What do we know about this? Given the danger of this substance, I'm pretty sure the factory must have all kinds of safety features. Is there a record of previous accidents? Could this have not been an accident?

Terrorists on both the left and right are pretty familiar with the possibilities fertilizer offers.

Any ideas about this? Or am I just paranoid?

Death toll? Spreading fear? I saw a posting by a reader of a similar event in France in October of 2001 or 2002, and even though I believe there was no conclusive evidence, the body of an outsource contractor who had been at his position for no more than five days, was found. He had had problems with his coworkers a few days before the explosion, I believe on religious grounds ...

Something interesting about the Saudi "person of interest" being deported, is that one of the first things he asked when detained was:
Were many people killed?
