Did a meteor cause the Colorado wildfires?

l Qaida has urged Muslims to torch forests as part of the Islamic war against the West. Al Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula has called on followers to set fires in forests in enemy states as part of what the network termed holy war.

Oh for Gawd's sake!! Those ter'rists are responsible for absolutely everything! I'll bet they're responsible for bumble bee deaths too.

I KNEW THEY WERE!!!! ;)

Many fires are man made (in fact, the majority), big corporations that wanted the terrain for doing constructions, etc. In Spain is very normal to see fires of that type. And some fires, and I remember one in Los Angeles some years ago, was started by a .... fireman. There is a very interesting book wrote by an ex-cop (Joseph Wambaugh that is now a detective writer but also who writes some non fiction books), that wrote this book about this extraordinary fire that burned many, many houses in Los Angeles: Fire Lover: A True Story (2002, nonfiction).

Well over here in Dalmatia we had some serious, summer like, forest fires during winter and now flora is very dried due to 2/3 heat waves in row. There are a lot of attractive terrains for construction vultures/investors (domestic and foreign) who just can't wait to put their greedy pawns in action - and they are so agog that EU is giving money away just to hasten us to bring land register in order....
