hmmmm....I know a great deal about this field of study, it being a lifelong hobby [which caused me a certain amount of grief as a college science teacher].
Film/photo evidence is the trickiest in the business as many things can go "wrong" in surprising ways [sort of like our game the other day]. Although on the first glance, this seems to show an object of some kind making movements against the direction of the wind, no competent UFO researcher would accept the evidence as anything but "interesting" until they acquired access to the device which filmed it and did tests with it --- especially as to internal reflections or electronic aberrations, depending upon the technology.
Even once the device passed the test, the case rarely gets much credence unless the witness says that he/she saw the thing in action, rather than just discovered it on film later. Then one needs to find another witness or at least an associate who was immediately told about the thing. Etc. Etc. Establishing one of these things as a likely "true" UFO is very difficult, particularly given sociological prejudice against the subject.
As to the UFO causing our defeat ... if the UFOnauts are "little green men" {they aren't, but just for jokes sake}, they certainly will find soul brothers in leprechauns and root for the Irish.
Love your insight on things like this OMM because I too am very interested in the "unknown", conspiracies, mysteries, and such. Allows me to have a break, especially after a loss, to get away from the regular discussion of QB competitions, predictions, and other regular topics. I do love those threads but after awhile it makes my head spin.
