Rihanna had denied claims that she supports the Palestinian Authority after a tweet was sent from her official account early today. 
A tweet that simply contained the hashtag '#FreePalestine' was sent from the singer's account on Monday morning.
 
But TMZ claimed that after she was inundated with questions from fans asking if she supported Hamas, the tweet was removed with eight minutes of first appearing.The message was quickly gone from her Twitter feed, and a source close to the singer said she had not intended to send it. 
'She deleted it because it was never meant to be tweeted. She didn't even realize it was a tweet until she started hearing from her fans,' the person, speaking to TMZ on condition on anonymity, said.
