On June 15, members of the Presbyterian Church general assembly will be meeting to vote on, among other issues, whether the church should stick by its decision to divest from Israel. Although the Assembly decided two years ago to begin initiate a process of selective divestment from companies doing business with Israel, a number of groups within the church are looking to overturn that decision.

A great clearinghouse of detailed information regarding the upcoming Presbyterian vote—and all things related to divestment from Israel—can be found at the informative Committee for Responsible Peace in the Middle East Web site. It’s worth checking out.
