February 10, 2026 Jonathan Cook, Consortium News. Educate! Elbit, Jury, Legal System, Palestine Action, United Kingdom (UK)

Even before the trial began, the British government had done its utmost to prejudice the proceedings against six Palestine Action activists. It declared that they belonged to a terrorist organisation and that they were engaged in a terrorist enterprise in breaking into an Israeli weapons factory in Filton, Bristol – one, British officials avoided mentioning, that makes drones used to kill children in Gaza. In the months before the trial, the home secretary of the time, Yvette Cooper, explicitly said her decision to proscribe Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation was, in part, based on the events that had unfolded at the Filton factory.

For years, Palestine activists in Germany have looked to Britain with a sense of astonishment. The state that promised Palestine to Zionist settler colonialism in the 1917 Balfour Declaration is scarcely less pro-Israel than the Federal Republic of Germany, with its so-called Staatsräson (‘reason of state‘) that proclaims unconditional solidarity with Israel – albeit without ever having been codified into law. And yet, solidarity in Britain appears – at least from this vantage point – to be more vibrant, broader, and above all more effective.

As Western European elites scramble to maintain influence amid waning backing from the Trump administration and growing domestic opposition to pro-militarization, anti-people policies, countries in Eastern Europe are faced with a different set of dynamics. Starting from distinct political and economic conditions, movements across the region are organizing against expected cuts and deepening ties with Israel’s genocidal regime, while also pushing back against local elites seeking to profit from the EU’s expanding armament agenda. Peoples Dispatch spoke with Oana Uiorean and Vlad Mureşan of the Elbit OUT! campaign in Romania about the specific challenges facing left movements in the region and efforts to build strong Palestine solidarity campaigns in Eastern Europe.

A militant crowd organized by the Boston Coalition for Palestine faced off against a phalanx of cops guarding a Capital One Café and shut down the streets of Harvard Square in Cambridge for nearly two hours during the sweltering afternoon heat of Aug. 10. The action was in response to a violent attack by Cambridge police a week earlier at the same storefront on activists with BDS (Boycott, Divest, Sanction) – Boston. Capital One Café — the target of a month-long campaign by BDS – Boston — is run by the ninth largest bank in the U.S. Besides luring people like students into its credit card debt trap through gimmicks like “cafés,” the otherwise online-only Capital One Financial has amassed much of its $490.6 billion in assets by extending lines of credit to the military-industrial complex.

On Tuesday 25 February, activists from Palestine Action once again parked up outside the Elbit Systems HQ at Aztec West 600, Bristol. We say ‘parked up’.

It supplies huge numbers of munitions and missiles – including the so-called ‘Iron Sting’, developed and deployed for the first time in the Gaza genocide, in which the deadly technology produced by Elbit has played a central role.
