Jeez, that's a lot of crap to wade through.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsbh5XQ_n8M - Supposedly shows a UFO over Istanbul, but looks hilarious if you ask me (Battlestar Galactica anyone?)
What I find funny about this one is that the poster lists all these institutions and witnesses who supposedly verified the footage, yet not a single one is ever shown actually saying a word about it. Kinda like all the doomsayers who claim that NASA verified the existence of Nibiru at some point, but nobody can ever produce an original statement to that effect. As for the footage itself, I have no idea. Seems a bit of stretch to call it an unidentified flying object, however. It's quite low and could easily be a boat in that heavy fog. Whoever made the video goes out of his way to point and say, "No boat visible." Though, if you look closely, nothing is visible except the lights. Also, in true woo video fashion, the footage is blurry, poorly-lit and less than steady.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dm146T4gH1g&feature=related - Looks like a weather phenomena of some sort (perhaps a punch hole cloud), but I can be wrong. The explanation that it's the effects of a hydrogen bomb seems incredibly far-fetched, but again, I can be wrong. What do you think it is?
Hydrogen bomb? Where was the blast? How does one hide something like that?
These sorts of cloud features are not unheard of.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9es1BNBfIp8&feature=related - Here is another UFO sighting=) To me this one really looks like a punch hole cloud, but I'm not 100% sure.
Just gotta love the title of this one:
"U.F.O. PUNCHES HOLE in MEXICAN SKY!!!! HIDALGO UFO CRASH?"
Textbook hole punch cloud. Not sure where they're getting the "U.F.O." part. Dramatic effect?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMshPOdAJKU&feature=related - This is the only one that actually confuses me a bit (just ignore the omnious editing). Most of it is crap, but what could those lightfleets really be? They seem to move in a formation in one of the clips (not the stupid crucifix=).
Most of them look really, really fake to me. The ones at night could be anything. Human beings have no shortage of aircraft. Just add lights.
And what do you think the light in the sky at 5:54 - 6:28 is? Could that be a punch hole cloud too (but where does the light come from?)
I really have no idea. It's a shaky, blurry amateur video that conveys no meaningful information about its purported subject, which is the way most UFO proponents prefer it. Much easier to manufacture the information later. It could also be fake — never rule that out. Simple editing is a snap with modern software, and low-quality footage can be used to cover imperfections in the hoax.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4aC09UJClY&feature=related - And what is this crap? Did they ever found out what it really was?
Notice how the "whistle-blower" leaps from "UFO" to "extraterrestrial." Common fallacy — claim there was an unidentified object, then identify it as alien. I'm not exactly sure how many people make the segue intentionally versus how many simply can't tell the difference.
In any case, try this:

And finally, what is all this crap about Galactic federation of light that they refer to in the light videos?
From a readily-Googleable woo site:
"The Galactic Federation of Light was founded over 4.5 million years ago to prevent inter-dimensional dark forces from dominating and exploiting this galaxy. At present, there are just over 200,000 member star nations, confederations or unions. Approximately 40% are humanoids and the rest are varied forms of sentient beings. Most members of the Galactic Federation are fully conscious beings."
I don't think further commentary is necessary.
