Hamas, Israel, and the Politics of Terror: Reading Between the Lines

from Redefining the Compass of International Politics

Since its founding in 1987, Hamas has been at the center of one of the world’s most entrenched conflicts, the struggle between Israelis and Palestinians. The pages in front of us describe Hamas as “Israel’s most relentless enemy,” a group that has “not been at peace with Israel, or even contemplated peace” for a single year of its existence. Today, these pages become our script, and our job is to unpack what they say—and what they don’t.
