Don't be silly. Clearly the media and the court disagrees with your

What about it?
Here is another similar case.
"This afternoon, Tuesday 22 May, at Bristol Crown Court, the trial of
two Oxford peace activists Philip Pritchard and Toby Olditch (known as
the 'B52 Two') concluded with the jury returning a unanimous verdict
of not-guilty- in less than three hours. The two were charged with
conspiring to cause criminal damage at RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire
on 18 March 2003 when they tried to safely disable US B52 bombers to
prevent them from bombing Iraq[1]. The court heard the two men acted
to prevent damage to life and property in Iraq, and war crimes by the
aggressors."
What this opens up is the possibility of not being found guilty in law
of damaging cars and glueing locks, to name but two.
