The UCC Divests From Israel

++The United Church of Christ voted to divest from companies who invest in the Israeli settlements.

++The Times of Israel reported last week that investments in Israel have dropped 50% since the divestment movement started. 

++That's why a major story in the Israeli press is that the Congress passed a law to outlaw any Divestment schemes in a trade pact.

++The New York Times is finally reporting that the American Jewish community is a player in the divestment movement.
