11,000 lightning strikes is quite a lot. Fires would be expected.
all the locals told me the fire was set by a cartels revenge buring another cartels illegal grow
I don't believe that that many fires could have been started by lightning more than two weeks ago, only to start burning in new places now.
If you were China and you wanted to sow havoc in the US, you'd look for weak points and plausible deniability.
Not that I'm certain of anything. Just very suspicious.
I was up in Big Sur last weekend where they have a huge fire, all the locals told me the fire was set by a cartels revenge buring another cartels illegal grow. Wouldn't be surprised if half the fires where due to cartel wars.
A man who set nearly a dozen wildfires in a Northern California national forest pleaded guilty Monday to being a serial arsonist.
Eric Michael Smith, 41, of Redding, entered guilty pleas to four counts of arson in a federal court in Sacramento but acknowledged setting other blazes in his plea agreement, according to the U.S. attorney's office.
Under the agreement, prosecutors will recommend no more than a 33-month sentence. Smith could have faced up to 20 years in prison if convicted of all charges.
Court documents indicated that between June 2019 and July 2020, Smith lit at least 11 fires in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest, many of them in the early morning hours.

TAOS, N.M., May 27 (Reuters) - Two blazes that grew into New Mexico's largest ever wildfire were both started by the U.S. Forest Service (USFS), the agency said on Friday, prompting the state's governor to demand the federal government take full responsibility for the disaster.
Forest Service investigators determined the Calf Canyon Fire was caused by a "burn pile" of branches that the agency thought was out but reignited on April 19, the Santa Fe National Forest said in a statement.

I would not be surprised if China is setting fires in the US. Possibly Russia, but China seems far more likely.
If you wanted to cause massive disruption and division, what would you do? Those three things. Easy weak points to exploit.
