It’s the Texas City explosion from 1947 all over again.

“It’s also common for me to read a story about someone’s free speech rights being obviously violated, and then I realize it happened in Canada or the UK, where they don’t honor the US constitution”

You’re joking right? You haven’t heard of all the Americans getting fired, blacklisted and otherwise ruined for saying the “wrong” word, or wearing the wrong hat or t-shirt?

I’m not talking about that stuff. I’m talking about the more serious stuff, like what happened to Jordan Peterson.

I don’t believe the constitution protects you from being treated badly by other people. In fact, I think it protects their right to do so. The constitution DOES protect you from the GOVERNMENT doing it though.

And the government has guns and can use them to force you to comply.

I am thinking it was M80’s.
That crater is the result of one way to create a bigger port.

An old boss of mine worked on a project that proposed to construct a harbor using a nuclear blast. Never did happen.

Link to the video...

https://www.bellingcat.com/news/mena/2020/08/04/what-just-blew-up-in-beirut/

It’s the second video from the top - “Explosion at Beirut Docks”

I can’t find a different video that is shot from the same perspective and distance but gives a much longer take on the final explosion, the symmetry, and the shock wave.

The mushroom cloud of seawater and debris is astounding.

I’m thinking that our corporate masters and the Deep State may have decided that proles should not be allowed to speculate about the nature of a mushroom cloud in the Middle East.

Re: Your tinfoil is on too tight

I do not personally believe it was a tactical nuke.

I am, however, still very curious how a 1.5 acre warehouse with windows and significant air space could detonate instantaneously and create a completely symmetrical mushroom cloud of seawater and debris.
