That was a fairly good sized detonation. There's extensive damage throughout the city.

Place was full of confiscated ammonium nitrate. Ask the IRA about ANFO as an explosive.

 

[Wrong Element]

I have never seen a blast like that in a populated area. Injuries have got to be in the thousands.

Ammonium nitrate was the trigger for the 1947 Texas City explosion; this seems like a pretty similar event.

There is a video out there that shows what looks to be flashes of ammunition cooking off at the base of the white column of smoke just seconds before the final blast. Might have been a hidden ammo dump close to the docks. There are reports of cars being turned over a half a mile to a mile away.

There was a ship full of fireworks moored right next to the warehouse.

anyone old enough to remember oklahoma city knows what anfo can do.

 

[hobbit.]

in August its a bit fucking ironic seeing paddies whine about fertiliser bombs and yanks prattle on about domestic 'terrorism'

Anyone remember Hiroshima or Nagasaki?

Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab said the UK is "ready to offer help and support" to those affected.

Israel's foreign minister said the country had "nothing to do with the incident".

The explosion comes as Lebanon experiences its worst economic and financial crisis in decades.

It also comes amid rising tensions between Israel and the militant Hezbollah group along Lebanon's southern border.

So far they're saying 25 killed, thousands injured, but many people may be dead or injured under the debris. Balconies blown off of high rise buildings and windows shattered miles away.

 

[Liar]

Just heard about it on the news. Up to 65 dead now. Will probably rise.

 

[Aglaopheme]

Trump just called it an attack.

 

[FGB]

Probably be blamed on Israel ...or USA.

 

[Rightguide]

Now there are reports of hundreds killed and thousands wounded. The whole city impacted. General Keene USA retired is saying he's heard that it was thousands of tons of Ammonium nitrate that was detonated. Still don't know if it was an attack or an accident.

 

[sircumvent]

Trump just called it an attack.

We have a winner!!!!

 

[Rightguide]

Trump just called it an attack.

He said that's what he's being told. He said some of his generals are suggesting the possibility. I saw the interview.

 

[Conager]

I've seen AN - FO used to take out an entire bench of solid rock. 30' deep holes filed with truckloads of it.

Nothing like that.

Would take a shipload.

Also, you don't mix it till you need it. Ever.

Even if you were dumb enough to store the two components near each other you don't get that from some sort of spillover between the two.

The narrative is premixed and stored near fireworks? Who is their safety pro? Wile E. Coyote?

 

[Tryharder62]

Thinking of the people there. Video looks terrifying.

This Literotica, so stay on topic: How much pussy was lost?

He opened his press conference calling it an attack. Period. If someone asked him to clarify later during an interview, that is something else.

Why does he never name these generals? Why don't these generals ever come forward and back up Trump when he mentions these generals?
