Failed State Devastation

| Well, Chinese authorities claimed the first explosion had been triggered when the summer heat caused a highly flammable compound called nitrocellulose to spontaneously ignite. | |
| Nearby stores of ammonium nitrate then caught fire and exploded in the major port city. | |
| It's hard to believe that just the heat of Beirut. | |
| Caused this. | |
| Oh my god. | |
| It's a horrible thing. | |
| Then as now witnesses filmed apocalyptic, almost surreal footage showing the scale of the inferno. | |
| 150 people at least are dead. | |
| Thousands have been injured. | |
| Massive damage. | |
| And Lebanon was already in... | |
| In a terrible state. | |
| Sort of like in a failed state. | |
| I was mentioning to the living martyr earlier during a break, Hezbollah has ruined Lebanon. | |
| Lebanon was the garden of the Middle East, of the Arab Middle East. | |
| It's where the rich went to enjoy themselves. | |
| I was in Beirut a long time ago. | |
| And it was a thriving city. | |
| And then the Civil War was the beginning of the end. | |
| The radical Muslims against the rest of society. | |
| And it's an amazing thing because people keep voting in Hezbollah like it's done any good for them. | |
| You realize the power of emotions in the human... | |
| Species? | |
| How little is governed by reason? | |
| Why would anybody vote for Hezbollah for a rational reason? | |
| It's just a terror, totalitarian organization. | |
| That's what it is. | |
| I'm sure it feeds some people. | |
| They all do. | |
| The Nazis fed people too. | |
| Every disgusting organization feeds people. | |
| Otherwise they die. | |
| Local reports that the warehouse contained fireworks. | |
| They kept fireworks with this ammonium nitrate. | |
| They also have lighter fluid just, you know, to help. | |
| The picture of the, oh, the devastation. | |
| Yeah, it's like a bomb fell, a major bomb, right? | |
| I'm not comparing the Democrats to Hezbollah. | |
| I want to make that clear. | |
| But it does make me think, why do people keep re-electing Democrats in failed cities? | |
| We have failed cities like Lebanon is a failed state. | |
