While I won’t believe that al Qaeda/local jihadists are involved in the fires until there is proof, I doubt that the government would tell us if they were unless al Qaeda took credit for it first. Having a vivid imagination from my military service and later operating in a major construction environment, I, as well as my associates, can imagine scenarios that would frighten the ordinary citizen. Our open and free society has little protection from those setting forest fires or worse; especially if the perpetrators do not have a survival criterion in their plans. I am amazed that we have gone so long without a major attack on our country. We owe a great deal of thanks to our police, FBI and Homeland Security; thanks they rarely receive.
