Crazy Explosion at Beirut Port (video)

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Why don’t you wait for some evidence before accusing another country’s intelligence service?
Conspiracy nuts will have a field day.

Why wait

 

[BimboBob]

There will be hundreds of totally made up rumours that will circulate round social media, mostly about Israel.

What? Made up shit on social media? Well I'll be...

"at least" 40 dead.

If rumour tells us its Mossad, then we should consider it Conspiracy Theory.

If rumour tells us its Hizbollah then the whole world should gang up against them.

Logic right there.

 

[BlueAnorak]

Holy crap. Thats a big explosion - A couple of kilotonnes of TNT I'd say

 

[BimboBob]

From the video of the smoke plume before the explosion there looks like a load of tiny "sparkles" going off before the big bang. Fireworks? Or ammo? An ammo/ explosive store would explain the massive blast after.

Logic right there.

How about we ignore rumours and wait for some facts.

 

[manchester blue]

Jesus, that’s terrifying. Hope casualties are minimal.

If rumour tells us its Hizbollah then the whole world should gang up against them.

Logic right there.

And if it was an accident?

Reminiscent of the explosion in Cyprus back in 2011 when ordinance had been poorly stored.

Remember that. Poorly stored was cover the confiscated explosives with tarpaulin and wash it down with water to keep it cool... in a place where temperatures can exceed 40 it is a ticking bomb.
