But , at least in total Muslim theocracies , women and infidels are treated horrifically . <| sep |> A 5 lb cylinder or propane ? At 21 , 584 btulb nets 107920 btu or 113 , 861 , 628 joules . 1 kg TNT has only 4 , 184 , 000 joules . And you ' re still talking blast radius , so that means detonation , not burn . Detonating a 5 lb cylinder of propane would have destroyed her entire body , destroyed the vehicle , left a crater , and likely outright killed anyone within 20 feet . None of that happened , so it is not plausible . Even a mostlyempty cylinder in the hardtobelieve case that somebody wants to build an IED , but wants to keep it small enough to only mutilate an arm would still scatter shrapnel and cause burns , none of which are present on her . So , again , not at all plausible . A BLEVE would have burned her horrifically . That didn ' t happen either . So not plausible . I ' ve posted several links now to confirmed flashbang injuries that are consistent with her wound . And there are confirmed deaths . It ' s not a stretch to say FBGs are capable of killing , no matter how much you want it to be . I don ' t know what your angle is , but you ' re getting more and more ridiculous .
