A massive fire has engulfed a 24 floor high rise called the Grenfell Tower fire in West London. Obviously the main focus is hoping people can survive this hell on earth. But with all the recent terrorist attacks in the UK, including London, one has to wonder. Is the Grenfell Tower fire terrorism? What caused the fire in the first place?

It’s obviously too early to know if terrorism is the cause of the Grenfell Tower fire. Regardless of the cause, this is just going to ad too an otherwise horrible month in London.
FIREFIGHTERS are battling an inferno which has engulfed a block of flats in Ladbroke Grove, West London.
Some residents are trapped inside the 24-storey tower, with some desperately shouting for help from windows on upper floors with neighbouring flats ablaze.
Shocked onlookers filmed the blaze as it tore through Grenfell Tower, a residential block in west London.
The Fire Brigade has confirmed that an evacuation is underway, and that two people had been treated at the scene for smoke inhalation.
Police are pushing people back from the area for fear the building will collapse as flaming debris falls from the tower.
George Clarke, a BBC presenter who lives in the building, told Radio 5 Live he was “getting covered in ash” as he fled the fire.
“I’m 100 metres away and I’m absolutely covered in ash,” he continued. “It’s so heartbreaking, I’ve seen someone flashing their torches at the top level and they obviously can’t get out.”
