Target Barclays

Saturday 25th February, 1pm, 139-142 North Street, Brighton

For enquiries contact  brightontubas@gmail.com or  smashedo@riseup.net

Brighton Jordan Valley Solidarity, Brighton and Hove Palestine Solidarity
Campaign and Smash EDO are calling on Palestine solidarity and anti
militarists activists to join a picket of Barclays on Saturday the 25th of
February at 1pm.

Barclays Bank have along history of profiting from suffering and war, and
most people will be aware of their involvement in apartheid South Africa
in the 70's and 80's. Today the bank profits from Israel's apartheid
system in Palestine.

Barclays is the only major British high street bank with significant
investments in Israel, holding shares in 8 Israeli companies: Tower
Semiconductor, Gilat Satellite Networks, Ceregon Networks Ltd, Ituran
Location and Control Limited, Radware Ltd, Ezchip Semiconductor Ltd,
Mellanox Technologies Ltd and Teva. They also invest invests in a number
of companies linked to Israel's settlements: Unilever, which owns
Beigel&Beigel, a company based in Barkan settlement industrial zone;
France Telecom, which owns the Orange brandname (Orange's franchisee,
Partner Communications, owns mobile phone antennas in the settlements);
G4S, which provides services to Israeli and West Bank prisons and police
stations; Motorola which supplies security equipment and communications
equipment to the Israeli army, settlements and for use in the apartheid
wall; and F&C Reit, owner of settlement real estate through British Israel
Investments. The bank also owns shares in Tesco and Sainsbury, High Street
stores that sell settlement produce in the UK.

Barclays is also the largest global investor in the arms trade and holds
shares in several companies supplying arms to Israel: Smiths, Rolls Royce,
Meggit, Raytheon, BAE, Chemring and Ultra Electronics. Barclays provides
market maker services to ITT Exelis, the mother company of Brighton's
local arms company EDO, on the NYSE.

Barclays eventually pulled out of apartheid South Africa in 1986, after
years of consumer pressure. Now is the time to stop profiteering from
Israeli apartheid.

We encourage groups to take action against Barclays across the country.

Zionism is the cancer

20.02.2012 11:35

As with many Zionist fronts, a 'nice' sounding anglo name is used to
mask a hideous reality - that the people behind the front are Zionists. The case with the well recognized and respected (to the extent that Banks deserve respect for anything good) name of Barclay is no exception. It is a name known throughout the world and is a historic banking. .

a) Began in 1690 in City of London;
b) Largest bank in the world in the 1930s; d) in the 1980s
it had more branches overseas than all major USA banks combined. - Obviously, no slouch in
the money-lenders-in-the-temple business.

SOME BELIEVE THERE ARE LINKS TO MOSSAD *.
Sir Martin Wakefield Jacomb .
"Britain's Lord Carrington...key controller of the Mossad...long been associated with Barclays
Barclays financial assistance allegedly props up the vile regime of Robert Mugabe in Zimbabwe. more .Mugabe = Mossad at more.

Barclays is the 'First among equals' in ownership of shares of USA public traded firms:
Total amount in major companies owned by Barclays is $ ONE TRILLION USA DOLLARS -
more . Many of the companies are of great significance in the USA : General Electric , Altria - the Tobacco giant , WalMart, ExxonMobil, Microsoft and so forth. Just to use these companies as examples - there are many more - one finds that they all are alleged to behave in very questionable activities from time to time: General Electric: more . Human Experiments
using radiation. ExxonMobil: more Torture of Villagers in Aceh.

Microsoft: Bill Gates Foundation gives millions to International Planned Parenthood in China
which runs the One-Child-Per-Family.

Altria - formerly Phillip Morris tobacco giant: Everyone knows the tobacco firms engaged in a vast, decades long pattern of lies and mass death to the consumers of their product.

Walmart: Vast corporate big brother internal spying and china slavery: more and more
Again -These are a mere 5 of the companies that have as major owner Barclays...
Protestors battle Altria or General Electric or whatever - yet never see the common thread running through all of them - Barclays and behind the Nazi Eagle Symbol of Barclays lies the HOUSE OF ROTHSCHILD:

BARCLAYS LEADER IS MARCUS AGIUS - more MARCUS AGIUS IS MARRIED TO KATHERINE ROTHSCHILD - more .

Katherine Rothschild is the daughter of "Edmond de Rothschild of the Rothschild Banking Family of England" : more .Among other things the whole natural wealth of the Canadian Province of Newfoundland was handed over to a consortium of companies from the UK led by Edmond de Rothschild

This is pretty much what is happening on a national scale in the USA when one thinks of the vast power - the absolute economic synergy - of having one family involved in the control or certainly INFLUENCE of so many firms that make up a large part of the daily life of the average USA citizen, most of who have never been allowed to hear of the Rothschilds in the controlled media.

FURTHER: Barclays is only ONE Rothschild linked entity. One must therefore imagine the effect of the numerous other corporate shells behind which hide the arch-Zionist i overlords with that last name or their in-laws with different names.see: Atticus Capital: Nathaniel Rothschild non-executive Vice-Chairman owns major shares in ConocoPhillips , the NYSE , the Deutsche Bourse or german stock exchange and now the Bombay Stock Exchange
ConocoPhillips is also owned heavily by Rockefeller Financial Services:

One and only one example of the far-reaching influence of this economic cancer: Senator Tom Harkin has his wife sit on the Board of ConocoPhillips - he forgot to add $200k in funds from this arrangement in his tax disclosure. The power in USA affairs is near absolute. Who else , just as an example sits on the Board of ConocoPhillips? Richard Armitage - arch neocon. more . Richard Armitage outed Valerie Plame as a CIA agent. more . What happened to Mr. Armitage for doing this? He was allowed to be the leader of a Homeland Security firm named Man Tech International as noted on the previous nndb link.

Man Tech International provides cyber security to US Embassies around the world. How does that happen with a company led by a man that allegedly leaks the names of CIA agents and gets caught? google Man Tech International Embassy Security . more or google Man Tech International Armitage. Neocon congressman Rick Renzi is in corruption trouble. more .His father Eugene Renzi is on the Board of Man Tech International -

Who is a major shareholder of Man Tech International using its Swiss and offshore island banks? Barclays

CONCLUSION:

As the saying goes "for every hundred men hacking at the branches of the tree of evil, there is
only one hacking at the roots". The branches are the corporate shells, Barclays, Altria, Walmart
and so forth. THE ROOT OF THE EVIL IS NAMED ROTHSCHILD....

The end to the Middle East conflict

Say the unsay-able - the fault of this is the Jews, the sooner they leave the region the sooner the conflict in Palestine is over.

all due respect to Jordon Solidarity and Smash EDO, but the sooner anti-semitic nutjobs like commenter 'viva palestina' leave indymedia and go back to David Ike - land of the Rothschild reptilian jewhaters, the better for all of us.

Palestinian solidarity does not need this shit.

" anti-semitic nutjobs " ?

Unlike some people who work for Palestinian liberation I am not afraid to call it like it is. The cause of the conflict in Palestine is the Jews and until Palestine is once again free of them that conflict will remain. The Jewish population in Palestine is almost entirely an immigrant one and their return to their countries of origin is quite simply the minimum required to ensure peace in the region.

The Americans have a moral responsibility to pay the costs of their resettlement because of the financial support they have provided since 1948 that has prolonged the conflict there. There will be conflict in Palestine up to the day the Jews leave, America has the money to fund the Israeli war and repression machine, it should use that money to cover the costs of relocating the Jews to their own countries and finally solve the conflict in the region once and for all.
