[Pro-Palestinian activists have broken
into RAF Brize Norton and sprayed
two military planes with red paint
in a major security breach.
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has
condemned the action as "disgraceful",
saying that it was an "act of vandalism".

Footage posted online by
Palestine Action on Friday showed
two people inside the Oxfordshire airbase
in darkness, with one riding on a scooter
up to an Airbus Voyager and spraying
paint into its jet engine.

The Ministry of Defence, which has
also condemned the move, is now expected
to conduct a review of security
at UK military bases. It is working
with Thames Valley Police,
which is leading the investigation.]

These punks are not the problem
but someone from Russia could
also pop in over night
and attach a bomb to a plane.
That will blow up - once it takes.

So now 24/7 staff must stay awake.

If this is anything like the bases I’m used to, I’m surprised they made it in alive

Does this base not have guards? I’ve never seen a UK base so idk if they even have guards

Good work. This country needs to stop facilitating a genocide, so anyone prepared to take action, is taking a moral action.

There's an interesting loophole in the law that allows preventative action.

[Defence Secretary John Healey said he was
“disturbed” by the vandalism,
while Sir Keir Starmer said it was “disgraceful”.

“I am really disturbed that this happened
and have ordered an investigation
and a review of wider security at our bases,”
Mr Healey said.

“These aircraft are used by our military personnel
to support security and peace around the world.

“This action does nothing to support Gaza
or our push for peace and stability
in the Middle East.”

Downing Street said security is being reviewed
across the defence estate
and that the Government is working
closely with police.]

It is a moral action.

We're supporting the terrorist Israeli state, so any attempt to prevent this should be welcomed by everyone.

"It is a moral action."


No these punks are breaking the law.

"No these punks are breaking the law."

Committing a minor infraction, in order to prevent mass murder is a grey area of the law.

How entitled can they be, to assume their pet cause is worth risking their lives for, and is worth the time, resources, and money which will spin out of their temper tantrum.

Hopefully they get footed with the bill.

The good news is they have highlighted how easy it is to access so that can be remedied post haste, the bad news for them is that it will change nothing in Palestine so they wasted their time

[bots]

they are being designated a terror group, so, they will end up in jail if they do the same again

The planes they vandalised were actually used to fight what's left of ISIS ... but these particular "protesters" probably like ISIS ...

I keep telling you, laws made that you think are hurting the right people today, can be easily turned against you, tomorrow. Such a short-sighted attitude.
