Nachala (organisation)
Nachala (Hebrew: עזה) is a radical Israeli settler organization that aids younger settlers and builds new Israeli outposts in the West Bank. Their ambition is for Israel to annex both the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.

The fund was reportedly to collect and then disburse funds to Jewish settlers in order to purchase Palestinian land in the West Bank and Jordan Valley. A member of Nachala reported that they have sent representatives to Florida to help raise money for the organization, and receive funding from several groups in the United States including Americans for a Safe Israel.

Hebrew
Hebrew (; ; ) is a Northwest Semitic language of the Afroasiatic language family. Historically, it is one of the spoken languages of the Israelites and their longest-surviving descendants, the Jews and Samaritans. It was largely preserved throughout history as the main liturgical language of Judaism (since the Second Temple period) and Samaritanism. Hebrew is the only Canaanite language still spoken today, and serves as the only truly successful example of a dead language that has been revived. It is also one of only two Northwest Semitic languages still in use, with the other being Aramaic. The earliest examples of written Paleo-Hebrew date back to the 10th century BCE. Nearly all of the Hebrew Bible is written in Biblical Hebrew, with much of its present form in the dialect that scholars believe flourished around the 6th century BCE, during the time of the Babylonian captivity. For this reason, Hebrew has been referred to by Jews as ''Lashon Hakodesh'' (, ) since ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Proposed Israeli Annexation Of The West Bank
The proposed Israeli annexation of the West Bank, or parts thereof, has been considered by Israeli politicians since the area was captured and occupied by Israel during the 1967 Six-Day War. East Jerusalem was the first part of the West Bank to be annexed; it was ''de facto'' annexed following its occupation by Israel in 1967, and ''de jure annexed'' following the 1980 Jerusalem Law. Annexation of the Jordan Valley, first proposed in the 1967 Allon Plan, was announced by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in September 2019 as his plan, subject to the outcome of the September 2019 Israeli legislative election. Israeli law has been applied to Israeli settlements throughout the West Bank, leading to a system of "enclave law" and claims of "creeping annexation". Annexation of the West Bank would be condemned as illegal by the United Nations and would break international law.
