Note the nuclear explosion in NK in the mountain that collapsed the mountain was 4.5
The Beirut explosion was a 3.3 to 4.5 on the earthquake scale.
1-3 megaton in my guess
Size of 1997 Event The Washington Post for August 29 gives the seismic magnitude of the event as 3.8. Quoting Pentagon officials, the Washington Times on the 28th states "initial data on the event produced 'high confidence' that the activity detected was a nuclear test equivalent to between 100 tons and 1,000 tons of TNT. The relatively small size would be consistent with tests used to determine the reliability of a nuclear weapon . . .such as a scaled-down test of a warhead primer." The Reviewed Event Bulletin of the IDC gives a seismic magnitude, mb, of 3.9, obtained by averaging readings from two stations. Magnitude is proportional to the log of the amplitude of seismic waves.
This was even different froma a MOAB - no white corona shock wave in mOAB
This was not a traditional TNT or missile explosion.
The Beirut explosion IMO was a suitcase Nuke.
Lebanon now admitting "toxic Chemicals released.
Next will be the Radiation admit.
Israel would not nuke Lebanon they would nuke Iran.
it isn't isreal - Not sure who because it makes no sense to Nuke Lebanon by anyone.
You are right but I still would not know who would benefit
NO
Two parts Beirut blast
Part two Ammonium Nitrate blast
Confirmed it was a small NUKE
it was a small NUKE
