The Presbyterian Church is a Business, not an gathering of
believers.<br>
<br>
What they provide primarily is entertainment, albeit that of<br>
a sort of masochistic variety.<br>
<br>
Why not pursue HP?<br>

<p>Destroying more than 18,000 homes since

<p class="p1">We all know the Israel Lobby
has a way of making people of conscience
feel real lonely standing up.</p>
<p class="p1">And the Presbyterian Church is
coming under intense pressure from the
Lobby to say “no” to divestment.
Supporters of this non-violent,
time-honored tactic are being labeled
“Retrograde.” “Demonizing.” “Offensive.”
And, of course, “anti-semitic.”</p>
<p class="p1"><i>But think about it for a
moment – what are they’re really saying
beneath those buzzwords? To pro-actively
invest in occupation.</i></p>
<p class="p1">It’s cynical, but sadly,
effective.</p>
<p class="p1"><b>A</b><b>nd the most helpful
thing we can do – our obligation, even –
is to show them who really supports
divestment.</b> To show that we’re
Jewish, Muslim, atheist, young, old,
wealthy, working class, men, women,
activists, educators, students and more.</p>
<p class="p1"><b>And that we know investing
in the daily human suffering of
occupation is wrong.</b></p>
