An intensive lobbying campaign is underway in the United States to convince board members of the Jewish National Fund in Israel to block the authorization of land purchases in the West Bank.
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.
