Keepin' it radical in 2025
Thursday January 9
Ferra Picket
5am at 344 New Cleveland Road, Tingalpa
Let’s slow Ferra down! This company is responsible for the mechanism that makes it possible to drop a bomb from a F35 fighter jet. They must be stopped!
Ferra Engineering, located in Tingalpa, manufactures complex weapons parts for various weapons companies, including Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and Thales.
More than 70% of the products made in their Tingalpa factory are exported internationally, including over 100 different parts for Lockheed Martin’s F-35 fighter jet. Ferra are the sole supplier of the Alternate Missions Equipment (AME weapons adapters that attach and release bombs from the F-35. Every F-35 in production and currently in operation requires weapons adapters manufactured by Ferra Engineering. Ferra is also the global supplier of the Extended Range Wing Kits for Boeing’s JDAM systems.
Israel has ordered 25 new F-35s from Lockheed Martin and continues to require more of Boeing’s JDAM systems in their attacks on Gaza, and Queensland’s support of these companies is causing unfathomable devastation.
We demand the Queensland government Stop Arming Israel - stop war profiteering and end all investments and collaborations with genocide profiteers!

Protest for Palestine
4pm, King George Square [Facebook event link]
As the genocide in Gaza continues we are calling on our government to demand a permanent ceasefire, we are calling for sanctions and divestment. In the face of adversity we do not back down, we rise, time and time again and we are fuelled by the ongoing Palestinian resistance.
We need to continue to demand liberation for Palestine. Call on our government to cut ties with Israel. Call to stop the genocide! And freedom for Palestine! Boycott, Divest and Sanctions Now!
