Hamas may be the better-known Islamist terrorist group operating out of the Gaza Strip, but its peer, the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), is no less violent and fanatical.

Created more than 40 years ago, PIJ, better known as Islamic Jihad, fired over a thousand rockets into Israel in early August, only the latest in many decades of carrying out violent terrorist attacks against Israeli civilians.

Funded and armed by Iran, Islamic Jihad is a ruthless terrorist organization that like its patron, seeks Israel’s destruction.
