Your right about the blue being the sky through the camo net, but wrong about the sharp dots not being a result of the lack of AA.

Here is an example of a basic camo net texture against a blue background
With AA it looks like this:

You can see how the AA has smoothed out the holes by making pixel colour the result of the colour of a selection of sub-pixels:


If I turn off AA, the camo next looks like this:

up close, you can see that the holes have lost their shape and become dots.


It looks like it is covered in blue dots because the pixel colour no longer takes account of it's sub-pixels.
it's the same effect that makes the holes in the CloD screenshot look like blue dots.

AA isn't just for the jaggies.
