Palestinian Civil War Watch - Hamas terrorists storm broadcast facility

As the deadline for Hamas to agree to the 'Prisoners' Document' or go to a referendum nears, things are getting a little 'tense.'

Today, Hamas terrorists stormed a Palestine TV broadcast facility in Khan Younis, expelling workers from the building and destroying expensive equipment in a shooting rampage, employees said. There were no reports of injuries. In other words, an ordinary temper tantrum.

The Jerusalem Post reports:

About 15 gunmen fired in the air as they entered the broadcasting station. "You are collaborators. You are biased. You are dirty people," they screamed, according to the workers. [Huh? I thought this was 'Palestinian' television - not al-AP, al-Reuters or AFP. CiJ]

The gunmen expelled employees from the building, beat up a cameraman and fired their weapons at cameras and other equipment, the witnesses said. They left the building after several minutes.

The facility is used to transmit signals for state-run television and radio broadcasts. [But I thought Hamas is the 'state' now in 'Palestine.' Silly me. CiJ]

I must admit to some confusion here....
