So, people are now reacting to such things, since Al Qaeda issued that threat? Funny, that no one (except for perhaps the odd local paper or some localized activist group) said so much as one word, when US companies like Maxxam/Pacific Lumber used diesel-herbicide mix to ensure, that after clear-cutting a region nothing ever grows afterwards?
Or, that they flew with helicopters over forest areas, spraying napalm onto cut-down trees and remains of clear-cutting to start fires (and no, I'm not referring to Vietnam here, but the pacific north-west of the US of A...). (Both witnessed and described by Julia Butterfly Hill during her squatting Luna) Currently, the same is happening in Tasmania (Australia), where the remains of clear-cutting are burned using Napalm, too... However, no one really cares, unless the trigger "Al Qaeda" is used. It's almost like a Pawlowian reaction, that people start slobbering, as soon as they hear that "terrorist" bell ringing. But if "legitimate" companies do the same sh1t, next to no one says or does anything... This quote never fails to fit: "This... is sad. Very sad only!" Wiggling bare toes, ~*Txim Asawl*~
