California Fires Terrorist Related?
I’ve not been happy with the idea of natural causes for the California fires. Natural fire cause are almost always lightening strikes which are very unlikely in an area suffering from drought. Additionally fires that spontaneusly start in several different areas are always suspected to be caused by arson. But were the alleged arsonists Islamic terrorists? Well, according to the WND article, there is a distinct possibility. From California fires spark suspicion of terror again
California authorities have confirmed some of the wildfires that have triggered the evacuation of about a million people and burned 1,600 structures with damages at more than $1 billion were set deliberately, and a terror watch organization says the circumstances match terror plans the FBI alerted law enforcement to several years ago.
“In 2003 an FBI memo alerted law enforcement agencies that an al-Qaida terrorist being held in detention had talked of masterminding a plot to set a series of devastating forest fires around the western United States,”
Terrorist related arsons have been reported in France and are a frequent occurence in Israel.
In blazes across Europe that year, there was evidence terrorists may have contributed. Authorities said after fires swept through the Moures mountains near the French Riviera, investigators found Molotov cocktails – gasoline bombs – at the ignition point for fires that killed at least four and destroyed 50 homes.
In fact, Arab terrorists in Israel have started dozens of major forest fires over the years.
As far back as 1988, Israeli police caught more than a dozen Palestinian adults in the act of setting fires, while other Arabs confessed to arson after arrest. Some fires followed specific calls by underground Arab terrorists. A leaflet issued by the Palestinian uprising’s underground leadership called for “the destruction and burning of the enemy’s properties, industry and agriculture.”
