Description: Product Description : Hamas Contained: The Rise and Pacification of Palestinian Resistance (Stanford Studies in Middle Eastern and Islamic Societies and Cultures) Hamas rules Gaza and the lives of the two million Palestinians who live there Demonized in media and policy debates various accusations and critical assumptions have been used to justify extreme military action against Hamas The reality of Hamas is of course far more complex Neither a democratic political party nor a terrorist group Hamas is a multifaceted liberation organization one rooted in the nationalist claims of the Palestinian peopleHamas Contained offers the first history of the group on its own terms Drawing on interviews with organization leaders as well as publications from the group Tareq Baconi maps Hamass thirtyyear transition from fringe military resistance towards governance He breaks new ground in questioning the conventional understanding of Hamas and shows how the movements ideology ultimately threatens the Palestinian struggle and inadvertently its own legitimacyHamass reliance on armed struggle as a means of liberation has failed in the face of a relentless occupation designed to fragment the Palestinian people As Baconi argues under Israels approach of managing rather than resolving the conflict Hamass demand for Palestinian sovereignty has effectively been neutralized by its containment in Gaza This dynamic has perpetuated a deadlock characterized by its brutalityand one that has made permissible the collective punishment of millions of Palestinian civilians( it is an used product )
