No, it doesn't. The issue is that the rate of expansion of that shockwave front, even at a very large diameter, shows tremendous efficiency. It's not a comparatively strong explosion, on the whole scale including nukes, but the efficiency displayed by that second explosion spells BOMB.

You can find videos of the West Texas fertilizer plant explosion and other AN explosions that all look very similar.

I'm not saying I know any more than you do, but everything points to an accident. There was obviously a massive fire there that people were filming to start with, so saying it could've been triggered by a rocket or some kind of "interference" just doesn't make sense to me. Everyone's just shocked and in disbelief so people are grasping to find something to blame that's commesurate to the level of emotional shock. It's the same kind of speculation that happened after 9-11.

(By the way, have a look for Tech Ingredients on YouTube. He has a great video from a month ago about the characteristics of different explosives.)

All recent nuke usage was disguised by pre-existing fires and other explosions. I'm not saying it's a nuke 100%, because who the fuck knows all the world's explosive technologies? NOBODY. Only the perpetrators of this know what kind of bomb was used. Accident? I say bomb, 99.99999%. Disguised as an accident.

yep, military action disguised as accident I agree with 100%. Like China and all the small nukes seen in the ME over the last few years
