We haven’t been told the race of the person who ordered the welding, the race of the judge who ordered that the nitrate stay on the port, the race of the people who put fireworks next to thousands of tons of highly explosive material in a dense city, etc...
Someone is trying to make Syrian refugees into Girardian black sheep. This wouldn't be the first time. The irony is that Bashar Al Assad used nitrate-filled barrel bombs to decimate the Syrian people, and he is supported by Hezbollah and Iran, which have a huge influence in Lebanon. Their influence cannot be separated from the incompetence and corruption that led to the blast.
Here's the really crazy part: some people are saying that a lot of the nitrate which was originally stored must have been smuggled out, because otherwise the blast would have been larger. If true, it wouldn't be surprising that the nitrate was smuggled for Assad to use in barrel bombs.
just a correction Syrian is not a race Lebanese and Syrians or Jordanians are all arabs but you find different beleafe groups there, christians muslims (Shia and sunni and...) and more but most of them are Arabs if not all

Here's a list of barrel bombs dropped by the Syrian Air Force. That's a lot of nitrate...: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Syrian_Civil_War_barre...
