Report: Hamas Preparing Chemical Weapons
Breitbart ^ | 11/18/12 | Ben Shapiro

Posted on 11/18/2012 11:19:14 AM PST by Nachum

According to Britain’s Sunday Times, Israeli special forces are already on the ground in Gaza seeking out rockets and weapons for targeting. The Times is also reporting that Hamas may place chemical weapons on its long-range missiles. “Hamas might go for a desperate attempt to launch rockets with chemical warheads if the worst came to the worst,” one unnamed source reported.

It has been reported that Hamas is hiding its rockets underground, particularly near civilian areas including mosques, hoping that Israel will not strike such targets out of concern for civilian life.

The same report gave a timeline of the killing of Hamas military chief Ahmed Jabari:

Depends on a lot of variables...primarily the type of agent (persistent v. non-persistent), altitude and weather conditions.

Both persistent and non-persistent have their different tactical applications for a military in the field.

For a terrorist organization, either would do, and they're probably limited to whatever they could get their hands on (I'm guessing it's Sadaam's old stock that ended up in the Beqaa Valley.

I don’t see anyone asking where Hamas got its chemical weapons or long-range missiles. Are they that brilliant that they developed them on their own??? They can’t even aim their rockets effectively!

So, where did they come from? It’s clear and obvious that the rockets originally came from Iran, directly and through both Syria and Egypt. And it seems probable that the chemical weapons came from Syria. But, where did Syria get them? Yes, they could have also come from Iran. But, something no one wants to ask, especially the leftists or the MSM, but it seems quite likely, that they came from Iraq, and there is evidence to support this - yes, the infamous WMDs.

But, alas, few aappear to want to absolve Bush the Younger of the accusation that there were no WMDs! It’s too bad we, as a country, demand the truth, regardless of the political implications.

Then again, Libya had a huge supply of chem/bio weapons. There was also a rumor that some of Saddam's stockpile found its way to Libya.

That said, one might wonder at Our Great Leader's genius - perhaps some of those Libyan chem weapons were on the Libyan weapons transhipment from Turkey to Hamas. And Stevens knowing this item had to have an accident during a ‘riot’.

“Libya and WMDs

Chemical weapons

Libya maintained a chemical weapons program under Gaddafi’s rule, but it was ostensibly decommissioned in the 2000s and early 2010s as Gaddafi sought to normalise relations between the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya and the Western world. The Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) supervised the destruction of Libya’s chemical weapons caches through February 2011, when it was forced to suspend its operations due to the uprising against Gaddafi and the resulting deterioration of the country’s stability. In early September 2011, OPCW Director-General Ahmet Üzümcü said reports he had received indicated that the remaining weapons were secure and had not fallen into the hands of militant groups.] A stockpile of mustard gas, which the OPCW reported the regime may have attempted to hide from inspectors overseeing the chemical weapons program’s dismantlement, was reportedly found in the Jufra District by anti-Gaddafi fighters less than two weeks later.

Libya’s National Transitional Council is cooperating with the OCPW regarding the destruction of all legacy chemical weapons in the country.[16] After assessing the chemical stockpiles, the Libyan government will receive a deadline from the OPCW to destroy the weapons.”

Yes. Could be from Saddam, Libya, or Iran. Could be any combination or all three. The hatred of this bunch knows now bounds.
