January 2nd, 2003 Manual for poisons and chemical gases published on Hamas website

A manual published on the official Hamas website, titled "The Mujahadeen Poisons Handbook," has been discovered, which is a manual for preparing poisonous materials to use in a terrorist attack. This document is further evidence of Hamas' use of the internet as a means of assistance in its efforts to carry out terrorist attacks. In fact, Fatah operative Walid Mahamud Hasham el-Ara, has been indicted in an Israeli military court in Gaza for using the internet to collect information on how to produce biological weapons.

See IDF website article about the indictment

The 23-page manual, written by Abdel-Aziz in 1996, details for terrorists how to prepare various homemade poisons, chemical poisons, poisonous gases and other deadly materials for use in terrorist attacks against Israelis, Westerners, and anyone else who stands in the way of an Islamic Jihad.

Introduction

Aziz begins the manual with an introduction that blesses those on Islamic Jihad. He quotes the Prophet Muhammad, "you will conquer Constantinople and Rome."

*Editor's note: A well-known religious document cites the Prophet Muhammad, who was asked about Muslim victories, and which city would be conquered first - Constantinople or Rome. Muhammad answered Constantinople would be conquered first.

It is believed that the conquest of Rome will mark Islam's return to Europe, as it is considered the seat of Christianity.

This claim by Muhammad has been used frequently by leading Muslim Sheikhs, including Sheikh Yousef Al-Qaradhawi, who is one of the most influential clerics in Sunni Islam.

In addition, the Saudi Sheikh Muhammad bid Abd Al-Rahman Al-'Arifi has claimed recently that Islam will, "control the land of the Vatican… [the Christians] will yet pay us the Jiziya [poll tax paid by non-Muslims under Muslim rule], in humiliation, or they will convert to Islam."

Aziz writes that the information in his booklet is, "esoteric knowledge and must only be passed on to those who truly intend to us it Fee-Sabeelillah [along the path of Allah]. The information in the manual is derived from a course on poisoning he took with other terrorists. The products were used on rabbits to test their effectiveness.

The author warns his readers, "Be very careful when preparing poisons. It is much, much more dangerous than preparing explosives! I know several Mujahids [Jihad warriors] whose bodies are finished due to poor protection, etc."

In the end, he provides advice for those who are overzealous to become terrorists.

"I had to add this warning as I've seen a strange trend in wannabe Mujahids lately," Aziz writes. "Don't become an over paranoid James Bond figure, especially when you haven't done anything illegal even!

"Equally, don't think there is such a thing as a super terrorist. I've been with the likes of Black September and associates of Carlos the Jackel, and just like the 'special forces,' they're only human."

He closes his introduction with words of inspiration," The training and preparation is nothing compared to the strength of the individual's character and the assistance Allah provides on the day."

Recipe Book

Below are two examples of instructions provided in the manual. Please note that the information provided below is purposely incomplete, so that it cannot actually be used.

Cyanides

Name: Potassium Cyanide
Chemical Name: KCN
Appearance: Deliquescent crystalline salt
Lethal Dose: *****
Time to Death: 3-4 minutes

Preparations:

1. Add **gm of ***** - found in printing shops to 3 gm of ***** or 3 gm of *****, and grind them both together in a beaker.
2. Heat: until it turns black
3. Put about **ml of ***** into the beaker and mix. Allow the mixture to cool.
4. Filter. The KCN is dissolved in the water.
5. To obtain the powder form, evaporate the water.

Precautions:

Even though neither ***** nor ***** is poisonous, you MUST wear gloves and a gas mask during preparation and handling of cyanides. Do not touch it even with a gloved hand. Inhalation of its odor will lead to headaches, dizziness, fever and stomach pain. If by mistake it touches the mouth, give huge amounts of water and induce vomiting. Keep away from acid.

Notes:

...it is notorious as an intensely powerful poison. By mouth, by injection or by skin. KCN is the most powerful chemical poison. If using skin penetration, you must dissolve in olive oil as it will penetrate the skin and hide the smell to some extent. KCN can also be use in most face creams - especially ***** - for easy skin penetration.

Hydrogen Sulfide Gas

Chemical Formula: H2S
Odor: Feces/bad eggs. Odorless in large quantities

Preparation: 2:5 Solution 5g ***** + ***** NB: Good quality ***** should have a strong smell

Notes: This gas is better than HCN because it destroys the breathing system rather than simply stopping it. Death in 30 seconds.

Using Gases Two bottles, each containing one of the reactants, are strapped together and flung at the target area.
