Became known, who headed the radical Islamist movement Hamas

Islamist movement and political party Hamas has embarked on a change of image.

Former Prime Minister of the Palestinian national authority Ismail Haniyeh was headed by the radical Islamist movement Hamas.

This was announced on Saturday, may 6, the organization itself.

Chania became Chairman of the Hamas political Bureau, replacing in this post, Khaled Mashaal, who led the radicals in 1996.

Hamas, which controls Gaza, recently published a new, more pragmatic political programme to end the isolation groups, which the West consider a terrorist organization. “Rebranding” in particular needs to show Hamas as an Islamic national liberation movement, not a branch of the fundamentalist organization “Muslim brotherhood”. The goal of “destroying Israel” has also been removed from the agenda, however, the task is called “liberation” of historic Palestine, which includes modern Israel.

Haniyeh was Prime Minister of the Palestinian national authority since March 2006 to June 2007, and then – after an internal Palestinian conflict between Hamas and the government of the head of Fatah, Mahmoud Abbas – to 2014 led the Gaza strip.
