A vote by the organization’s Israel-based board of directors, scheduled for Thursday, April 22, will determine if the organization will make a historic pivot by beginning to purchase West Bank land for the purpose of expanding and developing existing Israeli settlements. JNF, an organization founded in 1901 to acquire and develop land in pre-state Israel for use by Jews, is known in Hebrew as Keren Kayemeth LeIsrael. KKL-JNF operates separately from JNF-USA, its American counterpart, which has broken away from the historic Israeli group over the past quarter century.
