Direct action in solidarity with EDO 2 - Brighton

In the night of 29 March 2009, the prison probation service building of Brighton was attacked with paintbombs and spraypaint signs "No War" & "EDO 2". The HSBC bank next door was also smashed windows.

These actions have been taken in solidarity with the 'EDO 2', Robert and Elijah, that are jailed in this period because they attacked the factory of arms EDO in Brighton (suppliers of the Israeli army). With these energies we wish to extend the fight against the objectives of the judicial and capitalist system. We can only attack one or two targets this time but the unique attacks they express always to us our rage against the total network of oppression.

Thus these energies are taken also in the solidarity and the collective effort with those that fight the NATO summit in Strasbourg and those that take the streets in London against the G20 this week.

Solidarity means attack - For a hot summer.

Direct action?

Direct action would be something that would help them escape, like for example smoke bombs at lunch time when everyone's out of their cells.

anon- don't be a spoon.

The action is about showing solidarity. That in itself can offer hope and support to those inside to keep their spirits up and let them know people are thinking of them. It also serves to keep media attention on their plight and on the issue of the EDO arms factory which contributes to the racist Israeli Apartheid system that punishes Palestinians for simply being Palestinian.

Anyhow- what's the point in getting them out in a shitty escape plan like smoke bombs at lunch? A trial is needed to prove their innocence. Smashing an office is nothing compared to the violence of the Israeli state and the current global system.

on the evening of the 30th march, i made a half milk/half water coffee and drank it whilst watching james bond and crunching a biscotti biscuit. This action was taken in solidarity with the EDO-2
