From the site..."Water buffalos containing drinking water are located at Kula Fire Station, Kula Community Center, Rice Park and Crater Road – Hydrant 373."

Do water buffalos store water like camels?

To: left that other site

Obama’s estate is on the site where Magnum PI, and numerous legacy Hawaii 5-0 episodes, were staged. He had the original 1920s era buildings torn down for the sterile soulless building standing there now.

As you said Zuckerberg has beachfront property on Kauai. I remember the controversy when Mr Open Borders had a tall wall erected blocking the ocean view along his property from the hoi-poloi.

State Law in Hawaii says that the beaches are not to be blocked off from the public.

But laws are for the little people, obviously.

There may be more to this than local arsonists.

Think 1938 to 1945.

Japan created an island chain of defense in furtherance of the “ Asian co prosperity sphere”

This cut off major trade routes.

Now fast forward to the last decade with China basically copying that war plan with their artificial islands and recent acquisition of presence on Guadal canal , ect.

What was Japan’s next step in that war plan ?

An attack on the hawaian islands.

You do the math.

/\

Arson

Totally un preventable.

This was no ooops brush fire.

There was no lightening.

The only “ camping” campgrounds are on 2 beaches both within a mile of a firestation, both with a road that acts as a fire line,,, it wasn’t campfires that got out of control.

Multiple fire starts at the same time at ‘O dark 30 in the morning.

No one was mowing their lawn or useing a chainsaw in the dark.

Just Google

Hawaii arson.
