So, I'm sure by now at least some of you have heard about what happened in Lebanon today. For those of you who haven't:
>Big ass explosion goes off in a warehouse
>Deals large amount of damage to surroundings and blows out windows up to 15 miles away
>people get recordings
I've seen multiple "official" stories so far, mainly having to do with the nature of what's being stored in the warehouse. It's either fireworks, ammonium nitrate, or something the lebanese government confiscated a while ago going up in flames, and I'm not sure.

>ammonium nitrate source
some faggot in a discord server, take this with a heavier pinch of salt than the others unless you have better proof, in which case post it!
One last interesting thing to do with image 4 is the site of the explosion. I've seen others say that this is supposed to be a grain warehouse, but I have no idea myself as I don't know where to look to find that out. If some of you have proof either towards that theory or against it, post it as well.

found a better source for the ammonium nitrate story, that one now seems most plausible.

Video footage Inside a store Beirut.
Anfo produces lots of gas, which makes it good for demolitions.
Notice the lack of flash or any other major fireball that you would normally see with any normal military explosive.
It also didn't produce a flash like the mini-nukes that were used 8-10 years ago in the sandbox.
I believe the ammonia nitrate story, but I don't believe what set it off.
Anfo is also relatively stable, and for that size blast, there would have been a significant quantity of fuel mixed with that ammonia nitrate.
xkeyscore is going to have a field day with this post.

The video showing the shockwave slamming into buildings from a vantage point was horrifying. What likely happened is that a storage of ammonium nitrate and other highly combustible and explosive materials was accidentally exposed to a heat source (I doubt a flame but rather a smoldering cigarette butt or a container of something flammable was exposed to the sun).
Furthermore, if there was a leak of ammonium nitrate there should have been a weak foul smell. The area where I work had a leak a few months ago and the entire industrial zone had a faint bad smell.

Too small for a tactical nuke and there's no word of even a little bit of radiation at the site. It only leveled two city blocks, there are conventional explosives that can do that and more easily.

I know we are all prone towards conspiracies, but tbh I do think this is the most believable story. Maybe its twelfth dimensional chess that I just don't know about, but I can't imagine how this benefits anybody. Kinda doubt intentional terrorism just because nobody has claimed it, and I have no doubt whatsoever that lebannon is incapable of safely storing a shitload of nearly decade old ammonium nitrate.

Given a steady flow of hostile actions against the people, allow me to correct you. I would say:
"I know we are all target of conspiracies"

looks fake. If it's real that missile is as long as a building is tall, and you'd think Lebanese officials would be talking about an attack as much as possible unless they did it to their own port, which is the only reason they have any international business at all.

I'm gonna go with fake, no such projectile is visible in unedited footage from any range or angle, and there's plenty that caught the blast live. Speaking of missiles though, there's a theory going around that the warehouse might have been illegally storing missiles for use against Israel, and that the fire must have set these off, up in the air as to whether the fire was set intentionally or not. It would make sense if it was intentional, given how quickly Israel was in denying responsibility for it, despite literally no one having even accused them at that point.

With Israel's behavior regarding Lebanon prior to the explosion, people were inevitably going to start pointing fingers at Israel. That being said, Israel being responsible for the explosion seems to me to be more likely than negligence or incompetence.

Not this shit again. You conspis are mad with your mini nukes and poison every debate or reflexion with your bullshit.
It could not have been a tactical nuke. If it were you would have a flash blinding everyone, skin burned, and no cell phone would be useable on a 20Km radius even for the smallest nuke (the davy crockett, made in the 50's; and vastly a bad idea) that was designed for that purpose more than destructive potential.

>Beirut Explosion Damage Captured by Drone
>Two weeks after the devastating explosion in Beirut’s port, the extent of the damage was captured with drone footage. The Aug. 4 blast broke windows, leveled buildings and spread debris across Lebanon’s capital city. Criticisms of the official response to the explosion in the Middle East city caused Lebanon’s government to resign, and protests have become a common sight in Beirut. But the most common sight of all may be the damage to the city, which is inescapable.
