Greece, in flames

26greece550
Here is an image of Greece from space. Pictured are some some of the fires that are currently burning up the country.
I can't really describe the anger, and sadness, that this situation makes me feel. Whole villages have been burned off the map, people are losing their lives, property, livelihoods and precious forrest land. 150 fires started in three days, and it's suspected that all this is due to arson. Honestly, I don't know wtf is wrong with people. This year happens to be an election year, and you know that politicians will use this for political gain - I hope they don't, but I suspect they will.
