Any particular reason you keep reposting the same old countermeasures videos?
To the best of my knowledge, no one who points out a video as "flares" means these countermeasures. They (myself included) mean distant shots of parachute flares. But you keep on posting the same footage of countermeasures for "comparison"

I did notice something though when people claim UFO's are flares where is the smoke from the flare? If it is at night it might be hard to see, but during the day it would clearly be seen.

Does this look like any light's or UFO's footage we have seen?

Why would the military drop flares during the day?? It's daylight. Visibility is no problem. That's why you don't see the smoke from flares during the day.
Also, the example photo in this thread that shows smoke at night was shot at relatively close range. Compare the size of the lights to the compared Phoenix Light flare picture. The Phoenix lights are much smaller, thus being many times farther away. That's another reason you don't see smoke from flares in videos at night.
I'm only about 14 miles away from where general illumination flares are dropped over the local bombing range. Even though the flares appear quite large, no smoke is visible. Long-burning flares put out less smoke than the short-lived ones that are dropped lower or fired from artillery.
