So were the fires in Hawaii set so that rich Chinese fleeing China can scoop up some nice beachfront land to start a Chinatown in Maui on?

A lot of bad fires that killed many were due to an explosion or something else as opposed to a wildfire set off by, presumably, something natural, like lightning or wind driven embers on dry vegetation or were part of something else, such as an earthquake.

This Maui fire is already arguably ranking (based on current statistics on missing people) as the 2nd worst wildfire of all time and a top 20 overall fire.

Is it me, or does it seem the mainstream media is not really covering it the way you would expect of a disaster of this level?
