Jump To Comment: 1 2 3Goodbody- are they the same crowd who reckoned that there were not enough taxis on the roads in Dublin when they were asked for a report? And in another report they found that Corrib gas would benefit the economy of Ireland? Seems that they can do all sorts of tricks for their masters.
No- it must be a different crowd with the same name.
The Catholic Worker movement in Liverpool took a Non Violent Disarmament action against BAe in the UK. One of their Tornado Frontline Fighters were rendered immobile. The buyer was Suharto in East Timor who used the remaining 11 fighters to kill thousands of his citizens as Mobile Oil Coorporation loaned him excavating equiptment to bury the dead, but not after he ordered everyone not to bury any dead for three days as an example to the remaining victims, so the bodies remained laying in the streets as dogs ravaged them.
The NVDA activists were acquitted by a liverpool jury.....
The Irish Government benefits to the tune of €5,000,000,000 (5 bil) every year in weapons manufacturing, it will not be surprising to see inaction on the part of the powers that be in Eire to do nothing.
The same hammers used to damage the US Military warplane in Shannon to prevent genocide in Iraq were the same ones used in BAe Systems to prevent Genocide in East Timor.....
They were on display in the project Arts Centre in Dublin three months ago.....mabey one day we'll see them as a permanent display in our own National History Museum beside Dail Eireann as a reminder of the atrcities that the Irish Government willingly took part in by assisting genocide in Iraq and Afghanistan...and now Pakistan....
Joe Duffy done a show about the hammers on display in the Project Theatret , trying to ridicule the display, and showed his very right wing support for war and genocide as a Government supporter for the crimes they commit.
The NVDA activists in Dublin were also acquitted but Kenny, Duffy, Turbidy, Ryan, Finnucane, Hook, and the rest of Irelands Finest in unbiased journahilism continnued to call them criminals.....
Mabe a piket outside the lawfirm could get underway.....
Fraud, warcrimes, genocide, destruction of a soverign nation, cluster bombing, Napalming, radioactive poisoning......to name a few...
My relationship with BAe is a long one and seems it's going to be lifelong as in '96 they slapped a high court (London) court injunction on me within 6 weeks of my initial '96 arrival in England. 12 other activists were also targeted for injunction by spies that had infiltrated "Campaign Against the Arms Trade" and the scene around the ploughshares trial in Liverpool in '96.
The offer was to accept the injunction (limiting ones free speech with max sentences of 2 years) being lifelong and be free of court costs incurred (and inflated by acocuntants) by BAe. Four of us targeted refused and had a few hours unsuccessfully defending ourselves in Judges Chambers at the high court in London at the end of '96....we were left with 100 grand legal bills each.
After Special Branch's failure to infiltrate the Liverpool Catholic Worker at its outset (offering a former policewoman 200 quid for every LCW meeting she attended and bonuses for info on organisers), BAe went to a private intelligence agency, that placed a spy in our extended community for 3 years...helping to bring down the LCW community.
BAe ran 6 agents in the more mainstream Campaign Against the Arms Trade. This is a very good article in the Guardian by comedian Mark Thomas as he slowly comes to accept his CAAT fulltimeorganiser is actually a BAe spy...check it out http://www.indymedia.ie/article/85347
Continued on the above MT thread is more info on Bae's infiltration of the Liverpool Catholic Worker, home to East Timorese exiles at the time.
It is instructive that the last act of Blair before standing down was to cancel a Serious Frauds Office inquiry that had been running for tow years into a billion pound slush fund set up by BAe for a Saudi prince...that's how powerful, nasty and tooled up they are.
