“Judge acquits two #Palestine Action protesters who shut down a #drone factory because their actions were ‘proportionate’”

By Steve Topple in @thecanaryuk

#A judge has acquitted two #PalestineAction activists after they blockade the entrance to a drone engine-making factory that supplies #ElbitSystems, #Israel’s largest privately owned arms company. Crucially, the judge let them off using a precedent of proportionality versus what they were protesting – that is, the pair’s actions were reasonable compared to what the drones would have done in the #OccupiedTerritories.

Back in September 2022, Jasmine and Iola were protesting at #UAVEngines Ltd, which is owned by #Elbit Systems. This was part of an ongoing activist camp at the site in #Shenstone. #UAV specialises in making engines for combat drones.

Palestine Action said in a press release that:

Elbit openly market these as ‘battle-tested’ on the Palestinian population. The #Hermes450 aircraft has been used to surveil and attack the people of #Gaza for over a decade, decimating thousands of lives.”

Aktivistinnen, die die Einfahrt von #UAVEnginesLtd, #GB, blockierten, wurden frei gesprochen, da der Richter der Ansicht war, dass ihr Handeln im Vergleich zu den #Verbrechen gegen die Menschlichkeit, die sie verhindern wollten, verhältnismäßig war.

UAV, das zum israelischen #Waffenproduzent|en #ElbitSystems (auch in DE tätig) gehört, ist Hersteller von Motoren für #Kampfdrohnen, die u.a. #Israel gegen #Palästinenser einsetzt.

Judge acquits activists who shut Elbit down
The two were acquitted as the Judge found their action was proportionate compared to the crimes against humanity they were acting to stop.

“Firstly, those facing trial for protests have increasingly been banned from explaining their motivations and beliefs to the jury.

Relevant evidence and witnesses – including expert testimony as to the Government’s failure to act on the scientific advice – has been disallowed or ignored.”

This ⤴️ happened recently to a group of #PalestineAction
protesters who are now awaiting sentence after having been convicted of ‘intent to cause criminal damage without lawful excuse’ to the Shenstone #Elbit factory of Israeli arms manufacturer, #ElbitSystems!

According to one of the defendants, Tony #Greenstein, “the Judge ruled out all lawful excuses holding that there were no lawful excuses, thus leading inevitably to our convictions.”

All five Defendants, including one whom the jury was deadlocked on, have issued a powerful statement which you can read here ⤵️:

“Palestine Action to date have shut down two #Israeli weapons factories and cost Elbit hundreds of million pounds in lost contracts.

By imprisoning activists, the British state is demonstrating that it prioritises protecting the military supply chain of a foreign #Apartheid state over the freedom of its own citizens.”

In a new tactic, activists used concrete and other materials to create a blockage in the pipes to disrupt the operation of the factory.
