    Default Beirut Explosion

    Who's directly responsible for it, either intentionally or just negligent? You decide.

    "Investigators probing the devastating blast in Beirut that killed at least 135 people and injured 5,000 more are pointing to a Russian ship docked in the city's port for nearly seven years without appropriate security precautions that officials warned was “a floating bomb.”"

    "A floating bomb"?

    All the reports I saw said that the fertilizer had been offloaded, that it was in bags.
    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.

    "The Russian vessel, named MV Rhosus, carrying agricultural fertilizer with 2,750 metric tons of ammonium nitrate and en route to Mozambique hit a financial snag and docked in the Beruit port in 2013, according to legal documents and Lebanese officials, the Washington Post reported."

    We'll wait until investigation is over.

    The judge eventually agreed to allow the crew to disembark and in 2014 the port authorities transferred the ammonium nitrate into "Warehouse 12", next to the grain silos. The lawyers said the cargo was "awaiting auctioning and/or proper disposal".

    Thank you. So it was a floating bomb after all.

    The question is: who is responsible for it? They knew it was dangerous.

    No, the question is are you sure that you remembered to take your meds?

    It's been there for six years and stored in a warehouse.

    That's the national guard deterring sneak attacks by your neoZionist fascists, Comrade maggot.

    Has there been a diagnosis?
