An immense explosion has been heard throughout the northern Iranian city of Qazvin, semi-official Fars news agency reported, and many casualties are expected from the blast.

Around 1.1 million people live in the city, which is located about 100 miles north of Tehran.

The blast may be related to nuclear development in Iran, according to the Los Angeles Times. Iranian officials in the past have strongly denied claims by Mujahedin Khalq Organization, or MKO, a cult-like Iranian exile group, that it has a secret nuclear enrichment facility in Abyek, near the major city, according to the daily.

The source of the blast remains undetermined. Several mystery explosions have been reported in the past several years in the region, none of which were ever verified.

A fire has now broken out in the city, local reports say, and as many as 50 people are injured. State media blames an oil depot for the blast.

Sorry for the dead. If it was a nuclear facility, regardless of the cause, the world might be a little bit safer.

That’s a shame - they were counting on him when Glenn Miller cancelled.

I’ve been saying for years we should drop a big nuke on one of their cities and then just deny deny. Tell the world “we warned you that nuclear stuff was unstable. Its really dangerous if you don’t know what you’re doing with it”.

Stupid smertfoan does not know the name “Don”.
Ron Paul had a bit of a hug and cuddle meet and greet with Don Black, founder of the hate site stormfront.

Even better, foan continues to correct Don as Don’t regardless of if I tell it to save it to dictionary. Interesting.

Immense explosion? That could mean something different to different people.

Sounds right now like an oil depot, but who knows.

I would not like to that a nuclear accident had taken place, I don’t care where it is.

Ah. I knew a Don Black, but he was a sweet man and has written several books, so beside the smertfoan, I can still say, “I LOVE you, Man!”

(Hope you’re wearing Brown...)

The whole Libertarian assumption is that everybody else will act right, even muslims.

Also most libertarians are atheists and do not want to see the obvious about the religious motivations to make Jihad against the non Muslims. Because they consider all religions a joke and equal in their idiocy. I have spoken w such libertarian atheists
