Serves as a news outlet and propaganda machine for such domestic terrorist groups as the Animal Liberation Front (ALF)
Publishes communiqués received from ALF detailing bomb and death threats
Established in 2004 to “communicate
the actions, strategies, and philosophy of the animal liberation
movement to the media and the public,” the North American Animal
Liberation Press Office (NAALPO) acts as an information
clearinghouse and propaganda machine for the secretive Animal
Liberation Front (ALF), detailing and glorifying the
philosophies, strategies, and destructive deeds of ALF's mostly
anonymous activists.
At the forefront of NAALPO's agenda is the complete “liberation”
of animals from the meat, fur, dairy, pharmaceutical-testing, and
entertainment (e.g., circus and zoo) industries—all of which are,
by the organization's reckoning, among the “myriad monstrous
atrocities” inherent to a profit-driven “corporate
society” that routinely engages in the mass “murder” of
animals. The deadliest enemy
of animal rights, according to NAALPO press officer Jason Miller, is
“the sh*t-laden toilet of the speciesist capitalism system,” which Miller desires to “smash” with a proverbial “sledgehammer” into
“a million shards of porcelain.” Capitalist society, NAALPO
elaborates,
egregiously “fails to recognize the rights of non-human animals to
live free of suffering, but validates and promotes the 'right' of
industries to do whatever they want to animals for profit or
research.”
NAALPO likens
contemporary ALF activists to “the U.S. Underground Railroad
movement, which helped fugitive human slaves reach free states and
Canada in the 1800s”; to “the freedom fighters in Nazi Germany
who liberated war prisoners and Holocaust victims and destroyed
[Nazi] equipment”; to those who “used and supported violence in the
fight for liberation in [apartheid-era] South Africa”; and to
jihadists engaged in “the current struggle by Palestinians against
their Israeli oppressors.”
More than once, NAALPO
officials have advocated the use of physical violence as an
appropriate weapon in the war for animal liberation. For example,
NAALPO co-founder Jerry
Vlasak says that “violence
in our movement … can be an effective” and “morally acceptable”
strategy. Similarly, NAALPO press officer Jason Miller says:
“Destruction of property, equipment, buildings, machinery,
laboratories, and virtually any inanimate human construct or
'resource' used in the exploitation, oppression, maiming, raping, or
murder of human animals, other animals, or the Earth is not violence.
It may be illegal under a system that fetishizes property and
profits, but it is not unethical. In fact, in many cases it is the
right thing to do.”
In January 2011, the Colorado-based
animal-rights activist Walter Bond became NAALPO's national press
officer. Just a month later, however, Bond was sentenced to five
years in prison for an arson conviction; nine months earlier, he had
burned down the Sheepskin Factory in Glendale, Colorado, a business
that sold pelts, furs and other animal-based products. At his
sentencing on February 11, 2011, an unrepentant Bond told
the court: “I am not sorry for anything I have done. Nor am I
frightened by this court's authority. Because any system of law that
values the rights of the oppressor over the downtrodden is an unjust
system.” Denouncing,
further, “a society that values money over life,” Bond called it
“an honor to be a prisoner of war, the war against inter-species
slavery and objectification!” And in remarks directed specifically
to the owner of the Sheepskin Factory, Bond, vowing to “never
willingly pay you one dollar” in restitution, thundered: “I hope
your business fails and you choke to death on every penny you profit
from animal murder! I hope you choke on it and burn in hell!”
NAALPO seeks to promote its radical views regarding animal liberation via its website, where the organization regularly posts
press
releases and ALF “communiqués”
as well as a monthly newsletter.
