I'm not sure I can agree with this interpretation of Hamas. There are many groups seeking justice for the Palestinians. Some are secular Arab nationalist or have other political philosophies. Hamas is trying to do it by imposing their interpretation of Islam on others. They are Jihadi Islamic terrorists. Their particular version of Jihadism descends from the Muslim Brothers through their Secret Apparatus, and is different from other Jihadi terrorist groups (ISIS was thrown out of al-Qa'ida, and Boko Haram was thrown out of ISIS), but it is still jihadi terrorism that is trying to impose its version of Islam on others.

Boko Haram, ISWAP, ISIS, who are seeking to impose their version of Islam on others through violence are of course different from Hamas who are seeking justice in connection with the loss of Palestinian homeland.
