More than 200 nuclear and biochemical experts from the Chinese military have been sent to the port city of Tianjin after two huge explosions killed at least 50 people.
A team from the International Atomic Energy Agency's Beijing environmental emergency response centre has also gone to the area.

Tiniest Tianjin Nuke Ever!
Well, if you want some more speculation on this, it can be found on Jim Sinclair’s website:
Did The FINAL WAR Just Start?

Dear CIGAs,
The question of our title is very important, Did the FINAL WAR just start?. If you polled Americans on this question, 99.9% would answer no if you took out the Middle East. Last week I wrote The Rumblings of War regarding the IMF rebuffing Chinas entry into the SDR. This was followed up by The shot heard round the world on Tuesday commenting on Chinas surprise devaluation. The purpose of this writing is to show you YES, we are in fact at war! Rather than tell you we are at war, I feel it is better to point out a few dots, connect some of them and then ask a few questions which might help you understand the war that is in fact being waged. If you can answer some of the questions then connecting dots and forming your own conclusions will be easier.
As our backdrop, we are told the world is in recovery from the very bad experience of 2008. Since then, various central banks have monetized debt on a massive scale, led by the Federal Reserve of the U.S.. Undoubtedly, the greatest export from the U.S. has been dollars themselves and financial products known as derivatives. For the most part, the world spun merrily until last fall when Saudi Arabia decided to increase production and lower prices. This was presumably done at the request of the U.S. and meant as a tool to injure Russias energy sector, economy and financial system. Can the petrodollar which became accustomed to $100 oil be supported with sub $50 oil? There are two sides to this coin, yes the consumer of oil saves but doesnt lower oil price mean less liquidity in the system? Doesnt it mean lower velocity and less demand for dollars?
Moving along, did anyone really wonder why or what (or better yet, WHO) was behind China being put off for acceptance as a component of the SDR? Then just two trading days later, China devalued their currency in a surprise move followed by two more devaluations! Remember, the U.S. has been prodding China to strengthen their currency and has gone so far as to call them a currency manipulator! Now we see China doing the exact opposite of U.S. requests (demands?). World markets have been shaken, and at a time when liquidity is quite tight.

Saw the video, looks like an initial massive fire, followed by two giant explosions.
There’s a lot of “missing” Russian suitcase nukes. I have no idea what force they have.
Interesting.
Yikes!......Lower oil prices lower the GDP!
The BBC’s headline for a similar stort...did not include the word Nuclear.....oddly enough.
Oil Wei Tu Lo
Wost of the world is busy posting kitteh pictures to each other on their Iphones while weaving down the road.
Fires don’t set off nukes.
Still, IAEA may just be using the “Crisis” to get a look around.
Out of those two, I don’t know who to trust.
It does not seem to have been nuclear. No one viewing the flash suffered retina searing, no apparent zones have been established for evacuation, no citizens gave been advised to shelter in place to avoid fallout.
The presence of CBR teams may be related to chemical contamination a though nice the University at least had a nuclear research lab and there are hospitals nearby, radioactive materials in shipment that blew with everything else could have made the explosion a “ dirty” blast
There are plenty of recovery people and military in the zone with masks but not full gear
Watching the cleanup and civilian treatment the next few days may give clues about what is under tight censorship now
You know your stuff, thanks!
I completely forgot about the emp effect. Thanks.
Agreed.
