How Has Hamas Changed? Shifting Tactics and Strategies | Professor Avraham Sela

Hamas is a large, sophisticated, multi-faction organization that has changed significantly in the thirty years since its original formation. In this episode of the UCLA Y&S Nazarian Center for Israel Studies' podcast "Israel in Depth," Center Director Dov Waxman and international relations and Middle East politics expert Professor Avraham Sela discuss how and why Hamas’ leadership, organizational structure, tactics, and goals have changed over time. How have disagreements between the leaders of Hamas’ social and military wings pushed Hamas to adopt more hardline positions? How have strengthened relations with Iran changed Hamas’ tactics and goals? How has the legacy of ISIS affected the nature of Hamas’ terror attacks? Has progressivism and growing international delegitimization of Israel encouraged Hamas to abandon the prospects of compromise with Israel? In addition to these questions and more, Waxman and Sela discuss how Israel can and should respond to Hamas’ governance in Gaza after the 10/7 terrorist attacks, and what challenges the post-war state of Gaza might pose for Israel diplomatically. This episode was recorded on November 17, 2023. Podcast
