    @Mallyboppa Much confusion reigns about this subject. Some say fireworks, plus fertilizer. Just heard a Lebanese General say it was ammunition also... one way or another they sure fucked up and traumatized an already totally downtrodden people.

    Don't see where it looks anything like a nuke mushroom, more like the plume that lighting stricken dry spruce makes around here.

    “It is unacceptable that a shipment of ammonium nitrate estimated at 2,750 tons has been present for six years in a warehouse without taking preventive measures that endanger the safety of citizens,” Lebanese Prime Minister Hassan Diab said.

    Unacceptable? How about mind-boggling, outrageous, record-breaking stupidity. Especially considering it was stored in a populated area.

    In the Oklahoma City bombing, Timothy McVeigh used about 3 tons of ammonium nitrate. Compare that to 2,750 tons.
