The Word is "Hamas"

To help us understand, Al Jazeera defines "Who are Hamas?"

"Hamas, acronym of Harakat al-Muqawamah al-Islamiyyah ("Islamic Resistance Movement"), is a Palestinian anti-occupation organization closely related to the Muslim Brotherhood."

The organization is popular among Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. It also has a following in the West Bank, and, to a lesser extent, in other Middle Eastern countries and throughout the Palestinian diaspora, including within Israel. The movement's popularity stems from its paramilitary activities, and from its provision of welfare and social services to the Palestinian poor."


Uh huh........
