MASSIVE explosion in Beirut levels entire city blocks

The red smoke may be from potassium perchlorate.

You get that same color with tannerite.

Yup and tannerite is some nasty shit especially if you mix it with other nasty shit.

Damn, will white Christians and Israel be blamed?

 

[WelfareQueen]

Hamas or Hezbollah. Any one who believes simple fireworks is fooling themself.

The Interior Minister of Lebanon is stating they stored highly explosive materials that they confiscated years ago there. Watching bbc. Some of the video that has come out of there. Wow.
Praying for the people there.

You left out Syria.

Also, those could be munitions popping off beforehand.

No, those are fireworks.

Fun as hell to shoot!!!!
The most we've done is 15 lbs and it packed a huge wallop!!!
We shot it from across a small lake from about 100 yards and you could see the shockwave as it came across the water.

I've never shot it but I know folks who have. What an explosion you get out of it especially if you mix it with other nasty shit.

Blame Israel and start the Holy War they want

Blame?
Blame Israel for what?
Seems you had a comprehension lapse there pal.

I guess you aren't aware.....
Iran and Russia have been steadily supplying arms to entities in the ME.
Entities that aren't so Israel friendly.

I have no doubt the CIA and Israeli Mossad are responsible for the explosion. ...

This smells like Hezbollah

Its stinks like Israel.

Israel is storing rocket fuel in Beirut?

It was stunning even for a city that has been shaken by civil war, suicide bombings and bombardment by Israel.

First thing that came to my mind seeing it is the 1947 Texas City Explosion when a ship full of Ammonium Nitrate went up.
It shattered windows ten miles away in Galveston.
