One video showed lots of firework type devices going off just prior to the BIG BLAST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The video showed a fire before the explosion. Made me think it was just an accident. Any one taking credit for it? Usually terrorist take credit for there attacks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youngcoach123 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Lebanon’s interior minister said initial information indicated highly explosive material, seized years ago, that had been stored at the port had blown up. Israel, which has fought several wars with Lebanon, denied any role and offered help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTman7 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Wow!! Devastating!! In 2003, a terrorist suicide truck-bomb attacked an Italian military compound in Nasiriyah, Iraq. I was stationed at Tallil Air Base at that time, and it's approximately 15 miles from Nasiriyah. When the bomb went off, we felt (pretty intensely) the shock wave of the BOOM. Hard to accurately describe that sensation and feeling. It was crazy, and something I'll never forget. This explosion in Beirut reminded me of that. Can't imagine that shock wave up close.

BlahBlah Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 This was like the explosion in the town of West ( North of Waco ) a few years ago. I don't know which one was bigger, but same material that exploded. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlahBlah Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Didn't know Tim McVeigh converted. West - They think it was an employee who died in the explosion who set the fire. However, that would be an easy escapegoat. Of course all evidence was destroyed in the blast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know which one was bigger, but same material that exploded. When West happened, I live about 35 miles away, and it shook my house and rattled my windows. I thought earthquake or actually highway crash at first. Where I live, I also heard when the space shuttle Columbia exploded. Kinda weird being in the epicenter of strange and terrible explosions, while in the middle of nowhere! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in 1983 it wasn't, I still remember that attack on our troops. I think this was an accident waiting to happen. They should have already detonated those fireworks. The worst place to keep them was at the port. My grandfather died in the Texas City Disaster and the ammonium nitrate on the SS Grandcamp was lit by only a cigarette. That was only 2300 tons.
