HUNDREDS of protesters gathered outside Woolwich Crown Court against the “completely unjust” trial of four Palestine Action activists who broke into the British factory of Israel-based arms firm Elbit Systems.

A judged ruled today that the activists would be sentenced for carrying out an “act of terrorism,” confirming his prior decision in a pre-trial hearing that the Elbit raid had a “terrorist connection.”

His decision to rule on the raid as an act of terror will mean tougher sentences on the activists.
