What is Hamas and who funds it?

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

When Hamas launched large-scale attacks into Israel. A number of people were asking: What is Hamas, the terror organisation that governs Palestinians in the Gaza Strip?

Palki Sharma host of Firstpost’s Vantage delved into how Hamas was founded and which nations support the terror group.   Please note that the report below was published on 7 October.  For current updates from Vantage follow THIS link or browse the videos on YouTube HERE.

Hamas is a terrorist organisation but it calls itself a political party with a military wing, Sharma explained.  It is one of the largest two political parties in Palestine, each controlling a different part of Palestine.  The Palestine Liberation Organization (“PLO”) controls the West Bank and Hamas controls the Gaza Strip.

Hamas gets its name from an Arab acronym: Ḥarakat al-Muqāwamah al-ʾIslāmiyyah, which translates to the Islamic Resistance Movement.  The group was founded by an Arab scholar and cleric, Ahmed Yassin

In 1967 there was a six-day war fought between Israel and a coalition of Arab states after which Israel occupied Palestinian territory.  Two decades later, in 1987, Yassin established Hamas and Palestinians rose against Israel’s occupation. At first, the movement was called The First Intifada or The First Uprising.  There was a series of violent protests attacking Jews in Israel.

A year later Hamas published their Charter which called for the destruction of Israel and for the establishment of an Islamic society in historic Palestine. Hamas continued their attacks; their targets were civilians.

Currently, Ismail Haniyeh is the designated chairman of Hamas.  He operates from Qatar’s capital Doha. “Hamas leaders have made Qatar their workplace because they had a falling out with their previous hosts – that’s Syria,” Sharma said. “Which brings us to another question who supports and funds Hamas on the geopolitical level?”

Watch the video below to find out.

The Israel-Hamas War is ALREADY Pushing the Great Reset Agenda” Answer in the title?I don’t care. What I care that how a far-away conflict is used to divide us an conquer, to make an Orwellian world, end of free speech, face recognition, etc. Read what happened in different countries in the background! That’s our business but a conflict we have nothing to do with.

This is a trap, a tool, a step forward for the elite parasites, who created it is not the point, who benefits is.

  1. Hamas has resisted terrorist occupiers, invaders, and Zionist entities that slaughter women, babies, and the disabled… for more than 80 years to call them terrorists means you are propagandized.

Rothschild penned the recreation of Israel and guaranteed the positioning of Israel a Jewish society on top of and in the middle of an existing Muslim middle east.

Since WW2 and it became a reality this was always going to be an issue almost like they intentionally laid it out to be this way.

Not favoring any sides here … how they did this inevitably created a nation that would always be in a perpetual state of war with its neighbors.

And for some reason Jews can go back and claim supposedly land that was theirs millennia ago so why can’t everybody else lay claim to the land their forefathers owned?

Sick and tired of the killing on both sides on this.

Zionist Israel know. and other Arab Nations know that if people that leave Gaza or the west bank they will never be able to return and then the Zionist will have taken or stolen the whole of which was originally Palestine. And that’s why other nations won’t let them through it’s not because they don’t want to it’s because they know if they leave they will never be able to return to their homeland.

Hi Mark. Thanks for your comment. Why do you think Israel didn’t conquer all the Palestinian territory in 1948? Any ideas? If it had done it so, the Palestinians would have fled to other countries as refugees. And this apartheid policy in Israel and all this oppression of the Palestinian people by Israel during the last 70 years wouldn’t have existed. I wonder whether they (the manipulators that control this world) purpussifully didn’t let Israel “finish” the job in 1948 so Israel could oppress and torture the Palestinian for decades thus fomenting hatred in the meddle east against Israel and Jews. At the same time as fomenting hatred in the Israelies against the Arabs. Thus, creating the trigger to start a world war as it is happening now. Also, you take the war in Syria for example: it generated almost 7 million refugees. 7 million people left the country. There are 2 million syrians just in turkey. In 1948 there were only 1.4 million Palestinians, other countries could have assimilated them easily if Israel had taken over all the territory. Also, even today, there are 5 million Palestinians, why don’t the Arabic countries assimilate them? They speak the same language, the culture is similar ( it is not like they would be moving to Japan, a totally different culture). Anyway, I really dont get why these people had to stay in the west bank and Gaza for so long being tortured by Israel. The only explanation I can come up with is that the satanic rulers of this world wanted it this way to create hatred in people so there would be a World War.

Israelian army reacted some 14 hours late after Hamas attack. If you told me that is an accident, I should laugh. Netanyahu sacrificed his own people. There are no accidents in the global arena.
Abigail25 is right, we are witnessing the superriches show where war is not war, seen is not what it appears to be.

You are correct. Only, it took about 7 hours to respond, not 14. Hamas invaded at around 7 am, it took till 2 PM before the IDF responded. That while shortly after 7 am citizens in Tel Aviv knew about the invasion. This was not an accident of course. Impossible! Indeed, Netanyahu DID sacrifice his own people.

Right, and they were not confronted for seven hours. Inside job, just as HAMAS is likely more controlled by the perpetrators at times, willingly or not.

I tried divide conquer with Ireland many years ago and the similarities between that and Palestine are very similar and it is greed power and politics by people of the WEF which are mostly which basically are all Zionists Jews and their main goal is to rebuild the temple which in the Bible says should never ever happen and precise archaeologists say it was never built there to start with they’ll never be satisfied until they’ve got their hands on all of Palestine and quite frankly Google have even wiped it off the map.

The only thing historic about Palestine is the name given to the area by Latin speaking Romans to irritate deported Jews. There is no Arab-Palestine historicity.

No, it was the name given by the Greeks to the land of the Philistines. Herodotus used it in the 5th century BC. The Bible, in Samuel and Joshua, describes their territory as comprising five cities: Ashkelon, Ashdod, Gath, Ekron and Gaza. The people of the region aren’t Arabs ethnically, having only adopted the language and culture following Islamisation.

I’m not Gregory but I can answer your question.
The area that is now Syria used to be part of the Eastern Roman Empire, and Christian, prior to the Islamic conquest in the 600’s AD.
The eastern half of the Roman Empire survived the fall of the West and lasted for another 1,000 years (with its capital in Constantinople – today’s Istanbul. Also, historians call the Eastern Roman Empire after the fall of the Western Empire the Byzantine Empire or Byzantium).
The Islamic conquest destroyed the Persian Empire and ended Roman control over much of the Middle East.

Starting from 2020, with endless daily statistics and question marks (number of “infected”; how “infected” the “virus”; how sick and how many dead; etc., etc)… There was no break until February 2022, when the statistics and question marks and endless comments (all deceptive on one level or another) just continued… Through the short “climatic” Odyssey… To now, to the latest that continues the line…

(Officials, the mainstream, and the alternative sector continue it together. And the alternatives, never – based on freely available information -do not blow up the whole thing; because they have to continue it; for people to stay INSIDE – in the network, in the game..)

for people to stay INSIDE – in the network, in the game..:

The main stages of the development of the Neuronet, Source: Pavel Luksha. Presentation “Roadmap for the development of the Neuronet”, 2014

..The Neuronet is the next generation of the Internet, which will use neural interfaces to create new types of communication between people and machines. By linking hundreds or, in the future, even billions of intelligences into a neurocomputer network, it will be possible to achieve a synergistic effect in their joint work..

2014 ->2020 -> 2030 the emergence of neuronet

When Biometrinet becomes commonplace, the “Neuronet Offensive” will begin (2025-2035), during which communication protocols based on digital models of mental processes will be developed and approaches to organizing a “collective consciousness” capable of “brainstorming” and solving tasks that require the concerted efforts of many people will be found. …

Great observations, Karakorum.
The Uncertainty Principle (HUP) in physics tells us that near Absolute Zero, atoms and even macro-molecules behave as one entity, and as the temperature is lowered the wave size of these entities increases enormously (Bose-Einstein Condensates, superconductors etc.)

This is similar to the hive-mind herd collective communist-mentality Internet of Minds that the NWO satanists desire.

Okay, a “collective consciousness” can achieve some useful things, e.g. millions of pc users are already collaborating to gather data about the stars, but the downside (again Heisenberg’s UP) is that we then lose many good things about life: our natural God-given soul, love, individuality, empathy, compassion, creativity, intuition etc.

All excellent comments on this article, showing great insight.
On tonight’s Neil Oliver Live show, Tonia Buxton suggested that it is the elite (sadistic) NWO who are benefiting money-wise from these deliberately created conflicts (e.g. Ukraine and Gaza), and so notice that no government anywhere is seriously calling for the peace talks that we the public used to expect: also the offspring of the 20th Century ban-the-bomb brigade are too busy throwing tomato sauce over great paintings.

Also she mentioned that just when the truthers are getting their act together, the globalists create another major distraction to split the truth movement (e.g. support for Israel vs support for ordinary Palestinians oppressed for 70 years).
So we need to come back together and just state our support for the innocents especially children, and not allow the satanic cult to divide and conquer us: to stay together over the connected issues such as plandemics, 5G, CBDC, chemtrails, compact cities (predicted in 2018 by Joe Imbriano).
My dream is that right and left politically can join against our common enemy the satanists.

The evil cult’s branches are compartmentalized e.g. the 5G contractors are not involved with the digital passport makers, but the resulting systems will combine seamlessly into the desired demonic silicon hive-mind dystopia.

There is some evidence that Zionist Israel were involved in the creation and maintenance of hamas just like how the brits infiltrated the republican and loyalist elements in the troubles in Northern Ireland facilitating and committing atrocities

Yes John, there are deep similarities with all such conflicts, where the Deep State controllers fund and infiltrate both sides to create fear in the peace-loving populations, money for the arms trade, depopulation, division of peoples, along with satisfying the sadistic nature of the elite.

Without those shadowy creatures running the show, we could hope to obtain a paradise on Earth, so now is the time to put down the toys.

The Intifada was led by PLO groups like Fatah and the Popular Front, indeed Hamas was only formed two days after it began…We can speculate why but it seems to have been an attempt to take control of a genuine grassroots rebellion and steer it towards a murderous agenda, in order to discredit the whole movement. It’s worth pointing out that Hamas leader Sheik Yassin was released by Israel in 1984 after serving one year of a 12 year sentence and again, in 1997, by Netanyahu, eight years into a life sentence – he also allowed Yassin to return to Gaza.

Hamas was funded by Israël with financial assistance and help of the USA (CIA) ad a response to the terrorist organisation of the PLO under Yasser Arafat.

Regarding Who is Hamas and their source of funding was informative. However, in defense of Israel and from historical data, the land of Israel goes back to around 2000 BC beginning with Abraham, Isaac, Ishmael, Jacob and the twelve tribes. Abraham was instructed to buy land in what was called Canaan, then later called Palestine during Roman occupation of Israel all well before Mohammed formed the religion of Islam in 600s AD adopting fragments of Judaism and Christianity. He referred to the Jews as people of the book. The 12 sons of Jacob lived in Israel until their flight into Egypt. They left Egypt aroundn1400 BC and made their way back into Israel. Returning to the land, they had conflict with the Edomites (their relatives) living in region of Jordan , Hitties, Hivites, Perizzites, Girgashites, Amorites, Jebusites, Philistines (as in David killed Goliath a Philistine.) God told Moses in Joshua 1:1 set the boundaries “every place the sole of your feet tread” from the wilderness, Lebanon (occupied by Jacob’s son Dan) to the Euphrates River…to Mediterranean Sea. Modern day self proclaimed Palestinians want all the land of Israel from the Mediterranean sea to the river Jordan. Yassar Arafat, in the 1970 started the PLO and the term Palestinians became popular. Modern day Palestinians have no historical basis for claiming the land of Israel belongs to them.

Why does the author write ‘terror organisation’ about hamas? Are they supposed to accept all the death and terror that the jews inflicted upon them since they were placed in their homeland? Looks ot me more like the so-claled idf is a uge terorist organisation funded by and armed by the Western countries who perhaps wanted to get rid of their jews.

That video is very one-sided. Israel, or at least Netanyahu and Likud have supported Hamas for many years. The reason? Israel – with the exception of Yitzhak Rabin who was therefore killed – never wanted a two-state solution. A radical organization like Hamas was a great excuse for not creating a two-state solution….
