Stop the JNF - Press for investigation of the JNF's charitable status

stop the racist JNF

The Jewish National Fund (KKL-JNF) has announced that it will fund land confiscation in the West Bank, in defiance of international law. Its board of governors voted through the allocation of NIS 38 million to acquire land to expand Jewish-only settlements. All Israeli settlements, based on stolen Palestinian land in the West Bank, constitute a war crime under international law. Yet the British arm of KKL-JNF, JNF UK, continues to be a registered charity, enjoying tax exemption to raise funds for criminal activities in Palestine.

The JNF-KKL spearheaded recent attempts to force Palestinians from their homes in annexed East Jerusalem, activity condemned by a cross-party group of MPs, in signing EDM 529.

Here in Britain, JNF UK supports numerous KKL-JNF projects on both sides of the Green Line and is listed as KKL-JNF’s office in the UK. Much of JNF UK’s activities have been presented either as benign environmental projects or disguised through front organisations.

Your MP can ask the Attorney General to ensure their charity status is investigated.
