Hamas, Terror, and Eternal Jihad: Understanding a Violent Ideology

In this episode, we look at Hamas, often described as “architects of eternal jihad.” The pages in front of us come from a book chapter that traces Hamas’s ideology, its charter, and some of its most devastating attacks, including a suicide bombing at a Sbarro pizzeria in Jerusalem.

For the next ten minutes, we will walk through what Hamas believes, how those beliefs translate into violence, and why understanding this matters for any conversation about Israel, Palestine, and peace in the region.
