ELF website says car dealer vandalism was eco-saboteurs

The Earth Liberation Front press office has posted news of this week's vandalism at a Northeast Portland auto dealership, saying the attack appears to be the work of eco-saboteurs. As many as 15 vehicles -- most of them Hummers -- were damaged in the incident. But so far, the vandals who poured acid on the vehicles at Vic Alfonso Cadillac Hummer have yet to claim responsibility. Typically in such an attack, underground saboteurs strike out at enterprises they accuse of profiting from despoiling the natural world, such as auto dealerships that sell large sport utility vehicles and trucks that produce more air pollution than smaller cars. They then send a message to the Earth Liberation Front press office, which publishes the so-called "communiques." Sometimes, vandals tag the scene of the crime with "ELF" or other graffiti...Oregonian
