Once inside, they begun dismantling machinery, technology and parts used to arm the Gaza genocide.
Doesnt look like they did much actual damage but it doesn't really matter. The plant's insurance rates have been skyrocketing already, this will drive it up even more. I don't work in the war and murder industry, but at least in mine insurance is a massive operating expense.
Every building they've attacked successfully has completely written off the contents and shut down the property for weeks. Entire factories have been shut down due to successive attacks making them unviable to continue.
Don't underestimate these actions from just one video. Palestine Action are an extremely effective org.
Yeah good point. They're gonna have to pull workers off the line to examine every single piece of material/equipment to confirm what was damaged.

Well… you say that, but they could also just pull a Boeing and use fake titanium for years without telling anybody.
Yea seems kind of performative, i hope off camera they trashed the actual computers and drives not just the damn monitors and keyboards.
That's not what matters. What matters is actual physical structural damage to the building itself which knocks the entire building out of operation for weeks. You take sledgehammers to the brick work and knock out chunks of the walls and roof, destroy aircon units and security doors, etc etc.
Computers and shit are easily replaceable and the stuff being saved is on the company network so it doesn't even destroy much data or work.
Well that’s just one aspect. Destroying the building, equipment, and raw materials are good and based. But so is scaring the shit out of the government by stealing hard drives, documents, etc. It may not be useful, but the government won’t know what the intentions are because those secrets are valuable and sought after by their enemies.
I think they're somewhat careful about what action is taken so as to walk a fine line of not being prosecuted. So far in over 2 years of this kind of activity and multiple factories officially closed nobody has been prosecuted, the belief is that Elbit and the government are avoiding prosecutions because it would open up the defence to call for information during certain phases of the process. This would expose secrets they do not want out.
With this in mind, letting them keep their secrets is essentially what is allowing the actions to continue, it may be that they intentionally do not do this because it would no longer give Elbit or the government a reason not to prosecute.
:yeah:
that said, nothing but respect for these folks. they're courageous and I've never done anything half as cool as this. It would be helpful if more people with experience in these workplaces were conducting the sabotage, they could be verrrrry effective.
Yea that goes without saying, these guys have done more than all this server combined.
But we must point out these mistakes to improve in the future, destroying the servers and other hardware that contains the software to operate these machines is much more damaging (and easier to destroy) than destroying the raw materials.
but but but VOOOOOOOOOOTE
You cant do direct action thats ILLEGAL
Just pick 99% hitler trust me bro
Based af, but i hope they actually trashed the computers. This is actual praxis.
I’ve talked to a few people working in security and compliance with defense contractors. They keep getting caught off guard with protests which makes security and customer compliance a lot more difficult, especially if delivery routes are blocked (which is the majority of protests here), but this is the US I’m talking about. I imagine it’d be worse for companies if they actually started to sabotage the factories instead of standing in a truck’s way
