BEIRUT (AP) — A warehouse where fuel was illegally stored exploded in northern Lebanon early Sunday, killing 20 people and burning dozens more in the latest tragedy to hit the Mediterranean country in the throes of a devastating economic and political crisis.
For peace of mind, resign as general manager of the universe
I know it's been three years, but I recently came across a montage of other 'new' videos of the blast. It's crazy. In some of them you can SEE the people being tossed around like rag dolls from the shockwave.
Damn. For a moment it looked like a small atomic bomb going off.

And some people think that using a "tactical" nuke is an option?!?!
Yes on the right scumbags. Iran will use them in a second on Israel, as would the leftists in our own country if they had them.Originally Posted by imanaknut

Modern tactical Nukes are considered 20-50 Kilotons (so they're supposedly SMALL). But Hiroshima was flattened and killed about a quarter of a million people (220 Thousand) and it was ONLY 15 Kilotons. Frankly I was surprised that we don't just have 1 kiloton mini nukes, but to drop nukes that are FOUR TIMES more powerful than the Hiroshima bomb, well that would wipe out entire cities and then some.
I can't see something like that not only being devastating beyond the scope of just one city, but it would probably spark a really HOT WW3..
