BEIRUT (AP) — A massive explosion rocked Beirut on Tuesday, flattening much of the port, damaging buildings and blowing out windows and doors across the capital and sending a giant mushroom cloud into the sky. There were hundreds of casualties, with bodies buried under the rubble, officials said.

1981 for me

Yep.  Crazy fact I learned from Netflix's "Last Dance" documentary on the Chicago Bulls dynasty:

Steve Kerr's dad was one of the people killed during the violence over there in the early 1980's.

That's crazy.  The ties to Syria in that area were all too obvious during that time.  Lebanon has been a proxy state for their violence forever.
