Annie Jacobsen recently released a book entitled ‘Area 51’. The book is creating a lot of buzz because in the book, Jacobsen reports that the infamous Roswell UFO crash wasn’t a UFO, but a spy plane sent by the USSR. It had crashed during an electrical storm. As far as the report of there being alien bodies strewn about…well, Jacobsen claims to have uncovered that these were “alien-like children” who were piloting the craft. Apparently they were sent to the US to create a HG Wells type of panic.

Crazy right? Well it gets crazier.

Jacobsen says in her book that these “alien-like children” were Nazi doctor Joseph Mengele’s creation. Which is kind of creepy since we know the Third Reich was deeply involved in the occult and dark magic. Although Hitler and his men were involved in the occult, there is no proof to corroborate Jacobsen’s claims. And by proof I mean detailed documents that talk about these types of experiments on mutated pilots and spy crafts sent to the US.

Furthermore one must ask: “If these claims are true, why would other nations create such a wild ruse just to confuse the US?“.

It’s an interesting theory, but I think it was more meant to create a buzz than it being based on factual events.

Is truth stranger than conspiracy-theory fiction? A new book on Area 51 that’s already generating a ton of buzz says there was no alien spacecraft that crashed in Roswell, New Mexico in 1947. Instead, Stalin did it — maybe.

According to Annie Jacobsen, the reporter who authored “Area 51,” the spaceship was actually a Soviet spy plane that came down during a storm. Jacobsen claims it was filled with bizarre, genetically engineered child-sized pilots in an attempt, by the Soviet Union’s leader Joseph Stalin, to cause widespread panic in the U.S.

The story gets even stranger: The leader of the USSR had apparently been inspired by a radio broadcast, produced by Orson Welles, which was an adaptation of the HG Wells story “War of the Worlds.” The broadcast caused mass hysteria in some listeners who tuned in and mistook it for a real-life alien invasion.

And those ET-looking aviators? They were scientific experiments created by the “Angel of Death,” Nazi doctor Joseph Mengele, for the USSR. The flight was piloted remotely, according to accounts in the book, and was filled with a crew of “alien-like children.”

According to Jacobsen’s source, a retired engineer who was put on the project in 1978, the look of the human experiments could explain the alien conspiracy theories: “They were grotesquely deformed, but each in the same manner as the others. They had unusually large heads and abnormally shaped oversize eyes.”

True? There’s no way to prove it. Like everything related to the mystery spot, documents surrounding the eerie events are still classified.

Still, lack of proof hasn’t exactly stopped the book from causing conversation on the media circuit and on the Web. In the last day, Yahoo! searches skyrocketed 3,000% for “area 51 book.” And the tome is penned not by a crackpot conspirator, but a respected journalist.

Even the New York Times gives her credence, writing in its review: “Although this connect-the-dots UFO thesis is only a hasty-sounding addendum to an otherwise straightforward investigative book about aviation and military history, it makes an indelible impression. ‘Area 51’ is liable to become best known for sci-fi provocation.”

But sci-fi provocation may be all the book generates. After all, without the government coming out and saying what happened back in 1947, even if there was no conspiracy, the stories of the “Roswell Incident” will remain just that.
