Some Thoughts On The Mystery Drones by Ms Caitlin Johnstone!

Listen to a reading of this article (reading by Tim Foley):

Okay I need to jot down some thoughts on the "mystery drone” thing because it’s way too interesting a story to ignore.

Okay I need to jot down some thoughts on the “mystery drone" thing because it is way too interesting a story to ignore.

For those who are not aware, since mid-November people have been sighting large drones all over the east coast of the United States, and what makes this so interesting is that the United States government is claiming they do not know anything about them. Do not know who owns them, where they are taking off from or where they are landing.

They are either lying or telling the truth about this, and either way it is a major story. Either the United States government is keeping secrets from the public about huge numbers of drones that have spent weeks flying over populated areas, or they somehow legitimately do not know what is going on with these sightings. Contemplating either of these possibilities should widen your eyes a bit.

And to be clear there really does appear to be something up there. Many of the sightings that are being reported are just the result of a fun news story causing people to look up from their smartphones into the night sky for the first time in years and see things they are not familiar with like planes and stars - but there are also large, hovering aircraft of uncertain origin.

The clearest footage I have seen of these mystery drones so far was presented by NewsNations Rich McHugh, who actually turned and pointed to one of the craft in the air behind him while reporting out of central New Jersey. It must have been fairly low down because they got a great shot of the thing; it had fixed wings and blinking lights like a plane, but was reportedly only eight to ten feet wide.

McHugh said he and his crew saw some 40 or 50 of the aircraft in the hour they were on location. He interviewed officers from the Ocean County Sheriffs Department, who told him the drones evade detection because they do not give off heat like normal drones, and that one vanished when they tried to pursue it with a police drone. A sheriff named Michael Mastronardy told McHugh that one of his officers reported seeing fifty of these drones flying in off the ocean all at once, after which the United States Coast Guard reported seeing a number of the same craft over the water.

Michael Tracey, one of the very few western journalists I have any respect for, went drone hunting and reported seeing "one mystery drone with all red lights, hovering quite low, and another with green and red lights, higher altitude, flying in a straight line."

"It was hovering. If that is a plane, I am a horses ass!" Tracey tweeted.

It is very possible that I could be afflicted with confirmation bias, as I was specifically out tonight to see if I could spot a mystery drone, but my best impression is I have never observed an aircraft like that hovering in the sky before, and it was definitely not a plane

So as far as I can tell this is a real thing and not mass hysteria resulting from large numbers of people suddenly looking up and misinterpreting the lights they are seeing.

But what is it?

As of this writing we are not getting any answers from the United States government. The White House, FBI and DHS are all saying that they do not assess that the mystery drones have a foreign nexus or pose a threat to national security, but that they also have no idea what they are.

All three departments have released statements saying that "many of the reported sightings are actually manned aircraft, operating lawfully," which sounds intentionally obfuscatory because obviously there are going to be many reports from people misidentifying normal aircraft thrown into the mix, and this is completely irrelevant to all the reported sightings which do not fit that description.

White House spokesman John Kirby was grilled by Fox News Martha McCallum on the lack of answers on this front, adamantly insisting that he knows absolutely nothing about where these things are coming from or what they are up to.

"I am telling you we do not know," Kirby said. "We know people are afraid of it. We know people have concerns. We have those same concerns."

New Jersey congressman Jeff Van Drew attempted to sell the idea that what people are witnessing are drones from an Iranian "mothership" which is hanging out off the east coast of the United States, a claim which the Pentagon unambiguously shot down as false. Iran does indeed have ships which carry drones, but obviously the United States war machine knows where those ships are located at all times because satellites are a thing.

But aside from Iranian motherships and mass hysteria, it does not look like there is much we can cross off the list right now as to what these things could be. I would imagine if the United States government knew they were a foreign threat they would be doing everything they can to sound the alarm and roll out the war machinery, so maybe we can rule that out too.

Other than that, who knows? The United States government is either knowingly lying to the public about its own UAVs or those of a United States defense contractor, or it somehow legitimately does not know what these aircraft are, who they belong to, or where they are taking off from and where they are landing.

It is hard to imagine how the latter scenario could possibly be the case after all these weeks with all the technology the worlds most powerful government has at its disposal for monitoring objects in the sky - but that does not necessarily mean it is not true.

For now, I myself am content to not know.

It is not often we get to enjoy major news stories about a complete mystery these days, so I am going to relish this one while the mystery lasts.

With all the dark, ugly things that we do know about what is going on in our world, it is nice to have a big strange question mark hovering around in the air for a bit.
