Is Hamas an Islamic organization? Are the Hamas fighters who are killed shaheed?

Answer

Hamas, whilst a Muslim organization, is not an Islamic movement. It does not have as its objective the establishment of an Islamic state. Its goal is a western-type 'democratic' system. Allah Ta'ala Alone knows whether those fighting under the banner of Hamas are shaheed or not. Generally, the ordinary fighters have sincere intentions. Insha'Allah, they will be martyrs depending on their niyyat.
