I was surprised but Fox News just spent a "few minutes" and not just a few seconds on UFO's. They showed the picture of that orange looking object taken in Arkansas and they are saying that the military is saying it was flares but even they didn't think so. They also talked about the Chicago incident and Brian Kilmeade (Fox and Friends) said he thought they were real UFO's.

I do notice that lately Fox has been talking a little longer on this subject when it comes up and it has come up a few times this year.

It was talked about a little more seriously with a little less joking and laughing.

I believe this is a good time for everyone to keep looking up and trying to get pictures and get them on the News if possible for it seems to be getting to be a hot item right now.

Sorry about starting this tread mods I know there was something somewhere here but I couldn't find it.

Do you have the clip on video please or know where a copy could be please?

I want to watch! Thanks!

I saw it also and they were actually pretty serious about it. Brian, one of the reporters even said that he thought it was a UFO and was talking about visitors from the milky way or something. The picture looked like different colored lights in the sky. They said on the news the military claimed it was flairs

I SAW IT TOO.

I definately got the impression that Brian believes that it wasn't a flair. The others also seemed to disbelieve the new cover story.

(that flair cover story was hoaky!)

They spoke about wanting the Colonel to come on FOX and discuss it. I hope they can get him on. And I hope that he hasn't been visted by the men in black yet.

Didn't you know? This is all part of gradual disclosure on the part of the controlled media that is now underway. Just wait and see what happens in a couple of years or so.

However, you may not be able to see an alien addressing the US senate in a hurry!! But I think things have started to happen. Check out the programs on THC, Discovery, NG and so on. The frequency of programs relating to UFOs, alien abductions, cattle mutilations, etc, etc, have increased.

Cheers!

Sometimes I cant decide if the spike in UFO sightings appearing on TV is credited to the news channels hunger to report everything and anything now days or if it is really coming to a head.

I don't know of any link, sorry.

I am going to have to check out a few other sites it seems that lately there are getting to be more reports from all states and countries lately.

I hope they do get this Colonel on but what surprises me is how we know Fox is censored and they let this get on.

Maybe things are going to get interesting.

with 2M candlepower, wouldn't an observer see the smoke and/or the parachute as well??

I'm not an expert in this .. but I'd think that the parachutes would be all lit up as well. Wouldn't the light be bounching off them?

I think the cover story of flairs is hoaky.

Flares? lol, that's total bull#. Like the guy above me said, the light would of been reflecting off the parachute canopy.

This Colonel was in the service for 32 years and has dealt with flares and he says they weren't flares. I wonder how long it will take the Military to get to him and shut him up, I wouldn't be surprised if his story changes.

Col Fields is quoted as saying "I did not know that such 'parachute flares' existed and never considered the possibility," Col. Fields told WND upon learning the reason behind the mysterious lights. "I am grateful, however, that the truth has been determined and those that may have been disturbed by this event will be able to rest."

If an F-16 pilot isn't aware of this type of ordinance, one has to question his ability as a pilot. Either he's lying about not knowing or the military is lying about the flares.

they already got to him... that broadcast was nice. I agree with another poster, its probably a part of some gradual disclosure. Wait till were done with Iran then its on to ET!

I smell ... the Men in Black ... someone definately got to him. I have no question in my mind at all. No one I have talked to, or heard on TV, buys the flare story.

Like the guy above me said,

I'm a girl.

I'm from Arkansas. Where were the UFO's reported??

I want to see it, sounds pretty cool.

well, i dont know anything about the flares used by fighters to throw off heatseeking missiles, so if those dont use parachutes then i guess it doesnt suprise me to see that he 'didnt know they exist'

now, the ones we used in the field to light up an area at night so we could more easily see what we were shooting at, THOSE had parachutes and if you werent a grunt you might not know that. (this was before night vision was standard issue. and in reality, we usually used them more to train for the common soldiers task of "react to overhead flare" so we'd have a sense of realism)

and yes, when you're underneath them, you can clearly see the chutes as they drop...from how far away you can still see the chutes, i cant say.

COULD it have been flares...sure, its POSSIBLE. but that would mean that there was an army unit on maneuvers in the area, and if there isnt a training area near there then the PROBABILITY is pretty low if not nonexistant.

so, being open minded, sure, it COULD be flares but theres an equal if not better chance it wasnt flares. and if it wasnt....then what was it?
