@panafrican85: BREAKING NEWS ISRAEL WARNS WASHINGTON THAT IRAN COULD BE PREPARING CHEMICAL WEAPONS ATTACKS According to The New York Times, Netanyahu’s government has been sharing intelligence with Washington suggesting that Iran could be preparing chemical attacks, potentially involving missiles or drones. However, some U.S. officials reportedly suspect that Israel may be using these intelligence warnings to pressure President Trump into authorizing another round of military strikes against Iran. Gulf officials who received similar warnings were reportedly unconvinced. One official questioned the claims, saying Israel had not provided evidence to substantiate its allegations. But here’s where things get particularly interesting. The controversy is already drawing comparisons to the intelligence claims used to justify the 2003 invasion of Iraq, when the United States accused Saddam Hussein’s government of possessing weapons of mass destruction. Those allegations became central to the justification for a war that profoundly reshaped the Middle East. To be clear, concerns about chemical weapons research are different from evidence that a country is preparing to deploy them. The evidence matters, especially when the consequences could be another devastating war. SOURCE: The NYT
