UFO over Jerusalem; G-Force...

Other than that, I'm not sure I agree that the picture is fake because there are no people on the streets at 12:00-A.M. in the morning, ...

Nobody on the streets except for four (three?) people that just happened to be carrying some form of video camera? And midnight is not that late.

Good point.

... or that the light was not on the temple (if the craft was slightly behind the temple?), ...

Behind the temple in all the views? Not according to the geometry I know, but heck, they're probably four or five dimensional beings.

Even better point!

I've seen enough anecdotal evidence of UFO ...

I see UFOs all the time. Sue says, "What kind of plane is that?" I look and reply, "I don't recognize it." Meets the definition: it's flying, it's an object, and it's unidentified (by me, at least).

Two factors. First, more and more DoD is looking for autonomous or remotely controlled weapons of war. The physical limitations of the human body is one of the reasons for that. Second, except on TV and the movies, no one does secret development, flight test, etc. over highly populated areas when there is so much desolate landscape to hide them in.

Really, aliens are more probable than secret aircraft in these situations. As Fermi asked, "Where are they?" Of course, they are less likely than Russell's teapot, unless, of course, they put it there.

I believe almost all reported UFO's are either civilian planes, satellites, or elaborate hoaxes. That leaves a very small amount of authentic UFO sightings. Of these, if people want to argue they are aliens, fine. If people want to argue we took "alien" technology and are the ones who are using it now, fine. If people want to argue the government is the entity who has this technology, fine. I personally don't care where it came from; all I know is this technology exists. What I'd like to see is the technology used to help transport civilians - flying cars anyone? I don't know if this technology could be used for space travel, but if it could, I imagine mining for minerals on other planets would be very profitable. I think AUTOMATED flying cars would be safe, fast, and get rid of traffic. I think this technology would help expedite humanitarian efforts globally. If aliens could somehow survive G-forces that strong, then how could the technology be adapted so we could safely use it? Which brings me back to my original question of the technology behind surviving the G-force, and being able to go those speeds.
