IT'S A MUSHROOM CLOUD JUST LIKE WE HAVE SEEN IN THE OLD NEWSREELS
HOW COULD IT NOT BE AN ATOMIC BOMB?
" Lebanon’s prime minister, Hassan Diab, said the cause of the explosion was 2,700 tonnes of ammonium nitrate, a common industrial chemical used in fertiliser and as a component in mining explosives. Diab declared a national day of mourning for the victims of the explosion. The warehouse that authorities claim was the site of the blast had been the subject of warnings going back to 2014, he said. He would “reveal facts” about the warehouse soon, he said, but did not want to pre-empt an investigation."

I thought this was some kind of 'attack' ?

I heard about it. I want to know who's responsible.

Lebanon is a lot like Argentina....formerly wealthy advanced societies that are now shit hole countries.
This explosive material had been sitting there since 2013 apparently.
That's what not even trying looks like.

This illegal illegitimate regime that runs America is at fault...not me.... they do not represent me and I have long objected to their crimes against humanity.
I first heard in depth about the tragedy of Lebanon I think it was summer 1978 when I was working at the Manor Restaurant at CherryVale Mall. We for a few months had a guy working as a busboy, maybe 19/20. His family had owned a large furniture store in Lebanon that had made a lot of money...he grew up in money. THey escaped with almost nothing he said, and were then just trying to get by.
Turns out that the GadFather escaped in 1975.

Didn't they claim it was a fireworks factory?

None of the above look anything near what blew up in Lebanon.
Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.
You're such an idiot Jack, I looked to see if there were any other threads on the subject! Never thought that a fool would post a current event in the Off Topic sub-forum!

Ammonium nitrate itself is a stable compound. If it weren't, it wouldn't be used as fertilizer. It needs both fuel and a detonator to explode.
In rare cases, it can ignite on it's own, (kinda like the heat/fire formed in a bail of hay) and it produces a flame rather than an instantaneous explosion.

That port has been upgraded to a container port. That being said there is still handles huge amounts of bulk cargo. There are diesel and bunker fuel tanks, grain silos, etc. All within close proximity of where the Ammonium nitrate was stored. Believe it or not that was kind a fun port to visit. Now all traffic is directed to Tripoli.
I find it interesting how so many people in the American conversation assume and want to assume that this was not a terrorist act.
I am aware of no evidence for that......in this part of the world a blast like this must be assumed to be terrorism until we can prove that it is not.
