It's easier to burn down a house than to burn down a tree that's full of moisture.

Yes this picture is low res and doesn't prove much by itself, but there is a lot of evidence in favor of this theory if you look into it more. To those who are doubting-- do some more research on this before you claim this is BS. Car windows were melted, and aluminum rims completely melted into puddles. This requires temperatures of 1400 degrees celcius or more. Even green trees nearby would be completely burnt at these temperatures... yet we see cars with melted glass and rims right next to trees that are unscathed! In the remains of houses and other buildings, you can see steel beams that twisted and buckled, and all stone items like granite countertops are completely disintegrated. This doesn't happen at normal house fire temperatures. In some of these "forest fires" houses caught fire within seconds on after the other, while the standard theory about fires being spread by smoldering embers would require at least several minutes for a house to catch on fire from the embers.

From everything I've seen, some sort of device that targets and superheats metal objects was used to start the fires. Metal objects like cars caught fire and burned extremely hot, as did buildings which contained metal wiring and/or framing. Meanwhile purely organic objects like trees and plastic items did not burn unless they were in contact with the superheated metal. Some of the best evidence of this is in videos of the fires where you can see poles and roadside barriers that caught fire only where signs bolted onto them with metal bolts, with no scorching anywhere else. Also in Paradise CA they claimed the fire caused corrosion to all the pipes, requiring all the water pipes to be replaced-- how does a fire on top of the ground corrode metal pipes that are several feet underground? Some sort of weapon like a DEW (Directed Energy Weapon)-- really just a directed microwave beam, which does exist and the military has bragged about, could have been used to heat the metal in these areas causing the massive fires. It may seem farfetched but it makes more sense than a car being completely melted (remember, requiring 1400 degrees or more) while a tree right next to it is fine.

These pictures could be from weeks after the fire. Trees and plant life that does burn

will very quickly grow back whereas the house will not.

LIVE GREEN TREES DONT BURN.

Jesus how dumb are you.

It might have something to do with the fact that houses are built from composites these days.

this. It literally takes about 20 minutes for newer houses to become fully involved (when on fire) due to the cheap materials used these days.

How is anybody supposed to read that shit?

Can you post it in higher resolution?
