Big explosion with many killed in Beirut
#3
My husband said he got word this morning that they are thinking it was the Hezbollah organization.

Then I seen in an article. 
Quote:The port is said to be under the 'unofficial' control of Hezbollah

They are a Terrorist Organization. Why in the Holy Hell would anyone allow them to be incharge of a shipping port? Oh, Yea that is Lebanon isn't it?

Quote:A series of massive explosions rocked Beirut's port on Tuesday – a mushroom cloud rising above the widespread destruction that claimed the lives of at least 60 people and wounded hundreds more in the Lebanon capital.

While the cause of the blast has not yet been determined, preliminary assessments – according to intelligence officials in the region and the United States – as of Tuesday afternoon pointed to the disaster as accidental.
Even so, some have not ruled out more sinister origins pertaining to what was going on at the critical port, and what was being stored there.

Multiple sources said that much of the operations were under "unofficial" control of Hezbollah and indications have emerged that a fire broke out at an explosives depot inside the facility. Several sources also pointed to organized crime operations run out of the port, primarily controlled by Hezbollah, and that the explosion potentially involved "multiple containers" but was not terror-related.

"There is a possibility that fireworks, petrol and weapons were stored together," another intelligence source noted. "Officially, the blast happened at the fireworks and petrol warehouse."

You maybe thinking, who notified Mr. G.?
It wasn't on his cell phone, but he was asked to check out the area and other areas in that region, (no, not with googles maps REALLY ?)
They don't give current or up to date pictures.
Think KeyHole.
