Palestine Action:


In a draconian move, four of the five were given 12 months sentences for costing Thales' weapons factory in Glasgow over £1million. One was handed a 14 month sentence. They will be expected to serve half of their sentences in prison.

Thales is one of the world's largest arms companies - producing armoured vehicles, missile systems and drones. The company works in partnership with Elbit Systems, Israel's biggest weapons producer, to manufacture military drones which are "battle-tested" on the Palestinian people.

From inside prison, Stuart says:

They can strip our liberation & freedom but it was already incomplete without freedom & liberation for the Palestinians. Our bodies are caged but our hearts and minds are free. We won't be complicit. This too will pass. Palestine will be free.
