Middle East on the Brink: Palestinians Claim to Have Fired Chemical Weapon at Israel

Israeli forces have conducted massive raids throughout the Palestinian territories arresting over 40 Hamas lawmakers including the Hamas Minister of Labor and the Deputy Palestinian Prime Minister. At this rate, it is entirely possible that most of political leadership of Hamas will be in custody or dead in the next 48 hours. For their part, the Palestinians announced that they have fired a Chemical weapon into Israel; the Israelis have yet to confirm this Palestinian claim, but it is telling that the Palestinians would take pride in announcing such a disturbing claim. Meanwhile: Israeli F-16’s buzzed the vacation home of Syrian President Bashir Assad while he was in the house. Flying at low altitude, the planes broke the sound barrier over the Syrian President’s head generating earth-shattering sonic booms. The message: We know where you are and if we wanted too, we could have flattened your house with you in it.
