Do what you want. But I rather fight battles I have the chance to win eventually. Go on and throw yourself at the metaphorical rubber wall made of the antis convictions; you´ll never even leave a small scratch in it. I do not say we should start hacking, but I say that we should infiltrate their group with unsuspicious fake profiles and try to destroy them from within. We should plant doubt and confusion by communicating with them one on one: "Hey, mate, I´ve checked what one of those animal fuckers said about the pictures we publish...and he´s right about them. We do the right thing, so why do we need lies to sustain/emphasize our pledges?" It should be clear by now that the opposition will not hear what any of their "adversaries" say (selective autism), so cloak yourself and let´s see whether they listen to signals coming from within their own group. Destroy their trust in each other, manipulate their communication. When they start to doubt each other´s motives and suspect that they have "sleeper agents" among them, their structure depending on this trust will crumble and eventually fall. Use communication warfare to bring ´em down for good. Like the hashishim did as a more humane alternative to an open battle in the field: a blade, set to the right throat at the right time, is mightier than any army. Use the knowledge of infiltration provided by the hashishim, the other underground armies, the ninpo of the ninjas....we are desperately outnumbered and can´t expect support from the public, so our only chance is the right usage of trickery and deceit. Read Robert A. Wilsons books about B.S. (belief systems) and how to overcome them. Become invisible for them, it´s their hate that binds them together. Imagine what will happen when they cannot channel their hate onto a visible enemy...they will, like it has happened in the German anti scene, turn towards each other and start fighting themselves and thus diminuishing their effectiveness. That is what I would do if I had any interest in bringing the OpBeast down...not direct confrontation. Use your brains. Make friends with them and if you manage to find out who is attacking official government websites, turn in the police on them. Cyberterrorism is a severe felony in every state, so use that to thin ´em out one by one. Attack their vulnerable points instead of punching at the mentioned rubber wall of belief. Remember what Abdul Alhazred, the leader of the hashishim, said: "Nothing is true...everything is permissable". Use this motto to bring their war to them, into their own lines. Let them know they engaged with an enemy that is known to be the most dangerous....one who has nothing to lose anymore. Only a few dedicated fighters can bring entire armies down, never forget this important lesson history has told us throughout the centuries. Let ´em feel that...hit ´em where it hurts the most.

It´s not true that ZETA was silent before the ban. They attempted to influence the parties in charge right from the beginning, starting with Silke Lautenschlägers petition to ban animal sex. They even sent their arguments against a ban to the Bundestag and the "Ostschabracke" a. k. a. Angela Merkel and participated in a hearing regarding this petition. I guess you´re not part of the community long enough to realize that speaking about zoophilia freely was not possible even without the new law. It was always a topic frowned upon by the public. And why should I want to get rid of this law and return to a situation (unregulated) that led to introducing this new law? We don´t need "freedom" IMHO if this freedom is abused by fencehoppers and sadists, by porn fiends and all those who cannot deal with the responsibilities zoophilia includes. What we really need is regulation. Fencehopping, making and distributing animal porn and all the other excesses should remain forbidden. I have proposed another way in several fora and on several occasions: To be allowed to interact sexually with an animal, you need to register. After you´ve been tested psychologically to exclude those among us who have severe mental issues like sadism etc., you get a zoo "license", but only for your own animal. Your animal will be regularly checked by a NEUTRAL vet to ensure that the animal doesn´t suffer physically or psychically from the interspecies relationship...at least that would cease the everlasting accusations of harming the animal. With the license, you will have to subscribe that you do not participate in the animal porn industry, "amateur" or professional; you will have to refrain from lending or renting your animal to anyone else. Violation of these rules will lead to the removal of your license and you´ll be illegal again. It´s similar to a driver´s license: if your conduct shows that you can´t handle the given freedom and are not capable of responsible and tolerable behavior, it´ll be gone forever. You have to realize what exactly led to the new law. Please read what the originator of the first petition wrote some years ago: "This underground group has developed from some people living with their animal partners in silence into a huge group of sexually limitless persons. What once wasn´t a big problem for the public has turned into a mass movement poisoning our society with vast amounts of forbidden animal porn available for anybody, lured more and more sexually adventurous and/or bored people into a scene inevitably interwoven with organised criminals and a shadow scene of semi institutionalised facilities for those to engage in sexual acts with animals for money." You see, it wasn´t zoophilia itself that was considered a problem for society, it was the commercialisation of it. Animal porn just two clicks away, people who "share" a.k.a. prostitute their animals for "friends", group sex orgies with animals included. All of that gave them the impression that there is something growing that needs to be restrained. And don´t tell me this is all made up: a quick look into e.g. the Beastforum will prove them right. Our public image mutated from "Well, there´s this weird guy living alone with his dog/horse/insert preferred species here, but he poses no threat to society" into "Hell, there´s a whole shadow economy, organised rape of animals, huge amounts of money made through the sexual exploitation of animals...we need to do something,now!" I know, it´s hard to digest, but it´s entirely our own fault the law was passed. We have mistaken indifference for tolerance for too long, we have failed at speaking out against the "pornographisation" of our orientation loud and clear, we failed to put an end to the excesseshappening in our own community. We failed in making clear the difference between a genuine zoophile and anyone else into fucking animals, for whatever doubtable reasons they come up with. We missed out on keeping our own community tidy and clean and thus , more easily tolerable for the public. We have turned into a threat for society. Us IRC chatters have foreseen this development 20 years ago and tried to channel it by inventing the zeta rules. But , "penis erectus non compos mentis", an erect dick is not made of thoughts...and so the thoughtlessness and the lack of responsible conduct brought us to this very point in history and the law prohibiting any sexual interspecies contact. Unless we realise that WE are the creators of our own downfall, there will be no change at all. Freedom for animal porn fiends and fencehoppers? No way, I´ll definitely never fight for that. Defending people like Martin P. from Ramstein? No, not at all. Zoophilia has to be seen as a genuine sexual orientation, not a playground for pervs and folks bored with more "normal" sexuality. Animals are NO sex toys and because of that, I will never fight for bestialists mistaking animals as a cheap outlet for their swollen testicles. Zoophilia is about love for ANIMALS, not love for having sex with animals. But exactly the latter misjudgement brought us the new laws...
