RAW: Aerial footage of once-vibrant town of Lahaina reduced to rubble

From watching the news the last two days, there was another fire in the Kula area and must fire resources were devoted to that issue. But you have to understand that there is just not the same resources available on these Islands. It doesn't mean they lack training, skills or equipment. But unless you live in the open spaces of the Mid-West, you likely have several close-by cities that could assist your local FD in an emergency. But when you factor in the extremely high (and very rare) winds then all bets are off. There have been several similar fires in CA that were affected by strong winds. People really need to get educated on what public services can and cannot do. Please protect yourself and your family by preparing for natural disasters. The Red Cross can only do so much, and the Govt: only a fool depends on them for help.

This destruction looks very similar to that done by the fires in northern California five years ago. Those flames were ultimately blamed on PG&E who agreed to pay out billions for having their power lines too close to trees. Rubbish IMO. Look at the evidence. Napa Valley rarely records winds above twenty five mph but on that night rogue winds had sustained gusts of up to seventy mph. Now let's look at Lahaina. Maui's summer season traditionally has winds from the south. In this case raging winds from the north blew with sustained gusts of fifty mph fanning the fires toward the waterfront. In most structure fires, most often sections of buildings remain standing. Most all of the houses and buildings destroyed in these fires end up as layers of white ash on their foundations. No plumbing, appliances or marble counter tops. Just a fine powdery ash. In northern California, many fire chiefs firmly declare in testimony that these fires are unusual in origin and impact, like nothing they've seen before in their careers. I'm making the case for directed energy weapons fired with laser precision from aerial platforms of several types. We're at war folks. The enemy is our own government and they don't care anymore if you happen to notice.

At the 1:23 mark one house with a shed intact this was an energy weapon that did this

Y'all have never seen a wildfire happen. My neighborhood burned down in 2007 with a few random homes still standing. This is normal. Not sure why people are so intrigued by the trees still standing either. This is normal... trees are living things with lots of water inside. Try burning a freshly cut log versus a seasoned log. Last thing these poor people need are inconsiderate conspiracy pushers.

[@SilentKnight43]

Soul-crushing. The footage of the traffic jam along the coastal road with all the vehicles burned out made me shudder. What happened to those possibly caught fleeing in traffic?

[@littlemilkjug2130]

All that water around the island and they couldn’t put out the fire??

Exactly

You're not a fireman? True? 🤔 But ask any fireman, he will surely explain to you why putting out a fire in a strong wind is extremely difficult. 😕

Tragic…..I want to know how the fire started. Strong winds alone don’t start a fire. This should be invested.

they ain't saying for a reason.

[@jimrylander9143]

@@ShaglusZ maybe they can review some satellite footage from that day. Pretty quiet about how it started. You would think they would have a team of arson investigators out there.

[@ShaglusZ]

@@jimrylander9143 agreed. did you see the how the quebec canada fires started? saw the satellite, clear morning all of a sudden, at many different points, fires erupt out of nowhere all over! seen it with paradise too. usually done in the dark as was the case in maui and paradise. ya, quiet about the start. and those winds are manufactured, the hurricane was far away, they look exactly like the thomas fire in cali winds, the put high pressure on low and bam, it's crazy. i'm sure they'll do their own investigation. cheers man....

So sad. My deepest condolences go out to the families of those that perished and those that were injured. Homes and businesses can be rebuilt, but not a human life. I’ve been there several times and loved it, now, it’s all gone.

[@mlamber7780]

@@PeteDavidson-yl3ps Well, aren’t you thoughtful, kind and considerate? And all the people that died? What about them? Our lives can change in the blink of an eye as we’re seeing so often now with all these world tragedies. These are all signs of the times … the End Times just like Jesus warned us in Matthew 24:4-8. And Jesus is coming back soon just like he promised. John 3:16 is the simplicity of salvation. The key word is believe! Because eternal lives do matter!
