MASSIVE explosion in Beirut levels entire city blocks

Should President Trump offer the use of our Navy Hospital Ships to help the Beirut blast victims?

Explosions do not create earthquakes.

Tell me, was your frontal lobotomy professionally done or did you do it yourself?

Look silly you said that explosions create earthquakes, they do not. Explosions can create the same or similar seismic waves as earthquakes, however seismic waves are not earthquakes, are they simpleton?

Yawning

Hey American Jihad Sock, Get a grip on yourself. No, not there. I said that the explosion caused an earthquake of around 4.0. It did. A quake of the earth is a shudder, a vibration, a shaking of the ground. I didn't say the quake was caused by the same forces as a natural earthquake---- tectonic plates moving.

Beirut blast: Massive explosion shakes Lebanon's capital; at least 70 dead, thousands injured CNN NEW Day just said POTUS Trump order this Blast and it was really set of by animal manure to densley piled Who should America Believe the BBC or CNN?

Actually an earthquake is when one tectonic plate slides over under or alongside another one

You keep farting your ignorance though, its amusing

i have lost my community, my city, but i haven't yet lost God!

That's a tectonic earthquake.

If you're out in the woods and the earth shakes violently and you fall over, how are you going to tell a natural earthquake from a man-made one caused by a massive detonation far away? Whatcha gonna call it, Ace?

That's why we have earthquakes, moon quakes, even star quakes.

 

[GHook20]

Pray for the dead and injured if thats your thing and HOPE this isn't terrorism.

There are theories on what happened. Hezbollah was stock piling fertilizer and explosives for a massive terrorist attack on Israel. Stockpiling that many munitions is dangerous and it accidentally ignited.

Is it fun being retarded?


earthquake
[ˈərTHˌkwāk]

NOUN

1. a sudden and violent shaking of the ground, sometimes causing great destruction, as a result of movements within the earth's crust or volcanic action.

See fool an earthquake is not caused by chemical explosions.

Except in the little guppy pond that you use for a mind

That wasn't fireworks. that was some pro-level stuff.

You're correct... From the latest reports the explosion was the result of the improper strorage of 2,750 tons of Ammonium Nitrate manufactured for industrial explosive use in mining named Nitropril (Nitroprill HD).
The material stored was of Russian manufacture undoubtedly unstable in the high temperatures of Beirut.
Was it an accident?
Why was the major power in Lebanon (Hezbollah) keeping this stored?

Beirut blast: Confiscated ammonium nitrate from ship in 2014 could have sparked deadly explosion

It’s still unclear what triggered the explosion but the unloaded ammonium nitrate from the ship dumped in a warehouse at the port after being confiscated is being seen as the cause of the blast that could have been sparked by excessive heat.

www.indiatoday.in

"The Nitroprill HD indicating high density is probably physically robust porous prill with a built-in resistance to breakdown due to temperature cycling and abrasion as indicated by western experts."

Lebanon's Chernobyl moment

On the evening of Aug. 4, Beirut witnessed an unprecedented explosion that ruined a large part of the city, injuring thousands and killing many.

[Marion Morrison]

Lebanese Interior Minister Mohamed Fahmy to Al-Jadeed TV:

"The highly explosive materials that were in storage No. 12 are ammonium nitrate, and one has to ask what such a large amount does in the port?"

It waits to get shipped out to farms and farm supply warehouses, duh!
I know where 2 spots like that are here. This stuff's for enriching soil, though.

 

[Marion Morrison]

The reports out of Beirut say there were 2,700 tons of ammonium nitrate stored in the warehouse since 2014. This, despite warnings it was dangerous.

By comparison, the OK City bombers used 2 tons of it.

That's the report I read. It also stated it came from a ship six years ago and was stored in a warehouse ever since.

I think if that stuff gets wet, it start getting hot..and can self-combust.
6 years is a long time to store stuff like that.

 

[basquebromance]

before the economic crisis in Lebanon, it cost 40 thousand liras to buy a book about Trump. now it costs 200 thousand...that was BEFORE the explosion

FOX News is no longer available on cable in the country, but still is online. MSNBC is still on cable!

Whoever is counting lebanon out...can't count!

It sure is. Especially near a fireworks factory. Seems like a lot of negligence and incompetence at play.

Another coincidence....Hezbollah Secretary-General explaining their future plans....back in 2016

 

[basquebromance]

what if the folks who did it used that speech as an excuse...Al Arabiya is biased against Hezbollah
