In Gaza. In the hands of the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, a militia arm of Yasir Arafat’s al-Fatah.
The Jerusalem Post reported Sunday (but the New York Times and the rest of the US MSM are pretending they have not read it):
The Aksa Martyrs Brigades announced on Sunday that its members have succeeded in manufacturing chemical and biological weapons.

Am I missing something? I see nothing in the article that links the chemical weapons to Iraq.
Regardless I believe that different people perceive what is or is not WMD based on . . . . . . I don't know what.
Has there ever been an article about what actually "qualifies" as a "WMD" that both points of view agree on?
I think if that can be defined than it will make it easier to understand both sides. Not that I care about the "no WMD" ever found side.
Ready for smart flames - a known FreeRepublic WMD in itself. /sarcasm
actually, i think this is precisely what happened to most of saddam's WMD. these penniless fools in the PA couldn't make twenty different kinds of chemical and biological weapons on their own in 3 years. no way, no how.
To be honest most people are now defining WMDs as any substance or object capable of killing anyone.
Personally, I only consider true nuclear (fission or fusion, not dirty) bombs and actual communicable disease biological weapons as WMDs.
Is this headline deceiving, Admin?
nice catch, teacherwoes.
My definition's a little easier:
A LOT of death on a little package.
More bad news for Democrats. First, the economy is booming, next unemployment is at its lowest point in decades and now more WMD are found In Iraq.
Pretty soon the only issue Dems will have is that he is spending too much. Can't you just see Dems building an election campaign around reduced spending?
WMD rightfully contains nuclear, biological and chemical weapons designed to kill or harm large numbers of people.
I went to the link you posted- and followed THAT link to the Jerusalem Post..it only reports that the Palestinians say they've developed and have ready to use- bio/chem weapons.
Gaza is not Iraq. The headline on the link is misleading- intentional or otherwise...
Thanks, I appreciate it.
NBC is WMD. Nuclear. Biological. Chemical.
