Texas explosion needs investigation foul play End times new update 4-20-13
20 April 2013 Texas explosion needs investigation foul play End times new update 4-20-13 president Obama said federal emergency
Authorities were still calling the blast site a crime scene though they said they strongly suspected an accident.
Was this explosion an accident? I have another video that made me wonder this video only makes me wonder even more...
What
gets me on both videos the direction of the blast seems to come from
the left to the fire....if the explosion came from the fire it would go
out and not in...sure makes one wonder what caused this explosion
WEST, Texas (Reuters) - Investigators searched for clues on Friday to
the cause of a Texas fertilizer plant explosion that obliterated
sections of a small town and killed at least 12 people, including
volunteer firefighters who raced to the scene to douse a blaze.
There
was no indication of foul play in the blast at West Fertilizer Co, a
privately owned facility that authorities said had not been inspected in
two years.
The farm supply business, located in a residential
area of West, had told a state agency that it stored potentially
combustible ammonium nitrate on the site.
A Texas state official
said Friday that 12 people died in the blast and approximately 200 were
injured. Earlier, the mayor of West said 14 had died.
Texas
Senator John Cornyn said the deputy fire marshal of the town told him
that 60 people were still unaccounted for but that number was expected
to come down. Authorities are cross-referencing people who are at the
hospital, maybe staying with relatives or have left town, he said.
"I would just take that (number) with a grain of caution," Cornyn said.
The
deaths included paramedics and volunteer firefighters who responded to
an initial fire alarm, and likely were killed by the ensuing blast,
which was so powerful it registered as a magnitude 2.1 earthquake.
It
left a devastated landscape, reducing a 50-unit apartment complex to
what one local official called "a skeleton standing up," destroying
about 50 homes and heavily damaging a nursing home and schools.
Officials
on Friday said 25 homes had yet to be searched. In some cases the
structures needed to be reinforced before anyone could enter, they said
The
explosion was one of a series of events that put Americans on edge this
week including the Boston marathon bombing and discovery of poisoned
envelopes addressed to President Barack Obama and a Republican senator.
The death toll was huge for a town of 2,700, and nearly everyone seemed to know someone who died or was presumed dead.
Brian
Uptmor, 37 said his brother disappeared after he went toward the fire
on Wednesday night to try to save horses in a pasture near the plant.
William
"Buck" Uptmor, 44, has not been found among the injured at area
hospitals, has not answered his cell phone and his truck has not moved
from where he left it.
"He is dead. We don't know where his body is," said Uptmor, a former firefighter. "It'll probably hit me at the funeral."
DANGEROUS MATERIALS
West
Fertilizer Co is a retail facility that blends fertilizer and sells
anhydrous ammonia and other chemical products to local farmers. It
stored 270 tons of "extremely hazardous" ammonium nitrate, according to a
report filed by the company with the state government.
Farmers use anhydrous ammonia as fertilizer to boost soil nitrogen levels and improve crop production.
The
West plant is one of thousands of sites across rural America that
stores and sells hazardous materials such as chemicals and fertilizer
for agricultural use. Many are near residences and schools.
The
plant was last inspected for safety in 2011, according to a Risk
Management Plan filed with the federal Environmental Protection Agency.
The EPA fined the firm $2,300 in 2006 for failing to implement a risk management plan.
The plant's owner could not be reached for comment.
While
authorities stressed it was still too early to speculate on the precise
cause of the blast, a forensic sciences expert said investigators
probably would consider at least two scenarios.
John Goodpaster,
assistant professor and director of forensic sciences at Indiana
University-Purdue University Indianapolis, said anhydrous ammonia is
stored in liquid form but forms a vapor when mixed with air that can be
explosive.
If enough heat is applied to a container of anhydrous ammonia, he said, "that container could become a bomb."
A
second possibility is that ammonium nitrate, which was stored at the
facility, could have exploded, said Goodpaster. This was the cause of
one of America's worst industrial accidents. In 1947 ammonium nitrate
detonated aboard a ship in a Texas City port, killing nearly 600 people.

The few who understand the system will either be so interested in its profits or so dependent on its favours that there will be no opposition from that class, while on the other hand, the great body of the people mentally incapable of comprehending the tremendous advantage that capital derives from the system will bear its burdens without complaint and perhaps without even suspecting that the system is inimical to their interests.

When, through a process of law, the common people lose their homes they will become more docile and more easily governed through the influence of the strong arm of government, applied by a central power of wealth under control of leading financiers.
This truth is well known among our principal men now engaged in forming an imperialism of Capital to govern the world.
By dividing the voters through the political party system, we can get them to expend their energies in fighting over questions of no importance. Thus by discreet action we can secure for ourselves what has been so well planned and so successfully accomplished."

Ammonium nitrate is an unstable chemical and is believed to pose danger of explosion even handled cautiously. The US is home for 34 production plants of ammonium nitrate and 6,000 retail facilities including the West Fertilizer Company. Anhydrous ammonia is a highly explosive chemical, combines with faulty safety handling as what investigators believes, is a waiting tragedy to happen. There are so many factors that lead to the explosion.
