Notre Dame Fire Deemed ‘Accident,’ But Here’s What the Media is Not Telling You

On Monday, the world reacted in horror as the nearly 900-year old Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris was nearly completely destroyed by fire.

Horrific flames quickly engulfed the entire core structure, and after 2 hours, the iconic spire collapsed, along with most of the roof and its 210 tons of lead.

That's what we know.

Here's what we don't: What caused it?

Well the media seems to have focused on one reason, and one reason only: the cathedral was "under construction" -- a reported $7 million project lasting years, and scheduled to complete just this year.

Therefore the most logical reason, absent obvious foul play, is a "construction accident."

FoxNews and most other nets treated it as such:

Given the scope of the renovations, it is quite likely a "welding spark ignited paint thinner" or any other cause widely speculated in media reports, that can typically occur on a busy construction site.

But there's just one big problem with that.

Two hours after the spire collapsed, French-Greek journalist Sotiri Dimpinoudis reported that there were no construction workers onsite at the time of the fire:

Sounds a lot more extensive than what I’ve been able to confirm. I do know French people but unfortunately nobody in Paris.

Sigh.

We will probably never know the truth.

Thanks, Internet.

Moslems with drones is my line of thinking. With nothing but a container of brake fluid and swimming pool shock crystals.
Only takes about 90 seconds and poof, big fireball.

As I said elsewhere, but perhaps not in your sight: it doesn't matter a bit that we do, should, or don't believe in gematria.

The point is that's where they place their trust.

No welding spark possible ... on a scaffold..... AFTER the construction workers have left work ....

And they stop welding 30 minutes BEFORE climbing down the scaffolding. Mandatory stop 30 minutes before STARTING to climb down the scaffolding up on the work area.

Terrorism and conspiracies are oh so much sexier than a careless construction worker who wasn't onsite.

That said, I would rephrase that and say that terrorism (of the islamic variety) and conspiracy theories are much more likely to be true, especially considering the precedent the muslims have managed to set with their history of behavior.

If the first thought millions of people have that it was islamic terrorism, thereee's a reason for it and they have NO ONE to blame but themselves.

Western humanity's most cherished icon is suddenly destroyed one week before Christianity's most worshipped holiday, exactly one month from a senseless attack on a mosque in Christchurch (NZ), and the world is rushing to blame it on a "construction accident?"

If your point is that Masons and the Vatican don't place trust in gematria, I'll just let you continue your snoring.

#Breaking: Just in - French prosecutors are launching an extensive forensic research at the fire! Saying we cannot speculate just yet, what, who and how the fire has been caused at the iconic cathédrale Notre-Dame de #Paris. #NotreDame #France pic.twitter.com/Kozf7VWk9z— Sotiri Dimpinoudis ❁‏ (@sotiridi) April 15, 2019

#Update: WORLD EXCLUSIVE 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 ❁‏ (@sotiridi) April 16, 2019

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.— Sotiri Dimpinoudis ❁‏ (@sotiridi) April 16, 2019

Well so far no muzzie group has come forward. Usually after something like this they’d be out in the street yelling aloha snackbar or some such.

Yeah, but what an excellent strategy it would be to do the terrorist attacks and make them look like * accidents*.

That way, it wouildn't stir up the anti-muslim backlash that would otherwise come with a plethora of attacks KNOWN to be by muzzies.

That way, they can let a few terror attacks be known, and then play the martyr and victim when someone rightly exposes islam as being the cause.

They can accuse us all of *islamaphobia* all the while laughing at us behind our backs for being the naive suckers we tend to be.

THere have been twatter videos of a vigil outside Notre Dame with many French people saying the rosary, singing hymns, praying, and many on their knees.

I wonder if God sent a message. Obviously there’s a reason in His plan but I did wonder if it was because God was abandoned in France.

Have you ever read The Harbinger, by Jonathan Cahn?

I would say your wondering was more than a good guess.
