  1. Well yes! Where have you been? Haven’t you heard about the critical shortage of IED techs in Canada?

  2. The large mushroom cloud explosion means the Houthis held their cabinet meeting above or next to an arms magazine. Not recommended.

    1. That explosion looked like gasoline or some kind of fuel. Tall roiling flames means combustion. Pure explosives is a flash and dark grey smoke. Got to admit if you had soft targets to hit, thiswould be the way to go. Almost reminds me of Napalm.

    2. If you look closely at the video, you will see several objects shooting upward ahead of the fireball, trailing vapor or mist behind them, and the vapor trails are soon consumed by the rising fireball. In other words, somebody was storing rather a lot of compressed flammable gas in large containers at that location and the initiating explosion ruptured those containers which then shot off like rockets.

      This is a BLEVE, a boiling liquid expanding vapor explosion, though not a typical example. In the common scenario, a storage container of flammable material is involved in a fire, which heats the contents to above its boiling point, while the structural integrity of the container is compromised by overheating. The container ruptures because of internal pressure, and the material inside flash-vaporizes, catches fire, and becomes an outward expanding fireball.

      In this case, it would appear that multiple pressure vessels containing a compressed flammable liquid (propane or butane for example) were hit by an explosion and ruptured all at once. The material inside those vessels was well above its normal boiling point and flash-vaporized when the containers failed. The explosion also initiated the fire, so you suddenly had a huge expanding fireball.

      BLEVE’s are one of the scariest hazards of fires involving flammable liquids, and have killed a lot of people who did not understand the danger. Do a search for BLEVE videos, and you will see some spectacular fireballs.

  3. Poor Israeli Defense Forces – What shall they do now that Canada, Liechtenstein, Monaco, Portugal, Spain, Andorra and the Canary Islands have withdrawn such “critical” defense supplies from such august, feared military powerhouses. The purpose: to stop the phony genocide and starvation of the poor 275 pound fat slob Muslims in Gaza.

    Meanwhile Trump is sending them another (25) F-35’s and thousands of 1,000 lb. and 2,000 lb. guided bombs.

    I think they’ll be fine.

  4. Ahmed al-Rahawi, some ministers died on Thursday in Sanaa, statement says

    some ministers died? Some ministers? Is the cbc an English-speaking news outlet? Do they cover the news? Are they an arm of Al-Jizzera?

  5. Taking bets on the life span of Muhammad Ahmed Miftah the replacement.

    How long will it take for Bibi to hear another houthi?

  6. those lsraeli fly boys. l mean, the *efficiency* of their missions.
    lm sure if the muzzies could down their jets we would hear about it.
    so far? it aint sound of crickets, its the sound OF ALL THE AIRCRAFT RETURNING
