“One Water” Approach Led to Deaths on Maui

Guest Post by Martin Armstrong

Climate change zealots are destroying our society. I mentioned how Maui suffered the repercussions of Biden’s America-Last policies after they received mere breadcrumbs compared to a much larger payment to Ukraine that same week. Hawaii Commission on Water Resource Management (CWRM) deputy director M. Kaleo Manuel is responsible for multiple deaths amid the Maui fires. You see, Manuel believes in a “One Water” approach where water is sacred and should be used sparingly, including in the case of a massive fire.

Manuel’s page on the Obama Foundation’s website notes: “Kaleo is the Deputy Director of the State of Hawaii Commission on Water Resource Management. He believes that ancient wisdom and traditional ecological knowledge of native peoples will help save the Earth. Kaleo is passionate about elevating native and indigenous ways of knowing in all spheres of discourse and dialogue.”

Firefighters in Lahaina, Hawaii, stated that the fire hydrants were basically empty on the day the fire erupted. “Fighting fire for their lives, getting overrun, trying to have a captain they are trying to get out to a burn center, hydrants aren’t working, that’s no different from cops being in a gunfight without bullets,” Frank Lima, secretary-treasurer of the International Association of Fire Fighters, described.

Kaleo Manuel did not immediately respond to the request to refill the reservoirs. Instead, he told the firefighters on the frontlines to discuss the matter with a local farmer to see how diverting the supply would impact him. People were burning alive and Manuel thought perhaps it was not fair to use the water so recklessly. “We can share it [water], but it requires true conversations about equity,” Manuel said in a poorly aged clip.

The World Economic Forum released an article in March: “Our relationship with water is political, says this climate scientist.” The “expert” claims that human’s relationship with water changed a century ago as “the promise of the modernist world was to separate us, to emancipate us from nature.” Equity is the keyword used again here. Everyone should have equal access to water. In global elite lingo, that means that we, the people, the Great Unwashed plebians, cannot manage our water, and it must be allocated to us in rations.

There is actually a dystopian Korean movie on Netflix regarding this matter where everyone has a water allotment provided to them by the government based on their social credit score. Sadly all these dystopian films seem to foreshadow of the future. The climate zealots will cheer EQUITY and willingly give all power to the government so they can distribute the basics of what we need to survive. Lives could have been saved in Hawaii if the government had allowed the fire department access to WATER.

Admittedly, as someone who knows jack shit about firefighting, since Lahaina is ocean front, wouldn’t it make sense to have some sort of pump system setup to use the water in the ocean to fight a fire? Or is salt water sacred too.

It woulda helped not to have DEW’d it into existence in the first place, just to create the first US 15-min city, plus to make the billionaires’ lairs into protected compounds.

There goes the neighborhood.

Water has long been one of the main goals of the control freaks. They are steadily working on controlling all water. I cannot believe most farmers, rancher, orchardists, etc. can’t see this.
People have concentrated on the food thing but growing food needs water- and more.

Here the tribes (their corrupt Indian leadership with passive/unaware members) are being orchestrated into a major water control move, though it started with obscure legislation awhile back. They are now going into overdrive.

Gee wally would you look at that, another breakdown in administration….just like Eud said.

It was a perfect storm of few if any taking responsibility to fire harden their own properties, the utility not maintaining its equipment, the fire department not realizing the fire they had been fighting since 7 am might get out of control when the daily afternoon hot winds arrived, the water guy refusing to use potable water, a warning text, rescinded, then never sent when it mattered, and of course the normal behavior of a Wildfire Urban Interface fire.

Anonymous Conservative today….

It kind of makes it look like maybe they were trying to trap and kill everyone, either so they could buy up their land cheap once they were dead, or maybe even as some kind of sacrifice, if these are really some sort of occultists we are dealing with. We are entering the end stages here. We now have a CIA-like intel operation, running a Stasi-like civilian infiltration/surveillance operation, which appears to have rolled out military grade tech in a controlled operation to burn an entire town to death, because the little people there were in the way of the elites who want the island – and only destroying their homes would not be “convenient” enough. They needed those people to die too.

A part of me has been wondering, how the fuck did all these people die in the Maui fires? A woman telling this firsthand account of the Maui fires claims after the main roads were rendered impassable by downed wires and telephone poles from a strange, sudden, dry hurricane, and as described below, Police blockaded other roads leading out on orders of command (ie the Las Vegas shooting incident commander ordered cops to block people in), GPS cut out, which prevented people from finding the little alternative evac routes they needed to get out. I thought that sounded strange, as GPS is a satellite based system, which was not dependent on anything on the island. If your car had GPS, there was no reason for it to go down. But this article seems to confirm the sudden high winds, and the loss of GPS, which you would think would always work, unless somebody was jamming the satellite signals with military grade jamming equipment, like you would see deployed in a warzone to prevent cruise missiles from using GPS to guide themselves to their targets. A boat which was forced to navigate out of the harbor without its GPS here (and boat GPS should work out in the ocean, but it was not there near Maui during the fires). Another person who noticed they didn’t have GPS here. The only way I see GPS failing is if it was jammed, and the only reason I would see it being jammed is to prevent people from finding alternative evacuation routes once the power structure blocked all the main roads out. Notice the woman in the first article almost got trapped, but they were locals and knew of a small road that led to the other side of the island, which nobody else could find once GPS went down. It kind of makes it look like maybe they were trying to trap and kill everyone, either so they could buy up their land cheap once they were dead, or maybe even as some kind of sacrifice, if these are really some sort of occultists we are dealing with. We are entering the end stages here. We now have a CIA-like intel operation, running a Stasi-like civilian infiltration/surveillance operation, which appears to have rolled out military grade tech in a controlled operation to burn an entire town to death, because the little people there were in the way of the elites who want the island – and only destroying their homes would not be “convenient” enough. They needed those people to die too.

A party is coming. Everything points to it. But we need everyone to know about the surveillance first. There will be no Paul Revere this time around. Each of you needs to be America’s Paul Revere this go around. No one person can do this. We need to do it as a team. Your life, and the lives of your children and families may depend upon it. Tell everyone, every day, all the time. If we pull that off, we all, and this site, will be in the history books, just like Paul Revere. Zero doubt. We will save this nation, and we will become immortal, most of all, in the hearts of our kind who we freed, throughout all of time.

The first rule of fire fighting is that fire doesn’t always do what you expect.
Fires can make their own weather.
We had an example south west of Spokane yesterday….And continuing.
A fire of about 500 acres EXPLODED to 3000 acres almost immediately near and in Medical Lake called the “Grey Fire”.
On the Continent, all fires are named like Hurricanes.
The fire jumped I-90 going in a southeasterly direction toward Cheney.
The wind has shifted to making it now go in a more southerly direction.
This morning I saw that it is at more than 9,500 acres.
Summers in this area are tinder dry in July and August.
I can not understand the Hawaiian Islands becoming so dry.

I can not understand the Hawaiian Islands becoming so dry.

It has to do with prevailing winds and the sun.

Been outside all day clearing out years of organic debris that had built up around the property.
Filled 23 large trashbags.

Got my 0 area clear.
My 5 foot is getting better as is my
30 foot area.
Got more to do.

After reading all the preventive tips, I walked around my property and noticed many things needing attention.

Dear Admin,
How about a wrap up article addressing all the early wrong conclusions in Lahaina combined with all the as yet known failures of both citizen and government, and wrap it up with actual helpful advice:
•”here is how you can make your home more safe in a wildfire”
•”How to recognize wildfire dangers”
•”Have a grab and go emergency bag with important stuff”
•Working with neighbors to clear shared property lines.

Sections on preventive actions to take BEFORE ONE IS IN A CRISIS.

Just a suggestion,
Peace.

The water or the DEW?
