Raytheon Nine Walk Free!
Some good news received today . Apparently the Raytheon Nine in Derry who entered the Raytheon Offices in Ulster during the Israeli bombing of Lebanon two years ago and were subsequently charged with criminal damage and affray have had all charges dropped and their trial halted after several days in court.
Raytheon, a multinational manufacturer and supplier of military equipment,was subject to a "sit in" by peace and anti war protestors after the Israeli military used Raytheon supplied cluster bombs against Leanese civilians. The protestors had occupied a Raytheon office and had ,so it was alleged, thrown computer equipment out of a window.However,the trial seems to have collapsed according to reports on the web!
