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.

In the wake of the HLF trial and convictions, news reporting indicated the FBI attempted to disengage from CAIR in any official capacity, with open source documents revealing they were considered an inappropriate partner for liaison. In this episode, you will learn about CAIR's reaction to these developments, as well as the growth of the AMP and its collaboration with the Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) in the realm of student activism. Burns and Baker reflect back on the 1993 conspiratorial meeting wherein Nihad Awad and other attendees specifically discussed the need to ignite student activism in furtherance of their cause.…
While Hamas took leaps forward in its progress in Gaza in the late 2000s, the group here suffered setbacks. The HLF and five of its senior officers were convicted of providing support to Hamas. Hear from one of the trial attorneys who explains how the case was proven to a jury, and how some groups like CAIR were identified as co-conspirators at the trial, and the Court affirmed that designation.…
The Second Intifada brought so much death in Israel with a number of American citizens dying as a result of senseless acts of terror. You will hear from two retired FBI Special Agents who served years as FBI Legal Attaches in Tel Aviv, witnessing first hand the brutality of Hamas. You will also gain a glimpse into the evolution of the US-based Hamas infrastructure when one of the original Hamas fronts ostensibly closed only to re-open with another name- an organization that is driving a large part of the hateful anti-Semitic, anti-West rhetoric in our country today.…

Search warrants executed on the HLF offices in 2001 revealed a large amount of evidence. One of the documents seized was labeled "HLF Fatwa" and served as a religious decree, backed by infamous Muslim Brotherhood leader Yousef Al Qaradawi, authorizing the payment of Zakat (charity) to entities in the West like the HLF. The Fatwa noted "Jihad with arms to fight the enemies" was the most important aspect of the work, but that giving money to organizations in the West who worked toward the overall goal, was likewise important. It authorized people to pay their Zakat (charity) to certain "Islamic societies in the west because they aspire to erase Kufr (non-believer) regimes and replace them with an Islamic State.…
On September 11, 2001, the United States was attacked by Al Qaeda when terrorists hijacked and flew commercial airliners full of innocent civilians into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. This event led to the United States' War on Terror. Within months, one of the first Hamas front organizations in the United States, the Holy Land Foundation, was designated as an "Specially Designated Terrorist," its doors shuttered and its assets frozen. However, leaders in the US-based Hamas infrastructure adapted quickly to the development and continued, undeterred in pursuing their mission.…
In 2000, with the eruption of the Second Intifada, HAMAS and Palestinian Islamic Jihad's violence became unhinged. Still, there were also developments with the US-based Hamas infrastructure when the family of Hamas victim David Boim filed a civil lawsuit against the HLF and IAP, alleging they were liable for David's death. HLF leader Shukri Abu Baker urged HLF leader Mohamed El-Mezain to destroy material that would be discoverable in that case. In 2001, the FBI conducted a surprise raid on a company related to the HLF and found thousands of secret documents.…
Assassination Attempts, Prisoner Releases, and Expulsions: This Episode reveals that the late 1990s were a busy time for Hamas leadership abroad and also provides insight into how the CAIR Chairman of the Board was secretly a decision-maker for the HLF, Hamas's US-based charitable front.
Hamas terrorists shot and killed an American teenager at a bus stop in 1996 in a brutal, senseless act of murder. As Israel and the Palestinian Authority struggled to maintain peace amidst the violence, the United States released Mousa Abu Marzook from custody and deported him to Jordan where he joined other Hamas leaders like Khalid Mishal. Hamas escalated its violence by dispatching a triple suicide bombing on a crowded pedestrian mall in Jerusalem where many young US citizens were socializing.…
In 1994 and 1995, HAMAS's famous bomb-maker, Yahya Ayyash, known as The Engineer constructed powerful bombs that were used to wreak havoc and kill innocent civilians on buses and crowded streets, but his death in 1996 merely made him a revered martyr who was praised and celebrated. Hamas continued its violent terror attacks, and an HLF leader proclaimed one of those terror attacks was "God's destiny."…
In Episode 5, A Beautiful Operation, Burns and Baker continue to analyze the suicide bombings and attacks Hamas employed against Israel in 1995 in an attempt to derail the Oslo Accords. They further delve into the reactions of some of the members of the US-based infrastructure, particularly leaders of the Holy Land Foundation, who referred to the double suicide bombing as a "beautiful operation." Burns and Baker also focus on how, in 1995, the US government acknowledged that Hamas' violence was undermining efforts to achieve peace in the region, and the Clinton administration designated Hamas and its Political Bureau Chief Mousa Abu Marzook as Specially Designated Terrorists (SDTs).…
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. Don’t miss this deep dive into a defining moment in the history of HAMAS and its influence.

INTIFADA: Hamas in the US
The series begins with a powerful prologue recounting the harrowing events of October 7, 2023, when HAMAS launched an assault on Israel by land, air, and sea. This opening episode shares the firsthand accounts of survivors like Natalie Sanandaji, a New York native attending the Nova music festival, who narrowly escaped the massacre as rockets and gunfire shattered the dawn. Listeners will also hear from Moshe Emilio Lavi, whose family near the Gaza border endured terror as his brother-in-law was taken hostage. These personal stories highlight the devastating human toll and lasting trauma caused by HAMAS’s brutal tactics, which was followed quickly by an outpouring of support for HAMAS by individuals and groups in the US.
