There never were aliens at Area 51.

It was all just a ruse to cover up even more dark shit.

Think of things banned by the Geneva convention, like biological weapons, torture techniques, war crimes, ...

Making people think it is aliens makes it seem innocent by comparison.

torture techniques, war crimes,

Wouldn't that be Guantanamo Bay?

The reason that people belived it was aliens is that people are stupid. Area 51 was a secret but not so much anymore. Now we know it was useful for secret projects like A-12. It's a convenient place to do test flights of secret shit.
