take stronger sanctions against agricultural enter-
prises which lease their land to be cultivated or
their "crop on the trees" or "in the field" to be
harvested by Arabs. In the Council there are repre-
sentatives of the Ministry of Agriculture, the Colo-
nization Department of the Jewish Agency, the Israel
Land Management and representatives of all the trends
in the settlement movement. Minister of Agriculture
Uzan pointed out the gravity of the situation and
demanded that radical measures be taken to prevent
deals of land leasing." 149
We note from the quotes presented above that the Zionist institu-
tions of the Yishuv, represented in the Supreme Council on Settlement Law,
and the formative elements of the State are still operative as another
state within the State of Israel. These represent the "State" apparatus
of the settlers in the period of pre-statehood. It is there role until
today to maintain control over land and determine land use policies speci-
fically in the rural sector. It is these institutions as well as their
leaders and directors that are outraged most by the massive penetration of
Arabs to Jewish agricultural production.
The prevalence of labor-Zionist ideology --the principle of Hebrew
work -- in the Israeli agricultural rural sector has been interpreted in
terms of the special attachment of Jews to land in Palestine due to their
alienation from the land in "Diaspora". However, the same emphasis on con-
trolling agricultural land by the settlers themselves persists also in
South Africa. One therefore tends to interpret it more as a peculiar char-
acteristic of colonial-settler regimes; control over rural land being stra-
tegically crucial for keeping the native population separated from their
means of subsistence, in a state of dependency and, thus, kept under con-
trol. - تاريخ
