They built schools and provide medical services etc when the PA was MIA. Ultimately they are popular for their actions and beliefs, not just their hate of Israel.
They did this with money from the United States and Israeli people. Hamas has two factions..political and militant. The two factions don't even agree nor get along. They have recently kidnapped and assasinated each other.
Hamas wont stop until there is no longer an Israel. Israel pulls out of the Gaza strip and Hamas claims victory. Israel should cut off all aid, shut down all crossings into Israel so no Palestiniians can come into Israel to work. Siege Hamas until they are so destitute they come to the table to talk surrender. If Iran wishes to bail them out by sending hundreds of millions in aid then let Iran go broke doing so.
Hamas is a terrosit organization. They are murderers of children and should be placed in jail for life. I would pay for it
