  1. CW: UK law, info hidden from jury

    This is such a weird twisty thing. Like why _not_ tell the jury in the first place that you consider these actions potentially to be terrorism? Why not let them decide for themselves if it is or isn't? Why keep that part secret?

  2. Interesting article.

    So apparently #PalestineAction was (unlawfully) declared a #terrorist organisation by the UK govt and its supporters have been convicted of criminal damage - for damaging products created purely to commit acts of #genocide.

    #Elbit on the other hand, continue to trade as if their business is entirely normal.

    > A Palestine Action activist said they disarmed Elbit’s drones “because they were going to kill children.”…

  3. “Before the closing arguments in the retrial, five of the defendants dismissed their lawyers, including Menon and represented themselves. *
    They reportedly said they felt their lawyers were no longer able to represent them as a result of “decisions made by the court”.

  4. Lawyer prosecuted for telling jury about the law. Sounds like a repressive dystopia without rule of law, doesn't it?

    You're right. It's the UK, where top human rights barrister #RajivMenon KC faces contempt of court proceedings. This has a "chilling effect" across the British bar.

    #Menon is accused of violating the judge’s orders in the trial of the #Filton6 #PalestineAction activists who broke into an Israeli-owned #Elbit arms factory near Bristol in 2024.

    5 of the #Filton6 fired their lawyers so they could address the jury about their motivation for causing damage to a #Elbit weapons fsctory. The judge wanted the jury to be unaware of motive, unaware of their right to j#JuryEquity.

  14. @emenel very quick search on ways #Dell supports Israeli #apartheid

    1. $150+ million Israeli military contract — Won tender in January 2023 to provide servers and services to Israeli defense ministry, other security bodies

    2. AI targeting systems for #Gaza genocide — Supplies servers and HPC infrastructure for AI systems #Lavender and The #Gospel that automate Palestinian targeting, minimizing human oversight and accelerating assaults

    3. Unit 8200 cyberwarfare support — Provides Dell Pro-Rugged 13 AI-powered laptops to Israel's notorious cyberwarfare force for intelligence gathering, surveillance, and military operations in West Bank

    4. Mass surveillance at checkpoints — Supplies servers enabling AnyVision's facial recognition at checkpoints, plus tech for #CISCO Israel and Cognyte to track Palestinians in Gaza and West Bank

    5. R&D supporting settlement expansion — Dell subsidiaries partner in National Cyber Park in Naqab, strengthening illegal settlements and displacing Palestinian Bedouin communities

  16. Dieser Prozess wird anscheinend von allen Beteiligten als RAF-Prozess-Cosplay geführt. Natürlich in Stammheim. Aber im Ernst: Was soll denn dieser staatsanwaltliche Bohai für im wesentlichen Sachbeschädigung?

  17. Ubiquitous killing machines.

    #Serbia and #Israel’s Elbit Systems are building a joint drone factory near Belgrade which will produce short-range armed #UAVs and long-range drones capable of operating at 6km altitude, with #Elbit holding majority 51% stake.

    harici.com.tr/en/serbia-to-joi

    Israel, whose entire national identity is built on the imperative of “never again,” is now building a drone factory with the state the ICJ found violated the Genocide Convention by failing to prevent the Srebrenica genocide.

    The UN Special Rapporteur named Elbit among companies profiting from the ongoing genocide in Gaza. Elbit’s 2025 revenue: $8 billion. In fact, the occupation and the genocide aren’t interrupting Israeli arms exports, they’re driving them.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ before this Israel armed #apartheid South Africa, the #Rwandan Hutu government during the 1994 genocide (records still sealed by court order), and #Guatemalan forces during their genocide.

    […] “The military-industrial complex has become the economic backbone of the State. Between 2020 and 2024, Israel was the eighth largest arms exporter worldwide. The two most prominent Israeli weapons companies – Elbit Systems, established as a public-private partnership and later privatized, and state-owned Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) – are among the top 50 arms manufacturers globally. Since 2023, Elbit has cooperated closely on Israeli military operations, embedding key staff in the Ministry of Defense, and was awarded the 2024 Israeli Defense Prize. Elbit and IAI provide a critical domestic supply of weaponry, and reinforce Israel’s military alliances through arms exports and joint development of military technology.”

  18. "podle vyjádření advokáta Čižinského se soud při rozhodování o vzetí do vazby argumentovaným alibi obou obviněných vůbec nezabýval" -- "Z dokumentu přitom nevyplývá, že by Policie ČR jejich alibi prověřila"

    denikreferendum.cz/clanek/2387

    "V kauze zapálení budovy pardubické továrny na zbraně spočívá obvinění, pro které šel pan M. do vazby, na následujícím: Kolem Pardubic se v rozhodné době pohybovala tři „podezřelá“ auta a pan M. měl mít „vazby“ ke dvěma z těchto aut. Nic víc! Policie tvrdí, že má jeho DNA. Jenže kde našla toto DNA (při domovní prohlídce, kam mě jako obhájce nepustili)? Na sim-kartě, kterou bylo telefonováno do autopůjčovny jednoho z těch podezřelých aut, která se vyskytovala v okolí místa činu. A s druhým automobilem ho spojuje to, že majitelka automobilu má dceru, která pana M. sleduje na instagramu. Nic víc státní zastupitelství v návrhu na vazbu neuvedlo! Policie dnes disponuje — za pomoci umělé inteligence — takovým množstvím informací, že pro ni není problém najít nějaké propojení mezi čímkoli." -- "Advokát [...] uvádí: „Vzetí do vazby pana M. — stejně jako druhé obviněné — považuji za dané důkazní situace za skandální. Pan M. se domnívá, že jeho uvěznění je jasným případem rasismu a potlačování jeho svobody slova."
