If so, their ideology is reminiscent of the infamous "Unabomber" Kaczynski - Theodore, is currently serving a life sentence for a series of mail bombings that killed three people and wounding 23.
The man in the episode of Discovery Channel, identified by law enforcement officials as James J. Lee apparently had beliefs similar to Kaczynski: that the human population growth and endanger the world's modern industrial development.
Several hours after the episode began, Mr. Lee was reportedly shot by snipers. Three hostages were released unharmed.
"The debate on the state of the planet is done," Lee writes on his website. "Global warming is a reality. The mass extinction of animals is happening all over the world. Let's start the debate on how to save the planet. We can not wait any longer, something must be done immediately! We will act on it immediately, is this a new chapter in the history of the Earth. As human beings we must unite to save it. "
Lee focus on Discovery Channel is not new.
For several years, had been protesting outside the headquarters of the company, with banners and posters critical of the channel's programming. In March 2008, was fined $ 500 and six months of supervised probation on charges of disorderly conduct. The judge in the case ordered to stay 500 feet away from Discovery Communications.
But apparently that is not prevented him from continuing with its critical approach on the Discovery Channel and its programming.
"The Discovery Channel is a big part of the problem not the solution," he wrote. "Instead of showing successful solutions, its outreach programs appear to be doing the opposite. Programs such as' Cash Cab service 'and' Dirty Jobs as entertainment to keep the focus on what is really important, which is global warming the extinction of animals. Why was issued a show like "Future Weapons" that only the promise of destroying the planet even more? And its new line of "Green Planet" is closer to all products and other solutions low quality. "
Among the demands of Lee: "All the programs on Discovery Health, TLC should stop encouraging the birth of any human babies more parasitic and false heroics behind those actions. In places of such programs, programs to promote human sterilization and infertility be pushed. All professional ex birth programs now must push in the direction to stop the human birth, not encourage it. "
Most of the 1,900 employees Discovery had been evacuated before the police began negotiations.
Discovery Communications include the Discovery Channel, TLC, Animal Planet, Science Channel, Planet Green and networks. Discovery Communications officials could not be reached in connection with the hostage episode shows Lee's anger against the company.
