This looked bad right from the beginning and as the days go by it looks even badder.
If there is any blame to pin, it seems very difficult to find the correct donkey. Climate change? Incorrect development? Political incompetence? There are numerous possibilities. I guess it's just a combination of all that, but then you have to wonder about the victims. How many of them moved into areas that they knew were reckless? How many didn't bother to get proper insurance? How many were fooled by the authorities into moving into areas that were not safe because they were told "it is perfectly safe."
This happens in every country, sometimes for fires, other times for floods or earthquakes, but this is once again an "American sized" event. The POTUS doesn't not seem to have talked about it much because his advisors probably managed to convince him that he shouldn't say "We have the best fires! No other country has fires as big as ours! I had an idea for these Democrat fires before anybody else, because I am brilliant. There are no mailboxes left for them to send in their fraudulent absentee ballots." Etc.
On the French news tonight, they opened with the same scenes as on the video below, except that the French television crew also filmed an orange cat sitting the the middle of the street mewing its heart out, hungry and thirsty and wondering what had happened to its house and its family.
