I'm wrong. Blow it up full screen and zoom in and watch frame by frame. Ignore the bird that is there.
There IS a metal object going into it.
Now, who did it?

REPORTER: Are you confident the Beirut explosion was an attack?
TRUMP: "I've met with some of our great generals & they seem to feel that it was. They seem to think it was a bomb of some kind, yes."

Look at the second bogey (there is one, then another, then two together) I stopped the second one at 28 seconds in and the tail and nose are silvery reflective white while the body and wings are black. Real flying squawking birds don't have reflective feathers.

Just saw this on the national evening news, not good if true.
Article at The War Zone, nothing that hasn't been covered here.

I have no doubt it was a missile storage for Hezbollah

I was looking at twitter earlier and someone videotaped what looked to be two buses filled with tourists who stopped near the explosion site and they got out and were taking video. I'm guessing they're all deceased as well.

yep people who keep saying that it needs something big to kick it off just don't quite understand chemistry, this stuff isn't inert!
Adding oil or aluminum to the mix gives it different properties.

yep, that definitely looks like a missle.

it's hard telling what was added to the mix, and we may never know. I wouldn't put it past Hezzbalah blowing it up themselves with the intent of blaming Israel.

I am guessing that if they did do this, they had no idea how much bang (munitions)was in there. I can’t see them intentionally taking out all of Beirut, which essentially they did.
All I see is a power line in the foreground?

Just above the power line and is only in about 2 frames. Right in the middle of the circle,

it was a bad day for those birds caught up in that fireball and then shock wave.

If you slow it to frame by frame you can see the missile coming up out of that neighborhood and going directly into the smoke and then boom.

Ok, I'm getting lost here. Which video are we referring to? The one I've been looking at repeatedly, it is power lines that I see. No sign of any missiles.

Post #338, click on the twatter link and go there and enlarge the video and then set it so it's frame by frame, you'll see the missile.

Ammonium nitrate with oil (anfo) burns at ~1000fps. The view from the boat that got hit by the blast wave looked to be about 1.5-2 miles. The blast wave hits in about .5 seconds. I make it to be ~ 15,000fps+/-. That was a high order explosive, even if ammonia nitrate was also involved.

I see it now and the timing of it fits in perfect with the second explosion. I really had to study it, but I finally saw it.

I saw two things doing that -- one appears to be tan and it's VERY fast. Right behind it is kind of a black dot that could be a bird. I don't know. The tan thing is da bomb.
