I’m assuming the state legislature said that had to be on flag. No motto should ever be on a flag, especially one that reads “In God We Trust” when religious freedom is guaranteed in said country.

 

The best troll flags were the one written in all Arabic, and the once that included the hammer & sickle

And the Chinese flag defaced with 'by god we trust in communism' too  

 

Just use Norway's flag defaced with the seal... Confederate looking and Christian enough

I don’t know, I’d thought the subtle rip-off of DRC’s flag was nice too

Massive explosion in Beirut. The video I’ve seen is horrific, but I haven’t be able to find any verification of its authenticity. From the authentic reports I’ve seen, there is widespread damage throughout the city.

From those videos which I saw all looks serious and authentic, all media and news TV channels here now reporting about this and shows those videos.

 

Edit: According some people the explosion was heard even in eastern Cyprus.

At the beginning I thought it was an accident of a firework factory, but it couldn't explain the massive explosion afterward. It's way too terrible like a nuclear bomb.

Oh they are true. I mean, one video, sure, have doubts...but tons and tons of videos from literally every angle (flats, streets, even boats)...that's real. And big. That was absolutely insane..

That definitely fits with a fireworks factory. It's how parts of the Dutch city of Enschede were decimated in 2000 - fire, lots of small explosions and then a huge devastating explosing when the whole thing went up.
