'If this is going to be a new face of warfare, where your enemies (foreign Al Qaeda or domestic ELF) are going to set fires in a coordinated way, we had better have contingency plans involving rapid response by the military assets already available in SoCal and elsewhere.'

Is this speculation? Was it terror set?

/1/ At least some of the fires were known to have been set by arsonists. See the police artist's drawing above.

/2/ ELF arsonists are extremely active in SoCal, proudly takeing credit for burning custom homes, apartment complexes, and SUV dealerships. They hate anywhere humans live on "natural" land, which is most of what has been burned.

/3/ Last week the FBI was searching for a pro-Palestinean Green Party radical who was seen unbolting power towers, in the days before these Santa Ana winds were forecast.

/4/ The FBI reports that Al Queda has plans to set massive forest and brush fires in the USA as a terror weapon.

Look at the fire maps of SoCal and ponder the coincidence of so many over so wide an area, even given Santa Ana winds. If this series of fires has nothing to do with terrorism, it certainly was compounded by arson, that's a known fact. Certainly we had BETTER PREPARE for these types of massive coordinated arson-terror events, Al Queda says they are going to do it, so we had better prepare for many more firestorms like these burning today.

Meanwhile, 100 Navy Seahawk helicopters are sitting idle, ten minutes from the fires.
