Really. Eleven out of how many? That's a majority of testimony?
That's not entirely accurate.
But off the top of my head, you need to take Salas of your list. He didn't see anything.
Callahan...nope. Didn't see anything.
Smith... nope...
Kolbeck... no
Willis? Are you kidding? He didn't see anything either but...

Your initial statement was that the witnesses testimonies were mainly based on heresay. This is entirely inaccurate, and slanderous.
But out of all of those people what is the predominant theme? "Someone told me something about something". Second and third hand information with the original source not named.
I said that predominantly the reports were second and third hand. The exceptions I pointed to your list were all second hand (at best).
While most did not see them with their eyes directly, they did however track them on radar and there were corroborating eyewitnesses to many of them.
Yes, they are.
The majority of the stories are not second hand or third hand accounts as you initially claimed
Callahan has radar tapes in his possession, hardly the back seat driver your claiming him to be.
He was also provided a large number of documents relating to the incident, which is in his possession.

No. It is called critical thinking. These people have opinions and formed their own conclusions about what they may (or may not) have been told. That's it.
To scoff and say "so what" at such incidences, just screams ignorance and bias.
Which Bentwaters incident are you referring to? 1956 or 1980?
Without even trying, the Bentwaters case comes to mind, first hand encounters with the craft, corroborating witnesses, amazing case that one.

I highly encourage you to read the document of Steven Greer's testimony:
Would this not be enough evidence to say Russian jets are invading US airspace?

No.
Read up on radar jamming techniques. It can create false returns. It can create the illusion of great velocities.

Do you honestly believe these people or anyone for that matter would put their reputation, pride, ego on the line if they weren't absolutely certain about what they were claiming. You'd have to be completely nuts and the majority of them are clearly not in that category.
