Over the last three days, SJP activists and Radical Youth have picketed Oscmar's factories of death on Shaddocks Street in solidarity with the US Campaign to End the Israeli Occupation of Palestine and the International Day of Action to Eliminate All Forms Of Violence Against Women.

Oscmar well known for their production of weapons training simulators, and exports to the Israeli Defence Force, US military, India, Colombia, the UK among others was chosen for protest activity because they received the 2005 Destructive Industry Connected to Killing Award. After blood stains magically appeared on their white walls during the first picket, police officers flooded the scene, in all at least 8 cop cars. The very reasonable boss cop then proceeded to give one SJP a Trespass notice. Leaflets which asked workers to seek new employment were distributed amongst the cars of the Oscmar employees. Chants included,
"Oscmar-Profits for murder"
"Ho Ho Ho, Oscmars Gotta Go"
"1234 You Support Illegal Wars, 5678 Quit your Jobs and Stop the Hate"
"For Peace and Justice, Quit Your Jobs"
"Money For Murder-Training For Death"
"We wont shut up till you give up. Quit your jobs."

The pickets ended this Friday as the Worker's Charter "Freedom bus" rolled up to collect support on their way to the KFC stop work this evening.

A Good Time was had by all (except Oscmar and the angry Zionist who appeared on Friday).

You can email the Oscmar scum bags to tell them how you feel. Ask them if it's fun making the equipment that human rights abusers use to train how to abuse human rights as best as they humanly can.

This was a bloody waste of time on your part. You guys need to get real jobs and stop harrassing decent hardworking Oscmar workers. From what I saw most of the guys were there just to impress the cute palestinian looking chick.
