33% of Lebanon is Christian. Judge Jeanine Pirro is of Lebanese Christian descent, born in NY. Lots of Christians in Lebanon.

Yeah, it actually was. Even that orange color of the vapors matches that.

Hezbollah routinely hides munitions among populated areas so that Israel will kill civilians if they strike. This is a fact.
There was a fire and they claim it was burning fireworks although it is quite possible they were the rockets Iran gives them to attack Israel with. Hezbollah would not want to get rid of an oxidizer they could use to make car bombs and other large bombs with either - they are single-minded about destroying Israel.
A recipe for disaster...... if Antifa ran the US we would see the same kind of stuff - then again, we had a city in Texas that gave zoning permission for a nursing home to go across the street from a fertilizer plant so we are not immune from bad decisions either.

LOL! Rhetorical Question: Who stores 2,700 tons of any explosive in a downtown port? There is a large bulk Storage elevator that seems to be the epicenter of the explosion. People store stuff like that waiting for the price to go up. Sometimes it never does.
The "fireworks fire" at the base of the Elevator was pretty convenient, though.

“The “fireworks fire” at the base of the Elevator was pretty convenient, though.”
That is similar to what the description of the fire on the Grandcamp prior to it detonating.

Should have stored it in the Bekka Valley instead.
