@ITTexelis Those FRCS cables have also been used by US and Dutch F16s to kill civilians in Afghanistan. How do you justify?

@ITTexelis the Gazan and Afghan civilians on the recieving end of your weapons would appreciate you changing business

@ITTexelis How can you justify civilian death toll from CIA drone attacks in Pakistan?

@ITTexelis develop drone bomb release units software and hardware for US drones used in extrajudicial assassinations

@ITTexelis What do your shareholders think of company's complicity in illegal US dronestrikes?

@ITTexelis The FRCS cables your company supplies for Lockheed Martin F-35s will be used by Israel to commit war crimes

@ITTexelis I think you will find When your death takes its toll All the money you madeWill never buy back your soul.

Gaza burns @ITTexelis earns - How do you live with yourselves? What do shareholders think of ITT's complicity in assassination?

@ITTexelis Brighton factory makes components for the Paveway missile system for Afghan war. What's the war done for Afghan people?

@ITTExelis Your company supplies FRCScables for the A-10 plane bombrack which carries clusterbombs  http://www.fbodaily.com/archive/2012/04-April/19-Apr-2012/FBO-02723723.htm

Does @ITTExelis condone the use of cluster munitions by the US military?

@ITTexelis You are complicit in the deaths of thousands of innocent people - where is your conscience?

"We've been awarded $238 million" says @ITTExelis Awarded, like they are being honoured for good deeds not paid to help kill people.

@ITTExelis Selling devices intended to kill innocent people just to line your pockets is the lowest of the low.

I assume Jews are welcome or do you exclude them from electronic campaigns as well ?
