    The condensation cloud in the Beirut explosion reminded me of film of the 1965 Operation Sailor Hat test (500 tons TNT) on Kahoolawe Island.

    I wonder what quantity of exploding ammonium nitrate would be equivalent to 500 tons of TNT.

    1976 worked with an older fellow who was convinced that the Texas City ammonium nitrate explosion was the work of nazi agents still at large.
    At the time I doubted the possibilities of such but have since found out that yeah, he could have been right.

    One thing's for sure, it definitely for sure wasn't Israel. Not at all. They released a statement saying it wasn't us, you guys. A statement! Case closed.

    CASE.

    CLOSED.

    The Mossad will close it for you if you don't believe it's closed. I think those guys learned a lot from the SDECE.

    It's the fault of whomever allowed thousands of tons of Ammonium Nitrate to sit on the dock.

    Rumor has it that it was a long-time argument amongst a few governments (it was seized from a Russian ship or something several years ago).

    Maybe it's also quiet because to acknowledge that part of the world means acknowledging the terrorist organizations in that part of the world, and people don't want to be reminded of the bad guys that continue to go about their business...

    The cameras caught the "missile" coming in at the same angle from different directions?
    Is this some sophisticated stir the pot editing? Beats me.

    Sophisticated? Pfft. It's drawing a line in four frames of a black and white grainy video.



    THIS is a sophisticated fake video:

    There was also a "mysterious explosion" in Tehran, a "massive explosion" in North Korea, an "explosion" at a Chinese Chemical factory in addition to the Beirut explosion... oh yeah all on the same day.

    Not Israel for sure.

    You can find pictures and videos from 2018 and before of IDF discussing Iran backed Hezbollah missile launch sites in that exact area.

    Lebanon currently in a state of revolution since October of 2019. Civil revolt over the lack of basic services such as water, electricity, and sanitation. A new Prime Minister backed by Hezbollah.

    Videos of thermobaric weapons used by Russia on Syria have that same vapor blast impulse.

    Sabotage a shipment/storage of fireworks next to a storage of fertilizer to create a cover story.

    I don't know... it all seems too conspiratorial to me...
