Not In Our Name Trailer - Direct action/occupation against arms factory

On the 12th August 2006, during the Israeli military campaign against Lebanon, 9 men stormed an arms factory in Derry, Northern Ireland. They caused an estimated £350,000 worth of damage and were arrested. They denied nothing, yet the jury acquitted them of all charges.

Renegade Films brings viewers an inspiring true story of resistance in times of peace and war. Risking imprisonment yet motivated by justice, this is a story of 9 men who took the law into their own hands to fight for a greater good.

Featuring interviews from the President of the Stop the War Coalition, Tony Benn and comedian and writer Mark Steel, this is a moving yet uplifting account of a struggle across continents. The film captures the landmark trial that said that resisting war crimes is not a crime. The arms trade is a deplorable, unethical industry which operates in their city, but not in their name.

"The Raytheon 9 are wonderful, inspiring people" Professor Noam Chomsky

Screening in Derry during 23-31 October 2009 and thereafter in London.

The introduction of this film whines on about arms companies selling weapons to the world. Everyone should know that all arms dealing should be reserved for the communists. The Soviet Unions aim was for every savage in Africa to own an AK-47
