Building a road. They set off an explosion to build a road. What did they need to blow up on a flat coastal plane that would stop them from building a road? look at the topo maps of the area. It's a low flat plane, almost sea level. You don't blow up flat land to make way for a road.
Here's a reason:

How do you know the road was flat? You are looking at a map and maps do not show each and every detail as you well know, admit it you are just guessing!

There is only one or two problems with your guess work you obviously missed the fact the explosion did not happen 30 miles away it was 110 miles according to published reports. There goes you theory of the land not being flat.
As someone else pointed out for all anyone knows it could have been a huge rock that fell on a flat road. That is something your map will never show. Care to pull up some satilite photos next? Even then you will not have proof because you do not know the coordinates of the explosion do you?

Iranian State television is reporting that there has been a large explosion just outside the southern city of Dailam.

And your cutesy little boulder crap is from the California mudslides. That boulder had to roll down a mountain, which you won't find near Dailam.

You have yet to prove exactly where the expolosion took place, admit it you are just quessing?

12 Miles outside Dailam. That's one detail of the story that has never been changed.
I was surprised they had the distance so exact and revealed it so early. Hmm.
I've put a scale on it, there is nothing within a twelve mi radius that needs blasted. While I don't know exactly where within that 12 mile radius the explosion took place, I know for damn sure that nothing within it would present a challenge to road construction that would require it.

Again you are just guessing. You have no way of knowing what is and what is not in the immediate area without the exact location where the explosion took place.
Bushehr, Feb 16, IRNA -- Governor General of the southern province of
Bushehr Esmaeel Tabadar here on Wednesday has denied any attack on
Iran`s nuclear and oil facilities in the province.
Tabadar told IRNA that foreign media had in a targeted move
falsely mentioned the sound of a blast heard from a mountainous region
220 kilometers north of Bushehr nuclear power plant before noon
Wednesday as an attack on the power plant.
He said that although the Wednesday pre-noon blast in the
mountainous region east of Daylam port in northern Bushehr province
was an insignificant issue, military experts immediately headed to
the region aboard a helicopter to identify the cause of the incident.
He added that the experts had strongly rejected any military
invasion of the site.
The official reiterated that the site of the explosion had been a
mountainous region in the north of Bushehr province, which is
uninhabited.
An informed source said the minor explosion might have have been
set off in a mountainous region east of Daylam port 220 kilometers
north of Bushehr before noon on Wednesday by Oil Ministry contractors,
while attempting to clear the ground for implementing oil projects.
He said the use of dynamite to clear the rough mountainous terrain
for roads to implement oil projects is a usual procedure.

Well now were talking about 2 different locations. Just outside of Deylam is not mountainous. So they are moving the source of the explosion to an area where it would be called for.

What is your motivation for covering this up? What makes you so ignorant that simple facts when presented clearly are easily laughed off?
