  • The size of the explosion that ripped through the port in the Lebanese capital Beirut has shocked the world.
    Some 300,000 people have been left homeless, at least 130 were killed and thousands have been injured.
    But what do we know about where and how it happened?

      @paulkurilecz4209 Před rokem +108

      It was a little over 2 kilotons of NH4NO3. Which would be slightly less than 1 kiloton of TNT. This is roughly equivalent to the smallest nuclear weapon that has been in the US nuclear arsenal which is the W54 tactical nuclear weapon which in various forms has a yield from 0.005 to 1.0 kiloton. So yes this was a nuclear level explosion.

    That is absolutely horrific. I saw a man take a video from so far away and I knew the impact would hit him a couple seconds after the explosion which was so strong it rocked his building and blew the windows. I can’t imagine how bad it must have been for those in the impact zone. I saw a viral video of two brides. Absolutely terrifying.

      The explosion damaged hundreds/thousands of buildings and utterly ruined the port.
      ie it not only wrecked the city itself, but also the primary means of delivering supplies to fix it.
      Sea ports bring in far more imports than any other trade route.

When it mutates it will come back again. It can mutate at any time in any one of the countries it is in and travel around the world again like it did the first time. They know that we are stuck with this forever. It's going to be like the flu, a new version will come every year. Sorry, to be depressing but that's just how it is.

      On the cross the heavenly father poured out his wrath and justice on our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ ...
      He died for our injustices to give us eternal life, the punishment we deserved was on him, so ...
      Only two conditions for eternal life
      1. Recognize sins through repentance and turn away from them! Abandon your present sins
      2. Believe in Jesus Christ the son of God and in his sacrifice of Justice, the Wrath of God and The justice of God was poured out on his Son by all sinners, by all our injustices ...
      The punishment that we deserved, we carried our savior, he offers us eternal life, not temporary!
      Lord Jesus died to give us life, in him is life and salvation ...
      ◄ Acts 4:12 ►
      And in no other is there salvation, for there is no other name under heaven given among men, by which we can be saved.
      John 10:28 ►
      and I give them eternal life and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand.
