Syria claims Israel attacked targets near Damascus ~ US warns airlines ~ BREAKING: FIRE AT CHLORINE PLANT IN NJ MAY HAVE BEEN IRANIAN TERROR ATTACK INTENDED TO KILL THOUSANDS Syria claims Israel attacked targets near Damascus Sounds of explosions were reportedly heard in the vicinity of the Syrian capital Damascus on Friday evening. Syrian media claimed the explosions were the result of an Israeli air strike on the country. The official Syrian news agency SANA reported that the country’s aerial defense systems targeted “luminous objects coming from occupied territories, shooting down a number of them.” Syrian TV aired footage of what it claimed were the “luminous objects” that were fired from Israel. http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/263321 Syrian sources: We shot down objects coming from Israel Syrian military sources reported an Israeli attack on targets in the vicinity of Damascus on Friday night and claimed that their air defenses shot down “luminous objects” coming from the direction of Quneitra [on the Israeli border.} They did not specify whether this was an air or missile strike. There were also reports of sirens sounding in Damascus and at least “five powerful explosions.” https://www.debka.com/mivzak/syrian-sources-we-shot-down-objects-coming-from-israel/ Saudi newspaper calls on Washington to launch strikes on Iran A state-aligned Saudi newspaper has called for “surgical” US strikes in retaliation against alleged threats from Iran.  The Arab News published an editorial in English on Thursday, arguing that after incidents this week against Saudi energy targets, the next logical step “should be surgical strikes.”  https://www.timesofisrael.com/saudi-newspaper-calls-on-washington-to-launch-strikes-on-iran/ US warns airlines against flying over Persian Gulf The US Federal Aviation Administration has warned commercial airlines flying over the Persian Gulf of the risk of being “misidentified” in the heightened tensions between the US and Iran. The warning came as Lloyds of London also cautioned shipping in the region of increased risks. https://www.debka.com/mivzak/us-warns-airlines-against-flying-over-persian-gulf/ IRGC chief: We are in full intelligence war with America New Iranian Revolutionary Guards chief Maj. Gen. Hossein Salami was quoted as saying by Fars news agency on Saturday: “We are in a full intelligence war with the United States and the enemies of the Islamic Republic. This war is a combination of psychological warfare, cyber operations, military operations, diplomacy, fear, and intimidation.” He went on to say: “America has lost its power, and even though they look powerful, they are frail,” he said, adding: “In reality America’s story is the same as the story of the World Trade Center that collapsed suddenly with one strike.” https://www.debka.com/mivzak/irgc-chief-we-are-in-full-intelligence-war-with-america/ BREAKING NEWS: FIRE AT CHLORINE PLANT IN NEW JERSEY MAY HAVE BEEN IRANIAN TERROR ATTACK INTENDED TO KILL THOUSANDS A factory in Kearny, New Jersey which manufactures chlorine and other disinfectants, suffered a catastrophic fire last night, with local authorities in nearby Jersey City, Hoboken and New York City ordering residents to stay inside and close their windows.  Now, authorities are quietly saying the fire was no accident and are looking at whether Iran or its proxies intended to cause a massive release of Chlorine Gas to murder tens-of-thousands in northern New Jersey and New York City? Late Friday night, when the blaze broke out at the Alden Leads chemical company on Jacobus Avenue in Kearny, officials from Kearny, Bayonne, Hoboken and Newark all urged residents in their towns to remain inside their homes and to keep their windows closed because huge plumes of smoke were drifting over the region. The large fire at a chlorine chemical plant in Hudson County continues to burn Saturday and although it is under control, authorities have kept the Pulaski Skyway (Truck Routes 1 & 9) closed in both directions and continue to test the air quality to ensure the air is safe to breathe. FAILED TERROR ATTACK Some investigators are now saying it appears that someone intended for the plant to be ruptured, but NOT to go on fire, and their effort failed, causing a major fire instead of a major chemical release.  According to one Investigator, it LOOKS like  whoever perpetrated this focused on the factory instead of the liquid chlorine storage tanks nearby.  That potential mistake saved upwards of a million lives. Had liquid chlorine begun pouring out onto the ground, it would have begun evaporating into Chlorine gas, which would have been carried by prevailing winds, and which would have killed anyone who came in contact with it.  As winds carried the gas eastward, many of the 300,000 residents of Jersey City, and 100,000 residents of Hoboken would have been killed within minutes.  As the gas crossed the Hudson River into Manhattan and even into nearby Brooklyn, hundreds-of-thousands more would have been killed as well. "This would have made the attacks of 9-11 look like  a kid's game" said one investigator. "One breath of this would severely burn the lungs of anyone who got a whiff. The human body's response to such chemical burns in the lungs would be to flood the lungs with water, thus causing victims to foam at the mouth and ultimately drown on their own body fluids within minutes." In fact, anyone who merely walked near the fumes would have found themselves almost instantly BLINDED as the chlorine hit their eyes. "They'd be instantly blind and choking to death on chlorine.  Bodies would have piled up on the streets" the Investigator continued. Said another investigator "If this was, in fact, an attempted Terrorist Attack, they screwed up . . . and we lucked  out."   This particular Chlorine plant has long been on a list of industrial locations ripe for Terror attacks.  In 2005, The New York Times did a major story about how many such facilities in the US are vulnerable, and that report (HERE) mentioned this particular plant in New Jersey. "To have this incident take place at the precise time when tensions between Iran and the United States appear to be boiling over as it relates to Economic Sanctions over the Iran Nuclear Deal, reeks of an Iranian Proxy or Sleeper Cell attempting to carry out a terror attack upon the United States" said a law enforcement official. Perhaps this incident is why military activity in the Persian Gulf suddenly spiked overnight. "Perhaps Iran is waiting to be blamed for what has taken place, and they know that once the blame comes, war with the United States absolutely, positively, follows." Said one person at the scene today - who overheard this reporter's questions about possible terrorism - "We've dealt with terrorists before; they should have learned . . . . we don't take kindly to people who try to kill us.  Perhaps it's time to re-teach that lesson." Was this massive fire at a Kearny, NJ chlorine plant an attempted terror attack by Iranian Proxies or a Sleeper Cell?  Authorities are not saying.  Yet. https://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/en/news-page/news-nation/breaking-news-fire-at-chlorine-plant-in-new-jersey-may-have-been-iranian-terror-attack-intended-to-kill-thousands Israel Attacked Syria last night:  DAMASCUS UNDER AIR ATTACK - AIR DEFENSE MISSILES LAUNCHING - SONIC BOOMS EVERYWHERE! https://voat.co/v/GreatAwakening/3225359#submissionTop Syria reports second Israeli attack in a row on Saturday  Syria’s SANA reports that its air defense Saturday again targeted “projectiles” coming from “occupied territory” for the second night running – and again over Al Kisweh south of Damascus.
