Could this be more shit stirring ahead the the bill to ban DJI drones, trying to rattle the Gen Pop, who knows these days.

To answer that question, I think you need to ask yourself if the US government and some of itâs agencies can be trusted to be telling the truth in their statements on this and other matters. The CIA, not historically known for playing strictly off a straight bat, have at least come out and stated that there is no Iranian âmother shipâ off the Eastern Seaboard.
I am coming to the belief that these really are big quatcopter drones, not simply normal aircraft in a very busy area, and there are âmystery factorsâ that make this a very good news story. In particular the dronesâ apparent habit of switching their lighs off when they are spotted. How do they know they have been âspottedâ?
Most likely they are big quadcopter UAVs operated by some official US body that doesnât want to advertise the fact, but in that case why have the lights on in the first place? Whoever is operating them could be flying legally and unlit at 400â and for the most part not be even heard on the ground, but they seem to be lower than that and advertising their presence.
At least nobodyâs blaming hobbyists; our consciences are clear!
I know this guy talks at a 1000 mph but hereâs billy Kyleâs thoughts on this I see pop up earlier,

Have you a link to where the CIA were officially quoted stating this? Youâll find the FBI, not the CIA have the counterintelligence lead within the United States.
You got any evidenceâŚâŚno

Saw an interesting video from Blancolario on these drone sightings and there were some interesting points.
Drones sighted were above 400â, not to say a hobbyist couldnât do this.
Yes, lights were on, if they didnât want to be seen, just turn them off.
He showed a clip where a Gov member was complaining about the minimal budget set aside for action against these types of drone âattacksâ on American soil.
Also showing that the timing is prescient with the bill being renewed through congress very shortly.
It is all very interesting and the timing is very suspect and feels manipulated.
Juan also explains that under federal law aircraft cannot be just shot out of the sky wiily nilly even if suspected as spying, that would explain that with all the so called sightings, none have yet been caught.
He did say that the drones seem to be flying a controlled pattern, like surveying and doing this from 5pm til midnight, my wonder here is if they have been observed for long enough to see this pattern, why have they not been intercepted by US military drones and possibly followed back to their home point?

at least they are honest and made an official public statement.
⌠do you think the Gatwick investigation team may make a similar statement⌠err no!

it made it to the Saturday (today) 8am radio 4 news as a hot topic ⌠seems they have not seen the official statement ⌠and the media circus goes on.
Iâve got to ask⌠are we sure itâs not UFOs? I mean before the advent of drones (multi rotor aircraft)⌠it would have been ufos⌠and given apparently there was a sighting the size of a US SCHOOL BUS!!! FFS!!! got to be a UFO.
and there was a drone flying in a grid patten from something like 5/6pm until midnight⌠wow that is some battery storage capacity for a flight time
why does it always need to be news worthy if itâs a drone incident
Another case of mass hysteria then, who would have thought 
Makes great content for the TikTok generation I guess.
Just wish the âapology we got it wrongâ was shouted a bit louder too.

Worth remembering, I think, that the US has been subjected to devastating surprise attacks from enemies twice in the last 100 years, at Pearl Harbour and a co-ordinated air attack on 9/11 (which would have been visible from much of New Jersey). Fear of such attacks is a deep-rooted part of their national psyche, and there will be an element of âhowever fearful you are, itâs not fearful enoughâ, Such people are going to be sensitive to anything that they could possibly percieve as a threat especially if they canât explain exactly what it is they are seeing, and prone to mass hysteria.
More comments, I hesitate to call them facts are emerging. The whatevertheyares can respond to investingating drones by flying away from them at unchaseable speeds, and do not give off heat signatures to the investigating dronesâ equipment. They were reported earlier as being able to apparently turn their lights off when obseved, which begs the question of why the lights were on in the first place if they were engaged in anything dodgy, but thatâs not how Americans think.
Americans will assume by default that there is a cover-up going on if their official sources statements do not tally with what they believe. They are believing their own eyes; there are undoubtedly things in the sky which are lit in various ways, and with the confusing messages from authorites (ranging from âno drones/no threat to safety to swarms of 6â wingspan UAVs from an Iranian âmothershipâ off the coast) an explanation is needed to calm things down and return to rational thought processes.
Possibilities:-
,Letâs discount aliens, please.
.US government agency âblackâ operatirons.
.Criminal activity likely connected to drug importing,
.Normal aircraft.
.Legally flown drones.
.Free-floating balloons.
A Chinese national flew a drone near an airbase in California; the drone was detected and he was arrested trying to catch a plane to China. Ergo, such activity does occur and it can be detected and appropriate action taken. Therefore, these whatevertheyares are probably not spy drones.
It made me laugh when they sent up the DJI America

Iâve been following this subject, watching every news report, and in every case the video shown is easily identifiable as general aviation, or Jupiter, and even car headlights on a hillside.
Though what do I know? Apparently the Republican Senator for New Jersey has it on utmost confidence from secret spy squirrels that thereâs an Iranian âMothershipâ anchored off the Eastern Seaboard launching drones at the USA, and he urges all citizens to take up arms and shoot them down.

Iâm sure the Senator for Noo Joisy will be delighted when a drone the size of a dinner table, quite probably in flames if itâs shot down, kills one of his constituents. There is a valid reason that shooting drones down, even if they are âenemyâ or with hostile intent, is illegal except over military establishments where they know how to deal with this sort of threat.
I put it to you, sir, that the Senator for Noo Joisy is, in fact, a bit of an idiot, even by Republican President-elect standards.
The situation currently so far as I can make out is that anyone looking upwards anywhere in the New Jersey or New York City area at night and seeing lights in the sky will immediately assume it to be a drone, even when it is much more likely to be a normal aircraft. Normal aircraft in holding patterns waiting for runway space at airports will follow each other and look as if they are operating in conjunction with each other; they might even look as if they are flying a grid, all features that have been mentioned by witnesses, but nobody is goin to be looking for normal aircraft while this panic is on!
Yep, Americans are basically scared of their own shadows.
Historically all empires eventually collapse one way or another, I think we are watching this one play out in real-time, the next few years are going to be very interesting.

It will be interesting to see if these things are still up when it snows or rains, and the wind picks up, because most drones would not be able to stay up in that type of weather, i know that some are up for ages, and most drones would not be able to stay up for that length of time. Some videos i have seen i personally think are aircraft coming to land and are in a stacking formation one behind the other, also one i have seen is a space rocket taking off. If you check this link out 20mins into video and 26 mins into same video
my money on et
8-10ft⌠and they ainât shot one down yet in a gun toting us of a?
i can imagine that ammunition sales are through the roof⌠every time Americans get worried about something they buy more ammunition.
Another take on this with 51 drones which he then goes on to mention about the DJI Drone Ban I guess one could argue the scaremongering kinda makes sense that he mentions.
