Gee, were they the same "thousands" celebrating in the streets of Jersey City on 9/11 that Trump is the only one who claims to have seen and that there is otherwise NO credible evidence of them ever existing?

that's because you act like if your media outlets didn't cover it, it didn't happen.

The French Police and Fire Service investigators have a 50 stong team to investigate what is being deemed a long and compex investigation.
However the chances of someone starting a roof top tower when workmen are already there are fairly slim, and the police will be looking at CCTV and for any witnesses.
Notre Dame is also not the first cathedral or old building to have a fire, and in the past quite a few historic buildings and artefacts have needed to be restored, however it's always upsetting to see an historic building ablaze.

Other officials have suggested it could be linked to extensive renovation works taking place at the cathedral.

FYI....There were no workers at the time of the fire!
Yeah...how could we possible blame those wonderful and peaceful Muslims celebrating in the streets of Paris shouting Allahu Akbar while Notre Dame burned.
You mean without any proof whatsoever that anyone purposefully caused the fire at the Cathedral?

What's even more telling that there seems to be a cover up already in play is that they immediately said this is an accident without a second of investigation. If this was terrorism the French being the wussies they are about that stuff won't say anything to inflame the Islamists there and cause a real religion war.

Even if there were not workmen, old buildings often dfon't have readily available electric supplies and workmen have to rig up units and supplies using cables in order to work on buildings, and this is sometimes the cause of fires.
Furthermore Cathedrals usually have security, indeed in England Cathedrals sometmes have their own small police departments such as York Minster Police, whilst others have a close working relationship with local police and fire services and all have security in place including guards, cameras and alarms.
The Mackintosh Building in Glasgow was being restored after a fire in 2014 when last year contractors repairing the building managed to set it alight again causing even more damage, and the entire building will now have to be rebuilt.
The famous York Minster Cathedral in the UK was restored after a fire in 1984, and they used new materials and methods in order to make sure it never happens again.
Windsor Castle was also restored after a fire in 1992. Windsor Castle even has it's own dedicated fire brigade as well as the local Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service and the Queen's residences are protected by both specialist armed police and the military.
There are thankfully a lot of very clever and talented people in terms of such restorations and companies that specialise in such restorations and replace the buildings with fire resistant materials and fire systems, as well as new electrics.
Ithink I will wait until the conclusion of the French Police and Fire Service investigation before jumping to any conclusions.

If the workers had been there, they would have noticed the smoke, so it is unfortunate they had already departed. Obviously a spark from welding was smoldering in the attic, and later burst into flames.
You sound like you know for sure that was the cause. That wood was over 800 years old, who would use welding tools near old dry wood? You could be right and that would be a stupid mistake to make but you and I don’t know if it was a accident or set on purpose. Please don’t act like it was obviously a mistake. You do not know.
