The Jewish National Fund (JNF), also known by its Hebrew name Keren Kayemeth LeIsrael, (KKL) is an Israeli para-statal company established in 1901 in Britain for the sole purpose of the colonisation of Palestine by obtaining Palestinian land and, as ‘custodian for the Jewish people’, making it available solely for Jewish settlers. It claims to be the oldest green organisation in the world.

The JNF has offices in over 70 countries, in many of which it enjoys charitable or tax-exempt status, thereby being subsidised by taxpayers, which it justifies by raising funds for ‘environmental improvements’ in Israel. The JNF has been granted observer status by the United Nations to the Conferences of Parties (COP) to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).

However, the JNF remains established for the primary purpose of ethnic cleansing – to replace the indigenous Palestinian population of all religions with an entirely Jewish settler population. Throughout its existence, events demonstrate that it has practised ethnic cleansing resulting in apartheid – expelling and segregating Palestinians – often in collaboration with the Israeli military and other Zionist militias. Its manifestation as an environmental organisation is a recently adopted greenwash for its real purpose.[1]

The JNF has been described by the Israeli historian Ilan Pappe as "a colonialist agency of ethnic cleansing" [2]
