INTIFADA: HAMAS in the US, Then and Now is a documentary about the creation and evolution of the HAMAS terrorist organization in the MIddle East and the concurrent development and growth of the HAMAS infrastructure in the United States. On October 7, 2023, HAMAS committed the brutally raped, torture, and murder of 1200 people and kidnapped more than 200 others. In the wake of these atrocities, individuals and groups took to the streets in the US to vow support for HAMAS, espousing false narratives about the terrorist organization and the events of October 7. These false narratives and terrorist rhetoric are echoes of a strategy put in place more than three decades ago, and this podcast seeks to explain the truth about HAMAS and how it has used the United States to serve its purposes for decades.

What’s Inside Episode 4: I Am HAMAS
In this episode, Lara Burns and Jennifer Baker revisit a significant event from 1993: a secretive meeting in Philadelphia where key figures from the U.S.-based HAMAS network gathered. They strategized against the Oslo peace accords while continuing to support HAMAS operations under the radar. This meeting highlights a turning point in how HAMAS’s U.S. infrastructure operated covertly to sustain their mission, while HAMAS began a brutal campaign in Israel and the Palestinian territories wherein they began to employ suicide bombings and other vicious attacks, in a full-front effort to derail the potential for peace and to undermine the Palestinian Authority as the representative of the Palestinian people.
The discussion sheds light on the roles of key organizations:
Holy Land Foundation (HLF): Acting as the fundraising and charitable front.
United Association for Studies and Research (UASR): Serving as the think tank and political strategy hub.
Islamic Association for Palestine (IAP): Operating as the propaganda arm to spread the organization’s message.
Through detailed analysis and supporting evidence, Burns and Baker reveal the connections and tactics employed to disguise these efforts.
Discover how HAMAS’s U.S.-based infrastructure adapted and evolved during a critical period in history. This episode provides an unparalleled perspective into the covert strategies used to undermine peace processes and sustain global operations. From documented meetings to key players, the episode uncovers facts that challenge misleading narratives.
