The Los Angeles fires, which have destroyed large mansions in Malibu and Hollywood, as well as film sets, have unleashed many rumors about how they were caused. Videos could show that they were provoked, although the official version is that it was something fortuitous
The first to speak out was Mel Gibson, who on Fox News did not hesitate to lash out at the government, even accusing it of causing the fire. He first revealed his suspicions on Joe Rogan’s podcast: “When I got home, sure enough, it wasn’t there. I’ve never seen a fire that complete. Obviously it’s devastating, it’s emotional. I lived there for about 15 years, so it was my home.”
Aiming directly at California Governor Gavin Newsom: “In 2019, I think Newsom said, ‘I’m going to take care of the forest and maintain it’ and do all that kind of stuff. I think all our tax dollars probably went to Gavin’s hair gel. It’s sad. The place is on fire.”
Later, on television, he said: “I know they’ve been playing with the water, emptying the reservoirs for one reason or another, and they’ve been doing it for a while. When these things happen, you wonder: is it intentional?“
Antonio Banderas’ response to Mel Gibson
In contrast, the opinion of Antonio Banderas, the Spanish actor is at the antipodes in terms of beliefs with Mel Gibson. He explained the situation at the annual gala of the Academy of Performing Arts at the Calderon Theater in Valladolid.
“We are living in times when we do not know what is true and what is false,” he began. He then went straight to Gibson’s words: “People speculate about anything. From the fact that they have been radiated by new weapons launched by an enemy, whose names are not mentioned, to aliens, through everything else,” he said.
