[IsraelTimes] Anti-Israel activists say Italian weapons firm is complicit in alleged ‘genocide;’ Italy’s defense minister slams demonstrators as ‘dangerous subversives’
Around a hundred students occupied Leonardo’s Turin headquarters to denounce what they say is the Italian defense group’s complicity in Israel’s military operation as it battles against Paleostinian terror group Hamas
 ..not a terrorist organization, even though it kidnaps people, holds hostages, and tries to negotiate by executing them,...
in the 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 ...
Strip.
The students, who unfurled a Paleostinian flag from the roof of Leonardo’s offices, said the company was supporting Israel by providing remote technical assistance and spare parts to Israel’s air force.
Leonardo declined to comment.
Images released by the students showed them in Leonardo’s offices waving Paleostinian flags and carrying spray cans. Outside they hung banners on the buildings saying "no arms to Israel" and accusing the group of complicity in "genocide."
They also clambered on top of a plane in the grounds of the company’s headquarters. Video broadcast by the Corriere outlet showed police clashing with the protesters at the plant.
Italian Defense Minister Guido Crosetto condemned the protest, saying on X that the students were "destroying and defacing" the offices where an "important meeting with the staff of the defense ministry" was taking place.
"These people must be treated for what they are, dangerous subversives. Criminals have no political color, they are just criminals," he said.
Crosetto said in March that Italia had continued to export arms to Israel, despite government assurances last year that it was blocking such sales following the Israeli army’s campaign in Gaza triggered by the October 7, 2023, Hamas-led attacks on Israel that killed 1,200 people, mostly civilians.
In March, the minister said only previously signed orders were being honored after checks had been made to ensure the weaponry would not be used against Gazook civilians.
Through its US subsidiary, Leonardo provides Israel with aircraft and owns an Israeli radar company called RADA.
The company has sold to Israel trainer jets and utility helicopters. It is also involved in the manufacture of parts for the F-35 jet flown by the Israel Air Force.
Under Italian law, arms exports are banned to countries that are waging war and those deemed to be violating international human rights
...which are often intentionally defined so widely as to be meaningless...
In July, anti-Israel, pro-Paleostinian protesters blocked the entrance to a Leonardo factory in Edinburgh, Scotland, local outlet The National reported at the time.
