While the information provided in the article is important, the article is also totally biased as the organization and its many functions, especially in foresting, are not truly discssued. gidonb 03:02, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Feel free to provide more information; so far this page does not look biased to me, so I've removed the NPOV warning; can't leave something up for six months without action on it... --Martin Wisse 01:11, 27 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Request: More on reforestation

Could someone provide further information on the sucesses of reforestation attributed to the KKL? Also, it would be splendid if comparisons with similar tree planting programs elsewhere (Central Asia, Iceland, Rapa Nui, Cape Verde Islands) could be provided. //Big Adamsky 21:46, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

In an effort to offer a more rounded picture of the political role of the JNF in Israel I've added a line with a typical Palestinian point of view and some analysis of the JNF's role as a key element in the modern Israeli state including weblinks to supporting evidence from the JNF's own website. --Tom Godwin 13:59, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
