Posting on new thread (h/t stars & stripes forever & Nikk): https://www.freerepublic.com/focus/chat/3741318/posts?page=1811#1811 "EXCELLENT POST BY NIKK ON "A WEEKLY DOSE OF PRESIDENT TRUMP FAMILY TRAIN". NIKK..I'm posting this information but I don't know if this information has a good source. Please judge for yourself... -Sotir Dimpinoudis(Independent Freelance Journalist): My Source in Paris, Some Witnesses on the ground when the cathédrale Notr-Dame de Paris. NotreDame in #France, closed are saying this cannot be a accident! No workers were on the scene after they closed down the church. "We want to hear the truth" SD: - My Source in Paris says, people are saying there were also some people inside the cathédrale Notre-Dame de Paris. When the church got on fire after leaving for closing the building. SD:My source on the ground in Paris has managed to get in touch with that firefighter who put out the fire last month at the #SaintSulpice church. He is saying that "there was a odd smell in the air at the time of the fire" NotreDame. My source on the ground in Paris says that the firefighter has said, it was impossible that the fire managed to spread so fast at the NotreDame because electrical equipment or wires in the wooden space, was prohibited to be used in fear of sparks. Sotiri Dimpinoudis Says all electrical wires of the construction crew, were guided on the side of the building or the cranes if used at the time, and was not in contact with the wooden space at the NotreDame church in #Paris. Says regulations were strictly and always followed by the company. JAIME.....Video is emerging of a GiletsJaunes in black cloths at one of the the 2 towers half an hour at the start of the fire at the cathédrale Notre-Dame de Paris. pic.twitter.com/ugyc9b3p9U— 🇺🇸J A I M E 🇺🇸 (@jaimemaga45) April 16, 2019 There were people dispatched to remove and try to save artwork I heard very very early on this morning when the news of the fire was first reported. 2. That could be it? 9h..Just in - The Fire has been contained and put out at the cathédrale Notre-Dame de #Paris. #NotreDame in #France. French Firefighters are saying they are hosing to drop the temperature of the wood and stone walls inside the church."

My wife and I have flipped a few houses. We left a couple of rags with fresh varnish on a cement floor at one of the projects and came back to find they had spontaneously combusted and the house filled with soot. Had those rags been near any other combustible material we would have had a huge problem.
I find the ND fire suspicious but, stuff like that does happen. Centuries old wood burns like gasoline.

I’m leaning toward a highly controlled, clandestine operation to torch the church for distraction, sympathy, or demoralization. I think the French Govt. burned it themselves, again motives unclear.

I think this because nobody died, they got most if not all of the artwork out, and at the end of the day the building did not burn down.

On the other hand, it seems the muzzards had set Notre Dame as target #1 some time ago, so there’s plenty of reason to suspect them. I can’t credit it as an accident because I can’t get my arms around how an accident starts a fire that races from one end of the roof to the other. I’m pretty sure the timbers of the roof were covered with lead; how could they catch fire without a lot of help. Moreover, France is supposed to be a first world country. How could they have shoddy construction practices that could allow a fire to get so completely out of control.

Nothing about it makes sense, ergo it must be a derp st@te operation.
