Pagging Mossad.... please come to a white courtesy telephone....
CIA doing CIA things.
Fuck those guys.
With that crew, it could be anyone, including yet another splinter group of Islamic radicals. What some other Muslim-majority countries have realized and more will come to realize, even Iran, is that letting that genie out of the bottle is a poison to every attempt at a functioning society. As they say in Batman, some men just want to watch the world burn. Radical Islam attracts those men.
Look at the Beirut port explosion. Occam's Razor. FWIW.
Beirut was improperly stored fertilizer
So was Kansas City
*Oklahoma
Uh, typo.
I littlerally watched this shit last week lol
They seized a shipment of Amonia Nightate that was going to Africa but didn't have the money to go through the suez... and it sat in a Warehouse for a year and a half with people fighting over that to do with it. Some was stolen for weapons probably by hezbollah.... and then it went boom because it was improperly stored…
Or it was rocket fuel for the Iranian missile program. Geezus, the drone footage of the devastation is pretty unreal. Iranian's big port pretty much gone.

Video: Iran Port Blast Was Massive
You’ve probably already read about the the massive blast that hit Iran’s Shahid Rajaee port near Bandar Abbas.
The shipment was reportedly carrying sodium perchlorate, which is indeed pretty spicy stuff if handled improperly.
Now we have footage of the blast and, holy crap, was it massive and devastating:
At 36 seconds in, you get footage of the start of the fire. It doesn’t look like an explosive or a drone strike, just a fire that got out of control, so I doubt the U.S. or Israel was behind this one. Neither China nor Iran is known for their painstaking attention to detail.
On top of the rogering Iran’s missile program has already received from Israel, the explosion will make it that much more difficult for Iran to reconstitute their missile program anytime soon.
Wikipedia, the source of all vaguely accurate knowledge, tells us “Shahid Rajaee Port is responsible for 85% of the total loading and unloading carried out at the Iranian ports. By 2011, Shahid Rajaee port ranked 44th among the 3500 major ports of the world.” With Iran’s inflation rate already creeping toward 40%, damage to their main container port is going to weaken their economy further, giving President Trump additional leverage in talks over their nuclear program.
I read an article last night that said people hundreds of feet from the blast had their eyes pop out of their heads. Death toll is much higher than what's being reported. Hopefully this is the tipping point for that regime, especially since they are crippled economically.
Joe gave them billions to attack Israel and our own nation. Our lefties cheer!
