Best to inventory those who hate you at this time.

Easy to murder someone without any questions.

I am guessing there will be many unaccounted for that will never be found.

There are over 150 port workers who were present and are now unaccounted for right now.

Final death toll will be in the hundreds from this with so many collapsed structures and that large pressure wave. Going to be a lot of concussive injuries. 1st casualties are from the blast itself, 2nd casualties are from flying away/getting knocked over from the blast, 3rd casualties get hit from flying shrapnel, 4th causalities are the ones that get hit by the blast wave and don't know they are injured, they go home thinking they are fine and a few hours later figure it out and rush to the hospital. A few go to sleep feeling fine and don't wake up

With everything as you described it, I don't see how the death toll doesn't hit the thousands.

It's plausible the death toll could reach 90 million.

Hundreds of people were likely vaporized instantly. Anyone on the bridge or deck of that freighter, dead. Hundreds, if not thousands, won't have bodies to identify.

6M lbs of ammonium nitrate. Yeesh...

That freighter was lifted out of the water and tossed onto dry land. That's simply insane

The report I heard this morning was that the blast had the force of 3.5 magnitude earthquake.

And it was obviously more centralized than an earthquake too.

Israel offered aid and got yelled at online for it; talk about a damned-if-you-do-damned-if-you-don't scenario.

They should have social distanced and followed the science. The model showed a high percentage of death, when you mix fire and explosives.

If this is true then yesterday was a great day! Think of all the Jews who aren't going to die now that these explosives have all been detonated. I wouldn't be surprised if my people had something to do with the explosion. We're crafty like that.

It irritates me very strongly.

I’m not certain that I 100% get the implication.

But, I don’t get to vote for President. I live in Illinois.

An acquaintance of mine is a very well respected first generation Lebanese immigrant who still has business ties to the country. His cryptic comment in social media was that there are three plausible explanations and everyone will pick the one that is most convenient to them.

Like pretty much anything these days. There is no truth, there is just what makes you comfortable or angry.
