520    Hamas's overwhelming electoral victory in January 2006 
       transformed politics in the Middle East and shocked the 
       world. Hamas was able to seize control of the entire Gaza 
       Strip in June 2007, despite its status as a terrorist 
       organization in Israel, the U.S., and the E.U. Azzam 
       Tamimi's longtime relationships and extensive interviews 
       with Hamas's leading members allow him to create a more 
       intimate portrait of Hamas in its own words. This book is 
       a history of Hamas from its origins among the Muslim 
       Brotherhood to the present
