Mysterious NJ drone activity may be deliberate distraction hiding potential attack on US, expert claims: ‘Could very well get hit (take it with a grain of salt)

The enigmatic drones looming over the tri-state area are likely a deliberate distraction by a foreign power trying to hide other nefarious activities in the US, one expert has claimed.

“These drones and this activity is too large, too well-organized to be the work of hobbyists,” Gordon Chang, a senior fellow at the Gatestone Institute think-tank and author of “Plan Red: China’s Project to Destroy America,” told Fox Business.

“And that sort of leaves foreign powers. It could be Iran, it could be Iran in connection with China, but clearly, somebody is trying to absorb our attention,” he claimed of the numerous sightings of the well-lit drones.

“The thing that really worries me is that if they’re trying to draw our attention to these drones, the question is what are they doing elsewhere in our country? So we could very well get hit,” warned Chang.

Mysterious drones have been looming over the East Coast, particularly New York and New Jersey, over the past few weeks, with at least 3,000 sightings reported in the Garden State this month alone.

Its our own military hardware, they just don’t want to confirm it.

Gordon Chang is a China "expert" so his bias needs to be taken into account.

That said, he makes some points worth considering.

[RoosterRedux]

Sorry. That doesn't make sense.

Not saying that conclusion is true. It's just that the evidence at this point doesn't support it. In other words, that's a baseless opinion.

[CivilWarBrewing]

...but they WANT it to be HIGH PROFILE where everyone can see it and freak out about it.

If gov't testing, why not do this over a desert area such as Groom Lake, Area 51 or some such?

[RoosterRedux]

Make your case as to why that is probable. Make a logical case for your speculation.

Gordon Chang is a China "expert" so his bias needs to be taken into account.

And he is usually pretty accurate. But if these were anything but domestic, I'd expect the military/feds would be taking them a lot more serious.

[RoosterRedux]

The Feds are worrying about Trump, Vance, Hegseth, Musk, and Vivek.

[CFW]

Or it could be our government planning something deliberate against Donald J Trump and his supporters.

I have absolutely zero trust in our current government agencies, leadership, and personnel.

[RoosterRedux]

That’s a very strong possibility. I would rather these drones be aliens, but I think your suggestion has higher odds.

[The Louiswu]

Don’t fall for distractions or these things that fill you with anxiety or fear. Let JESUS have your fear, leave the worrying to the Lord and remain focused on his Grace and His Blessings for you and your family.

[Brian Griffin]

Someone here claimed that the drones are looking for a dirty bomb.

What we know supports that theory.

[RoosterRedux]

Amen.

[Robe]

All hype and hysteria....

[RoosterRedux]

Bullshite.

Lay out the case for that.

[Leaning Right]

> It’s our own military hardware, they just don’t want to confirm it. <

If I were forced to bet, I’d bet you’re right. Someone on another FR thread guessed that the drones are federal government drones looking for possible dirty bombs.

And since the Feds refuse to give us any information, that wild guess seems more logical than any other wild guess I’ve heard so far.

DITTOS to that.

[RoosterRedux]

Yur an idiot. Read what regular folks from New Jersey have seen and experienced.

[Jamestown1630]

If it’s a test, I’ve wondered if it would more likely be a psychological study than a hardware test.

[RoosterRedux]

What would be the end game of such a test if not war?

It looks like someone is probing our defenses, terrorizing our citizens, and diverting attention from areas of attack.

If not, make your case.
