He probably was. I mean, there's a chance it was something nefarious, but as his lawyer, I believe, said, if he's a spy, he's the worst spy ever. Yeah. Which... Yeah. Considering you left a trail that allowed them to track you back to buying the drone in San Francisco, you're probably not very good at it.

I don't think that guy was a spy. I think he was stupid. But this...

it's it's not necessarily localized over air bases there these drones have been sitting right over top of residential neighborhoods they've also been sitting right near air bases they have been sitting near airports and it's also been nuclear power plants right nuclear power plants i believe um it's weird because you would think if this was espionage what's the point of sitting over top of a residential neighborhood what are you learning

So I was doing some thinking on it. There were four possible countries I considered as responsible for the drones. Let me know if you agree with this. But the only... I can't see any of our allies sending drones over us. Because... Why would they? Why would they? We have the Five Eyes, we have Interpol, we have NATO, we have, like, all this different stuff.

But somebody would know about it. Exactly. So I doubt it's any of our allies. There are some BRICS nations I could see, but Brazil is part of NATO still, so I don't think it would be them. Iran, however, Russia... If you look at some of the other countries that might have the capability, you're looking at maybe India, but they're again an ally and also what could they possibly be learning?

And then you go beyond there. Most of the other adversarial countries aren't There, because from what I'm seeing, these are not basic drones. These are able to fly for hours at a time. They are able to avoid radar tracking. In some instances, they've been able to lose F-15s. Like, granted, the F-15 is a very old aircraft at this point. It's what, the 80s?

You know, it's not a new jet, but it's a fast jet.

It's because they fly significantly slower and lower. They're going 100 miles an hour. An F-15 can't go 100 miles an hour. It literally cannot do it. So what's weird is that the 2023 ones... it seems like the military really couldn't keep track of them. They were genuinely confused about where these were coming from. Now it's, if you read some of the statements that are coming out, they're weird.

There are certain groups that are able to say, yeah, we don't know what that is. Like we genuinely have no idea where this is coming from. Then the Pentagon says something like, you know, there is no evidence that these are foreign drones or, Or, or these are not a threat. These are not a threat. Exactly. It's like the specific wording they're putting out is very, it's dancing around the issue.

Yeah. So, and I was, but I was thinking about it. I was like, all right. So right now, Russia is engaged in a very bloody war with a country that is can't wipe it off the map. The dumbest thing they could possibly do right now is antagonize a country that can wipe them off the map.
