The Curch of England voted last Feb to divest from Caterpiller for its participation in Israeli home demolitions. Well it was a success! They voted for it overwhelmingly! 2.2 million pounds is being withdrawn.

I'm not surprised that the Church of England would divest from something like that, it is largely left wing. I'm more surprised they invested in the first place.
