Organization of American States Designates Hamas a Terrorist Group
20 May 2021
The Organization of American States (OAS) designated the Palestinian jihadist organization Hamas a terrorist group this week in response to a barrage of hundreds of rockets targeting civilians in Israel in the past month.
Under current Secretary-General Luis Almagro, the OAS has more prominently condemned Mideast jihadist organizations, particularly the Iran-backed Shiite terrorist group Hezbollah, which experts believe plays a prominent role in drug trafficking throughout Latin America. Despite being a Sunni Muslim group, the Iranian Islamic regime supports Hamas’ objectives and, evidence indicates, funds the terrorist group.
In a statement Monday, the OAS condemned Hamas’ ongoing rocket campaign against Israeli civilians and its endangerment of Palestinian civilians to further its objectives against Israel.

Three of the dead belonged to the Volunteers for the Defence of the Motherland (VDP), an anti-jihadist civilian defence force created in December 2019 to help the former French colony s poorly equipped military fight jihadists. The VDF has suffered more than 200 fatalities, according to an AFP tally.
