Hamas Islamist fighters said they had taken control of the Palestinian presidential compound in Gaza on Thursday, calling it the "last bastion" of President Mahmoud Abbas's secular Fatah forces in the enclave.
The broadcast on a Hamas-run radio station said "the last bastion of corruption has fallen". Hamas fighters had earlier surrounded the compound. Abbas is in his West Bank stronghold.
"Hamas takes control of Gaza Strip"
"Hamas overruns Gaza as Abbas sacks govt"
But what the western media did not tell us is that this did not come as a total surprise!
On wednesday 13-6-2007 "the battalions of izzeddin al-qassam" which belong to Hamas gave to the palestinian security forces a deadline until 16th of June 6 PM Greenwich Time to deliver their weapons.
By 11 AM Thursday, Hamas said it was in control of the Preventative Security compound and would be holding Friday's Islamic prayers in Abbas's former office ...
Hundreds of Fatah terrorists were seen surrendering to Hamas in Gaza Wednesday ahead of an ultimatum set by Hamas that ends Friday night. Hundreds of members of a mercenary local clan fighting for Fatah surrendered, ending a pitched two-day battle. The Bakr clan members were led to a local mosque. Hamas blew up one of the clan’s homes and women were shot dead when they tried to transport a sick girl to the hospital, according to PA reports.
"Hamas Completes Gaza Takover, Fatah Men Flee to Egypt" So the deadline set by Hamas will lapse on Saturday June the 16 th at 6 PM GMT!
And I'm curious what else we are not told!

We're ALSO NOT TOLD that the Baha'i World Centre is atop Mount Carmel, Haifa, Israel, as foretold in Holy Scripture.
We're NOT TOLD about God's fulfillment of His promises to send the Qaim and Mahdi, Whose coming May 23, 1844 and Return in 1853-1892 is the driving dynamic behind this world turmoil.
Clergy everywhere, desirous of maintaining their fragile hold over the hearts and minds of their congregations have RE-INTERPRETED all the prophecies which point so clearly to Christ's Return in 1844 and set them to '...then...' as in 'some indeterminate time PAST THAT POINT...' because obviously the clergy didn't SEE Chrise AT THAT POINT (May 23, 1844)
But in so doing, today's clergy have placed themselves and their apologists firmly on the sidelines of reality, the fringes of history, waiting for 'Jesus to come down out of the SKY' instead of recognizing 'Christ come down out of heaven'
Because of the world's clergy, the Muslim ummah have been deprived of the knowledge and instructions for humankind BROUGHT by the Glory of God, Baha'u'llah, and have sunk into the hatred and ignorance that perforce MUST EXIST in the absence of love and knowledge!
THIS is what 'they are not telling us!'
