Where is the Bedouin Intifada?

25. The JNF is bound by its own charter to only sell to Jews

Their policy statement on this issue is:-

"The JNF is not the trustee of the general public in Israel. Its loyalty is given to the Jewish people in the Diaspora and in the state of Israel... The JNF, in relation to being an owner of land, is not a public body that works for the benefit of all citizens of the state. The loyalty of the JNF is given to the Jewish people and only to them is the JNF obligated. The JNF, as the owner of the JNF land, does not have a duty to practice equality towards all citizens of the state."

I don't know how we can take this any further. I think it is apparent to all but the most one-eyed chauvinist that only Jews will be permitted to buy the land in question.

"They're also not settlements."

I think the use of the term settlement is justified here. If the government of the US or Australia were to forcibly evict 40,000 indigenes from their traditional lands and replace them with whites-only townships then I would have no hesitation in describing those townships as settlements. I would also have no hesitation in describing defenders of such policies as racists.
