washington in July 2000, a community meeting at an Indiana college in spring 2003 and a planned August 2004 protest of a celebrity fur endorser.

Thanks Horatio,

Keep that stuff coming. Thanks for getting the word out. You know I always wondered about those PETA people. What’s up with their ‘animal hugging’ agenda anyway? The Bible clearly delineates man’s dominion over animals and (what was it in Genesis?) all the creepy crawling things?

Clearly these PETA hacks must be up to something insidious. Think if they got control of the zoo population, which they would if they could. Maybe there’s more to their anti-zoo agenda than ‘animal welfare.’ Think of it: combine the force of the the Arabs’ dirty bombs with the ferocity of an escaped Bengal tiger or a Diane Fossey type silver-back gorilla; and, well it’s just common sense isn’t it? They should have animal control officials at the ready at every location ‘W’ sets foot. That’s just ‘National Security 0101.’

And if it means raiding PETA offices and making examples of their kingpins, ‘so be it’ I say. We can’t afford insurrection disguised as ‘rightful protest.’ This has gone far enough.

And you know, come to think of it, I have never seen a suicide bomber wearing fur of any kind. More than coincidence I think. We need to round up these bastards. Thank God Hunter Thompson took himself out; but no such luck with this lot. They’re on the side of the beasts, and that’s frightening enough for retaliation.

God Bless America,
