Mission and vision
Betar's mission is simple: To train young Jews who are aware of the needs of their people. Active young people who seek to overcome the adversities that the Jews go through and be ready to maintain the dignified and meaningful continuity of the Jewish people.
Betar also seeks to educate janijim so that they fly into what Jabotinsky believed as the “ideal Jew”, Jews proud of their Judaism, clean in their dress and in their way of life, examples of nobility and sacrifice, leaders in their communities but at the same time same time, willing to do whatever it takes for the Jewish state
.
Today, after the creation of the Jewish state, Betar's objective can be summarized as: "To maintain the dignified and meaningful continuity of the Jewish people", using as a means and an end at the same time: Aliyah
The 10 ideological points
EACH PERSON
HE IS A KING
EVERY INDIVIDUAL IS A KING
First of all we must educate our janijim to be good human beings, we educate ourselves to be noble people, good children ... that our presence in this life does not go unnoticed but rather that we leave a positive mark. The second step is to be good and good Jews zionists
JEWISH AND DEMOCRATIC STATE
EVERY INDIVIDUAL IS A KING
According to Jabotinsky: “Every town has its mission. We Jews are no different. In order to contribute to the growth of humanity, the Jewish people need a state for their nation ”. A Jewish state implies that it is ruled by Jews.
We unconditionally defend that the state is also democratic, where all ethnic groups, religions and cultures can exist, being a clear example to the world, especially the Middle East.
JEWISH MAJORITY IN
ISRAEL
EVERY INDIVIDUAL IS A KING
As betarim we seek to maintain a "Jewish and Democratic" status.
The only reason that Israel remains a Jewish and democratic state is because there is a Jewish majority in Israel.
That is why so that this never happens, we must dedicate all our efforts, all our energies in the realization of a single word: the alia.
HADAR
EVERY INDIVIDUAL IS A KING
The Hadar is a set of values that represent the morals and ethics that a betari must have.
"Hadar" is a word that has no translation. In Spanish the closest thing to this word is the “majesty” that comes from a king, because each one of us is a king, each one deserves to live like a king.
Being Betari is something that goes beyond the physical limits of the tnua. Being Betari implies seeking nobility, strength and excellence in all areas of our life.
MONISM
EVERY INDIVIDUAL IS A KING
Monism or "Jad Nes" is that the entire Betar movement has to focus on the same ideal as the main one. Betar has to focus on only one fight, Zionism
SOCIAL CONSCIENCE
EVERY INDIVIDUAL IS A KING
Jabotinsky used to say: "each individual is a king." This is why it raises a social conscience based on "The five memim." Five basic needs that every Jew had to satisfy: (housing, food, clothing, education and health)
BETARI DISCIPLINE
EVERY INDIVIDUAL IS A KING
For an organization to function well, it is necessary that all its members work in perfect harmony and synchronization, much as if each one were a musician, and together we were an orchestra, always working in a disciplined way and respecting superiors.
HEBREW LANGUAGE
EVERY INDIVIDUAL IS A KING
It is the only and eternal language that can unify all the Jewish people.
Jabotinsky stated that for a Betari to speak Hebrew, otherwise they would not be a full Betari.
At Betar we believe that the Hebrew language should be the beginning and education of every Jewish child; a young Jew who does not know Hebrew is not a "complete" Jew even though he is a member of Betar.
JALUTZIUT
EVERY INDIVIDUAL IS A KING
Someone Pioneer is someone who leads the way, someone who leads by example for their ideals. In the diaspora, “Jalutziut” is manifested, above all, in the ability and courage of each Betari to change the course of their history and return to their home in Israel. In Israel, pioneerism manifests itself in doing things that not only do not produce personal happiness but also make a significant contribution to the development of our people.
ACTIVISM
EVERY INDIVIDUAL IS A KING
The betari carries the flame of revolt, which is nothing more than telling the truth and showing justice. Our displays of activism must be full of Fairies, representing in our acts the whole community since non-Jews do not understand internal organizational differences
Betar Symbology
Zeev Jabotinsky
Zeev Jabotinsky was born on October 18, 1880 in Odessa, Russia. He was a writer, translator, journalist, military man, and above all a Zionist leader.
.
After the Kishinev Pogrom, Jabotinsky understands that the help of young people is essential for the creation of a Jewish state.
Jabotinsky was the first soldier of Yehuda, creating in 1915 with the help of Iosef Trumpeldor the Jewish Legion, a military unit made up of Zionist volunteers willing to fight alongside the British Empire to expel the Ottoman Empire of that time, Palestine.
In his quest for the creation of the Jewish state, he was the creator of the hague in Jerusalem, he was the first commander of the Irgun - "National Military Organization in the land of Israel", founder of Revisionist Zionism and above all, founder of the Zionist youth movement Betar, which is why we call it “Rosh Betar”.
