Betar

Betar is a Jewish nationalist youth movement founded in 1923 by Ze'ev Jabotinsky. It promotes the idea of Jewish self-defense, cultural identity, and the establishment of a Jewish homeland in Israel. Members participate in educational activities, physical training, and patriotic events to foster a strong sense of Jewish pride and resilience. Over time, Betar has influenced modern Zionist efforts and has been involved in advocating for Israel’s security and sovereignty. Its philosophy emphasizes both cultural affirmation and preparedness to defend Jewish communities worldwide.
