LONG THREAD

1)
 The explosion in #Beirut was a deliberate & controlled blast targeting missiles/missile fuel belonging to #Iran & Hezbollah.

This thread is a compilation mostly of @COsweda’s work & some of my input.

Read to the end & judge for yourself.
2)
 Criticism against #Iran-backed Hezbollah following the #Beirut explosion

"The primary suspect is Hezbollah, more than anyone else in the world, because Hezbollah uses ports & all other Lebanese government facilities in order to acquire weapons."
3)
 He specifically used the term “acquire weapons.”

The Beirut blast was at an arms depot. Missiles from Iran.

First, the warheads were destroyed. Listen to them going off.
