    Divest or Peace.Invest in the Future.

    Lev Hirshhorn

    We Are Inspired byYour CourageHaving escaped Vienna in 1938, my

    grandparents taught me that Jews

    must stand against injustice every-

    where. As a Jewish service core

    member, I am committed to working

    or justice within my own community.

    I am inspired by the Presbyterian

    Church (USA)s courage in working

    to ensure that its policies reect its

    own commitment to social witness.

    Let Our Children Inherit a MorePeaceul WorldAs a Jewish American married to a Muslim Palestinian

    armer, I know the value o inter aith relationships based

    on love and compassion. I have seen, with my own eyes,

    the Motorola security cameras surrounding the settle-

    ments built on my husbands land. Investment alone,

    without divestment rom oppression, will not ensure a

    more peaceul world or our daughter.

    Please vote to add Caterpillar, MotorolaSolutions, and Hewlett-Packard to theMRTI divestment list.

    Please vote to afrm the churchscontinued commitment to engagement andsupport of peaceful pursuits in Israel/

    Palestine.

    standing with those whose voices

    have so long been silenced.

    Rabbi Brian Walt

    Support Jewishand PalestinianFriendshipI grew up in a fercely and

    passionately Zionist amily

    in South Arica. I witnessed

    the destruction that comes

    rom hate and oppression.

    Today, I know that the uture

    o Jews, Christians, and

    Muslims in the Holy Land

    depends upon ending our

    support or the occupation.

    Hedy Epstein

    As a Holocaust Survivor,I Support DivestmentI grew up in Nazi occupied Germany,

    and both my parents were killed in

    Auschwitz. I know how important it is

    to stand up against injustice beore

    its too late. We need to do more than

    just condemn occupation. We need todivest.

    Rabbi Lynn Gottlieb

    Its Not Kosher to Proft romViolenceAs one o the frst ten women rabbis, I have pursued

    conict transormation in Israel/Palestine or 45 years.

    The Torah instructs us, Love thy neighbor as thysel.

    As one human amily, we should work or peace, not proft

    rom violence.
