[image: Most of Congress 'Likes War' and Opposes Ending US Support for
Saudi War in Yemen]Raytheon’s weapons, technology and its 50 year
relationship with the brutal Saudi regime have devastated the people of
Yemen.
Meanwhile Raytheon is pressuring the U.S. government to let is sell even
more of its bombs to Saudi Arabia as its profits skyrocket. (Boston Globe

As the host to this behemoth of the military industrial complex,
Massachusetts is the technology hub for Saudi Arabia’s war crimes against
people who have done us no harm.

*Right here in Massachusetts, Raytheon goes to war together with Saudi
Arabia – to create the “greatest human rights crisis in the world today” in
Yemen*
