Dirty Greek - "Ecoterrorism" a possible motive in D.C. area fires
  Culture Critique : "Ecoterrorism" a possible motive in D.C. area fires
You are NOT on the DirtyGreek.Org homepage. Please CLICK HERE to go there.

Read this carefully:
"Investigators combed through the rubble of dozens of torched houses Tuesday looking for more evidence of arson in a posh subdivision under construction near a nature preserve. The FBI said it would look into ecoterrorism as a possible motive.
Ok, fair enough. Why are they looking into "ecoterrorism?"
"Environmental and community groups tried to block the development in a lawsuit last year that claimed it would hurt one of the nation’s last undisturbed magnolia bogs.
Well, then, are you looking into "community group terrorism" as well? I hear those "families" are often just fronts for islamic militants.

Also interesting:
"More than 20 federal, local and state investigators searched for forensic evidence Tuesday, Taylor said. He refused to say what led investigators to conclude it was arson.
Hrm.
"The Sierra Club issued a statement Monday saying it “strongly condemns all acts of violence in the name of the environment.”

In recent years, radical environmentalists have set fires at luxury housing developments under construction in San Diego and Detroit’s outer suburbs and at a resort in Vail, Colo. The Earth Liberation Front has also claimed responsibility for fires at lumberyards and sport-utility vehicle dealerships.
Well, then! If it's happened in Detroit and San Diego, then it was probably those crazy hippies who did it in D.C. too!

I'm not saying whether it was or wasn't "environmental extremists" who committed these crimes. I don't know, but apparently the investigators don't either. However, I think that they're making a huge jump in concluding that these fires had anything to do with environmentalists.
