A full page ad ran in the New York Times this Thursday that demonstrates the Humane Society's ties to 'terrorist' groups. The ad was sponsored by the Center for Consumer Freedom (CCF) that represents the fast food and dairy industries and has spoke out against the Mothers AgainstDrunk Driving (because CCF represents the alcohol industry too).
For those of you who may not be hip to the flow charts, let me explain. The ad shows the Vice President of the Humane Society speaking at a fundraiser for the Humane League. The Humane League has members from the group "Hugs for Puppies" which has members from SHAC Philly. SHAC Philly has members from SHAC USA and six SHAC USA members has been convicted under the Animal Enterprise Protection Act for running a website against a laboratory that performs unnecessarily cruel tests on animals.
The ad is rather frightening because it proves that groups like the CCF are not only interested in stopping highly effective and 'radical' groups like the Animal Liberation Front, they also want to put an end to sweet animal loving groups like the Humane Society!
If we wanted it would be possible to connect the CCF to terrorism in a simple flow chart as well. The CCF is funded by Monsanto > Monsanto bought G.D. Searle & Co when their CEO was Donald Rumsfeld > Rumsfeld (just today) was officially linked to torture that was deemed illegal the U.S. law and the Geneva Conventions.
That seemed pretty easy. Maybe flow charts aren't a good way to 'prove' a connection.
