MN BBC vs. SBI Lawsuit, Past Events

Take Action: Tell the Members of the MN State Board of Investment to Stop Investing in Israeli Apartheid!

November 28, 2011 MN Break the Bonds

You do not need to be a Minnesota resident to

participate in this action!

On November 29, 2011, the MN Break the Bonds Campaign (MN BBC) is serving a lawsuit on the Minnesota State Board of Investment (SBI), seeking an order from the court directing the SBI to immediately divest from Israel Bonds and to refrain from purchasing more.

Minnesota’s investments in Israel Bonds help fund Israel’s illegal settlement activities in the occupied Palestinian territories, as well as the imposition of a system of apartheid. Furthermore, we believe these investments are illegal according to state and international law.

Join us to demand that the four members of the SBI–Governor Dayton, Secretary of State Ritchie, Attorney General Swanson, and State Auditor Otto–realign Minnesota with state and international law by divesting from Israel Bonds!

Don’t wait–this important action will only take you 30 seconds. Click here to send one e-mail to all four board members to show your support for divestment from Israel Bonds today!

Thank you so much for your participation.

Divest for Justice in Palestine!

We are Palestinians, Americans, Jews, Christians, Muslims, students, professionals, parents, community members and allies working together to bring Palestine-centric education to Minnesota in order to promote justice and human rights.

We believe:

We, the people of Minnesota, have the moral obligation to make sound investments that will not aid the oppression of any one race, creed or people. Minnesota’s investment in Israel supports an apartheid system in both Israel and the Occupied Territories that causes thousands of civilian deaths, many of whom are children, and which involves the widespread abuse of human rights. This system defies a ruling by the International Court of Justice as well as more than 65 UN Resolutions, and violates the Fourth Geneva Convention. We demand that the state of Minnesota act on its good conscience and support the breaking of economic ties with the apartheid state of Israel.

We say, Minnesota divest from Israel Bonds, Divest for Justice in Palestine!
