Al Jazeera spoke with spokesperson Audrey Corno, who said the group aims to disrupt Elbit’s operations over its supply of military equipment to Israel.

Instead of taking a GLP-1 drug for weight loss, just print out this picture and affix it to your refrigerator door. You’re welcome

An armed drone would come in handy about now.

Anyone know a company that makes ‘em?

[HYPOCRACY]

Just a Lorry would do. What a bunch of losers.

Bolt cutters, billy clubs if necessary, paddy wagon, jail and then charges. Problem solved. But the British government will not do this.

Stupid fat old white leftist women appear to be a global menace

[Da Coyote]

Just use plain old tear gas. Come masked, of course, since the UK allows masks, do they not? Oh, forgot, on the criminals can wear those. It’s time for some generous and obviously anonymous group to hire some old soccer fans to drift over and beat the c**p out of the protestors. Consider it an overdue attitude adjustment. They come back? Additional adjustments with interest.

I think there is an excellent Israeli firm that makes drones…the name escapes me right now.

[Libloather]

Drone target practice.

[Brian Griffin]

I think Israel makes the quietest drones.

However, burkas appear to be a greater need.

[Fungi]

Wrong strategy. Get the keys to whatever they are wearing and leave them alone to rot in their ironware stupidity.
