Will the Presbyterian Church keep investing in the occupation?
The Presbyterian Church (USA) (PCUSA) will vote on a resolution to divest from Caterpillar, Hewlett-Packard and Motorola Solutions at the General Assembly to be held June 30 - July 7, 2012 in Pittsburgh. The church is considering divestment because "products made by those companies are used in nonpeaceful ways in the Israel-Palestine conflict" and dialogue and shareholder actions with the companies have not yielded results.

Recently other socially-responsible investment funds have divested from Caterpillar, Inc: buswk.co Many American Jewish rabbis endorse divestment: www.rabbisletter.org Learn more: www.endtheoccupation.org http rachelcorriefoundation.org www.theipmn.org http www.whoprofits.org http www.bdsmovement.net @jncatron @AbirKopty @ThisisGaza @ahmedmoor See CBS 60 Minutes story with background on "Kairos Palestine" here: www.cbsnews.com
