This infromation is very important to make people, get the full picture as to why peopke like Yahya Sinwar, are always coming up.
 

The history of Hamas is an account of the Palestiniannationalist and Islamist[1] – described by some as fundamentalist[2] – socio-political organization with an associated paramilitary force, the Ezzedeen al-Qassam Brigades.[3][4] Hamas (حماس) Ḥamās is an acronym of حركة المقاومة الاسلامية Ḥarakat al-Muqāwamat al-Islāmiyyah, meaning "Islamic Resistance Movement".​

Hamas was established during the First intifada against the Israeli occupation in 1987, and has its origins in Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood movement, which had been active in the Gaza Strip since the 1950s and gained influence through a network of mosques and various charitable and social organizations. In the 1980s the Brotherhood emerged as a powerful political factor, challenging the influence of the PLO, and in 1987 adopted a more nationalist and activist line under the name of Hamas.[5]During the 1990s and early 2000s, the organization conducted numerous suicide bombings and other attacks against Israel.
In the Palestinian legislative election of January 2006, Hamas campaigned on armed resistance against the Israeli occupation and gained a large majority of seats in the Palestinian Parliament, defeating the ruling Fatah party. After the elections, conflicts arose between Hamas and Fatah, which they were unable to resolve. [6][7] In June 2007, Hamas defeated Fatah in a series of violent clashes, and since that time Hamas has governed the Gaza portion of the Palestinian Territories, while at the same time the unity government of which they formed a part in the West Bankwas dissolved by the Palestinian Authority.[8] Israel and Egyptthen imposed an economic blockade on Gaza and largely sealed their borders with the territory.[9][10]
After acquiring control of Gaza, Hamas-affiliated and other militias launched rocket attacks upon Israel, which Hamas ceased in June 2008 following an Egyptian-brokered ceasefire.[11] The ceasefire broke down late in 2008, with each side accusing the other of responsibility.[12] In late December 2008, Israel attacked Gaza,[13] withdrawing its forces in mid-January 2009.[14] Since 2009, Hamas has faced multiple military confrontations with Israel, notably the 2012 and 2014 Gaza Wars, leading to substantial casualties. Hamas has maintained control over Gaza, often clashing with the Palestinian Authority led by Fatah. Efforts at reconciliation between Hamas and Fatah have seen limited success. Hamas has continued to face international isolation and blockades, while engaging in sporadic rocket attacks and tunnel construction activities against Israel. In 2023, Hamas launched the October 7 attack on Israel, starting the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.[15]
 
"It is all about New World agenda" someone will claim so,but guess what? Hamas like other Jihadist organisations was formed to protect what they call principles of Islam and defend Palestine against Israel annexation of Palestine land
 
Hamas was formed in 1987 with the aim of establishing an Islamic state in historic Palestine and opposing Israeli occupation.

It seeks to promote social, political, and military resistance to Israel, advocating for Palestinian rights and self-determination.

The organization combines political activity with social services and armed resistance.

Ahsante.
Niliachaga siku nyingi kufuatilia mambo ya Wapalestina, lakini kwa ufafanuzi wa andiko hili ndiyo sasa nimeelewa kwa nini kuna tawala mbili katika Taifa moja.

Pia nimeelewa PLO niliyokuwa naifahamu iliishiaga wapi.
