I this article regarding the assassination of Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hairiri in 2005. Allegedly his convoy was hit by a miniature tactical nuke, evidence seems to back up that it was a nuclear device, brief but intense heat, bodies chared on one side, but not the other, clothes intact, etc. Upon research I find nothing but opeds on the subject. I have done a lot of research into hydrogen antimatter annihilation propulsion, there is no doubt in my mind this could be weaponized. Any anons have any info?

Thanks anon, I should have included in the body that I was looking for info regarding nanotechnology thermonuclear weapons, supposedly developed by Germany (no doubt US and Israel).

Not exactly anti matter. But it's stuff like neutron which wraps the core of hydrogen,.. It's sticky, especially at high energy levels. Commits another hydrogen.

IMO it can be that you de-waved whole thing which is making matter not hit each other, but whole, even what remains after electron.

You pulled power into pressure like that, and it whole imploded.

Also I seen Uranium on deep net, so...

Fuel air bombs have been mistaken for nukes by conspiratard retards for decades now. Russian handheld thermobaric weapons such as the shmel flamethrower are particularly well suited for ambushing cars and ubiquitous in this role. More than one Donbas separatist has been killed with one of these in recent times.

Impressive weapon, seems it would blow someone into chunks, but I couldn't find any humans hit by it. What was used in the article destroyed objects of significant mass and dehydrated humans, conventional weapons aren't capable of this. Regarding conspiracies, there is a sect that don't believe nukes exist, wherein I've questioned why we need colliders when they could create small controlled nuclear reactions? But this is another topic.

Does it have to be fuel air?

If I put KNO3 in barrel of gasoline, won't it blow too dramatically?

The article mentions the explosion "sucking the oxygen out" this is a hallmark of a fuel air explosive, they basically light the air on fire and create partial vacuum in the blast radius. If this was a thermobaric explosion it is probably one of the few times these would have been used outside of major militaries, but conceivable.

A nuke however is extremely implausible. A traditional fission device the size of a truck would take out half the city. Mini nukes such as the American SADM mine have been made to be the size of a backpack with a yield between 10 tons and a kiloton, the smaller the yield the harder to pull off. A kiloton blast would take out at least the entire city block and jizz radioactive material all around. These were also some of the most closely watched bombs ever made for obvious reasons.

In the late nineties a russian defense minister said they lost track of some portable nukes when the Soviet Union fell but nukes go bad - without maintenance they won't explode so they cant just lie in a shed for twenty years.

If this was anything other than the above we dont know such explosives yet and nobody would waste it on a literal who like Hariri who was of local importance. Especially since you can stuff a truck full of good old explosive and kill a guy much easier that way.

This indicates air fuel, but the bodies aren't burnt and turned into beef jerkey.

Real world application? Possibly send a message.

"this weapon is equipped with a nano-quantity of enriched uranium"
"Technically speaking, the weapon is shaped like a small missile, a few tens of centimeters long. It must be fired from a drone."

These two sentences peaked my interest, I've done extensive research into nuclear physics and have come across no mention of nanotechnology pertaining to it until today, thus this thread. If you read the article, there were some serious problems with the investigation that you too will question.

I'm not doubting the power of conventional weapons, only that they don't dehydrate people.

Does this person actually understand how nuclear weapons work? This reference to nanotechnology seems like handwavium to me.
There are lower limits to the critical mass of fission based weapons, you aren't going to get criticality from a tiny amount of Uranium.
Proposed 'clean' fusion bombs use other first stages like antimatter, which can be an intense X-ray/neutron source at any scale.
It's possible that this could have been a very low yield nuke, but if it was it would have produced lots of very obvious fallout characteristic of a multi kiloton weapon despite being only a ~1 ton blast.

Yes I understand how nuclear weapons work.

"Former Minister Bassel Fleyhan was taken to a topnotch French military hospital for treatment. The doctors were astounded to discover that he had been in contact with enriched uranium."

Would this not be an indication of a nuclear weapon? Did you bother to read the article? If there is a new technology would you not like to understand it?

This is an excerpt from a paper written in 2006:

Nanotechnology, was born a few decades ago – in nuclear weapons laboratories under the names of ‘micromechanical engineering’ and ‘microelectromechanical systems’ (MEMS). A primary impetus for creating these systems was the need for extremely rugged and safe arming and triggering mechanisms for nuclear weapons such as atomic artillery shells. In such warheads, the nuclear explosive and its trigger undergo extreme acceleration (10,000 times greater than gravity when the munition is delivered by a heavy gun). A general design technique is then to make the trigger’s crucial components as small as possible. For similar reasons the detonators and the various locking mechanisms of nuclear weapons were increasingly designed as more and more sophisticated microelectromechanical systems. Consequently, nuclear weapons laboratories such as the Sandia National Laboratory in the US are leading the world in translating the most advanced concepts of MEMS engineering into practice.27

A second impetus for MEMS and nanotechnology, is the ongoing drive towards miniaturisation of nuclear weapons and related quest for very-low yield nuclear explosives for use as a source of nuclear energy in the form of controlled micro explosions. Such explosions (with yields in the range of a few kilograms to a few tons of high-explosive equivalent) would in principle be contained, but they could just as well be used in weapons if suitable compact triggers are developed. It is easier to design a micro-fusion than a micro-fission explosive (which has advantage of producing much less radioactive fallout than a micro-fission device of the same yield). enormous progress has been made, and the research on micro-fusion bombs has now become the main advanced weapons research activity of the nuclear weapons laboratories, using gigantic tools such as the US National Ignition Facility (NIF) and France’s Laser Megajoule. The tiny pellets used in experiments, containing the thermonuclear fuel to be exploded, are certainly the most delicate and sophisticated nano-engineered devices in existence.
