Film Show: Not in our name

On Thursday  19th September Manchester PSC will be showing the excellent documentary film “Not In Our Name” by Gabrielle Tierney.

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 £350,00 worth of damage and were arrested. They denied nothing, yet the jury acquitted them of all charges.

‘Not in Our Name’ is a story of international solidarity and compartive politics between Northern Ireland and the Middle East. The film includes interviews to many of the Raytheon activists including journalist and activist Eamonn McCann, Tony Benn and Mark Steel.

The film will be followed by discussion and up-date on the Stop Arming Israel campaign.
