On MAUI, Fires, and DEW - Part 2
My lovely friends have sent me more videos purporting that Maui was the victim of Directed Energy Weapons. I was almost fooled, but the proponents are so unresearched that I have to rebut, again.
This video presents as expert analysis, BUT…
I am certain that Robert Brame (the lifetime botanist interviewed in this video) is a forthright and committed human, but I can’t overlook his near religious conviction that THEY ARE DOING THIS! Since he only began his study of fires after Paradise, he skips over some very basic facts.
I too watched the videos of the fire captains he met with, who pointed out the anomalies of Paradise and Santa Rosa, but both of them are also suburbanites, dealing with residential fires, and not firestorms, which are becoming more regular. While I have no doubt that Maui was terribly (or purposefully) mismanaged, a brief view of history, as presented in my first essay, brings the focus back to the need to investigate that, not Space Lasers!!!
What evidence is there for DEWs?
Unlike the scamdemic, which has a huge and indisputable evidentiary trail, there is absolutely no evidence of Directed Energy Weapons, other than the proclaimed inexplicability of these fires. Brame’s conjecture, that these fires move in patterns and leave remnants that are impossible, that temperatures could not be reached, that only satellite mounted DEWs could generate them, and that secretive cleanup crews are disposing of the evidence, sound to me like paranoid religious zealotry. His belief that only three of the thirty-eight fire sites he has analyzed were “normal,” makes me wonder if those three were actually the ones that are anomalous. Or that he, a career botanist, just doesn’t know that much about fire.
What Does Fire Look Like?
Again, I dug in my heels about DEW around the Paradise fires because I couldn't find a single person commenting who had any depth of scientific knowledge, and looking back again to Oakland, I find his principal arguments are simply ignorant.…
You never see houses reduced to white ash - False
The trees could not survive - False
No house would be left standing - False
This is an aerial photo of the 1991 Oakland Firestorm. Notice the houses reduced to white ash, swaths of forest that are not visibly damaged, and intact houses between rows of completely destroyed ones. No Space Lasers, just sustained hot winds at the end of summer, uphill on a slot canyon. See my previous article for unmelted plastics.
Melting Aluminum
Robert claims that the melted aluminum (1,221F) and auto glass (~1,400F) prove that Maui was not a natural fire, but this article in Wildfire Today states that
”An average surface fire on the forest floor might have flames reaching 1 metre in height and can reach temperatures of 800°C (1,472°F) or more. Under extreme conditions a fire can give off 10,000 kilowatts or more per metre of fire front. This would mean flame heights of 50 metres or more and flame temperatures exceeding 1200°C (2,192°F).”
I spent less than 3 minutes on google to find all this information. How is it that Robert couldn’t do the same? Not that I think he has any motive, other than
TO BELIEVE IN AN INVISIBLE FORCE. THAT IS NOT SCIENCE!
Brame also claims that these fires were caused by the same thing that took down the World Trade Center, which, as any 9/11 aficionado (like myself) can tell you was nano-thermite, carefully installed over several months by the “ABC Elevator Company.” The temperature difference between aluminum slag from cheap car wheels and rivers of molten steel (>2,850°F) flowing from WTC for days is over 1,600 degrees Fahrenheit!
Are DEWs Real?
Of course they are, and the military is very proud of them!
Here is the GAO report on them. Notice that they create very narrow beams, and that they face challenges, such as these “Technological limitations. DEWs are generally less effective the farther they are from the target, and atmospheric conditions and cooling requirements can limit their effectiveness. For example, fog and storms can reduce laser beam range and quality.” (Not a good weapon in a hurricane, or smoke filled area)
What does Defense News have to say?
”“Lasers are complicated,” Lt. Gen. Daniel Karbler, the head of Space and Missile Defense Command, said at the symposium. “When you look at what you have to do to build a laser, and many of the main components... you’re not going to have a supply room or maintenance office full of repair parts.” (Especially IN SPACE!)
Read the Congressional Report, it’s full of renderings that make clear the obvious impossibility of satellite mounting, or this article in National Defense, which points out that “To destroy anti-ship cruise missiles would require a beam of 500 kilowatts and demand megawatts of power.” Try supplying that via solar panels!
What is a plausible explanation?
I would assume that we all agree that geoengineering is taking place, both on Maui and here in California. Given that Barium Sulfide is a primary constituent, the high flammability warning that accompanies it’s Safety Data Sheet should be taken into account. Not my field of expertise, but certainly plausible.
NOW, I am not saying that the new police chief is not a chaos agent, that his secretary was not murdered, or that planned arson is not a likelihood. In fact, all of the EVIDENCE points to that. These sort of plans generally go astray, and Lahaina would be a perfect example of a planned land grab executed by morons, with catastrophic results. THAT hypothesis does not require fantasizing about an all powerful space laser wielding government, and should be the first thing to investigate, IMHO.
Take action on what can be proven!
My heartfelt sorrow and sympathy to Maui’s lovely people. Mahalo
Peace
I can't seem to edit this article from my phone so let me continue here. I was out kayaking and thought about the argument that all of the boats in the harbor had sunk , so here's my research on that.
First off, Wikipedia says that fiberglass is... "non-magnetic, non-conductive, transparent to electromagnetic radiation..."
TRANSPARENT TO ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION!
That should be enough of a physics buzzkill for DEW subscribers, but as I paddled along the harbor, I realized that there must have been at least one full scale gas station on the water in Lahaina Harbor. What does that mean in terms of adding fuel to the fire?
A typical gasoline station has a storage capacity of 10,000 to 40,000 gallons. I would imagine that should be able to set off quite a few surrounding boats, and leave a flammable surface. In fact, 20,000 gallons could cover 10 acres in 1 inch of fuel (although it couldn't possible disperse that way).
So did all the boats melt? No, they don't have to. "Glass fabrics retain 50% of room temperature tensile strength at 370°C, 25% at 480°C..."
480°C is not much higher than the base temperature (800F) of such a fire, and far lower than the 1200 and above we are seeing in melting aluminum and glass.
With the wind creating a bellows effect, pushing fire and heat (that burned many people to death while they were in the water) these sustained temperatures could easily have deformed the hulls of every boat in the harbor. With the explosion and fire of Their Own gas tanks that would certainly be enough to sink them.
Investigate the arson!
