The anti-Israel conspiracy theorists or anti-Semitic posters can now rest easy because they were wrong.

NY Post



"The image shows the smoke eaters in the Lebanese capital’s port trying to pry open the door to warehouse 12 that was packed full of 2,750 tons of ammonium nitrate.

DailyMail.com says it verified the image was taken just before Tuesday’s terrifying blast that killed 137 — including at least one American — and left up to 300,000 homeless as it razed huge parts of the city.

The photographer is among the confirmed dead, the report said, with the photo later found on his recovered phone."

Must of been a hell of a phone if it survived the blast being that close to the warehouse...

I'm not sure I know the conspiracy theory regarding Israel, but how would a pic of 3 Lebanese fire fighters trying to get into the warehouse absolve Israel from possible involvement?

Some people run away. Some people stand and watch. Very few run in. Heroes no doubt.

They all have a wide stance because their balls are so big.

If they had any idea what was in the warehouse, other than bottle rockets and Black Cats, I believe they would have honorably run away.

The fact that super sacks of ammonium nitrate in crystalline form is present in the warehouse is irrelevant to the explosion

Ammonium nitrate is not explosive by itself

A fire starts. How? We don’t know. Firefighters rushing to scene seems like a normal dispatch. Still doesn’t explain if fire was set intentionally or occurred naturally.

Don’t get the people saying this is Israel. The mossad might off a few dozen threats a year And keep it quiet, but they tend not to do stuff this big if they aren’t willing to put their name on it

Did divers find it or was it thrown 30 blocks away?

Also mighty quick to be getting pictures from and released from a phone so close to the blast...

Not saying it wasn't what it is portrayed to be but that picture creates more questions than it provides answers...
