The question is this who started the forest fires in California? Could it have been from lighting strikes……no! or far-out environmentalist……….maybe so. Or is it handy work of the terrorist? Read this report and make up your mind:

“FBI: al-Qaeda detainee spoke of fire plot
PHOENIX (AP) — The FBI alerted law enforcement agencies last month that an al-Qaeda terrorist now in detention had talked of masterminding a plot to set a series of devastating forest fires around the western United States.

Rose Davis, a spokeswoman for the National Interagency Fire Center in Boise, told The Associated Press that officials there took note of the warning but didn't see a need to act further on it.
The contents of the June 25 memo from the FBI's Denver office were reported Friday by The Arizona Republic. Davis declined to share a copy of the memo and an FBI spokeswoman in Denver didn't immediately return a telephone call.

The Republic reported that the detainee, who was not identified, said the plan involved three or four people setting wildfires using timed devices in Colorado, Montana, Utah and Wyoming that would detonate in forests and grasslands after the operatives had left the country.
The memo noted that investigators couldn't determine whether the detainee was telling the truth.
The newspaper said many forest law enforcement officers it contacted had no idea the warning had been issued.”



If this is the “handy work” of the terrorist they should brought up on charges of first degree murder if they are caught....

At least two of the fires are known to have been started accidentally. Law enforcement released a composite sketch of a man seen in the area where the San Bernardino fire started. From the sketch, he looks Mexican, but he is described as white.
