  Hashomer Hatzair Inc. - HASHOMERHATZAIRHOME
Hashomer Hatzair is a youth movement, based on the principles of Progressive Zionism, Social Justice, Progressive Judaism and self-actualization, and committed to peace and equality.
Hashomer Hatzair believes firmly in social justice and community responsibility, and facilitates lasting and powerful group and individual friendships.
The history of Hashomer Hatzair in North America began in 1923 with the arrival from Europe of Jewish immigrants - members of the youth movement in their countries of origin.

 From Hashomer to the Israel Defense Forces Armed Jewish Defense in Palestine
Hashomer's condition, before undertaking to guard and secure any settlement, was that only Jewish laborers be employed in it.
Hashomer was thus able to regard these laborers as a reserve for guard duty and quickly organized its operations in a three-tiered hierarchy: a small core of founders (veterans of Bar Giora); a larger circle of active guards, members of Hashomer; and the Jewish laborers, who termed themselves a "labor legion", as reserves.
In 1913, the Hashomer leadership established relations with the institutions of the Zionist Organization in Europe, but this connection was disrupted in August 1914 when World War I broke out.

 The Kibbutz Artzi Federation
Hashomer Hatzair forthwith adopted a Zionist ideology and stressed the need for the Jewish people to normalize their lives by changing their economic structure (as merchants) and to become workers and farmers, who would settle in the Land of Israel and work the land as "chalutzim" (pioneers).
Hashomer Hatzair was active in leading resistance in the ghettoes, the forests and the concentration camps.
As the war ended and the remnants of European Jewry were freed from the death camps, members of Hashomer Hatzair were among the first to organize the "illegal" flight of the survivors across the borders of Europe and to take part in the illegal immigration to Palestine, whose gates had been barred by the British.

 Hashomer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hashomer (Hebrew) (השומר) ("The Guard") was a Jewish defense organization in Palestine founded in 1909.
The purpose of the Hashomer was to provide guard services for Jewish settlements in the Yishuv and particularly kibbutzim, freeing Jewish communities from dependence upon foreign consulates and Arab watchmen for their security.
Hashomer was successful in providing defense for settlements throughout the country; it aroused the ire of Arab watchmen who lost their jobs and of pilferers, and antagonized the Arab population by retaliatory raids.

 Hashomer Hatzair - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hashomer Hatzair (or Hashomer Hatsair or HaShomer HaTzair) (Hebrew: "The Young Guard" or "Guardian [that is] Young") is a Zionist-socialist youth movement founded in 1913 in Galicia (now in Poland) and was also the name of the group's political party in the Yishuv in the pre-1948 British Mandate of Palestine.
It is not officially aligned with Meretz's successor party, Yachad, due to a recent merger of its parent organization, the Meretz-aligned Kibbutz Artzi Federation with the Labour Party's United Kibbutz Movement, Hashomer Hatzair is officially not aligned with either party though, by tradition, it is close in outlook to Yachad.
Hashomer Hatzair operated in South Africa until sometime in the 1980s when the South Africa government banned the movement and arrested it's members because of their anti-apartheid teachings and activism.

 The History of Hashomer Hatzair and The Kibbutz Artzi Federation
Hashomer Hatzair, the initial Zionist youth movement, was founded in Eastern Europe on the eve of the First World War.
Many Jewish youth, affected by the process of modernization which had begun among Eastern European Jewry, sought a means of maintaining their Jewish identity and culture outside the stifling barriers of the shtetl and of Orthodox Jewish life.
At the same time Hashomer Hatzair was active in the Haganah, the underground army of the Jewish community in Palestine.

Hashomer Hatzair of the 21st century is no longer a leftist, Ashkenazi movement; today many members have rightist political views, and don't consider kibbutz an ideal way of life.

 Rose Carson: The Left Wing Zionists and the Fourth International (May 1943)
Hashomer Hatzair, the extreme left wing of the Zionist movement, which was, until the present catastrophic period, the hope of Jewish socialist militants, has failed, together with the rest of Zionism, to understand and develop a real programme for the solution of the Jewish problem.
Two claims are repeatedly made by Hashomer Hatzair, one they are Marxists, and two: they fully concur with anyone who says that the ultimate solution to the Jewish question lies in the Socialist society.
Hashomer Hatzair claims to conduct a genuine struggle against bourgeois Zionism and presents its programme as a Marxist alternative Hashomer Hatzair criticises the Fourth International for its “unreal approach”, to the Jewish problem and for its lack of a “constructive attitude”.

 Jewish Brigades
From the time the modern Jewish community in Israel (the new yishuv) became an entity following the first and second aliyot (waves of immigration)--from 1870 until the outbreak of World War I in 1914--every Jewish town, neighborhood, moshava (village), farm, moshav, and kvutza (cooperative and collective settlements, respectively), faced the necessity of protecting itself.
Hashomer continued its security assignments in Israel as before, taking pains to deny the Ottoman regime any pretext to liquidate it.
A third Jewish regiment, the 40th king's Fusiliers, was created on the basis of Jewish volunteers from the United States and Canada (including David Ben-Gurion and Itzchak Ben-Tzvi, who had been expelled from Israel by the Turks, as well as Dov Joseph and Nehemia Rabin).
