2 Years Ago
Google Earth spotted Nine UFOS over Bethnal Green, East London, March, 2009
Nine mystery silver discs can be seen above a bookmaker's shop in an image of Bethnal Green, east London, taken by google Earth street view.
They appear to be flying in neat formation in three rows, attracting the attention of several passers-by, in the photograph of Wolverley Street.
One man can be seen craning his neck to look at the unidentified objects passing overhead as he strolls down the road

Thats an interesting one, apart from the silly ET music I think we are safe to rule out it being rigged up because googles very own cameras got it.
I do suspect that woman was looking up at a bag on display though.
Another maybe.
Do you live in Dublin cactus, I was checking for sightings there and it seems OBL's are commonly reported there. |

Was this reported in the press at the time?. What did Google have to say?. Are the pics still on there?.
Its definately real - it was on google earth
Here is another odd Google Earth/Maps sightings that actually appeared on Google as per the UFO's in the article:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/google/5017329/Google-Street-View-funny-images.html?image=15
This has been confirmed by a representative of Google, called Laura Scott.
Sooooo, if Paddington Bear is on Google Earth, by your logic Cactus - Paddington Bear is definitely real!. Break out the Marmalade Sandwiches

It's not there no more. Government probably ordered them to remove it in case it caused panic

I suspect they must have poped in padinton to discredit the real oddities they caught.
Got to love it though.
An OBL is a type of UFO commonly seen thesedays, paticually in England and Ireland, it stands for orange ball of light, they apperar out of nowhere, are not affected by wind, can travel very fast and with a purpose, sometimes in a formation and pulsate, they also range in size from a football to a caravan. |

Be carfull though, although if you see a proper one it's obvious they are not chinese lanterns but sometimes when people see a chinese lantern for the first time and they have never seen a UFO they get a bit exited and report it as a UFO.
I launch lanterns myself so I don't make the same mistake and think you should too for comparison.(lanterns tend to wobble about and you can see the fire, they dont pulsate or move around with a purpose.
Once you launch a lantern you will easilly be able to identify one again when you see it and so not confuse them. |

yeah ive launched lanterns too - 10 at new year and one 6ft lantern
i would know the difference, but maybe others who report it wouldnt, although some of the reports really dont seem to be lanterns eg object sits for a long time then takes off at speed |

They're probably controlled by the NWO as well.

Argumentum Ad-hominem: Shoot the messenger fallacy.
This is a common logical fallacy. Argumentum ad hominem basically means that the argument becomes directed towards the individual as opposed towards the crucial issues being discussed. It is succinctly described as, attack the messenger not the message (hence – shoot the messenger). It is often seen in both politics and pseudoscience. Its aim is to undermine the position of ones opponent, by undermining the opponent personally (in a manner that is actually completely irrelevant to the debate). The hope here is that if one can discredit the individual, this by default, discredits his / her argument. It does not. The fallacy here relates to the irrelevance of the attack. It is not viable to argue against a position and then justify that argument by criticising the individual who holds it. Arguing that the proposals from the Educational minister are unlikely to work because he / she have no children of their own is hardly convincing. Furthermore, saying that Einstein or Darwin were selfish men does nothing to discredit the theories of Relativity and Evolution. They may have been the most selfish or the most unselfish of men, but this is an irrelevance as to the ‘truth’ of their scientific claims. Similarly, a cognitive neuroscientific account of strange experiences (i.e., near-death experiences) is not incorrect simply because the scientist proposing it is a skeptic. These are all examples of the ad-hominem fallacy. Any claim or theory should not be rejected solely on the basis of who holds it.
