That Time Subterranean Aliens Killed 60 People in New Mexico
Dulce, New Mexico is located right on the Colorado-New Mexico border. It's a quaint town, with a population just under 3,000. It's the tribal headquarters of the Jicarilla Apache Reservation. It's also the alleged location of a secret underground alien base.
Philip Schneider, an explosive engineer who worked for the US government, with high-level security clearance, claimed that in 1979 he participated in the building of a "secret underground base," in Dulce, New Mexico. It was here that a horrific battle played out leaving 60 humans dead and countless subterranean aliens fighting for their life.
Schneider asserts that he was suspicious of the engineering operation while noticing the presence of Green Berets and Special Forces. His fears were realized when after drilling underground he came face-to-face with a 7-foot tall, stinky, grey alien. Obviously he freaked out and grabbed a pistol he was carrying and shot and killed two aliens. Another alien shot some laser-plasma ball or whatever at him and blew off some of his fingers. He was saved by a Green Beret who allegedly gave his life for him. In all, 60 human people allegedly lost their lives that day at the "Alien-Human Battle of Dulce."
Schneider became an outspoken advocate calling for the government to be more transparent about their knowledge of alien life. He also believed people in the government were trying to shut him up. When he was found dead January 17, 1996, in his apartment in Wilsonville, Oregon, he had been dead several days, perhaps up to a week, and reportedly had a rubber hose wrapped three times around his neck. Nevertheless, the Clackamas County Coroner’s office initially attributed his death to a stroke or heart attack.
Some suggest Schneider was murdered because he was leaking information to the public and unveiling conspiracies. At one time, he claimed to have avoided 13 murder attempts while lecturing on conspiracy theories. Schneider suffered from multiple physical ailments, including osteoporosis and cancer. Later, suicide was listed as the official cause of death.
Political scientist Michael Barkun claimed that underground missile installations built during the Cold War led to numerous rumors and ultimately the Dulce alien cave base legend. However, in 1999, the French government published a study concluding that the United States government withheld evidence that pointed to the existence of UFOs. The paper was entitled, "UFOs and Defense: What must We Be Prepared For?"
The lesson here: The truth is out there ... or is it? It is. Maybe. But, probably not. Or it could be.
