The fires of Maui have come to California. Published pictures allegedly (one can never be sure these days) show extensive areas burned-out.
There are reports that fires were set deliberately, starting up in several locations simultaneously.
Bur fire hydrants are dry - the fires cannot be fought. Unlucky? Or deliberate?
The similarities with Maui, whilst not exact, are clear, and no doubt as time passes we will see more clarity. One other thing is clear: in normal circumstances, a population burned out of house and home is effectively dispossessed and cannot fight back.
The recent report from Maui illustrates the point. When authorities remain tight-lipped and inaction rules, we are forced to ask what is going on.
FEMA is tasked to provide emergency relief in such situations, but reportedly did not fulfil that tasking in the recent Carolinas situations. One hopes that they will rise to the occasion in California, but that remains to be reported.
For sure, the global elite through their networks of non-governmental agencies, think tanks, climate catastrophising bodies etc etc are determined to subject us all to a New World Oder which nobody asked for, which excludes all notions of democratic accountability in favour of "stakeholder capitalism", and which will be ruled by technocratic experts who will naturally have only the best of intentions.
But whither will they lead us? Whither are they leading us? Why should we comply?
With large areas now being destroyed, what will be built in their place? Who will build it? To whom will the builders be answerable? Will anything be built at all?
More urgently, where and when will support for the dispossessed be available?
Are these valid questions, or is it all just a silly misguided conspiracy theory?
