<\/p>\n
For weeks, now, a mystery has been hovering over the New Jersey skies, as hundreds of sightings of mysterious car-size drones are recorded nearly every day.<\/p>\n
A sense of frustration is widespread after the Pentagon failed to properly address the issue.<\/p>\n
Officials have so far admitted that the craft are very sophisticated, \u2018becoming undetectable once a police drone or helicopter gives chase\u2019.<\/p>\n
There is also the fact that the drones hover in one place for hours longer than civilian versions are capable of.<\/p>\n
New York Post<\/a>\u00a0reported:<\/p>\n \u201cAuthorities \u2014 from [New Jersey] Gov. Phil Murphy to the FBI \u2014 continue to insist that there is no danger from the drones, but also claim they have no idea what the drones are.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n The first question to bug people is: why New Jersey?<\/p>\n The answer appears to be: Picatinny Arsenal, an US Army weapons research and manufacturing facility in Wharton.<\/p>\n \u201cMany [locals] are suspicious Picatinny might be the source of the drones \u2013 and that the military knows exactly what they are but won\u2019t say.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Of course, the Picatinny Arsenal itself started complaining about the drones, which could be a way to divert attention.<\/p>\n But the ongoing show of the big objects flying in formations about 50 feet in the air, flashing red, green, and white lights, can hardly be ignored.<\/p>\n \u201cLocal officials told The Post they tend to agree with that explanation \u2014 and suggest many sightings farther afield could be either civilian copycats flying their own drones or people mistaking planes, helicopters or satellites for UFOs.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Read:\u00a0Drones Reported in at Least 11 New Jersey Counties \u2013 FOX News Host Captures Footage from Her Yard (Video)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n This explanation seems to cover all bases, but yesterday (12) Rep. Jeff Van Drew (R-NJ) scrambled the cards when he came public with the bombastic claim that the drones could be \u2018Iranian technology deployed from a *mothership* stationed off the east coast.\u2019<\/p>\n The House member says he had \u2018highly reliable\u2019 sources with \u2018top security access.\u2019<\/p>\n \u201c\u2019These drones should be shot down\u2019, he told Fox News in an explosive appearance, adding that \u2018the military is on full alert with this\u2019.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n The Pentagon was quick to rebuke Van Drew\u2019s claims, saying there was \u2018no evidence\u2019 the drones belonged to a foreign adversary.<\/p>\n \u201c\u2019There is no Iranian ship off the coast of the United States, and there\u2019s no so-called mothership launching drones towards the United States\u2019, a representative told reporters \u2014 then proceeded on to other topics without providing any insight on what they could be.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n State authorities complain they have been left \u2018shackled\u2019 because the drones fall under federal jurisdiction.<\/p>\n \u201cThe FBI, meanwhile, continues to claim they have no idea where the drones are coming from, while insisting there is no danger.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n One very reasonable opinion, by State Police Col. Patrick Callahan]: \u2018If it was another government agency they would have shared that information with him\u2019.<\/p>\n At this point, we are prepared to expect any kind of incompetence from the ending Joe Biden Administration from Hell, but there\u2019s the fact that incoming 47th Donald J. Trump is already receiving classified briefings, and either he or Vance, Musk or another ally would have blasted Dems for allowing enemy ships to hover unimpeded.<\/p>\n There is an interesting bit here, in a\u00a0previous report<\/a>, where Elon Musk talks about UFOs, but is extremely applicable to this case of Unidentified Flying Drones:<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.thegatewaypundit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/sem-ttulo-1200x630.png\")
