Best Answer

YES. Hamas is made up almost exclusively by Arabs. However, Hamas does not have an Arabist agenda (it is Islamist). An Arabist group is one that seeks to create a nationalist state for an Arab people or a pan-nationalist state for all Arabs. An Islamist wants to create a modern theocracy where Islamic Religious Law is the law of a government, usually of a Muslim-majority region.
