  An update to urlLink my earlier post on animal rights terrorists, courtesy of the U.K.'s urlLink Guardian : A top adviser to Britain's two most powerful animal rights protest groups caused outrage last night by claiming that the assassination of scientists working in biomedical research would save millions of animals' lives.
To the fury of groups working with animals, Jerry Vlasak, a trauma surgeon and prominent figure in the anti-vivisection movement, told The Observer: 'I think violence is part of the struggle against oppression. If something bad happens to these people [animal researchers], it will discourage others. It is inevitable that violence will be used in the struggle and that it will be effective. ' Vlasak, who likens animal experimentation to the Nazis' treatment of the Jews , said he stood by his claim that: 'I don't think you'd have to kill too many [researchers]. I think for five lives, 10 lives, 15 human lives, we could save a million, 2 million, 10 million non-human lives.
As I said in my previous post on the subject: The philosophical underpinnings of animal rights terrorists are just as toxic and decrepit as al Qaeda's. &nbsp;Just as Islamic terrorists are motivated not by love of Islam, but rather by hatred of the West, animal rights terrorists are not motivated by love of animals, but rather by hatred of humans .
