Palestinian sources said this week that if Syria is attacked for using chemical weapons against its people, Assad is likely to instruct the PFLP-GC, which has a few thousand militiamen, to prepare for launching terror attacks against U.S., EU and Israeli interests.
According to the sources, Iran, which funds and arms some of the Palestinian terrorists, has also asked them to be prepared for launching terror attacks against Western targets.
Informed sources told the London-based Al-Quds Al-Arabi newspaper that the PFLP-GC has reached an agreement with the Syrian regime, Iran and Hizbullah to retaliate for a US-led military strike, and that Israel would be the first target of such retaliation.
Hussam Arafat, one of the leaders of the PFLP-GC, said that his group would not remain idle “while Syria is being slaughtered.”
“Any Western aggression on Syria,” he added, “would serve the interests of Israel and we will stand with Syria and join it in war.”
