Where is the explosion on that map, because if it's in Zaituna Bay and that blast partially damaged the airport, then that city is fricked six ways from Sunday?

EDIT: Nevermind. I mistook the white line for a highway. They're fricked.

The fireworks explosion didnt have either

Bulk storage of the nitrate could potentially have enough energy to create that explosion.

Reminds me of the explosion in West, Texas that killed all those people about 5 or 10 years ago.

A small Ryder truck filled with Nitrate leveled the Federal Building in OKC.

I can only imagine that a 10 story building filled with grain dust and nitrate can absolutely do what we see in these videos...

“Highly explosive materials” - no shite!!! Wonder what the hell it was?


Wasn't this the same warehouse two years ago that Israel accused Iran of shipping short range ICBM missiles too?

Lebanese Red Cross official Georges Kettaneh just said hundreds if not thousands of casualties in Beirut explosion.
