Tinfoil hat nonsense.
The colour of the massive plume (orange-red) proves it was an ammonium nitrate explosion (release of NO2 by one of the high energy combustion reactions). Also, nukes do not produce such plumes and instead produce a violent flash of light that can fry people exposed to it. There was no such flash of light in Beirut. A 6 kt nuke is roughly of the size of the Hiroshima nuke at 12-18 kt. So vastly more damage would have been caused by a 6 kt nuke than we saw with the obviously chemical explosion.
The Beirut ammonium nitrate explosion has nothing to do with advanced nuclear bomb technology. Why use such tech when one already has enough explosive in place to do the job? And this mythical tech is really the dial-a-yield one that has been discussed for years.
