Dear friends,  <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

The Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) is under attack from the Israel Lobby for bringing to vote in their upcoming General Assembly later this month the issue of divesting from three U.S. firms that are profiting from the Israeli military occupation. The firms are Caterpillar Inc., Hewlett-Packard, and Motorola Solutions.  <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
