To the Right Honourable Archbishop of Canterbury ,<br>We, the undersigned, are Israeli citizens. We have all witnessed the occupation first hand. We are actively involved with numerous initiatives to end this occupation and to promote peace and dialog between Israelis and Palestinians. We would like to express our support of the synod call to disinvest from Caterpillar Inc. Furthermore, we support disinvestment from any company that profiteers from the occupation. In light of the ongoing human rights violations committed by our government in the occupied territories, we believe that sanctions against the occupation have a solid moral foundation. <br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>We would like to denounce all those who have labeled the synod members, including yourself, as Antisemitic. We regard their criticism as nationalist opportunism, which degrades the meaning of real Antisemitism. <br></strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> <br>In friendship,<br><br>(signatures) and "Yesh Gvul" (NGO against occupation)<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/israel/Story/0,,1708497,00.html">www.guardian.co.uk/israel...97,00.html</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br> <p></p><i></i>
