What a bunch of old hokum... This is right down there with the documentary that the lunar landings were faked...
And one I've posted before, The Battle of LA;
Not that I enjoy quoting myself, but I'd hate to see this video ignored as in my opinion it's pretty damn impressive.
Anyone have any thoughts on it?

Probably much of the confusion came from the fact that anti-aircraft shell bursts, caught by the searchlights, were themselves mistaken for enemy planes. In any case, the next three hours produced some of the most imaginative reporting of the war: "swarms" of planes (or, sometimes, balloons) of all possible sizes, numbering from one to several hundred, traveling at altitudes which ranged from a few thousand feet to more than 20,000 and flying at speeds which were said to have varied from "very slow" to over 200 miles per hour, were observed to parade across the skies. These mysterious forces dropped no bombs and, despite the fact that 1,440 rounds of anti-aircraft ammunition were directed against them, suffered no losses. There were reports, to be sure, that four enemy planes had been shot down, and one was supposed to have landed in flames at a Hollywood intersection. Residents in a forty-mile arc along the coast watched from hills or rooftops as the play of guns and searchlights provided the first real drama of the war for citizens of the mainland. The dawn, which ended the shooting and the fantasy, also proved that the only damage which resulted to the city was such as had been caused by the excitement (there was at least one death from heart failure), by traffic accidents in the blacked-out streets, or by shell fragments from the artillery barrage.
Initially, the target of the aerial barrage was thought to be an attacking force from Japan, but speaking at a press conference shortly afterward Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox called the incident a "false alarm." Newspapers of the time published a number of sensational reports and speculations of a cover-up. A small number of modern-day UFOlogists have suggested the targets were extraterrestrial spacecraft.[3] When documenting the incident in 1983, the U.S. Office of Air Force History attributed the event to a case of "war nerves" likely triggered by a lost weather balloon and exacerbated by stray flares and shell bursts from adjoining batteries.
When is zooms in on them, on other videos of the Tether incident, they all look the same, and are moving against orbit in all different directions. Pictures of these exact objects have been found in cave drawings/paintings across the world in many different locations too.
What about you Muslims - would Allah suddenly not exist?
Funnily enough the Quran does mention other life forms in the universe, whether they be aliens or whatever. But we wouldnt see them as God nor would we worship such life forms....so Allah would still exist for us.
Shooting a cloud lot up by spot lights, such mass confusion and twisted realism is well documented.
Humans do not make good witnesses, especially under stress. hence the100's of differing reports that day.
Not sure where you got weather balloon from.
Edit
The radar signature was lost out at sea, so it took no anti aircraft shells.
The documentary i seen on it painted a very different picture from a wikipedia posting.
For all of you that are interested in UFO's this documentary is a must see. Are all these people lying? I don't think so...
