 | | Zeev (Vladimir) Jabotinsky was born in Odessa, Russia, on October 18, 1880, the son of a merchant. |
 | | Jabotinsky gave the forlorn Jewish youth a sense of being a part not only of the future - the coming Jewish State - but of the past - the majesty of the Kingdom of King David, the Maccabees, the Prophets and Bar Kochba, from whom they were descended. |
 | | And in 1938, when Jabotinsky, in the face of the infamous MacDonald White Paper, gave the signal for the formation of Aliya Bet to "illegally" transport European Jews into Palestine, it is to Betar that he delegated the responsibility for organizing the transports and guiding the immigrants to their ports of em barkation. |
