Looking at the lighting, it looks like whatever it is has made a complete circle.

Yeah I agree based on the earlier close up shot he got. Still flying. With little AAA.

I thought it a bug at first...a drone?

Could be a lightning bug.

Why lights?

Engines?

Who asked that question about the Iraqi people in Baghdad? Aren't you concerned about the humanitarian crisis?

Geez, dripping with accusation.

I got back in time to hear that. It was Jeannie Ohm with MSNBC and I thought she sounded quite, well, let's say witchy.

I also see Fox added the word "purportedly" to go along with the touring the city video.

Thanx, I see it now. I think it's a Federation shuttlecraft...

But seriously, looks like the Iraqis have wised up, and have given up trying to hit it.

Re: Could be drawing fire to get a fix on the AA locations.

I agree. It's low enough to be seen with the naked eye, it's drawing fire, making them turn on their radar, while we soak up info from 40,000 feet.

It can't be a F-18, it's too close to the ground.

It's appears to be a twin-engine job like a F-15 or F-18

Think you're right Pappy...
