Yippe! There were these five activists on trial here for damaging a U.S. plane just before the war on Iraq began. They waited around the airport for the police with the intention of going to trial with the verdict of lawful excuse, they were acting to save lives, well today after 3 aborted trials and 3 years of waiting they were acquitted by a jury! See links for more details:
