Support The EDO Decommisioners

More than 1200 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli forces since Decmber 27th, more than 400 of which are children. They have deliberately targetted individuals in their homes, schools, hospitals as well as U.N compounds.

EDO MBM make vital components for the Paveway4 precision guided bomb, Hellfire missiles, and bomb release clips for F15 and F16 fighter aircraft.

On Friday Brighton and Hove City Council refused to allow the tabling of a motion by a number of councilors that would have condemned the presence of EDO MBM in Brighton and its supply of components to Israel currently being used in Gaza. The grounds for the refusal were that the motion was ‘not relevant to the wellbeing of the city of Brighton and Hove’. The much acclaimed democratic process was once again tripped up at the first hurdle in the interests of corporate profits.

Just a few hours later six ordinary people took that democratic process into their own hands for the wellbeing of those in Gaza where governments and international law have failed to act.

“I believed our actions were justified in a world where the profits of corporations seems to be put before the lives of Palestinian children, i only wish i had acted earlier and caused more damage”. Says Tom Woodhead a decommisioner.

“If you hear the sound of a child being brutalised in the house next door and you rush in to smash the door down and save the child, should you be charged with breaking and entering? Obviously not.” Wrote Eamonn McCann of the Raytheon 9.
