Stop the Jewish National Fund is an international campaign aimed at ending the role of the Jewish National Fund (Keren Kayemet LeIsrael/JNF-KKL) in:
*the on-going displacement of indigenous Palestinians from their land
*the theft of their property
*the funding of historic and present day colonies, and
*the destruction of the natural environment
The Stop the JNF campaign in Canada has recently had some successes. Since a story critical of the JNF was published on the Canadian Broadcasting Company and a parliamentary petition posted on 9 January 2019 in support of the complaint filed to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) and to Ministers of National Revenue, Noam Chomsky and Diana Buttu signed among the 1400 signers.
JNF canada has finally put out a statement and here is an Independent Jewish Voices op-ep in the times of israel in support of Stop the JNF – Canada.
The JNF continues to serve as a global fundraiser for Israeli ethnic cleansing, occupation and apartheid. Despite its historic role in a State institution of Israel (the Israel Land Authority) and in institutionalized racism and apartheid, the JNF and its affiliate organizations enjoy charitable status in over 50 countries and many also enjoy consultative status with the United Nations. In addition to the ongoing struggles against the JNF-KKL in Palestine, the campaign is underway in Canada, France, Britain, South Africa and the United States.
The film Enduring Roots: Over a Century of Resistance to the Jewish National Fund directed by Alex Safron details the history and workings of the Jewish National Fund as well as historic and ongoing Palestinian resistance to the colonization of their land.
