History

The village was established near the Betar fortress on 24 April 1950 by native Israelis and immigrants from Argentina who were members of the Beitar movement, including Matityahu Drobles, later a member of the Knesset.[2] It was founded on the land of the depopulated Arab village of al-Qabu.[3] Located around a kilometre from the Green Line, it was a border settlement until the Six-Day War.

gollark: Well, if the configuration is too similar, then it might be too similar to configuration files used by IRC networks in apiospace. Now, of course, most apiospatial information is highly cognitometaapiohyperhazardous, so it would be bad if it entered normal IRC networks.
