Joe Rogan Experience #1299 - Annie Jacobsen

Jacobsen’s source claims the Roswell incident involved Stalin using surgically altered, disabled children in a drone craft to mimic an alien landing and psychologically destabilize the U.S., illustrating how far states may go with hoaxes and propaganda.

She argues one reason Area 51 remained so tightly classified was U.S. human experimentation—possibly including attempts to copy Soviet ‘alien’ hoaxes—alongside known nuclear and aviation testing.

Under Title 50, the CIA runs covert paramilitary operations, including targeted killings, in over 100 countries—missions presidents can authorize via secret findings that bypass normal military rules of engagement.

Post‑WWII, the U.S. recruited and protected high‑level Nazi scientists—including those implicated in human experiments and slave labor—to gain rocket, chemical, and biological weapons expertise before the Soviets could.

Rogan and Jacobsen contrast the public’s revulsion at close-up knife assassinations with the relative acceptance of drone strikes, despite significant civilian deaths and the creation of new enemies through ‘preemptive neutralization.’
