**A massive explosion yesterday of Hamas weapons in weapons factory and storage area in the middle of a residential neighborhood in the Beit Lahiya in northern Gaza wounded more than 20 Hamas members and more than 30 women and children living in the neighborhood. The factory was part of a training camp of the military wing of Hamas, the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades.

The cause of the explosion remains unclear; however, last week an IS group in Gaza fired a rocket at a similar Hamas base in Khan Younis.
**In yet another incredible statement detached from reality, President Obama astonished reporters and attendees at Camp David yesterday when he refused to characterize Syrian use of “chlorine” as the use of a chemical weapon.
Obama’s exact words: “Chlorine itself is not listed as a chemical weapon.”
He even went on to say that it was possible that Assad regime in Syria might be using chlorine for “non-threatening” purposes.
Can you even believe any of this?
Hundreds of Syrian civilians have been killed by chlorine gas–a gas that was first used as a chemical weapon by the German Army against the British in a battle in France in 1915. Everyone knows that chlorine can be used as a chemical weapon.
Everyone but Obama.
TODAY’S BLOG:
Speaking of flabbergasting statements, President Obama uncorked another one yesterday at Camp David:
“I continue to believe that a two-state solution is absolutely vital for not only peace between Israelis and Palestinians, but for the long-term security of Israel as a Democratic and Jewish state and I know that a government has been formed that contains some folks who don’t necessarily believe in that premise.”
In Obama’s warped mind, the reason that there is no peace between Palestinians and Israelis is all because there are people in Israel who do not believe in a two state solution. It is all Israel’s fault all the time.
Really?
Here is what the Palestinian Parliament said yesterday:
About 80% individuals have reported this treatment safe and successful- levitra professional Take only one dosage after the gap of 24 hours The tablet should be taken 40 min before sexual act The person should swallow the tablet with a glass of water The tablet should not be taken with high fat meal which will reduce the effect of the drug.

—Jews have no right to any state in Palestine. The land of Israel is “Islamic property”, and Jews have “no right to even a single centimeter of it.” Palestinians will never recognize Israel.
—The Palestinian “right of return” is sacred and will never be given up.
In affirming the above two points, the deputy speaker of the Parliament, Ahmed Bahar, had this to say:
“The occupation state of Israel was established on the body parts and skulls of children, women and elderly Palestinians who were killed in massacres during which many Palestinians were expelled from their land.”
For his part, Mahmoud Abbas, the unelected President of the Palestinian Authority (unlike the democratically elected government of Israel that Obama so reviles) chimed in with new preconditions for restarting peace talks yesterday:
1. A halt to the building of all Jewish homes, schools, and hospitals in all Jewish communities in Judea, Samaria, and Jerusalem.
2. The immediate release of Palestinian murderers who were in prison prior to 1994.
3. An agreement that talks will last for a minimum of one year during which time a specific timetable of Israeli withdrawal will be produced.
4. That Israeli withdrawal from all of Judea, Samaria, and Jerusalem to be completed by December 31, 2017.
These are just the Palestinian preconditions necessary for starting the talks. What the Palestinians really want, as expressed by the Palestinian Parliament, is the movement of more that 5,000,000 so-called Palestinian “refugees” to Israel–a movement which would spell the end of Israel.
And Obama believes that the problem is that people in the new Netanyahu government do not believe in a two-state solution?
Unbelievable.
A student from Malawi, who had worked with an Israeli health volunteer in his country battling AIDS, came up to us as we walked down the street in the UC-Davis Picnic Day Parade and wanted to carry the Israeli flag.
