Hezbollah Hoarded Fertilizer That Blew Up Beirut, Planned to Use it Against Israel in 'Nuclear' Style Attack

Yesterday a massive explosion devastated Beirut, killing at least 100 and injuring thousands. Lebanese officials said the blast came from a 2750 ton stockpile of ammonium nitrate that was stored in the port.

Hezbollah, the Iran backed terrorist organization that has taken over Lebanon, has a history of stockpiling the chemical in different European locations.

Hezbollah kept three metric tons of ammonium nitrate, the explosive thought to be behind the mega blast in Beirut this week, in a storehouse in London, until MI5 and the London Metropolitan Police found it in 2015.
The Lebanese terrorist group also stored hundreds of kilograms of ammonium nitrate in southern Germany, which were uncovered earlier this year.
The Iran-backed terrorists kept the explosive in thousands of ice packs in four properties in northwest London, according to a report in The Telegraph last year. The ice pack deception tactic was used in Germany, as well.

Never negotiate with terrorists.

Hezbollah Will Not Escape Blame For Beirut
 

It certainly needs to be asked why such a gigantic quantity of highly unstable high-explosive material was left floating in the harbor for such a long period of time.

Incompetence kills!


We should keep that in mind!

If one is acquainted with conditions in Beirut (and Lebanon) over the past years, the need for pursuing conspiracy theories subsides.

The incompetence, corruption and downright skullduggery of a political class that has been treating the country and its people as its personal bounty gives quite sufficient explanation.

From Hezbollah Shiites via Sunni to Christians, put them all in a sack and then beat the hell out of it with baseball bats, and you'll always hit the most deserving.
