Look at the bright side. According to Obama we will have fewer terrorists now. There have to be hundreds if not thousands of shovel ready jobs to clean up the mess.

The color reminds me of Nitric acid fuming.

I hear that Beirut used to be a safe playground for European vacationers.


Beirut was objectively a beautiful city, worthy of the title, "Paris of the Middle East" and thrived even after independence from France until the PLO began wrecking everything 45 years ago.

Some of those cultural traditions do survive, in many cases literally "underground", but such a cultural loss.

Yet another example of how multiculturalism is almost always doomed to fail.

Many are saying fireworks warehouse?

Look at this video.
Fireworks going off before the explosion?
Twitter

Perhaps that locale was the target?

Seems more an example of the scourge of radical islam. As you say, place was thriving when it was "multiculturally" just French and Lebanese.

I'm not a chemist, but I have experience with explosives.

A large portion of the color of an explosion like that is based on the color of the most frangible material around the site of the explosion. Although it is possible that part of this red coloring is characteristic of a specific set of precursor/explosive content or that explosion mixing chemically with the environment, most likely is that the explosion occurred in an area with reddish orange soil.

You must have been retired early. But you do have a sense of humor. I see nitrogen Compounds all over that explosion.
