EDO INSIDE SCHNEWS

Last Saturday about 60 people marched around Horfield Prison in Bristol in a “Wall of Sound” protest to show solidarity with those who tried to decommission the EDO MBM/ITT factory during the Israeli bombing of Gaza (See SchNEWS 663). The factory supplies the bomb release mechanisms used by the Israeli war machine in its commission of war crimes and crimes against humanity.

Of the six arrested, two have been on remand since the decommissioning on January 17th. Send letters of support - Elija Smith VP 7551, HMP Bristol, 19 Cambridge Rd, Horfield, BS7 8PS; and Robert Alford VP 7552 HMP Lewes, 1 Brighton Rd, Lewes, Sussex, BN7 1EA
