CHAPTER

The Origins and Radicalization of Hamas

This chapter discusses the emergence and radicalization of Hamas, starting with the opposition of the Qutab's wing to launching a jihad against Israel. It talks about the creation of Hamas as a semi-radical wing of the Muslim Brotherhood in response to the rise of extremist groups in the late 70s and early 80s. The chapter highlights the continuous resistance of Hamas towards any attempt at creating a peaceful solution between Israel and the Palestinian Authority, as their goal is the liberation of Palestine from the river to the sea.
