How do you know they are UFOs
You don't - end of story?
I am perfectly willing to accept the UFO explanation, I do believe many sightings are alien spacecraft. However, I believe you need to assume the ordinary and then prove the extraordinary. Sorry, but thousands of balloons were released the same day this was filmed. These white objects could easily be the balloons. Just because someone posts a video as a UFO sighting, doesn't mean they weren't mistaken in what they think they saw or they are lying.

Tens of thousands of protestors are taking to the streets of London, Madrid and other cities all over the world for the anniversary of the war in Iraq.
Thousands of balloons will be released to remember the people killed in the Iraqi war as well as the Madrid bomb attack victims.

Thousands of balloons were released in memory of those killed in the Iraq conflict, as well as the Madrid bomb attack victims.
Demonstrations have taken place in about a dozen towns around Spain with a large protest due to take place in the capital on Saturday evening.

It's NOT stars, stars wouldn't be moving around. Seriously, don't come here and scream stars...
The only reason i mentioned stars is because when you look at the night sky you prety much see what this guy has filmed on his cam here. Apart of course from the moving ones, but things do move in the night sky which are visble from earth.
You do see stars in the daylight, yeah ok maybe not usualy so many but you DO see them. So it's a possibility thats all. As i said though, maybe people with more of an astronomical background could expand on why this could not be stars.
Could you give reasons why they could'nt be stars apart from just that some are moving? I'm as baffled as anyone else here so any decent reasons for your comments would be most welcomed.

I agree that it's balloons. More likely filmed in 2004 during the peace demonstrations. The white balloons symbolise peace. I did a bit of searching and it's probably this: -

Just because balloons are released that day doesn't mean these are those balloons, in fact, I was just watching a documentary today about a UFO crash during the 60s in Kecksburg on the same day a comet AND a Russian spacecraft came falling out of the air, all three were seperate events.

If I posted a video like that and said it was an invasion of atomic shell-fish from Uranus would you believe just because I said it was?
Wouldn't you have some doubts before accepting what was posted?
And remember that Spain is not the US, there is not supposed to exist any government conspiracy to keep the UFOs out of pages of the newspapers

Well done ArMaP. This is conclusive proof for me and I knew a bit of searching would confirm it. I think we can leave this video to the trash heap now unless you're an idiot

Some of these explanations make me believe some people never saw daylight before.
And for those stating that we are idiots for not accepting they are balloons, get bent please, you're merely jumping to conclusions. 1 + 1 is not always 2.
We can't be sure what they are, but don't act all high and mighty trying to impose your belief on someone else mkay.
