HAMAS WORKING ON CHEMICAL WEAPONS

Hamas Operatives Working on Adding Toxic Chemicals to Bombs - Amos Harel (Ha'aretz)
Hamas operatives in the West Bank have experimented with adding toxic chemicals to their bombs, security sources said.  Hamas' West Bank cells include several skilled bombmakers who are investing great effort in trying to upgrade their weapons. The organization also is amassing large stocks of explosives so operatives will be ready to launch attacks immediately should its leadership decide to end the security "lull," the sources added. A few Hamas cells - mainly around Hebron and Bethlehem - are continuing to carry out small-scale attacks.
