Former Notre Dame Cathedral architect Benjamin Mouton in a live broadcast April 16 on the French TV network LCI:
When the Fox News Channels Shepard Smith hung up on French politician and media analyst Philippe Karsenty during live coverage of the Notre Dame Cathedral blaze, authorities already were speculating the catastrophe that gripped the world was caused by an accident.
Although speculation is the coin of the cable-news realm, an indignant Smith wanted nothing to do with Karsenty providing context to the April 15 fire nearly 2,000 attacks on French churches in two years that would suggest an alternative cause should be considered.
And, in fact, as Karsenty pointed out in an phone interview from France with WND, a former chief architect of the Notre Dame whose analysis has been virtually ignored believes the accident theory makes no sense.
Karsenty told WND he was shocked when Smith abruptly ended the interview.

Cavuto shut down Donahue also, when he started talking about all of the Christian that have been burned. SheShep, I expect that from. Cavuto has been headed strongly leftward also! Well, hell! Most of Faux Snooze has been heading thatawy since the Murdoch boys took over.
Shempard Smith is #FakeNews. He belongs on CNN.
Then he can be near his boyfriends Anderson Cooper and Don Lemon.
I believe it was an accident.
Maybe. Maybe not. Clearly, we don't know yet, and may never know definitively.
What I do know is that there are those out there who want to ‘rebuild’ this amazing cathedral with a minaret. THAT, would be so offensive and aggressive against Christianity such that no Christian should ever visit France again, and no Christian should EVER fight for France again.
We also know that anti-Christian terrorism is a very real problem in the current world. So, anyone whose initial reaction is to worry about anti-Christian terrorism as the cause of this fire is reacting with substantive reason.
I watch no cable TV news. I get my news from scores of internet sources mostly.
FOX is better than the likes of CNN or NBC, and some people on Fox are better than others. But the network is still part of the Uniparty.
I heard that there was a first alarm which indicated a fire at a certain location. Someone responded and no fire was found there. Twenty minutes later, another alarm sounded in different location, and this time the fire was out of control. I always thought that was very puzzling and suspicious. Unless you assume that either the alarm system malfunctioned, or it was misread, you have two fires starting at the same time far enough apart where one could not be seen from the other’s location. That would be no accident.
You don’t think he’d go for “Helter” Stelter?
And the first fire could have been to head off the inspector from the second fire.
Mr. Mouton confirms what I had suspected from the start. A treasure like Notre Dame Cathedral has 24-7 surveillance for fire and any other problems that might arise.
He bolstered that by saying that a new smoke/fire alarm system had been installed in the attic and he couldn’t imagine a failure in that. Junction boxes well below so no possibility of a short in the attic nor malfunction caused by the fire itself. All electrical systems had been recently replaced.
Also, no workmen on the premises at that time.
Well duh. Many FReepers called that.
US is the propaganda capital of the world. Too bad he didn’t know that.
I’ve seen many fires that were declared, without doubt, “spontaneous combustion” or “electrical” by the grand pubba firemarshal, that I later found out were arson. Ironically, the arsonists were volunteer firemen!
Occam’s razor — which is more likely, an combination of mistakes and happenstance leading to fire hot enough to kindle oak beams, or a couple gallons of gas lit by one of the christian hating moslums who have been torching churches regularly, all across Europe?
Is this guy like 900 years old???
Shepard Smith is disgusting
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Agreed, but he’s been disgusting all over their network for over a decade. They like it that way.
Could have been a diversion .... distract while the second fire gets going good.
