Introducing 'Another Take' – joining you now every Saturday and Sunday, revisiting stories we’ve done that are in the news again. 

This episode was originally published on June 14, 2021.

The Palestinian group Hamas doesn't fit neatly into the labels some try to fit them into — terrorist, freedom fighter, armed group, political party. On the anniversary of Hamas’s takeover of the Gaza Strip, we're looking at the past, present, and future of the group, and most importantly, its impact on people living in the territory.

In this episode:
Khaled Al Hroub, Professor of Middle Eastern Studies at Northwestern University Qatar and author of two books about Hamas
Mohammad Alsaafin (@malsaafin), Senior Producer at AJ+

Episode credits:

This episode was updated by Amy Walters. The original production team was Priyanka Tilve, Alexandra Locke, Dina Kesbeh, Amy Walters, Ney Alvarez, Stacey Samuel, Negin Owliaei, Tom Fenton, and Malika Bilal. 

Our sound designer is Alex Roldan. Our lead of audience development and engagement is Aya Elmileik. Adam Abou-Gad is our engagement producer.
