 A F35 aircraft prepares to land at RAF Marham, Norfolk

APALESTINIAN human rights group announced today that it is appealing against a High Court ruling on Britain’s arms exports to Israel.

Al-Haq has been engaged in a long legal battle against the Department for Business and Trade, challenging the export of parts for lethal F-35 jets.

In July, the High Court rejected the challenge and ruled that it was for Parliament and not the court to decide whether the decision to continue the exports breached Britain’s international legal obligations.

…

A hearing will now be held at the Court of Appeal on October 9.

Al-Haq director Shawan Jabarin said: “If the UK courts are unwilling to hold the government accountable for arming Israel during the deadliest phase of its genocide to date, who will?

“The court’s findings set a dangerous precedent and risk undermining the legal mechanisms designed to ensure government accountability.”

…

Private Eye magazine has reported that Israel’s largest weapons firm, Elbit Systems, is close to winning a £2 billion contract that would make it a “strategic partner” of the Ministry of Defence.

Nine arrested in police crackdown on Youth Demand

Spread the love

A Youth Demand welcome talk and a number of houses were raided last night and this morning. Nine people, including one attending their first meeting and a journalist were arrested.

Over 30 Metropolitan Police officers raided the Youth Demand Welcome Talk at the Quaker Meeting House in Westminster at 7.30p.m. yesterday. Six arrests were made including one attending their first ever welcome talk and a journalist. Three people were released in the early hours of the morning while three remain in custody. Police said that the arrests were for conspiracy to cause a public nuisance.

In a separate incident at around 8:00a.m. this morning Youth Demand supporter Eddie Whittingham​ was arrested at his house in Exeter but was released without charge. Two other supporters were arrested at unknown locations. The situation is ongoing.

The Welcome Talk is an opportunity to share information about the ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people in Gaza and the West Bank and about the mass killing that is being imposed on vulnerable people across the globe as a result of the accelerating climate crisis. It is also an opportunity to share plans for non-violent civil resistance actions to take place in April.

One of those arrested last night and released this morning was Ella Grace-Taylor, 20, an actor musician student said:

“At this point, it couldn’t be clearer that we are in a police state. Our politicians will stand by as police engage in mass arrests and imprisonment of anyone who speaks out against the government for being responsible for genocide. By arming Israel and refusing to call what is happening a genocide, they are perpetrating mass slaughter.  Hundreds of children were killed in Palestine in the last week. We won’t stop saying it. We won’t be intimidated.”

A Youth Demand spokesperson said:

“It’s clear that the government sees Youth Demand as a threat. They know that we are right.  There are thousands of young people who are horrified by what the government is doing to facilitate genocide and who know that they have been betrayed as their future is fucked. We will not be silenced. Young people all over the country are coming together to shut London down day after day throughout April. Sign up for action at youthdemand.org “

MORE than 200 lawmakers from 13 countries issued a joint call today against their countries’ arms exports to Israel.

In an open letter, co-ordinated by the Progressive International, 218 lawmakers from 13 countries declared their “commitment to end our nations’ arms sales to the state of Israel.”

The politicians, who serve in parliaments of countries that export weapons or parts to Israel, say they will “not be complicit in Israel’s grave violation of international law” and instead call for an arms embargo, pledging to “immediate and co-ordinated action in their respective legislatures to stop our countries from arming Israel.”
