hamas is a military and political organization. it has both wings, it has organizations, institutions, it has social welfare programs, it's not just a group of fighters who emerged out of nowhere. while it's indisputable, the design genocide has resulted in numerous hamas casualties and a breakdown of self. government in gaza, support for hamas remains strong across occupied palestine. it's becoming clearer by the day that israel's campaign of targeted assassinations and genocidal massacers have done nothing to destroy hamas as movement, when it's continuing to pose a threat to the zionist regime alongside its regional allies. those allies, including iran, the ansar allah of yemen, and hisbollah, have all promised a retaliation against. designist entity for its repeated aggressions. well, david, as you've just heard in our report there, hamas won the 2006 palestinian legislative election, so how come they were alsoted from power in the west bank? well, so there was a fight, wasn't there? i mean, what happened was that tomas won the

hamas members who were in prison with him. sinward's rise has come about through an unorthodox series of events. in 2004, israeli surgeons were forced to remove fatal tumor from his brain. in 2011, he was released in a prisoner exchange in addition to over 100 other prisoners for zionist soldier jalad shalit. something sinward was pivotal in negotiating and his rise as hames's new political. leader comes directly off the back of israel's assassination of ismail han. in 2017, sinward was elected leader of hamas in the gaza strip, putting the movement's political wing a more assertive footing. since hamas's military operation on 7th of october 2023, sanwar has been at the top of the zionist regime's hit list, and many israeli political figures have promised to assassinate him. own for his commitment to the axies of resistance, allying with iran, syria and other affiliated regional actors. he's also known for being uncompromising, while his predecessor ismail hanye was viewed as more of moderate. that disposition has already made

moderates, meaning the normalizing monarchies and states uh want to replace hamas, so which is it, hamas100% you know disguising it as as self-determination for the palestinians, moving to hadath tv channel, which reports as if its headquarters are in televive, not exaggerating, this is so in this following report by hadath, not only spreads misinformation and spews lies about the palestinian resistance, but also propagates narrative, i mean not even found in zionist media, let's watch this clip together about an alleged disintegration amongst the al-qassam brigades themselves without providing the slightest, oh really, okay let's see. رسائل جديده بعثها قاده في الجناح العسكري لحماس تحث قاده الحركه في الخارج على قبول خطه بايدن لوقف النار. الرسائل التي تحدثت عنها اسيو شوته بريس كشفت عن تباين في المواقع بين قاده في كتائب القسامي وزعيم حماس في غزه يحيى السنوار. الوكاله الامريكيه نقلت عن مسؤول في الشرق الاوسط مطلع على المفاوضات الجاريه قوله ان الحركه. عاني من انقسامات وقاده الداخل مستعدون للتوصل الى اتفاق سريعا حتى لو لم يكن استنوار في عجله من امره وشارك المسؤول الشرق اوسططي تفاصيل من رسالتين

gaza had been a stronghold for hamas for many years. in 2005, israeli prime minister ariel sharon was forced to dismantle zaine's settlements there following persistent. attacks from hamas on israeli settlers. since then, hamas has continued to develop its military capabilities against israel, building a network of tunnels and a stock pile of light and heavy weaponry. but in addition to its military activities, hamas operates range of social welfare programs, providing services to palestinians affected by the zionist occupation. the hamas government in gaza manages various ministries, local authorities. and security forces, making it part of the fabric of palestinian society. as veteran palestinian politician, activist and scholar hannan ashrawi has pointed out, hamas is a broad and complex movement. hamas is a military and political organization, it has both wings, it has organizations, institutions, it has social welfare programs, it's not just a group of fighters who... emerged out of nowhere, while it's indisputable that the zionist

definitely uh, these claims that people are afraid, afraid of hamas, claiming that hamas was going towith the resistance, added to that they keep saying that they took out resistance, there is no resistance, but again tribes are afraid, it's all over the place, and these tribes have come out and have condemned all of these plans that these these are new forms of occupation that they're cooking up, you know, disguising it as as - self-determination for the palestinians, moving to hadath tv channel, which reports as if its headquarters are in televiv, not exaggerating uh, this is um, so in this following report by hadath, not only spreads misinformation and spews lies. about the palestinian resistance, but also propagates narrative, i mean, not even found in zionist media, let's watch this clip together about an alleged disintegration amongst the al-qassam brigades themselves, without providing the slightest evidence, oh really, okay, let's see that, رسائل جديده بعثها قاده في الجناح العسكري لحماس, تحث قاده الحركه في الخارج على قبول خطه بايدن لوقف النار, الرسائل التي تحدثت عنها اسيو شوتي

hamas political bureau, role he undertook from the qatari capital, doham. he spent his time in that role, engaged in diplomacy, and in recent months he had led negotiations on behalf of hamas to bring about a cease fire in ghazza. henni was also a religious figure, he was a quran reciter and served as the imam of his local mosque in doha. his theology was markedly different. to many of his counterparts due to his interest in sufiism. hennie's role was strictly political and he was not involved in military operations, but on eid fitr this year, while hanyu was visiting wounded razzans being treated a hospital in doha. his sons and grandchildren were killed in a targeted israeli air strike in ghazza. despite this, hany remained at the negotiating table a time when both sides were reportedly close to reaching an agreement.

hamas does not really want the temporary cease-fire.d do a deal that ended the war altogether, implemented all three phases of president biden's three cease-fire but benjamin netanyahu is only interested in the first phase when the hostages are released and he plans to resume the work. from hamas' perspective, they have the opportunity for hezbollah to join the fight and take more aggressive action against israel and that was our plan from the beginning, trying to spark a regional war and have others join in. i do not see them having incentive to join the deal and i do not think netanyahu does either so the u.s. has their work cut out for them. >> you just said you do not think netanyahu once a full stage, full on cease-fire. obviously the u.s. does. wedges that relationship stand between the white house and the den administration and prime minister netanyahu? >> i think there is an extraordinary amount of tension. you can hear that bubbling over on the surface. we have been very frustrated with netanyahu for taking positions on this ce

so hamas is facing a decision point.ipate on thursday or not is open. they may wait to see what iran and hezbollah does. but we are entering an endgame, i think, in gaza. hamas needs some kind of ceasefire, the israelis want a ceasefire. there's now agreement finally between the us and israel as far as we can see on the terms it's a question whether hamas will take them or not. and of course a question whether hamas will take them or not. and of course hamas has a new leader following the killer of its leader. does that change the shots? yahyah sinwar was negotiating and has been a real leader of hamas for some time unfortunately. and just briefly we know that antony blinken is due tojoe —— due to return to the region. we have seen him back and forth for months now. what it do you think is the purpose of this particular visit. it's what secretaries of state too. the main american mover in the middle east isn't tony blinken, it is setting aircraft and reinforcing submarines where we are to have them. ambassadorjeffrey the
