Our government should not buy or sell military equipment to states which:
· brutally occupy or wage war against neighbouring nations · maintain illegally-acquired and undeclared nuclear weapons and other weapons of mass destruction · carry out summary executions and collective punishment, terrorizing communities without military protection
· flout dozens of UN resolutions and international court rulings · implement apartheid policies against populations under their control
· kill peaceful human rights demonstrators and bomb refugees under UN protection

Drop all the contracts, isolate Israel!
