caitlin easily makes the case that you shouldn't be thrown under the world for opposing genocide. having a conscience isn't a reason to put some one in jail;
The UK has sentenced four anti-genocide activists to years in prison on terrorism charges, and the US is working to deport a prominent foreign policy analyst for criticizing the war in Iran.
Four members of the group Palestine Action were sentenced to a combined total of 25 years in prison on Friday for breaking into a UK weapons factory owned by Israeli company Elbit Systems in 2024 and damaging some of the genocide machinery contained therein. The judge refused to allow the activists to explain to the jury why they did what they did, and also refused to notify the jury that the defendants could receive terrorism sentences if convicted.
The BBC reports that this is believed to be the first time anyone has received a terrorism sentence for property damage. Amnesty International has slammed the sentencing as “completely disproportionate” to the crime...........more..........
