Palestinian official condemns "the Zionist Obama administration... the axis of international terrorism" for interference in Syria
“The General Secretariat of the General Federation of Palestinian Workers condemned the threats made by the American administration and its allies of carrying out an act of cruel military aggression against the Arab Syrian Republic. It emphasized that any act of terrorist aggression against Syria is [in fact] an act of aggression against the entire Arab nation, which must be stopped. In addition, it said that the disgrace of the policy and all the aggressive acts carried out by the Zionist Obama administration, which is the axis of international terrorism, must be exposed. It added that its objective [in attacking Syria] is to destroy the Syrian state, divide Syria along sectarian and religious [lines] and weaken the people and army of this Arab country, a circumstance which will eventually lead to establishing a new fact in the entire Arab region and to redrawing the map of the region in a way that will serve the agenda and plans of the expanding settler occupation state (i.e., Israel).”
