The Raytheon 9 - activists from Derry's Anti War Movement are facing trial for occupying the Raytheon Derry Plant office during Israel's assault on Lebanon last year. The group took the decision after confirming that parts of the missiles used in the killing of civilians in Lebanon were manufactured at the Derry plant. The trial is a chance to put those who profit from war in the dock. But the group need your money and support

Raytheon, are one of the world's major arms producers, producing high-tech weapons including missiles for the US and Israeli military.

The Raytheon plant in Derry is involved in producing components for many of the weapons used by the Israeli military in conflicts such as that in Lebanon.

A recent report by Human Rights Watch (HRW) accuses Israel of "war crimes" in the conduct of its military operations during the assault on Lebanon – an assault which led to the deaths of over one thousand Lebanese civilians. The report lays the blame for overwhelming majority of civilian deaths and injuries squarely at door of Israel and a military policy which it says was operating deliberately in violation of the laws of war and International human rights law.

STOP THE WAR COALITION NOMINATED FOR CHANNEL 4 NEWS MOST
INFLUENTIAL POLITICAL FIGURES OF THE DECADE AWARD
It has just been announced that the Stop the War Coalition  has been nominated and shortlisted for the highly prestigious Channel 4 News award for most influential political figures of the decade.
This is subject to a public vote to decide the winner, which will be announced on the night of the awards at
Channel 4 on the 23 January 2008, and the awards themselves
will be televised on the 27 January.

Please, please.
We urge all anti-war activists, supporters, local groups and organisations to do all they can before 18th January  to mobilise the vote for Stop the War Coalition.

At a time when warmongering politicians, with the help of the mainstream media, are downplaying the continuing nightmare of war and occupation in Iraq and Afghanistan, this will be an opportunity to show that the majority of people who have/watch Channel 4 want these wars to end and
all foreign troops to be withdrawn.
