Northland Anti-War Coalition: Wars Come Home: A Suicide Every Day Among Vets
http://northlandantiwar.blogspot.com/2012/11/wars-come-home-suicide-every-day-among.html

Northland Anti-War Coalition: Presbyterian Church Votes to Divest
http://northlandantiwar.blogspot.com/2014/06/presbyterian-church-votes-to-divest.html

I am overjoyed to report that just moments ago, the Presbyterian Church (USA) just voted to divest $21 million from Hewlett-Packard, Motorola Solutions, and Caterpillar – three companies whose profits from the ongoing Israeli occupation have been extensively documented. This is an unbelievably fantastic - and brave - decision, grounded in the Presbyterians' deep sense of justice and commitment to human rights. Please click here to sign a Thank You Card.
