This number 500 seems out of whack to me for some reason. Odd that we haven't seen pictures of this all over the MSM like we always do.

I strongly suspect that the number is inflated. Even the initial 250 number they announced didn't pass the smell test.

There HAVE been pictures of this up all morning on all the cable networks. It looks like a huge square of the city was flattened. (They showed pics from a helicopter) They are also showing pics from the hospital, and reporting that the dead are “stacked” up on the sidewalks waiting for a mass burial. FOX called around to hospitals- and they said there are over 300 injured in the 3 hospitals they called- with over 50% listed in critical condition. Since these hospitals have little to no drugs etc.. a good number of those will also die. It looks like this 400 number of dead is probably correct and will only go higher.
