Wikipedia: Hamas published its charter in August 1988, wherein it defined itself as a chapter of the Muslim Brotherhood and its desire to establish “an Islamic state throughout Palestine” … It declares all of Palestine a waqf, an unalienable religious property consisting of land endowed to Muslims in perpetuity by God … The charter rejects a two-state solution, stating that the conflict cannot be resolved “except through jihad”.

Bonus: On May 2, 2011, Hamas leader and Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh condemned the killing of Osama bin Laden in Pakistan by the United States. Haniyeh praised Bin Laden, the founder of the jihadist organization al-Qaeda, as a “martyr” and an “Arab holy warrior”
