The activists have left several banners and have stained with red paint the facilities of this farm, which has recently been awarded by the goverment for its “environmental effort”.

THE ALF TARGETS MAX MARA DURING FASHION WEEK.

20th February, Lombardy North Italy.

ENGLISH (translation):

“February 20 in Milan began the fashion week that will see on the catwalks, among others, the Max Mara group one of the few brands that has not yet given up fur despite years of protests by animal rights activists. A worldwide campaign has been launched these days by the fur free e alliance:

https://www.furfreealliance.com/animal-protection-organizations-worldwide-target-max-mara-over-use-of-fur/

The group’s top management remains anchored to their ideas that clearly do not take into consideration the suffering of the animals they continue to want to exploit to make their inserts (mink and fox gloves, cuffs and hoods). Tonight we went to one of their stores to remind them that beauty is never cruel and that their money is soiled with the blood of animals that are skinned without any compassion on their part when by now there are so many high fashion brands that have renounced such slaughter by replacing real fur with synthetic fur. Why do you Max Mara continue to want to murder our brothers to steal the fur that belongs only to them??!

We daubed their windows with writing and paint to remind them that
FASHION MAKES YOU BEAUTIFUL AS LONG AS IT IS NOT CRUEL!
THE ALF IS WATCHING AND THERE IS NO PLACE TO HIDE.

“Il 20 febbraio a Milano è iniziata la fashion week che vedrà sulle passerelle sfilare, tra gli altri, il gruppo Max Mara uno dei pochi brand che non ha ancora rinunciato alle pellicce nonostante anni di proteste da parte degli animalisti. In questi giorni è stata lanciata una campagna a livello mondiale da parte della fur free e alliance:

https://www.furfreealliance.com/animal-protection-organizations-worldwide-target-max-mara-over-use-of-fur/

I vertici del gruppo restano ancorati alle loro idee che, evidentemente, non tengono in considerazione la sofferenza degli animali che continuano a voler sfruttare per confezionare i loro inserti (guanti, polsini e cappucci in visone e in volpe). Stanotte ci siamo recati presso uno dei loro negozi, per ricordargli che la bellezza non è mai crudele e che i loro soldi sono sporchi del sangue degli animali che vengono scuoiati senza alcuna compassione da parte loro quando oramai sono tantissimi i brand di alta moda che hanno rinunciato a tale scempio sostituendo la pelliccia vera con quella sintetica. Perché Max Mara tu continui a volere assassinare i nostri fratelli per rubare la pelliccia che appartiene solo a loro???

Abbiamo imbrattato le loro vetrine con scritte e vernice per ricordare che
LA MODA TI FA BELLA A PATTO CHE NON SIA CRUDELE!
THE ALF IS WATCHING AND THERE IS NO PLACE TO HIDE.

THE ALF VISITS JACINTA ALLAN’S OFFICE (AGAIN) IN DEFENCE OF THE NATIVE WATERBIRDS AND IN SOLIDARITY WITH PALESTINE.

19th February, Victoria Australia.

Received anonymously via email: 


“Last year the state of Victoria in so-called Australia held a public inquiry into duck shooting. The results of that inquiry saw a recommendation to ban duck shooting in Victoria given a majority vote for the ban. On the 29/01/2024, Jacinta Allan went against her own party’s recommendation and has allowed this cowardice “sport” to go ahead. Following the decision, Jacinta Allan went into hiding and has not yet made a statement. Just some little info on Jacinta, she personally supports duck shooting and her husband Yorick Piper, has been seen in photographs with Field and Game representatives.

Fortunately, Jacinta Allan cannot hide from the A.L.F and we are here to show her AGAIN just what happens when you let personal factors influence political decisions that go against the people’s wishes. Two weeks ago, we visited Jacinta Allen’s office with bricks – now we have returned with hammers, spray cans and more determination!

This time it’s personal. Hunters and their political affiliates will continue to be hunted. We will see your pals on the wetlands.

The Labour government that Jacinta represents has not only sentenced native waterbirds to death but is also complicit in the ongoing genocide in Palestine. They continue to supply Israel with arms to carry out their vile acts. This action was taken for the native waterbirds but also for the lives that have been displaced and taken by the IDF. From the river to the sea.

We acknowledge that this action took place on the land of the Dja Dja Wurrung and Taungurung people. We stand in solidarity with First Nations people in their fight against colonialism.

Jacinta’s office is located at 140 Mollison Street, Bendigo East. Feel free to pay her a visit

HELP SAVE LEONARD PELTIERS EYESIGHT

Leonard Peltier is a political prisoner who has been incarcerated for 48 years. 

Leonard is 79 years old and the prison is neglecting his health. Leonard is in need of immediate medical treatment for the loss of his eyesight.

”Leonard Peltier has recently experienced a significant loss of vision which has required him to implore the help of fellow inmates to do basic things like dialing phone numbers for him to make calls, help type emails, and even help assist him getting around, as he cannot see well enough to walk on his own…”

You can help Leonard by making phone calls and demanding that Leonard get his medical treatment. See script (in image) and websites for more info:

IN SOLIDARITY

URGENT! SINDRE HAS A NEW ADDRESS AND NEEDS LETTERS OF SUPPORT.

Unfortunately, Sindre has not received any of the letters that have been sent to him. We do not know if this is due to the centre withholding letters, but he still needs love and support.

Sindre’s support team is therefore changing the address. If you want to write letters, send them to Sindre’s family. They make sure Sindre gets all the letters. Write to: 

Sindre Annasson Persson 

Rudolf Jonassons väg 25B

24136 Eslöv

Sweden

(Sindre is an animal rights activist, 21 years old, from so-called Sweden. In October 2023, Sindre was sentenced to forensic psychiatric forced care, without end date, for actions against a former fur farmer.)

Please, send a letter to Sindre today, even if you already did so last week. It is likely the facility is stopping Sindre from receiving the letters that would’ve been sent previously, so the change of address should help ensuring he receives them from now on.

UNTIL ALL ARE FREE

FOURTEEN HUNTING TOWERS DESTROYED, HUNTERS DESPERATE FOR A BREAK.

5th February, Limbaud Forest, Var, France.

According to local media, hunters from Var discovered fourteen hunting towers destroyed earlier this month. They are used to the odd tower being smashed, but they were left perplexed by the amount of destruction unknown perpetrators left behind this time. Anchoring posts dug up, structures knocked down, fittings dismantled: all that remains of the hunting cabins is a pile of wood scattered across the woods.

“Every year, we have tree stands destroyed. Here, or further down, at Le Fraye. But this is the first time we’ve had fourteen in one go” says one of the hunters. “I went to the gendarmerie but, like the other years, it won’t do any good. I’m fed up.”

“Often, we’re insulted, even though walkers or motorcycles and quads aren’t allowed to pass here. We’re not murderers,” says another hunter, who remembers one year when the watchtower was vandalized without the hunter stationed above noticing. “The construction cracked when it was almost two meters high. We had to hoist the colleague out by helicopter – it could have been very serious.”



So far, no one has claimed the action.

THE ANIMAL LIBERATION FRONT DESTROYS FOUR TOWERS FOR VALENTINE’S DAY.

14th February, Wettin Forest Germany.

According to local reports, four hunting towers in Wettin Forest, Germany, were found destroyed during Valentine’s day. Wolfgang Buchholz, who organises the hunting in the forest, says that they are suspicious of the Animal Liberation Front due to graffiti they have found in the broken towers reading “ALF” and “hunt hunters”.

“The four best high seats have been knocked over.”, says Wolfgang. A roofed cabin, a particularly high hunting seat and two conveniently located towers were destroyed. Over 2000 EUR worth of damage was done.

Wolfgang believes the attack wasn’t intended to hurt hunters, but believes the methods are unacceptable. “If they really believe that animals should not be shot in the forest, then they can campaign for this through democratic processes”. Wolfgang also laments that there is no insurance to cover the costs of vandalism against hunting structures, so he must pay for the repairs himself.

TWO HUNTING PLATFORMS ATTACKED.

28th January, Val-De-Dagne France.

According to local media, on the 29th of January when two hunting parties joined forces to hunt during saint Hubert’s day, patron saint of hunting, they discovered their hunting platforms destroyed. No one has claimed the action.

THE ALF DESTROYS EVEN MORE SHOOTING TOWERS.

THE ANIMAL LIBERATION FRONT VANDALISES LEGA’S POLITICAL PARTY OFFICES AS A RESPONSE FOR THE MURDER OF SONNY THE BEAR.

5th February, Lombardia North Italy.

Received anonymously via email:

ENGLISH (translation)

“in the night, we decided to protest against the kill-all policy put in place by the Lega (Italy’s majority political party) by going to the city symbolic of the party’s origins: Legnano in the province of Milan, Lombardy, Northern Italy.

We used spray and red paint to symbolize the blood of victims by the most dangerous predator: MAN. The League has started a war, without precedent, to the detriment of wildlife through a policy that does not take into account European directives for the protection of wolves and bears (in Trentino there is a massacre under the signature of the Leghist President Fugatti to the detriment of plantigrades: a few hours ago the bear M90-Sonny-“guilty” of having walked home in the woods and having met-it seems-two people: a real execution of an innocent! !!) and supporting hunting by proposing changes in existing legislation aimed at increasingly favoring hunters rather than conforming to the sentiment of the majority of Italian citizens who declare themselves in favor of abolishing hunting. Anyone who declares himself, openly or otherwise, an enemy of animals is, and will be under our attack.

A.L.F.♥”

ITALIAN (original)

“Nella notte abbiamo deciso di protestare contro la politica ammazza-tutti messa in atto da parte della Lega (partito politico di maggioranza italiano) recandoci nella città simbolo delle origini leghiste: Legnano nella provincia di Milano, in Lombardia, Nord Italia.

Abbiamo usato spray e vernice rossa per simboleggiare il sangue delle vittime da parte del predatore più pericoloso: l’UOMO. La Lega ha iniziato una guerra, senza precedenti, a danno della fauna selvatica attraverso una politica che non tiene conto delle direttive europee di tutela del lupo e dell’orso (in Trentino è in atto una strage a firma del Presidente leghista Fugatti a danno dei plantigradi: da poche ore è stato ucciso l’orso M90-Sonny- “colpevole” di avere camminato a casa sua nel bosco e avere incontrato-sembra-due persone: una vera e propria esecuzione di un innocente!!!) e sostenendo la caccia attraverso la proposta di modifiche della normativa in essere volte a favorire sempre di più i cacciatori anziché adeguarsi al sentire della maggioranza dei cittadini italiani che si dichiarano favorevoli all’abolizione della caccia. Chiunque si dichiari, apertamente e non, nemico degli animali è, e sarà sotto nostro attacco.
