| Who Owned the Chemicals that Blew Up Beirut? No One Will Say |
| 2020-08-13 |
| [gCaptain] In the murky story of how a cache of highly explosive ammonium nitrate ended up on the Beirut waterfront, one thing is clear — no one has ever publicly come forward to claim it. There are many unanswered questions surrounding last week’s huge, deadly blast in the Lebanese capital, but ownership should be among the easiest to resolve. Clear identification of ownership, especially of a cargo as dangerous as that carried by the Moldovan-flagged Rhosus when it sailed into Beirut seven years ago, is fundamental to shipping, the key to insuring it and settling disputes that often arise. |

| #5 The UK state CONTINUOUSLY ignores the dealing of dodgy migrants. Boris has got to get on top of the funny money and corrupt migrants that former regimes have let in. He's got very few lives left already, especially after the dismal handling of COVID by allowing himself to be cajoled by the MSM. |

| #2 Beirut is a magnet for nefarious commerce. That ammonium nitrate has been sitting in a warehouse for years. |

| #1 You have three minutes to repeat that chain of ownership without looking. A lot of entities involved. Is maritime shipping always this complicated, or does this look like covering tracks? |
