Hamas has reportedly received instructions from its leaders in Syria to carry out a mega terror attack.

Hamas leaders in Damascus instructed the group’s loyalists in the West Bank to carry out a large-scale terror attack in Israel, the Shin Bet [Israel Security Agency] deputy director said during Sunday’s cabinet meeting.

No surprises that Hamas would plan the wholesale slaughter of innocent civilians, considering their goals. And no surprises that they would receive such instructions from their leaders in Syria, which continues to provide terror leaders a safe haven and logistical support, despite Syria’s claims of desiring peace.

And still on the subject of Syria..

A member of the Arab Nationalist Movement’s liaison department, Ahmad Mahmoud Al-Jamal, died on Saturday.

Al-Jamal was born in 1940 in the Palestinian village of Lubya. He was one of the founders of the Palestine Liberation Organisation (PLO).

Al-Jamal worked in the PLO’s Damascus-based office until his death.

That the same PLO that is controlled by “moderate” Mahmoud Abbas’ and his Fatah buddies. Which begs the question: if they are truly our peace partners, why would some of their leadership be located in this terrorist safe haven?

I think we all know the answer to this.
