Massive protests took place in Beirut, Lebanon Saturday following the mega-blast earlier in the week that tore through Lebanon’s capital with the force of an earthquake.
More than 100 people were killed and 4,000 injured after a warehouse exploded near the port in Beirut.
On Saturday tens of thousands took to the streets in Beirut denouncing Iranian-backed Hezbollah terrorists and their leader Hassan Nasrallah.
And now an Italian explosives expert is speaking out about the massive blast that he says was likely a military missile warehouse. Italian Danilo Coppe spoke with Heshmat Alavi about the nature of the Beirut blast.
Coppe believes the red plume is a sign of lithium metal used as a propellant in military missiles.

There's this from a fellow who holds himself out as a PhD chemist:
The "VoiceOfThunder" chemist maintain that the coloration of the blast is due to the color of the ferric soil in the area around the Beirut port.
Interesting informed speculation. Hard to get past the smoke and fire on this one.
