Hamas was created to destroy Israel. They tried to destroy Israel since 2006 but they did not come close. They bombed Israel over 50,000 times and only 131 people died.

Hamas was founded by Sheikh Ahmed Yassin, a Palestinian spiritual leader who became an activist in the local branch of the Muslim Brotherhood after dedicating his early life to Islamic scholarship in Cairo. Beginning in the late 1960s, Yassin preached and performed charitable work in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, both of which were seized by Israeli forces following the 1967 Six-Day War. In 1973, he established al-Mujamma' al-Islami (the Islamic Center) to coordinate the Muslim Brotherhood's political activities in Gaza. Eventually as Fatah and other secular-aligned Palestinian militant groups were less and less successful, the Muslim Brotherhood stepped into the breach as a theocratic-aligned Palestinian militant group. The rest, as they say, is history.
