They also brought to light a local subsidiary of Raytheon, Applied Signal Technology, a mere ten-minute drive from the event itself. UAWC member Adam Koritz said, “A Raytheon Tomahawk missile was used to target a girls’ school in Minab, killing 156 people, including 120 children, during the initial U.S.-Israeli onslaught.”

Columbus, Ohio—Artists, activists, and community members gathered amongst the post-industrial landscape of the Milo-Grogan neighborhood on Sunday to protest against the building of an enormous AI weapons manufacturing plant in Columbus. The AI industry, the latest sink for capital investment at the expense of working-class interests, is coming to central Ohio in a big way. Anduril Industries, an autonomous weapons system manufacturer founded by self-identified radical Zionist and Trump benefactor Palmer Luckey, announced in January 2025 that it would be constructing its first hyperscale manufacturing facility, known ominously as “Arsenal-1.”

A U.S. arms firm has launched legal action against pro-Palestine activists in Britain, it can be revealed. Court documents show Moog, which makes military aircraft parts and has links to Israel’s arms trade, applied for an injunction in September to prevent protests at its U.K. sites. The application, which was granted by the High Court, sought to stop “persons unknown” who “for the purpose of protest enter occupy or remain on” the firm’s facilities across Britain. Moog returned to court earlier this month and obtained a wider injunction to cover interference with “access to or egress from that land and premises.” This means protesters are barred from blocking traffic around entrances and exits and face risk of arrest on public land adjacent to the company’s sites.

"You're just a war criminal,” the heckler said, appearing seemingly from nowhere. “If you’re working inside the arms industry, that makes you a war criminal. You’re complicit with imperialism,” she said, directing her ire at the Unite union rep sitting next to me. “How am I?” he asked as the rest of the table fell into an awkward silence. The rep was one of the speakers at a panel discussion at The World Transformed (TWT) Festival 2025 in Manchester last Saturday, focused on opposing militarism. His name and employer did not appear on TWT’s programme listing for the event, and so we’d better keep his identity anonymous here too.

Pewaukee, WI – On the afternoon of May 13, dozens of anti-war and pro-Palestine activists held a rally outside the Wisconsin Defense Industry Council (WDIC)’s inaugural conference at the Ingleside Hotel in Pewaukee, a suburb of Milwaukee. The rally spoke out against the WDIC’s stated mission, to increase the influence of defense manufacturing in Wisconsin. The Wisconsin Defense Industry Council was founded in December 2023, mere months after the genocide ramped up in Palestine – and just in time to capitalize and profit off the mass deaths of the Palestinian people. This timing has not gone unnoticed in Wisconsin.

As CND prepares for its national demonstration at the BAE Shipyard, Barrow-in-Furness, on Saturday 22 March, the government is ramping up nuclear threats to prop up Britain’s failing nuclear weapons programme and justify military spending hikes in next week’s Spring Statement. The recent visit to the BAE Shipyard in Barrow and nuclear base at Faslane by Keir Starmer and John Healey, saw the Defence Secretary claim the weapons could do “untold damage” against countries like Russia in the event of a conflict. It was also announced that the Port of Barrow, which has built submarines for Britain’s nuclear weapons programme since the 1950s, will be given royal status.

More than a year after the Oct. 7 attacks that spurred Israel’s bombardment of Gaza, some Maryland residents have continued protesting Israel’s conduct in the conflict. Like others around the world demonstrating in solidarity against Israel’s ongoing occupation of Palestinian territories and the tens of thousands killed, these protestors have illuminated the local dimensions of this international issue. Much of their attention has fallen on an organization using public and private resources to facilitate economic exchange with Israel — including with companies developing tech for its military actions.
