Glasgow City Council: Don’t Promote Israeli Apartheid’s Killing Machines!

Send a letter to Glasgow City Council to end its support of the Undersea Defence Technology Fair where Israeli arms will be promoted!

From June 26-28, Glasgow City Council will sponsor the Undersea Defence Technology Fair, a military fair featuring companies that fuel wars and military oppression around the world, including Israeli military companies.

Israeli arms companies have a regular presence in European arms fairs in an attempt to export Israel's repressive tactics and militarism. They must be stopped.

The fair  lists “Israel Defense,” a media enterprise that promotes Israel’s arms industry, as an official media partner. Israeli company DSIT Solutions, which facilitates Israel’s illegal naval siege on Gaza will also be present at the fair. Israeli arms companies regularly market their weapons as “tested in combat” or “field tested,” meaning they are tested on Palestinians bodies and then exported to promote oppression in the rest of the world.

Glasgow’s arms fair has been condemned by peace campaigners across Scotland for its promotion of arms trade and links to Trident, the UK’s program for the development, procurement and operation of nuclear weapons. BAE Systems and Babcock International, two companies involved in Trident, are also sponsoring  the fair.

Send a letter to Susan Aitken,Glasgow City Council leader, to end the council’s sponsorship of this military fair! Glasgow City Council, don’t sponsor Israeli apartheid’s human rights violations!
