Who owned the chemicals that blew up Beirut? No one will say

“Goods were being transported from one country to another, and they ended up in a third country with nobody owning the goods. Why did they end up here?” said Ghassan Hasbani, a former Lebanese deputy prime minister and opposition figure.

Those linked to the shipment and interviewed by Reuters all denied knowledge of the cargo’s original owner or declined to answer the question. Those who said they didn’t know included the ship’s captain, the Georgian fertilizer maker who produced the cargo and the African firm that ordered it but said it never paid for it.

When I see raw evil, one name comes to mind. Soros.

Would not surprise me one bit, but I think it was the Quataris.

I owned it. But I’m not telling anyone.

I’m surprised they are not blaming Israel.
Maybe that bomb was past even Israel’s capabilities.

Seems to work for other criminals, terrorists, arsonists, looters & shooters these days! I’d go with THAT defense.

Like the AN really, really cares who owns it when it blows up.

The port officials were warned many, many times over the years. The behavior of AN is very well known. ESPECIALLY when it is hot. Especially when it has on/off moisture, especially when it has contaminants. Like fert grade is always going to have.

They’re “lucky” they got away with it for 6 years. It should have blown in 6 months.

The logistics of the A-n is tied to the Rhosus, owned by Igor Rechushkin (?) —

However, there was info (hard to find all of a sudden), more than one shipment was made.

The largely Iranian/Hezbollah influence within the Lebanese government may well have been involved in both shipment, and also detaining and storage.

From my brief eod and bda days, there is no question (in what’s left of my mind), the dozens of white flashes between the large fire/blasts, were warhead detonators. It all points to “probable” missile/bomb assembly/manufacturing.

The detonator flashing alone is strong “tell/evidence” here.

Alleged…
Hezbollah was taking Beirut ammonium nitrate to produce weapons: Source

Send "Orange Man Bad" federal and state government desperate Democrats and RINOs home in November!

Supporting PDJT with a new patriot Congress and state government leaders that will promise to fully support his already excellent work for MAGA and stopping SARS-CoV-2 will effectively give fast-working Trump a "third term" in office imo.

Stuff happens. I worked for a company that had been involved in nuclear tests since the 60’s. They had stuff in storage that was OK then but “film at 11:00” when I joined. Not having any good options, I put in my time and moved along.

Some people bought, shipped, and stored something.

What difference does it make? /sarc
