SUMMARY:Cut Ties with Genocide celebration  - Caterpillar Divestment
DESCRIPTION:Cut Ties with Genocide is a Washington State-led coalition of organizations led by Washington For Peace and Justice\, and Jewish Voice for Peace Seattle. It advocates that the state divest from holdings in companies that profit from the ongoing genocide\, ethnic cleansing\, and the illegal occupation of Palestinian land\, and commit to not purchasing Israel Bonds now or in the future. \nThe Rachel Corrie Foundation endorses the work of Cut Ties with Genocide. \nCut Ties with Genocide\, on Instagram\, shares that on the 23rd anniversary of the killing of peace activist Rachel Corrie\, the Washington State Treasurer’s office has fully divested from Caterpillar Inc.. Just months ago\, the Treasurer’s office held $62 million in Caterpillar bonds. Today\, that number is zero. \nCaterpillar manufactures the armored Caterpillar D9 armored bulldozer\, which has long been used by the Israeli military in demolitions in the occupied Palestinian territories. A Caterpillar bulldozer\, operated by Israeli soldiers\, was also the machine that killed Rachel Corrie\, a Washingtonian and peace activist\, in 2003. \nCome celebrate this historic victory with Cuts Times with Genocide on March 29\, 4-8pm\, at Reuben’s Brews in Seattle. \nRead more about praise for this work in the March 25 article in The Seattle Times\, “Advocates praise WA for selling off $62M in Caterpillar bonds“.
