Back in 1947, a group of mutant Russian children, horribly deformed by the death camp doctor Josef Mengele, crashed their reverse-engineered Nazi flying saucer into the desert near the town of Roswell in New Mexico. The idea was Joseph Stalin’s, and it came to him after reading reports of Orson Welles’s radio broadcast, in 1938, of the sci-fi story War of the Worlds which caused widespread panic in the US. Stalin’s idea was to see if he could spook the Americans using a REAL flying saucer piloted by ‘aliens’. So his people got hold of an experimental disc-shaped aircraft that had been built by the Germans in the War. They also persuaded the captured Dr Mengele to carry on with his grotesque experiments – to create a cadre of odd-looking humans that would make the Americans believe they were under extra-terrestrial attack. And after realising that everyone did indeed believe it was aliens, the CIA was happy to go along with this story as it helped divert attention to what the Americans were REALLY up to.
Bonkers? Probably. This is the latest theory to ‘explain’ the ‘Roswell Incident’, the lynchpin of UFO lore. So it wasn’t aliens after all, says American Journalist Annie Jacobsen, who has written an entertaining (and otherwise plausible) history of Area 51, the secret military testing ground in Nevada just up the road from Roswell.
