Although most in the West consider Hamas, which brutally massacred some 1,400 Israelis on October 7, 2023, to be anything from a terrorist to a nationalist movement, the group sees itself first and foremost as a religious—namely, Islamic—movement, dedicated to enforcing the draconian dictates of Muslim law (sharia), including through jihad.
“Hamas” means “zeal” in Arabic and is an Arabic acronym from harakat al-muqawamah al-islamiyyah (the Islamic Resistance Movement). The group is primarily concentrated in the Gaza Strip.
Created primarily by Sheikh Ahmed Yassin in 1987 as an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas has the stated goal of replacing the entire state of Israel with a Muslim state governed by sharia. Jihad and Islamist indoctrination are its two principal means of instituting this new state.
Although its official membership is around 20,000, more than 200,000—5.26 percent of the then total population of the Palestinian Territories—attended the funeral procession for Sheikh Ahmed Yassin in 2004, suggesting that its local sympathizers are 10 times its official number.
In addition to its immediate goals, Hamas’ founding charter also illustrates the organization’s commitment to Islamic principles in general. The slogan—“Allah is its goal [theocratic rule], the Prophet its model [importance of sunna], the Koran its Constitution [sharia], Jihad [terrorism] its path, and death [suicide-bombings] in the cause of Allah its most sublime belief” —fully demonstrates its Islamic, as opposed to territorial or nationalistic, motivations.
Though most Hamas members are Palestinian Sunni Arabs, the charter “welcomes all Muslims who share its beliefs and thinking, commit themselves to its course of action, keep its secrets and aspire to join its ranks in order to carry out their duty.”

Are pedo priests in the Catholic church really extremists?
No, not when they are covered up, paid off, and/or defended by the present Pope even after conviction.
Neither outfit is capable of forgiveness until they expel the degenerates. Until then, the orgs are complicit.
Ham-ass and all the rest of the “Extreme” groups out there are simply the Foot Soldiers.
They are allowed to run-wild to destroy the current system.
When enough destruction has been completed, you’ll see all of these extremist folks wrapped up and vanished.
The folks running the show sit, and watch, and laugh their arses off. They make money, and accumulate power, at both ends.
Like a Bizarro World Gault’s Gulch, they are just bidding time until they take it all back.
Remember how Barry invited the MB in to seats of honor for his first overseas appearance and address?
Islam needs a reformation! Long overdue. They really believe it heart and soul. Once Christians were like that (See Crusades) but we have lost it in our bid to be “Tolerant” and Modern. Maybe, just maybe we need to be a lot less tolerant with evil.

> Westerners have gotten so wishy-washy they cannot conceive of absolutists willing to kill and die for their moral code. <
It’s some kind of weird normalcy bias. Westerners wouldn’t think of killing anyone not of their religion. So as you noted, they cannot conceive of anyone else doing so.
It reminds me of the Jews who could have fled Germany after Hitler took over, but didn’t. They couldn’t imagine a civilized nation descending into the darkness. But that’s exactly what happened.
And don’t forget last year, when Turkey’s president, Erdrogan, explained that there are no ‘moderate’ mooselimes.
A moslem is a moslem is a moslem, not matter what group or faction that they call themselves. They all worship satan and uphold a pedophillic, warmongering, genocidal, skizo as their version of a perfect man.
“Is Hamas Really Islamic? Is it “Extreme” by Muslim Standards?”
YES!
They are the “REAL” (true) Muslims. The so called “good” Muslims are the FAKE Muslims.
Well, ALL Muslims are technically “fake” Muslims because Islam is a FAKE religion with a FAKE god (Allah) who was “MADE UP/INVENTED” by a murdering, raping, pillaging, illiterate, pedophile namely Mohammad their so called prophet.
So YES, Hamas is Islamic and “Extreme” is putting a nice touch on what they are.
Insert photos of burned alive babies, beheaded women who had been raped repeatedly while alive and dead until their pelvises BROKE. “Extreme”? Does it get any more extreme?
F Hamas, F Islam. God is sorting out Hamas Muslims right now. Not really any sorting to do because just BEING Muslim (NOT believing in Jesus as your Lord and Savior is enough to send you to hell for ETERNAL pain and suffering.
Mark 9:44 NKJ
...to go to hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched.
however, the Fakestinian terrorists fight directly against Allah’s express instruction to them in their Korans, whereat he tells them that he has given the land (all of it, it is not divided in the Koran) to the Jewish people.
Be alone with one, in a friendly, relaxed situation. Disarm him or her with friendly banter.
Then this or similar:... "[their name], I know you are a Muslim, and I would never think of trying to convert you to anything else. But do you, as a Muslim, believe that other people should be free to believe in their religions too, whatever they may be, Catholic, Jew, Hindu, Presbyterian, Baptist, and so forth? Watch their eyes. Listen to their response.
The first Muslim I asked the question regarding other religions had been a friend for around six months. He was about as "moderate" and a friendly Muslim as you'll ever meet.
He was well educated, a Colonel in the Egyptian army, his wife a surgeon.
When I asked him the question, you should have seen the look of pure chilling hatred that came across his face. He looked me right in the eye. His response: "There is no God but Allah, and Muhammed is his messenger".
Then he went right back to normal.
Every non Muslim (infidel) needs to read a true translation of the Holy Quran or Koran. Then they might understand why this is happening and why it will never stop happening.
IMHO these are probably the most accurate translations, and they are FREE.
I watch a lot of true crime shows and many of them deal with sexually sadistic crimes and based on what I have read of such, Muslims, especially the males, fit the profile of sexual deviants and Islam is nothing more than a sadistic sex cult.
The extreme hatred of women is the root at the base of the spine of every crime committed by these people. Think of it thusly: they have gone record as saying they love death; if they love death it goes without saying they hate life.
And who gives life? Women.
(I’m sure that there are people out there who know far more about this phenomenon than I; I would appreciate your insights.)
Seems a bit more westernized version of Islamic cult, but just as brutal, evil, and backward.
