Image taken by Dr. Pierre Malychef documenting the 1989 Dora Port Explosion and its aftermaths on March 30th 1989. For more information on the explosion, please go to: https://dark.society.systems/contribution/a-history-of-ammonia/ The photograph shows workers in a destitute hangar with a pressure-torn roof post-explosion. Similarly to Hangar 12, the hangar is filled with white sacks, akin to the ammonium nitrate sacks we all became familiar with in the last 3 years. A huge number of the sacks in the upper left part of the image are molten, due to the heat of the explosion.

ميكس غير منمق ومضمونه غير موسيقي، يحاول استنباط لحظات في عتمة داكنة تلاشت فيها الأشكال وتلاحم معها جسدي وعبرنا الى عالم يقظ اسفله لا يرى إلا باليدين واعمدته تتكلّم فقط لكي تحتبس. للعالم إيقاع خاص متقطع ذو نقرات بليدة أحياناً ومتشنجة أحياناً أخرى. للترحال فيه يجب تلفيق رقصة زاحفة خاصة يقودها العامود الفقري وانقباضات في المعدة.

The ship Yvonne A docked at the fifth basin of the port of Beirut to be loaded with toxic waste barrels from the fake recuperation of Summer 1988. The ship, one out of four sent by the Italian embassy, was sunk before it reached Italy.

Image taken by Pierre Malychef of a group of barrels from the ca. 15,800 barrels carrying the toxic waste trade. Some of the worn barrels contained Dicofol, a highly toxic pesticide whose production and use are banned internationally under the Stockholm Convention. Dicofol is a nerve poison that can also lead to skin and eye toxic reactions in humans and endamage the fertility of several birds, reptiles, aquatic invertebrates and algae. Since Dicofol can be stored in fatty tissues, intense activity or starvation may re-catalyze the chemical, resulting in the reappearance of toxic symptoms long after actual exposure.

Blue barrel from the Italian toxic waste trade, belonging to Comochem International, the Italian division of Morton Thiokol company. The Morton Thiokol Chemical Company was an American corporation founded in 1929. It was concerned initially with rubber and related chemicals, and later with rocket and missile propulsion systems. We wonder if the Thiokol Space Shuttle Challenger Disaster that befell in January 28, 1986 – despite prior warnings from engineers – could be in one way or another related to this waste. For more information, please refer to: https://onlineethics.org/cases/ethical-decisions-morton-thiokol-and-space-shuttle-challenger-disaster-introduction.

An rusted, empty barrel of toxic waste.
We couldn’t find more information around the sources, and whether they were related to the Italian toxic waste trade brought to Lebanon through a deal between the Italian mafia and Lebanese Forces. The image was taken by Pierre Malychef in the late 1980s.

خلال نيسان ٢٠٢٦، قامت شركة آبل بمحو معظم البلدات والقرى في لبنان من تطبيق “مابس”، ولم تترك سوى أسماء المدن الكبرى. سبق أن استخدمت كل من جوجل وآبل استراتيجية المحو ذاتها في غزة. هذا ليس خللًا تقنيًا. إنه تواطؤ صهيوني مبيد، وشكل من أشكال أتمتة نظم الإبادة الجماعية
عندما نشرنا على شبكات التواصل الإجتماعي عن عملية المحو الهائلة التي قامت بها شركة آبل، والتي تحتاج إلى مقاضاة قانونية وإصلاح، أرسل إلينا العديد من المستخدمين من مختلف أنحاء الأرض تسجيلات فيديو للشاشة كدليل على هذا المحو الشامل.
Apple has erased most of the towns and villages in Lebanon from ‘Maps’, keeping only the name of big cities. The same genocidal strategy of erasure has been already used by Google and Apple in Gaza. This isn’t a glitch. It’s Zionist complicity, and part of the genocidal propaganda machine, as well as, the automation of genocide.
When we published online about Apple's massive act of erasure, which must be prosecuted, several users from across the globe sent us screen recordings as evidence of this ubiquitous erasure.

According to the label, this barrel contained diphenylmethane-4,4'-diisocyanate (MDI), a light yellow-colored solid. It is not soluble in water. It may be toxic by ingestion, inhalation, or skin absorption; acute (short-term) inhalation of high concentrations of MDI may cause sensitization and asthma in humans. If in a solution it may or may not burn depending on the nature of the material and/or the solvent. It is used to produce polyurethane foams.
The next picture (probably of the front label) indicates that the content of the barrel is related to polyurethanes, produced by the British chemical company, Imperial Chemical Industries (ICI). The barrel may be related to the toxic waste deal between the Italian mafia and the Lebanese Forces through its Italian division, Atlas Europol s.p.A. From 1982 till 1987, the chairman of the company was Sir John Harvey-Jones, a British naval commander during World War II and a naval intelligence specialist post-World War II, whose approach to the chemical business was focused on speed, more power into fewer hands, and high profit.
The barrel is rusted and has seashells growing on it, signs that it was submerged in seawater for a certain period of time.
The image was taken by Pierre Malychef in the late 1980s.

The lid of a barrel with two duct tapes running over it labeled "RORER ITALIANA S.p.A." with the logo of RORER. The latter focuses on the production of organic fine chemistry, pharmaceuticals, machines, and macromolecular chemistry and polymers. The last patent published by the company was on April 2, 1987. Read more on: https://goodip.io/iq/assignee/rorer-italiana-spa#patents.
This lid ended up on Lebanese territories due the toxic waste deal between the Italian Mafia and the Lebanese Forces. This image was taken by Pierre Malychef in the late 1980s.
