		<description><![CDATA[I take back everything bad I ever said about the Methodists.  This interesting article on &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.boston.com/news/local/articles/2007/07/31/methodists_concerned_with_israeli_occupation/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Israel Divestment&lt;/a&gt; just popped up in &lt;a href=&quot;http://del.icio.us/ppgg&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;PPGG Picks&lt;/a&gt; this morning.   ;)

The Methodists have put the occupation of Palestine on the agenda for their next national conference.   And Zionists are already lining up to whine about it.  The thought of hundreds of thousands of American church goers in leadership positions talking about justice in Palestine scares the hell out of Zionists.   

They&#039;re gonna need a pretty big fig leaf if Americans ever take a bite from the tree of knowledge - as it were.   It&#039;ll be Paradise Lost all over again.  (Secular humanist credentials in my other suit. )

&lt;blockquote&gt;&quot;It won&#039;t matter if it&#039;s another isolated, and from our perspective, misguided, effort to bring what they think is going to be improvement in the Middle East conflict, but if it triggers off other denominational initiatives of this kind, yes, it will matter,&quot; said Lawrence D. Lowenthal, executive director of the Greater Boston chapter of the American Jewish Committee.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

John Brown was a Methodist, weren&#039;t he?  There was a terrorist that started something and saw it through!  Is that what you&#039;re talking about 99?

Anyway, let&#039;s abolish injustice in Palestine.   It&#039;s as easy as turning the light on so that the Americans who support Israeli apartheid with their tax dollars can have the information they need.  We&#039;ll do the right thing if we can just get accurate information.  

The lack of justice in Palestine is the prime mover the whole war on tarra.]]></description>
