The event itself:
HAMMERTIME!
EDO make weapons components vital for the waging of aerial war. EDO's
technology is used to attack people from Palestine to Iraq, from
Afghanistan to Pakistan. They arm F-16s, build components for Paveway
bombs and help develop technology for Predator and Reaper drones.
During Israel's 2009 massacre in Gaza the 'decommissioners' broke
into EDO and by causing hundreds of thousands of pounds worth of
damage shut down the production line. Their defence was that they were
acting to prevent war crimes. Sixteen months later they were found not
guilty by a unanimous jury verdict.
The question ,after all this, is how long can EDO sustain their
bloody business in Brighton? Now it's time for a final push to remove
the factory from Brighton.
Our action comes at a time when the people of Afghanistan are being
targetted by remote controled Unmanned drones piloted by mercenaries
on the other side of the globe are used to maintain aerial supremacy
in Afghan skies. Tens of thousands of Afghans have died in the nine
year assault. Now is the time to attack the industries which are
propping up the occupation.
It's Hammertime! We are calling for people from around the UK and
beyond to join us in besieging EDO. We aim to shut the factory for the
day.
