Palestine Action? They’re arrested regularly. They don’t take it to court because they don’t want a weapons company’s secrets being open to evidence requests that they have to comply with during the discovery phase of a trial.
They definitely convicted at least a handful of them just last year, but they ended up getting less time than the Just Stop Oil people so maybe you’re right that they should have just done something cooler
Teledyne being an american one may have been the problem there. All the israeli factories such as Elbit have simply had arrested activist walk without charges.
This is the 2021 case and is before the actions really blew up. There have been literally hundreds of people arrested taking part in recent years. They just let people walk out a few hours later. Often they don’t even arrest, just detain for some time on site and take details then let people go after.
If you’re going to get 5 year sentences for stopping traffic then you might as well do something that’s actually worth 5 years.
Well, then you get 50 years
You say that and yet nobody that’s been smashing up weapons factories for the last 2 years has received a single conviction lol
Did they get caught planning in zoom? Because I have a feeling they’d get at least one or two convictions if they got caught

They definitely got charged and were mostly acquitted by a jury. Only one conviction.
