Beirut blew up because a Russian "businessman" ran out of money

Interesting to read this explanation of how Beirut came to be holding onto a ridiculously dangerous cargo due to a failure of a Russian "businessman".

 A bit more about him in The Independent:
The figure of Igor Grechushkin features prominently in the first two links of that hapless chain. A rough-and-tumble businessman from Khabarovsk in the far east of Russia, Grechushkin was on Thursday confirmed as the Rhosus’s owner by Russian state media.

Its a lot of nonsense. There was no fertiliser. Which factory was that fertiliser made in? And if he's a Russian businessman are we really talking about a (((Russian))) Kosher Nostra loyal servant of Israel? In which case the left hand is making an alibi up for the right hand.

I've left your anti-Semitic conspiracy fantasy through, Graeme, so I can say "and what exactly would Israel benefit from such an attack, and what exactly would Beirut and other Middle East countries gain from participating in a global cover up as to the 'real' cause of the explosion"?

Thats the sort of vampires we are dealing with. They object to retaliation against their terrorism. Instead of saying to themselves .... "Hey what if we didn't conduct acts of terrorism? Perhaps we wouldn't get the retaliation." But these people are cut from different cloth. So they choose instead to get at Hezbollah by destroying the infrastructure of the nation entire. Both Prime Ministers have been threatening the infrastructure of Lebanon. That was the goal. They have also been making ominous threat towards the main airport. So they knocked over the main wharf and their threats towards the main airport are still out there.

As to co-operation through-out the region.... Its the same as your co-operation, Australia's co-operation and everyone else. No-one is allowed to accuse them of anything that they haven't repeatedly confessed to already. Thats the spell that they have over us. So you are collaborating with them and so is everyone else.

You have photos of the nuclear attack. You have the photos of the missiles. You know they were bombing Syria and the Palestinians the day before. There is one obvious suspect out there and we KNOW FOR A FACT THEY DID IT. Because they were caught doing it. And they have done it many times before.

But you still won't accuse them of doing it. They've been caught redhanded but you won't accuse them. Thats the same as everyone else also. That is what they have done to everyone else.

Look you linked an article from a rag that (((Turnbull))) helped set up. You find that there is no chain of custody for the faux-information they are claiming. And no clear outright claims. You linked it. Read it. Note the phrasing. Then you follow their link.

Its the same style, by a supposed Siberian newspaper. Unbelievable but that is their source. Then that newspaper has the same wording of non-claims about faux-facts .... and its about someone who they reckon resides in Cyprus. But no indication of how they came across such make-believe. You think an alleged Siberian Newspaper has people on the ground in Cypress? Is that what you are telling me?

You linked the article yourself. Pure hot air. No evidence of fertiliser. No analysis of the smoke which proves there was no fertiliser. No factory to show who could produce the fertiliser. Just all linky linky. When Hunter S Thompson used to spread a false rumour he would own up to it. It was part of his comedy. Now its standard practice.

Pretty disgraceful for you to be spreading fake news. And its the same deal: You did it; So blame Russia.

Look at this nonsense. All obscure miserable little countries and none of which makes ammonium nitrate. So to check this Shiite you'd need to speak half a dozen languages. And even the article has been alleged to have been translated from French.

So here we have a story that involves Moldova, Georgia, Mozambique .... Just monkey's typing around the clock roping in nations that are too obscure and opaque so as never to be able to check the story. So what's the factory that makes the ammonium nitrate in this fantasy? That is the dog ate my homework story right there.

How would you ever put together a deal of this nature and why would a big load of gear, meant to go to Mozambique, wind up in Lebanon in the first place? It wouldn't. Its not even a credible story. You would source the fertiliser where you could transport it easily and directly. This is not news. Its just a lot of terrorists typing.
