The ‘Islamic Bloc’: Inculcating Hamas Ideology In Gaza Schools
Introduction
On March 17-19, 2013, an international conference on “Youth and the Palestinian Cause in Light of the Arab Spring” was held in Gaza, sponsored by Hamas Prime Minister Isma’il Haniya. The conference was organized by the “Islamic Bloc,” which started out as Hamas’s student organization, active at Gaza colleges and universities, but which over the years has extended its activity to schools, from the high school level down through the elementary school level. The Islamic Bloc also has a presence in the West Bank, but on a much smaller scale, and only among college students.
The Islamic Bloc coordinates and cooperates with Hamas and its administration in the Gaza Strip, and offers a variety of educational, cultural, social and sports activities for young people. Through these activities, its activists inculcate Hamas’s ideology and also give participants physical and weapons training to prepare them for resistance actions. The organization has an active website, and its various branches have Facebook pages that report on their activities in different parts of the Strip and in different educational facilities, attesting to their widespread presence in educational institutions throughout Gaza.
This document reviews the Islamic Bloc’s activities in the Gaza Strip, sponsored by the Hamas government, and its more limited activities in the West Bank, as well as its activity vis-à-vis Arab, Islamic and Western elements.
Hamas Officials: The Islamic Bloc – An Inseparable Part Of Hamas’s Strategy
The Islamic Bloc website clarifies its relationship with Hamas: “The Islamic Bloc is a Palestinian student organization that adopts the total Islamic perspective on education, unions, society, culture and sports. It is an ideological extension of the Islamic movement in Palestine [i.e. Hamas], and endorses this movement’s views in all domains of life: politics, society, culture, economics, etc. It has an independent organizational framework, because Hamas is a political jihadi organization… whereas [the Islamic Bloc] is a union…”
Members of Hamas and the ‘Izz Al-Din Al-Qassam Brigades have been active in the Islamic Bloc since the 1980s, including Hamas Prime Minister Isma’il Haniya and Al-Qassam founding member Yahya ‘Ayyash.
Hamas officials have praised the Islamic Bloc’s activity in schools and confirmed its affiliation with the movement. At a ceremony held by Haniya on March 4, 2013 celebrating the Islamic Bloc’s activity in the Gaza Strip, he praised its efforts in all fields and its substantial role in working with Palestinian youths in schools, universities and colleges, stressing that the Hamas government spares no effort in supporting education and students “in order to shape an intelligent, original, and outstanding generation that can elevate the homeland and liberate Palestine from the defilement of the occupation.”
During a visit by an Islamic Bloc delegation to the home of Hamas official Mahmoud Al-Zahhar, the latter praised the Bloc for its major role in spreading da’wa and assisting students, and stated that it was an inseparable part of Hamas’s strategic plan.
Islamic Bloc: Indoctrination To Jihad And Armed Struggle
The Islamic Bloc also supports the armed struggle of Hamas’s militant wing, the ‘Izz Al-Din Al-Qassam Brigades. This is reflected, for example, in an article on the Islamic Bloc’s website devoted to Sheikh ‘Izz Al-Din Al-Qassam, after whom the brigades are named, which states: “Decades after the mujahid Sheikh ‘Izz Al-Din Al-Qassam sacrificed his life on the blessed soil of Palestine, we find that the correct proposal regarding the [Palestinian] cause is the one proposed and carried out by ‘Izz Al-Din: [namely the idea of] Islam and armed struggle… [Today] we see that the ‘Izz Al-Din Al-Qassam Brigades are the ones bearing the burden of the conflict, and that ‘Izz Al-Din Al-Qassam’s way is the way chosen by the sons of Palestine: [namely the way of] Islam, revolution, and armed struggle – while many [others] have fallen into the quagmire of coexistence with the Jews.”
An image on the Facebook page of the Islamic Bloc in the eastern Gaza Strip, captioned “The ‘Izz Al-Din Al-Qassam Brigades,” depicts an Islamic conquest of the Al-Aqsa mosque in a military action. Above the caption is the Al-Qassam Brigades’ symbol.
Yazid Baker, the Islamic Bloc’s middle-school supervisor in the western Gaza Strip, said that the organization seeks to plant the spirit of jihad and perseverance in the souls of pupils, so that they become the generation that will liberate the prisoners and all the holy lands and places.

HAMAS / IZZ AL-DIN AL-QASSAM BRIGADES FUNDRAISING SCHEME
Prior to August 2020, the Hamas and Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades websites had a green banner at the top of their home page. This is how the home page of Hamas’ TV station, al-Aqsa TV, appeared on March 16, 2020:
Note the green banner at the top of the page:
The green banner contained an embedded URL that linked to the Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades website. Clicking on the green banner would open this webpage:
This was a fund raising scheme utilizing cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, to underwrite its terrorism (“resistance”). Note that the solicitation is in English. This would indicate that the fund raising scheme not only targeted Arabic speaking countries but English speaking western countries as well, such as the U.S.
In August 2020, the U.S. government seized the website, funds and assets:
U.S. DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE SEIZURE
The original Humanize Palestine website memorialized Hamas and al-Qassam Brigades terror operatives, Fadi Nasir Al-Qawasmi was one example. In their own words, they honored the deceased terror operatives as martyrs by bringing them back to life through their pictures, stories, art, and poetry.
Now the real victims have been identified. The U.S. Department of Justice has seized al-Qassam Brigades assets, funds and websites, used to finance their terror campaigns. The monies will be directed to the United States Victims of State Sponsored Terrorism Fund.
