As NdT said in another interview:

"I wish we had better evidence than monochrome fuzzy navy videos. We upload six billion high resolution color photos and videos to the internet everyday. I want better evidence than that. And just because you don't know what it is, doesn't mean you then know what it is".

Especially the last sentence is deeply philosophical, formulated in a way that everyone should be able to understand :alien:

I think it's kind of the other way around. It's not that "every UFO footage is fuzzy mess". It's "Every fuzzy mess of a footage can be interpreted as an UFO". :LOL:
If we had a high def footage, it would no longer be UFO because we would be able to see what it is. :)

Funnily enough most armed forces frown on people taking high res images of operations. Unless of course you're a certain ex European empire denying your soldiers and main battle tank that you never supply to anyone is annexing some territory even though your soldiers are posting geotagged pictures of it all over the net showing they are where they're not supposed to be. ;)

The only real question why it is being made a story recently.

Well... that and how on earth did the US Navy miss the obvious on the first few videos it released publicly last year. Then I realized it's a "damned if you do, damned if you don't" situation. There was no proverbial "win condition" here. FOIA means it will likely get out to the public... eventually. There's a sizable segment of the population that is absolutely convinced that the government is hiding the existence of alien visitors, and will immediately dismiss any official explanation as a coverup... especially if there might be multiple explanations for something (ex: the GOFAST video and whether it's a balloon or a large seabird) or such an explanation might require divulging classified information.

This very much feels like the US Navy is releasing these videos and saying, "Here's a 'mystery.' Let's see what you make of these?" See what the public knows about their equipment, and what we can deduce about said equipment. They may know what these are likely to be, and are seeing what the public will make of it. They may not have done a proper analysis of these, and are relying on the public to do their work for them.

That one and some of the others were completely debunked byThunderf00t (and others) on Youtube. The only question is why the US government is releasing all these fake stories. The blob over the sea is a goose, the dark blob that dunks into the sea iss the setting sun in infra-red, the saucer shaped black one is an ordinary F14 or similar in infra-red, and the green triangles are an ordinary aeroplane at night and other lights through an out of focus camera. If a bloke on Youtube can figure it out, what does that say about CIA, NASA, DHS, etc.?

I didn't see more than 37 seconds of the first video, but the "pyramid" shaped objects seems to be a result of bokeh. This arises when you defocus a camera optic that contains an iris. The iris will create a polygonal shape, like a hexagon:

If you defocus a pinpoint lightsource (like one far away) through a hexagonal iris you get bokeh that is hexagonal. Notice that the edge of the bokeh is still very sharp:

Now if you replace the hexagonal iris with a triangle one, you get something that a conspiracist might interpret as a "pyramid" shape.

Next... :alien:

Can be, I guess with the Formidine Rifters and Cannon unemployed, they see the potential to tap the talent. :)

Yea, I remember the Navy videos were debunked quite a while ago.
Why they are still being "promoted" no idea... but it could be misdirection. :unsure:
