Ze'ev Jabotinsky, the founder of Revisionist Zionism, established its paramilitary group called "Irgun", from which another offshoot paramilitary group known as the Lehi, emerged.[1] The conflict between the Zionist militias and the British Army intensified following the publication of the White Paper of 1939, which outlined British plans to restrict Jewish immigration and Jewish land purchase in Palestine, and proposed the creation of a binational Jewish-Arab Palestine.[2] Insurgency followed immediately; a Jewish general strike was called, attacks were launched against Arabs and British police, telephone services and power lines were sabotaged, and violent speeches of protest were held for several months.[3] A week after the publication of the White Paper of 1939, the Irgun planted an explosive device in the Rex cinema in Jerusalem, injuring 18 people, including 13 Arabs and 3 British police officers. On that same day, 25 Irgun members attacked the Arab village Biyar 'Adas, forced their way into 2 houses, shot and killed 5 Arab civilians. [4] {Use mdy dates|date=March 2024}}

Far-right politics in Israel[a] encompasses ideologies such as ultranationalism, Jewish supremacy, Jewish fascism, and Anti-Arabism.[5] In recent times, the term "far-right" is mainly used to describe advocates of policies such as the expansion of Israeli settlements in the West Bank, opposition to Palestinian statehood, and imposition of Israeli sovereignty over the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. Kahanism is an example of a far-right ideology active in Israeli politics.

Far-right politics in Serbia[b] emerged shortly before the break-up of Yugoslavia and has been present ever since. Its manifestation mostly focuses on national and religious factors.
