🚨 Elbit Systems plans to attend a fundraiser for cancer tomorrow evening on the Boston Common. This in spite of the fact that Elbit's weapons are being used to destroy Gaza's hospitals and deny entry of lifesaving medications into Gaza. When Elbit Shows up, we show up! 🧵[1/7]
Wells Fargo is the lead bank on the current $100 million loan to Elbit and previously initiated additional loans to the company.
Cutting of these lines of credit is essential to shutting down Elbit.
After being forced to abandon their Cambridge, MA office in August in the face of relentless direct actions and weekly protests -- now is the time to escalate pressure against Elbit in every way.
These are the banks funding Elbit Systems, Israel's largest weapons manufacturer. Elbit provides Israel with 85% of its drones and land based military equipment. #ShutElbitDown

There have been numerous autonomously organized events at the forest recently. Including educational plant walks and social gatherings.
Tomorrow people are protesting at the intersection near the forest to raise awareness about Enbridge's destruction. #StopProjectMaple
We just released a new health impact study about the fracked gas compressor station in Brookfield, CT. The study raises serious concerns about the proposed expansion of the facility. Read the full report here: https://t.co/7abiKkVaeH

Direct Action. Last night, the American Association of People w/ Disabilities was holding their ADA celebration & Wells Fargo was supposed to speak. Wells Fargo gives loans to Elbit Systems, the Dakota Access Pipeline, ICE detention centers, & private prisons. We said NO.
As the planet experiences its hottest days in 100,000 years, as the "apocalypse glacier" melts, as forest fires rage everywhere -- why is @BONDbuild constructing a fossil fuel pipeline??
CALL Bond and demand they cut their contract with Enbridge now: 617-387-3400
There are trucks from @BONDbuild on site. They have worked on other Enbridge projects before and appear to be the general contractor for the expansion in Lincoln.
CALL and demand that they cut ties with Enbridge! 617-387-3400
UPDATE. Someone just locked down to the back of a machine that was clearing trees in the Lincoln Forest. Enbridge's work on the site has stopped. We will defend this land! We will #StopProjectMaple!
