"We
have to organize and become involved in well coordinated action
which will involve any means necessary to bring about complete
elimination of the conditions that exist ...... It takes action
to get action." -

December 12 : On behalf of all the animals being imprisoned in and around the campus of ucla, we took some action this Wednesday night. Sitting all alone and parked in a structure, was a ucla van. so we decided to inflict some pain oursevles. A little blood (paint) and some knife wounds ( flat tires ) should do the deed.
ENOUGH is enough UCLA - stop the torture, stop the PAIN. We will not rest until your vivisectors do.

December 4 : Mexican Leather Expo burned to the ground by Militias for the Rights of Animals. Read the communique here.
"Our words are no joke, we stated in the October communique that the next bomb would be really destructive, we do not lie; we laugh at the criticisms of mediocre people who full of feelings of inferiority said that the fake bombs were just false alarms and that we would not return again; they eat their words.
We likewise scoff at the absurd and groundless criticism of the communists, conservationists, traditional anarchists and others, whose old and authoritarian characters were made to see what they still won't account for; to move from words to actions shows that we are in a struggle to the death with the state and its speciesist lackeys; to demonstrate our vengeance with stones and fire, to strike and to be an individual in an informal organization is effective.
These actions will not stop, on the contrary they will grow..."

Please bear with us; the price of continued effectiveness has to occasionally be paid.
November 25: UCLA Vivisector Goran Lacan's Car Destroyed by Fire
Los Angeles, CA: In an anonymous communiqué received by the Press Office this week, Students and Workers for the Liberation of UCLA Primates claim to have burned an automobile belonging to primate vivisector Goran Lacan. UCLA confirms the destruction of two vehicles, but in deceptive and dishonest wording, their press release states the vehicles destroyed were not in front of Lacan's home and therefore were not his. University flaks also try to portray Lacan as a "former" primate vivisector, ignoring publications both this year and last in which he principally authored studies detailing the torture and murder of vervet monkeys and lemurs.

The North American Animal Liberation
Press Office (NAALPO) was founded to communicate the
actions, strategies, and philosophy of the animal
liberation movement to the media and the public.
Many of these actions are illegal under a current
societal structure that 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. Within these conditions, those in
the underground working for animal liberation
often cannot speak out directly. Nevertheless,
their actions and message is urgent and deserve
to be heard and understood.
Since animal liberation
actions either go unreported in the media or are
uncritically vilified as "violent" and "terrorist" with no attention paid to the suffering that industries
and individuals gratuitously inflict on animals,
NAALPO seeks to clarify the motivation and nature
of actions taken in defense of animals.
The Press Office also tries to provide a
historical, social, and philosophical context
for an objective understanding of the nature and
motivation of illegal direct actions taken on
behalf of captive animals. While the Animal Liberation Front, or ALF, is currently the most active liberation group, the Press Office will report on ANY act of animal liberation, and provide the press and general public with information on the actions and ideology behind them.
As our enemies have found we can reason like men, so now let us show them we can fight like men also. --Thomas Jefferson
