Article 8 of the 1988 Hamas Covenant states, quote, jihad is its path, and death for the sake of Allah is the loftiest of his wishes. This is who Tucker Carlson is defending. Globally, Hamas is designated a terrorist organization by the United States of America. That's as a matter of federal law. By Australia, by Canada, by Paraguay, by Israel, by Japan, by New Zealand, by the United Kingdom and the European Union. Now, Hamas is not formally designated by Arab countries, but Hamas is a branch of the Muslim Brotherhood. (23:21–23:35)
