According to a recent survey, 81 percent of Israelis are in favor of the Jewish National Fund's (JNF) long standing policy of selling land only to Jews, which was currently being debated in court. Only 10 percent objected to the policy while nine percent refused to answer or were undecided, according to Ynet.
The JNF's money is raised by donation in the Diaspora with the express purpose of helping Jews settle the land of Israel.
Mitchell Barak, managing-director of the KEEVOON Research and Strategy company that conducted the survey, said, "This poll shows that when it comes to the actual land of Israel - Israelis are definitely not liberal. It is clear that JNF's 100-year-old policy of raising money from Diaspora Jewry and selling only to Jews in Israel, is widely supported by all sectors of the Israeli Hebrew-speaking population."
