This is what makes no sense to me. Attack or no attack, why would a fireworks stockpile be anywhere in the vicinity of that much A.N.?

Looks like incoming...

May be Photoshopped... See the 8 second mark and a different angle at 28 sec.

It’s not like Lebanon is known for or its industrial safety. The amount of incredibly unsafe stuff that goes in countries like this is probably off the charts. It probably happened because someone needed to store their fireworks and didn’t give two shits about anything else and no one in charge gave a shite either.

Does not deserve the implications of the headline.

These misleading headlines are always to discredit Trump.

Nothing happens in a vacuum. Coupled with Israel's previous warning about stored weapons in Beirut and all the unexplained explosions in Iran and Iraq, I seriously doubt it was an accident.

So the deep state that may have been involved or one of their partners was says “nothing to see here”.

Color me shocked.

This is the video I saw. Not smart enough to know if it is shopped. LINK

The title says "confirmed fake"

Sounds legit.

I swear, if that human Cinnabon you all worship said “perhaps the tooth fairy caused the explosion,” you Trumpanzees would be firmly entrenched that the tooth fairy and perhaps the Easter bunny were real and a threat to America.

I took that to mean they are lying about how it happened and it really was a missile
