The management of the Jewish National Fund will vote Sunday on the controversial proposal that would allow it to buy land in the West Bank, even in areas of remote Jewish settlements.
In February the JNF approved a policy change allowing such purchases, which could potentially expand settlements, but said further debate was necessary on the areas where acquisitions might be made. Preferred areas have been chosen, though land will not be bought in the northern West Bank near the cities Nablus and Jenin, where settlements are few.
The proposal to be voted on Sunday adopts the opinion of retired Judge Yosef Alon, who says the JNF can operate in the West Bank, including activities such as forestation and educational initiatives. The heart of the dispute is the clause “in all areas under the jurisdiction of the government of Israel.”
