Just got sick when I realized that there was... a massive fire set early this morning (Jan 7th) in DTLA at Hope & Pico which occurred at approximately the SAME TIME as the Palisades fire. Strangely, this is directly adjacent to where another huge fire occurred the day after Christmas (1.5 weeks prior) at the famous Morrison Hotel. I imagine most people were too busy celebrating Christmas to even hear about it. Attached here is an exclusive video of the DTLA Morrison Hotel fire, an exclusive photo showing the damage from both fires (Hope/Pico damage circled in red) and news articles about both. Hard Questions: Did the same entity start BOTH fires to divert resources so they couldn’t effectively combat the Palisades Fire before it became catastrophic? CBS said over a hundred firefighters were busy battling the DTLA fire this morning. Was the fire on the same DTLA block 1.5 weeks ago the “test” fire for the one set this morning? Oh and apparently someone has been trying to develop that entire Hope block where the fires occurred for years but that would be extremely difficult to get approved due to the historic buildings. It’s giving Maui Fire land grab vibes imo. Coincidence? Or Occam’s Razor?

🚨🚨2-ALARM FIRE Tucson Fire was dispatched to a call... of fire nature unknown at 3:37 this afternoon in the 3100 block of East 22nd Street. Engine 3 arrived six minutes later and reported smoke coming from the back door on and eaves of an abandoned AM/PM. A full alarm was called, and crews started to search for the source of the fire. As seen in this video, there was a significant fire event. The roof collapsed, and operations shifted to a defensive mode. At this time, crews are unable to enter the building to extinguish remaining hot spots, and excavators will be used to tear it down. Firefighters were on the roof when it collapsed, but they were uninjured, as was the individual seen in the video. This video highlights the dangers our crews face every time they battle a fire, and we are thankful that everyone is safe. The fire was caused by homeless activity.show more

Just before 12:30 Monday afternoon, the FDNY responded to... a 4-alarm fire at 44-49 College Point Boulevard in Queens. Tragically, four people lost their lives in this fire. Two other victims were transported to area hospitals in critical condition. During operations, a stairwell collapsed, trapping two of our members. They were transported to area hospitals in stable condition. More than 230 firefighters and EMS personnel responded. “This is a difficult and tragic day. There were several victims in this fire. The Fire Department did an extraordinary job under difficult circumstances, putting this fire out and saving people. I can't thank them enough for their continued efforts and commitment to life safety,” said Fire Commissioner Lillian Bonsignore. “Upon arrival, we had heavy fire on all three floors of this building. There was a victim trapped on the second floor, which our members removed with a portable ladder. As our engine companies were moving in from the first floor and up the stairs to the second floor, the stairs collapsed, and those two members were trapped in the stairs. With additional help, we were able to extricate those members. As all that is happening, other members are performing CPR on the victims in the street,” said Chief of Fire Operations Kevin Woods. The fire was placed under control just before 2:45 p.m. FDNY Fire Marshals are working to determine the cause of the fire.show more

Footage of the initial start of the fires in... Lahaina, Maui. #hawaii #wildfire No official cause has been released yet but class action lawsuits have already been opened by multiple law firms, suing the local utility and power companies for their roll in the tragedy. The class action lawsuit alleges that downed power lines that MECO, HECO, HELCO, and HEI owned and operated caused the fire. “The utilities also failed to deenergize their power lines prior to the fire, despite warnings days before that high winds from Hurricane Dora would create "high fire danger." On the day of the fire, the National Weather Service issued a High Wind Warning and Red Flag Warning.” There is still a lot to be determined with this fire, but it’s clear the devastation to the community will be felt for years. The death toll is now up to 80 people. This will likely rise.show more

It doesn’t matter what material you build your house... from, when a fire, fueled by high winds hits, it’s not being saved. This is from a “small” recent fire in Gatlinburg area that got close to a house I owned. Took out quite a few homes. The wind just carries the sparks everywhere and often the fires start at the roof level (not the ground or side of the house). Once the roof area is hit, it’s all over. The fire will burn the house from the inside out. And it doesn’t matter if it’s a metal roof…think of all the wood components that metal roof attaches to and the eaves, soffits, etc. Just one spark can start a fire. When the wind is blowing at 60-80 mph gusts, you’re getting millions of sparks. The fires also get into the tree tops (especially of pine) and then balls of fire can also start raining down in clumps onto houses below as well. ICF, poured walls, concrete block….all irrelevant when you have a massive fire coming your way.show more

Iran More [Coincidental] fires are happening in Iran Since... this morning 1 fire has been raging on in the district 22 in Teheran (west of Teheran center, north of Qods) Another fire has been reported in the industrial zone of Qom city A third fire resulting from an explosion is being reported in Mashhad city Video 1&2: Mashhad Video 3&4: Teheran (district 22) Isn’t it interesting how these fires are happening all of a sudden? In itself the fires are insignificant but combined they have the potential to put strain on the Iranian economy and resources. It’s interesting that we went through a similar experience the last few times when the Iranian regime was under immense pressure from international powers.show more

Some inconsistencies between official reports and eyewitness accounts of... the terrorist attack in Crocus City Hall. ⬛️ Millions of video surveillance cameras are installed in Moscow. At the same time, terrorists, armed to the teeth, are easily moving around the city in cars with fake license plates. ⬛️ Crocus has a contract with the Okhrana Federal State Unitary Enterprise of the National Guard. But the video from the lobby and other rooms where terrorists are shooting people shows no resistance from the guards. There are no guards among the dead or wounded either. ⬛️ Survivors report that the guards did not check bags and clothes before entering Crocus, and the metal detectors were turned off. Even without taking into account warnings about possible terrorist attacks from foreign embassies, the Russian authorities are already constantly reporting about increased vigilance. ⬛️ Terrorists leave a "lead" in the form of a car in which they arrived and about which everything is already known. ⬛️ It is reported that the very same white Renault with terrorists was detained in the Bryansk region on the way to the Ukrainian border. Why didn't the attackers change the car the whole country was looking for? Even if they were on their way to Ukraine, why through Bryansk, where the border zone is maximally fortified and protected? ⬛️ It is claimed that the building was set on fire using gasoline from canisters. Was it really enough for a fire of this magnitude in a building built to all fire safety requirements? ⬛️ Why are there no signs of automatic fire extinguishing systems working? They were checked so thoroughly after the tragedy in Kemerovo's Zimnyaya Vishnya shopping mall. ⬛️ Spetsnaz drove for over an hour, even though the OMON military base is 8 minutes from Crocus. The firefighters did not put out the fire before Spetsnaz arrived. Spetsnaz waited until they finished putting out the fire to start the assault. As if someone was interested in more casualties or the escape of terrorists. At the moment, it is reported that the number of victims of the terrorist attack in Crocus has reached 143 people. The video shows the completely collapsed dome of the Crocus City Hall concert venue.show more

I’m tired of people calling these fires “wild” when... they are clearly DEWmesticated. We have the technology that there should never be another out of control fire again, yet to use the technology to do the complete opposite. In this video, I give a brief breakdown of my position, and some evidence to back up my claims. I’ve shown another videos how they stop moisture from getting to fires, create high winds to spread them and exacerbate, the drought conditions in the first place, as well as potentially using airborne nano materials to increase ferocity. I’ve also included the phenomenon that I have captured four separate times now in the last month, where you will see a specific type of seeded nano material show up in a frequency pattern just above some fire and then all of a sudden that fire explodes into a rage. Now it would be very easy for them to superheat some of these nano metals turn them into searing hot fire starters, but many of these materials are what you find in fireworks so all they would have to do is steer them over the fire and then release the magnetic grip and just let them fall, raining, highly flammable, nano materials, thus exacerbating the fire. This is also combined with them using the radars to create the high winds that fire is low and keep the moisture well away .show more

🚨🇺🇸 FAST-MOVING WILDFIRE NORTH OF LA FORCES EVACUATIONS Mandatory... evacuation orders have been issued for a wildfire that has already burned 500 acres near Castaic in Los Angeles County. The blaze, called the Hughes Fire, was first reported just before 11 a.m. near Lake Hughes Road and Castaic Lake, according to Cal Fire and Angeles National Forest officials. The fire is spreading quickly due to strong Santa Ana winds and extremely low humidity, with the area under a Red Flag Warning. Fred Fielding of the LA County Fire Department: “This time of year is especially dangerous. It’s been almost 300 days since we’ve had any significant rainfall.” This comes after devastating wildfires earlier this month left 28 people dead and destroyed homes, schools, and churches across Los Angeles County. Angeles National Forest, where the fire started, is closed to the public until Jan. 24 for safety reasons. Sources: Cal Fire, CBSshow more

This video was sent to me by a viewer... whose husband was evacuating their cabin near Eureka as the Cherry Fire exploded Friday afternoon. The flames can be seen burning on both sides of the road as he drove to safety. It’s a sobering look at just how fast this fire spread during the extreme winds and dangerous fire weather. The Cherry Fire is one of several large wildfires that rapidly grew across central Utah today, forcing evacuations, closing roads, and sending thick smoke across much of the state. If you’re in or near an evacuation area, don’t wait. Leave when you’re told. Conditions can change in minutes. Thank you to the family for allowing me to share this incredible video. Stay safe, Utah. 🔥show more

A simple(ton's) guide to understanding climate change and wildfires:... Yes, the Biscarrosse wildfire was started by a van that caught fire. The flames spread to roadside vegetation before moving into the forest. That is a fact. What isn't true is the claim that this means climate change had nothing to do with it. Climate change didn't set the van on fire. It helped create the conditions that allowed a single vehicle fire to become a major wildfire. France is suffocating under intense, recurring heatwave conditions. The Landes de Gascogne forest has been turned into a tinderbox, where a single ignition source was all it took for disaster to unfold. The flames spread rapidly, burning thousands of hectares and forcing thousands of people to flee. The van was the spark. The heat and dry conditions were the fuel. Hotter, drier landscapes mean fires spread faster, burn harder and become far more destructive. Stop staring at the match and start looking at why it was able to become such a disaster.show more

Debunking the Taliban propaganda of Rehab Center ⚠️⚠️⚠️ Following... Pic Marked in red the actual impact site hit by PAF as shown in attached video too. In video from Sniper Pod clearly shows the primary explosion is much smaller followed by secondary explosion which is much huge after little delay clearly showing its ammo storage ignited The area marked in green are the metal barracks for the Taliban fighters or which they are calling it so called Rehab center and much far away from actual impact site the site and fire caused due to secondary one that’s why no structure damage seen. Now how on earth you keep the drug addicts in same base where such amount of ammo stored and due to distance and fire take time they must had enough time to evacuate the place before fire reaches to full , #Operation_Ghazab_Lil_Haqq #AfghanistanPakistanWarshow more

1/5 How #ITLF engineered the #ManipurViolence by burning the... Centenary gate at Leishang . This is the first available photo taken at 1421 hours or 2.21 pm on 3rd May, where it is seen that a crowd has gathered at the #CentenaryGate with ‘smoke’ at the foot of the concrete structure. A video uploaded showed that a docile looking small fire with 2/3 rubber tyres is seen. ‼️This is the ‘Fire’ which the #Kukis have justified and given the reason that led to an orgy of vandalism, Assault and arson of hundreds of homes and murder in the next 3 hours of that afternoon ‼️ ‼️But at around 12.30 pm, for whatever reasons, there was a large #Kuki crowd gathered, which disappeared for a while and appear when the ‘Fire’ at the concrete structure of the gate started. ‼️ ‼️Who gave directive for the gathered crowd /guards to disappear and then reappear ? ‼️ ‼️ There is no way, anyone could have burnt the Centenary gate without the crowd intervening especially for a Meitei. It is impossible for a Meitei to even touch the gate, leave alone set it on fire by placing 2/3 tyres ‼️ But this is what happened soon afterwards. The following places were vandalised , burnt and civilians killed by #ITLF, #KukiMilitants and their supporter in the next 3 hours of this tragic day : 2.20 pm to 5.30 pm Torbung Phougakchou Moreh Bijang Khunou Meitei leikai Phailian Leimaram Compound Veng khanami Bazaar Khuga Tampak Khumujamba Yaifakon Lingsiphai Kangpokpi Forest beat office at Mualnam and Singhatshow more
