OT: Beirut Explosion

[Deleted member 26015]

I cannot fully rule out external behaviour, but the chances of an attack are very, very, very low. A lot of explosives create this shape of explosion. Some dude actually went on Twitter and said it was atomic.

And again, just compare Enschede in 2000 with this explosion. Its the same.

Why the **** store that much destruction potential at such an important port? That is just crazy. Could very well have been an accident, but why store that stuff where it can do so much damage if an accident happens?

"Hezbollah, long known as the OSHA of the middle east..." said noone ever.

Smells like Israel

Burning Ships in Iran Add to String of Dozens of Explosions and Fires (Published 2020)

Iranian officials say that some of the explosions at factories and military facilities, and some forest fires, may have been sabotage but blamed weather and accidents for the others.

Someone over there thought it was fertilizer that had just been unloaded from a ship. I'm not sure. That may be inaccurate.

Its been ages since we've gotten an acurate report from the middle east...

Dude this is CIS. Of course someone here will pretend to be a munitions expert.

Thats the funniest **** I've read all day.

I might be broken because I'm not really that impressed by that explosion. The atomized water made it look super scary. Just another big boom.

There have been some serious chemical plant explosions and this one was one of the biggest. This was a series of several explosions with the biggest one near the end.

The dangerous thing about this (aside from the obvious loss of life, etc) is that Lebanon was already a country in a lot of turmoil economically and beyond and this could definitely exacerbate that whole dynamic.

Lebanon is another example deep rooted hatred between peoples that over many years many people have died. Hate for any human eventually leads to murder. Yet those who hate find justification in their simple reasoning's. Not saying this had anything to do with the explosion.

You don’t say.

PLO, ****es, Iran, Christian militias, and next door to Israel. Long term civil war over power with normal religious backdrop. Whole middle east is strange. A country can have Jews, Christians, Moslems or even different types of Moslems living next to each other for hundreds of years and then a match gets lit and it is bloody hatred. Pick a reason and a side but friends start killing each other. The big boys provide money and weapons because they see advantage or need to. It can, and maybe is about to happen here. If it does, the middle east will look like a summer social.

I know your type, but I agree here. Only thing you didn't mention is that you back the Person who is throwing the jet fuel on our volatile racial situation here in America.

Maybe it's been posted already but I just saw 2700 tonnes of ammonium nitrate that the government seized six years ago had been stored in a facility at the port, likely with minimal safety precautions.

You don’t say

Man you’re an insufferable douche.

 

[Tad Footeball]

Well the definitive and always accurate source has spoken....

 

[Tad Footeball]

You don’t say.

If you're implying that this has always been the case with Lebanon and there's no shifting in levels of economic stability/prosperity and even security in that region then I do say.....that your remark is pointless.

Well the definitive and always accurate source has spoken....

This is how i picture you everytime the thought of tbe president comes to your mind...
