Betar US (Hebrew: בית"ר כינה, romanized: Beitar Kina) also known as Betar USA (Hebrew: בית"ר אַרצוֹת הַבְּרִית, romanized: Beitar Eretzot Habrit) is a radical pro-Israel group in the United States. A sector of the paramilitary Revisionist Zionist Betar Movement, the group was revived in the U.S. in June 2023 and supported Israel during the Gaza war. It was led by Ross Glick. Betar US has been blacklisted by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) for its embrace of "Islamophobia [and] harras[ing] Muslims." According to the ADL, the group which self-describes itself as "vandals", has faced controversy over its support for Zionist terrorism and Kahanism, a movement that calls for the religious segregation of non-Jews as well as violence against Palestinians.
