A comment from an earlier thread alleged that Spanish policy says that forests that are destroyed due to fire don't have to be rebuilt, the land can be re-purposed. That's what's driving the arson in Spain.

I have no way to evaluate the veracity of this site, but https://inspain.news/spains-wildfire-tragedy-now-has-a-human... says:

> In some cases, arson is linked to economic gain: land clearance, insurance fraud, or disputes over grazing rights. Others are sparked by resentment towards environmental restrictions.

This narrative is part of the disinformation campaigns and smoke curtains that pour after the wildfires.

Is was a possibility in the past, but the current situation is different. More often than not, when we examine the coordinated internet rage bait about sinister projects to build in the burnt areas (solar farms, AI plants, etc...) this projects don't exist really. Houses will be simply rebuilt by their owners, no soil change expected.

More often than not, the people starting the rage bait post from a different country also.
