A huge explosion has occurred in Beirut - click for video

[Zathras]

My sources in Beirut gave me the update.
Israel blew up a shipment of missiles which were headed to Hezbola

Looks like the grain elevator is damaged but intact.

I can’t find a crater in that shot. I wonder if it was a ship in port.

[Zathras]

From my sources in Lebanon.
It was a shipment of rockets headed to Hezbola

[mad_as_he$$]

Excellent news if true!

[digger48]

That part does seem odd

We’ve seen fireworks factories blow before but never saw a mushroom cloud like that

At least they didn't go to waste. Just sad that innocent people were victims. What was the country of origin?

As soon as the first explosions started, I would not even have gone anywhere near a window, in fact, I'd have a piece of plywood in the bathroom at all times and pull it over myself when I hid in the bathtub. :^)

Really? I think Israel would want to avoid civilian casualties if possible. And there will be many...

perhaps some kind FRer could explain the red-dirt-cloud
that appears after the vapor-cloud dissipates,thanks

You're doing it wrong with the tub.
You need to get an indiana jones nuclear blast surviving refrigerator

Wow, that is completely different from other shots out there.

My first thought was “Rod From God”

[AppyPappy]

I love the different reactions
Beirut: Oh my God (screaming with fear)
Illinois: Woooooo!!!!!

[bravo whiskey]

I imagine Halifax and Texas City looked like this when ammonium nitrate cargo exploded.

And that’s pretty much what that Obama bimbo would say, too
