| Background Information | Justice Not Vengeance (JNV) is a non-violent anti-war campaign. Its current focus is opposition to the US-led War on Terror, and solidarity with the British Muslim community, alongside resistance to the perceived challenge to civil liberties by anti-terror legislation, and support for multilateral disarmament and international law. The group was initially formed to protest against British involvement in Operation Desert Storm, before adopting, as ARROW, a wider remit against the arms trade and Western foreign and defence policies.
