'UFO' Hovers over Jerusalem

Wobbly camcorder video footage that appears to show an unidentified flying object hovering over Jerusalem's Temple Mount has become the latest UFO sighting to fascinate the conspiratorially minded among us.

In the video, a light-filled orb appears to float over the holy site for about 30 seconds to the sound of "oohs" and "aahs" - and the more literal "is that a UFO?" - from the onlookers behind the camera.

The alleged sighting occurred on January 28 and as more videos have found their way online, so the conspiracy theories have gathered pace.

You may shrug and say UFO sighting are a dime a dozen - especially in a world where everyone has a camera - but this one does have the extra spice of being at such a significant religious site.

Sunni Muslims believe it was from the mount that Muhammad ascended to heaven, and it also represents one of the most important sites in the Jewish faith.

Perhaps more intriguing is the fact it was shot from various angles that all seem to be in sync, particularly at the moment when the object flies upwards at high speed

As we know, the truth is out there. Deciding whether it's floating above the Temple Mount, or in a mind of an elaborate hoax artist is what will fuel debate for many a year.
