The Pentagon does not run the drone program, the CIA does...so the pentagon saying “it “ has not lost a drone and “it” is not flying drones over Ukraine, does not necessarily mean the CIA did lose one

The Pentagon and the CIA have drones.

If the story is true—and I am finding a large % of what they report is true these days, we have just provided them with a real boost to their drone program. Worry not—if true they will put pictures of it all over the internet soon.

I think there’s a plan behind this... to foster just such thinking.

Manipulation is the name of the one world “progressive” game.

it doesnt appear that there have been any statements made by anyone in the U.S. Government...about a drone....so Im suspecting that if there was a drone it was not ours.

Drones to me... have the same place in the larger scheme of things as cars that drive themselves....

You can be sure that there are plenty of boots on the ground in the form of CIA personnel and “spies”. Plenty of Ukrainians not too far from me.

“it there was...would they admit it was ours?”

They wouldn’t admit that Iran had downed a drone, until it showed up on TV.

“Does everyone hate Obama so much, that they believe what Russia says?”

When you have to do a calculation to determine who might be more truthful, Russia, Putin, or the Obama Administration, we really are in trouble, as a nation.

This drone story was a fabrication from the start. Even the Russian electronics company Rostec named in the original article have denied any part.
Official denial of the State Corporation Rostec does not confirm the information about the facts of use of the "Autobase" technical utility on the Crimea Peninsula Rostec State Corporation does not confirm the information concerning the facts of use of the "Autobase" technical utility on the Crimea Peninsula, which was published in a number of mass media. The State Corporation bears responsibility for the quality of its products but is by no means responsible for the relocation and the results of the use of the equipment supplied by the Corporation's organizations within the framework of contractors' orders. The above mentioned piece of information was originally published on the "Military Observer" Internet portal. Thereby the complete responsibility for the correctness, authenticity and reliability of the published information lies upon the editors of the "Military Observer".
ROSTEC Link

Original link from where the idiots in the press first picked up the fabrication

Isn't the ability of drones to fly low considered to be one of their FEATURES, so as to avoid radar?

An altitude of 12,000 feet is not 'low'. Neither is it high.

Flying low to avoid radar means flying at tree-top level to mask a radar signature with ground-clutter.
