Re: Footage from the Massive Explosion in Beirut Port, Lebanon
One thing I know of the fire service is that it is a brotherhood that transcends international borders because the fight is with a common enemy worldwide. Even during the Cold War the Soviets had an exchange program with FDNY. Tactics are shared. Equipment that is no longer allowed to be use in the US is donated to Third World countries. Departments have been known to even pick up the cost to transport apparatus to another country as well as sending an apparatus operator to instruct the new owners on how to maintain and use it. The loss of these ten jakes is felt worldwide in firehouses everywhere, big and small, urban and rural, career and volunteer. LAY ME DOWN BESIDE COOL WATERS SHORE AND LAY TO REST MY BODY SORE SEND THE WORD OUT TO MY BROTHERS THE FIRE IS DOWN, LET IT BURN NO MORE |

Re: Footage from the Massive Explosion in Beirut Port, Lebanon
There's about a 20 second livestreamed video of about 4-5 firefighters getting ready to enter the warehouse, it was on twitter. They were right there in the parking lot, maybe 30 feet from the building. Cuts off just as the heaviest black smoke comes barreling from under the eaves.

No religion and no theocracy of any kind is real. That in itself is all you have to say. The closest you can possible get is that god is an option, one option of many.

Do you have a YT account? I have a couple old forgotten ones, but I don't screw around with those fuckheads much.
