Opening paragraph from the New York Times article on the Earth Liberation Front, eco-terrorists, who burned three new homes north of Seattle today:

For people who are anti-sprawl activists — or have baser motives — a new-built house sitting empty in a previously rural area evidently makes a ripe target for an attack by fire.

Consider also the article's headline "House Fires With a Message in the Northwest." Yes, think of it as a bonus. Not just a house fire . . . a house fire with a message!

Hell, at least OBL and TM both freely admit what they are. These jokes pretend they're fighting for a cause when in reality they're just another bunch of criminals. I'd say they're sligthly worse but that's just me...
