These companies fund genocide in Darfur -- please divest!

You may have seen this commercial on television.  The group SaveDarfur.org released a creative television ad that asked point blank: are you funding genocide?  If so, take responsibility:

As listed on the Save Darfur web site, these are the companies that are funding the genocide there:

PetroChina, A Chinese oil company, is one of the worst companies in funding the genocide. With PetroChina's help, the government of Sudan uses its oil revenue to provide arms and funding for the genocide, rather than economic development for its people.

Of US-based investment firms, Franklin Templeton, JP Morgan Chase, Capital Group/American Funds, Fidelity, Vanguard, have the largest holdings in PetroChina.

I strongly encourage all of you to check your portfolio and divest from these companies ASAP.  Here are their stock symbols:

• PetroChina (PTR)
• Franklin Templeton (FEMDX)
• JP Morgan Chase (JPMCP.PK)
• Capital Group/American Funds (multiple)
• Fidelity (multiple)
• Vanguard (multiple)
