05-01-07 - Congress letter pushes JNF as NGO "We are writing to express our strong support for the application by the Jewish National Fund-United States (JNF-US) for consultative status at the U.N. Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC)," said the letter initiated by Reps. Jan Schakowsky (D-Ill.); Robert Wexler (D-Fla.); and Thaddeus McCotter (R-Mich.). It was addressed to ambassadors of nations currently serving on ECOSOC. Here's a little bit about the JNF and Israel : " The key law is "Israeli Land Law," which set up a government-appointed body called the "Israel Land Authority" (ILA), controlled by a board partly appointed by the government and partly by the World Zionist Organization through its subsidiary branch, the "Jewish National Fund" (JNF), to control all the land owned by the state. A key paragraph in the law states that ILA will administer its land according to the regulations of JNF. The regulations of the latter strictly prohibit all non-Jews from benefiting in any way from JNF land and by this simple trick the Israeli state lands (92 percent of the area of Israel) were removed from the use of non-Jews.
