This sounds a lot like the opening lines of Trump’s acceptance speech at the GOP Presidential Nomination. All you need do is replace “Lebanon” with “America”. The rest is fine. He’ll just wing-it with the rest of his speech, spouting his usual nonsense.
My mom and dad were both in Galveston when the Texas City Explosion occurred. It broke windows in the high school and one boy was so scared he jumped out a window. My uncle was working in Texas City that day and I can’t imagine how scared my aunt and mother were that day. I still can’t quite forgive the first grade teacher who took her class down to the port, one ship down I understand, and she and a good part of her class were killed. My uncle’s car was taken to be used as an imbalance and couldn’t even get home to reassure my aunt and mom he was ok. Cause? A shipment of ammonium nitrate in the hold, a Class 5 oxidizer for those who handle hazardous shipments or paperwork, was next to a hold which had a fire, and the firemen didn’t worry about the water getting into the adjoining holds until BOOM. This was one of the examples which highlights the need to observe the CFR149C (It’s been a while, I might have the wrong section)when it comes to separating hazardous shipments.
From what I heard on BBC tonight, Lebanese government officials are hard to find right now. Macron was hearing pleas from the crowd to regain responsibility for Lebanon so they’d finally get someone honest in charge.

That is, apparently, the truth. And it really is (very very slightly) better than terrorist or armed service attacks. Very slightly.

Same thing in America. Explosion will be on November 3rd.

Reminiscent of Texas City, 1947.

Pongo is very cross about this truthy proclamation from another failed state.

Massively corrupt and incompetent Trump the intelligence failure said it was, “An attack!”

The entire government has resigned – good luck, Lebanon.
