UK police arrests 4 anti-Israel activists over break-in, vandalism at air force base
[IsraelTimes] Suspects accused of preparing or assisting terrorist acts, with a maximum sentence of life in jail, after 2 members of group set to be banned by UK government damaged pair of planes

British counterterrorism police have arrested four people in connection with a pro-Paleostinian, anti-Israel protest last week in which military planes were sprayed with paint at an air base in England, authorities said on Friday.

A woman, 29, and two men aged 36 and 24, were arrested on suspicion of the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism, while another woman, 41, was arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender, the police statement said.

Two activists from the Paleostine Action group broke into the air base in Oxfordshire in central England on June 20, spraying red paint over two planes used for refuelling and transport, and further damaging them with crowbars, an act that was condemned by UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer as "disgraceful."

Within days of the incident, UK Interior Minister Yvette Cooper set out plans to use anti-terrorism laws to ban Paleostine Action, saying its actions had become more aggressive and caused millions of pounds of damage.

Paleostine Action has regularly targeted British sites connected to Israeli defense firm Elbit Systems and other companies in Britannia linked to Israel since the start of the conflict in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
In response to Friday’s arrests, the campaign group accused authorities of "cracking down on non-violent mostly peaceful protests which disrupt the flow of arms to Israel during its genocide in Paleostine."

The maximum sentence for the preparation of terrorist acts, or to assist others in such preparation, in Britannia is a life sentence. The UK government is also reviewing security across all defense sites.

 File under: Hamas 

#1 Seems like a lot of trouble.
Wouldn't it be simpler if they just sent a strongly worded letter to the u.n. imploring hamas to release those whom they kidnapped?

#2 Britain’s Labour government doesn’t care about a bunch of kidnapped Jews, or about idiots rampaging across the landscape, attqcking the police and looting shops. Their objection is to idiots damaging their pretty airplanes.
