“From the streets into the offices, factories and headquarters is where we need to take this fight to the companies making a killing out of the occupation. The third intifada needs to be a global intifada.”
Ewa Jasiewicz, Occupied Gaza, 9th January 2009

EDO Arms factory ransacked in Gaza protest

Nine people held after break-in at plant in Brighton making parts for Israeli missiles
In the early hours of Saturday 17th January 6 people broke into the EDO/ITT factory on Home Farm Road, Brighton. They broke windows, sprayed graffiti and threw filing cabinets and computers out of the top floor windows. Police report extensive damage caused to machinery inside the factory. These people targeted EDO due to its role in making weapons used in the aerial bombardment of Gaza.
