The horrific explosion was one fifth the size of the nuclear bomb dropped on Hiroshima.

The camera positions made it hard to tell just how big that blast was. How far people were made it look like it was massive from close up, when it was huge from far off.

I for one think they're basically running with their tail between their legs for the hills. No one wants to be responsible for the aftermath, completely separate from the mobs out in full force. The billions needed to rebuild 1/5 of that city aren't gonna come from the city's coffers obviously. I doubt even worldwide charity will cover the losses, not including the injury and medical bills.

It's more than that. There's been steady pressure from the public for them to "resign or hang" long before this.

Too bad US patriots don't command that kind of respect. We should change that.
