ELF website hacked?

Is this electronic warfare given the recent imprisonment for 21 years of an ELF activist and the US "green scare" or just poor taste?

2. That is not the website of the ELF, perhaps the .COM should have been a clue!
3. The ELF dont have and can't have an 'official' website, but try http://earth-liberation-front.org/
"DISCLAIMER: This web page does not purport to be an "official" organ of the Earth Liberation Front. Only those individuals, such as Daniel McGowan, that serve their prison sentences honorably, without snitching and publicly acknowledge their Earth Liberation Front ties, can make official comments or act as a spokesperson. The latest version of the North American ELF Press Office (NAELFPO), which is headquartered in Washington D.C., should be suspect. BEWARE of this or any other website claiming to be an "Official" ELF site and asks you to submit your communiques for publication! Ah, ha, ha... that's a good one! Don't allow yourself to be duped - think for yourself. The Earth Liberation Front has no leaders and any self-appointed "spokespersons" are, most likely, agent provocateurs."

ELF Press Office

The ELF Press Office is endorsed by two previous ELF press officers (who recieved anonymous communiques and refused to cooperate with the state/officials), as well as No Compromise and Bite Back Magazine, the latter also recieve anonymous communqiues. ( http://www.nocompromise.org & http://www.directaction.info)
In response to: The Earth Liberation Front has no leaders and any self-appointed "spokespersons" are, most likely, agent provocateurs."
You should probably read Burning Rage of a Dying Planet and Earth Liberation Front: 1997-2002, books released by previous press office, who both vocally support the actions, as did the press office itself, obviously. ELF spokespersons being agent provocateurs defines the strategy of provocateurs who try and destroy social movements.
Finally, the entire point of anonymous communiques is that they are untraceable - so even if the press office was infiltrated, they still wouldn't be able to track down the ELF activists. The clue is in the name "anonymous" communiques, those without a traceable sender.
As for the anti-ELF website you suggested, poor choice. Poor, poor choice.
@narchist
To note though...

Your communique will be released, as it is, with no spokespersons talking for you. So if you want a spokesperson, send it to the press office, if not, then send it to Bite Back.
To anyone interested, ELF actions of late (Mexico, Sweden, Australia & UK) have been sent to Bite Back, rather than the ELF press office. The ELF has evolved quite a bit, similar to the ALF, who's activists also rarely use press offices but rather Bite Back as well.
@narchist
this used to be a genuine website, but the domain lapsed and is now squatted

You can see a lot of environmentalist sites still link to it, not realising it is no longer valid.

Gregor Samsa
To avoid confusion ..
09.02.2009 19:00
The Gregor Samsa above is not the same Gregor Samsa (me!) who enjoyed baiting a Rueschite cultist whose name kept changing from Chris to Steve ;0)
Much as I liked the Kafkaesque moniker, I stopped using it because too many other people were using the same name: in particular, I was being confused with someone on a totally different site expressing opinions that I didn't want to be associated with.
Not that I have any problems whatsoever with the previous posting, it's just not mine! Nice to know there are a few other fans of giant bugs and the great Mr K :0)
Not Gregor Samsa anymore :0)
