Although hot air balloons had been around since the 1700s, it was closer to 1900 before balloon airships became widely known.\u2019 Torres has written three books about historic UFO cases, &quot;Mexico\u2019s Roswell: The Chihuahua UFO Crash&quot; (2007), &quot;The Other Roswell: UFO Crash on the Texas-Mexico Border&quot; (2008), and &quot;Ultimate Guide to the Roswell UFO Crash&quot; (2010).<\/p>\n<p>\u201c\u2019It seems likely that UFOs were quite common in the 1800s,\u2019 [Mr.] Torres said, \u2018We have found hundreds of newspaper and magazine accounts about people seeing strange objects and lights in the sky. We have also found articles that mention face-to-face encounters with creatures that seemed human but were clearly not.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAccording to [Messrs.] Torres and LeMay, because airplanes and spaceships were unknown concepts in the 1800s, people who saw strange things in the sky usually described them by comparing them to known objects like \u2018cigars\u2019 and \u2018balloons.\u2019 The term \u2018flying saucer\u2019 was not widely used until the 1940s, although \u2018The Real Cowboys &amp; Aliens\u2019 includes an account of an 1878 UFO sighting by a Texas farmer who described what he saw as a \u2018large saucer.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSince this was long before the era of jet planes and spacecraft, the cowboys and farmers of the 1800s often struggled to put into words what they had witnessed, Torres and LeMay said. Unless a UFO slowed down enough to where they could observe it carefully, most of the Old West residents probably didn\u2019t take much notice. Vapor trails in the daytime and streaks of light at night likely did not make much of an impression on these hardened pioneers. These sights were just part of the \u201csigns and wonders\u201d that often appeared in the heavens.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;\u2019The Real Cowboys &amp; Aliens\u2019 opens with an eyewitness amazing account of an 1864 UFO crash in the Rocky Mountains, as told to a Cincinnati newspaper by Montana fur trapper James Lumley. The incident is one of the earliest reported sightings of a seemingly artificial object crashing down to Earth. According to [Messrs.] Torres and LeMay, after examining the crash site, Lumley was convinced the object was highly unusual. \u201cIt was soon clear that the object was not a fallen meteor. Lumley claimed that it was \u2018divided into compartments\u2019 and parts of it had been \u2018carved\u2019 with hieroglyphics, similar to the writings of ancient Egypt.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>&quot;\u2019The Real Cowboys &amp; Aliens\u2019 also contains an updated account of the famous 1897 Aurora, Texas UFO incident, where a strange flying object slammed into an Old West windmill and fell to the ground in pieces. The residents of the small town recovered the body of the pilot, who was described as \u2018not of this Earth\u2019 and gave it a \u2018proper Christian burial\u2019 in the town cemetery. Many people believe that the alien\u2019s remains still exist today amidst the shade trees of the Aurora cemetery.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cowboys &amp; Aliens movie: \u201cAliens are kind of the last pure evil enemy\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In stark contrast to the published UFO and ET research in \u2019The Real Cowboys and Aliens\u2019 book, \u201cCowboys &amp; Aliens\u201d the movie is all about the threatened hostile invasion and occupation of Earth for gold.<\/p>\n<p>The \u201cblurb\u201d of Cowboys &amp; Aliens the movie says: \u201cA spaceship arrives in Arizona, 1873, to take over the Earth, starting with the Wild West region.

When we caught up with him later, he elaborated on what he meant.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c\u2019I think it\u2019s just that. I think it\u2019s fun to be able to play the enemy. I think now people are treated as complex and there\u2019s no \u2018them and us\u2019 anymore. It\u2019s just the world is too small,\u2019 he said. \u2018I think what\u2019s interesting is when you start dealing with our differences in a very intelligent way. I think a lot of that\u2019s happening in cable television and in series, and in long form [programs]. But in an hour and a half movie you really have to be careful about being responsible about how you present things and that presents a lot of challenges in the comic book thing too. You know you treat people a lot differently then you did during wartime\u2026. when these characters first emerged the world was a different place and so in order to not be anachronistic about it and not make the wrong statement you have to update these things in a delicate way and inevitably you\u2019re going to be violating the source material.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cowboy alien-abductees vs. reptilian-like planetary invaders<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A core question is\u201d Why Stephen Spielberg (whose motion picture this is) has continued to bring audiences Exopolitical junk?<\/p>\n<p>For a motion picture with a reported $150 million budget, the Cowboy &amp; Aliens movie plot is surprisingly thin, exopolitically twisted and inaccurate, lacks any semblance of character development, and dispenses with injecting a realistic historical and social context in the film.<\/p>\n<p>Cowboys &amp; Aliens the movie is built around the plot of a reptilian-like extraterrestrial species invading the Earth for gold through the Old West. &#0160;The reptilians abduct local whites and Native Americans and bring them back to their gold-mining facility (their space ship) for medical-like experiments. &#0160;The Cowboy hero (a James Bond character actor) is an ET abductee who escapes with a reptilian wrist-bracelet weapon that gives the Cowboy-Indian faction the technological edge against the reptilians. Eventually, the Cowboy hero unites with the Star wars and Indiana Jones star (Harrison Ford the Cowboy), more Native Americans, cowboys, and Bad guys, and a fifth dimensional materialized former reptilian abductee to storm the reptilians\u2019 mother ship, liberate the ET abductees, kill the reptilian ETs, destroy the ET spacecraft, and save the Earth for humanity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What are the Exopolitical distortions in Cowboys &amp; Aliens the movie?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Continue reading article:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#0160;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.examiner.com\/exopolitics-in-seattle\/cowboys-aliens-movie-twists-true-history-of-ufos-and-ets-the-old-west#ixzz1TtiQocFt\">http:\/\/www.examiner.com\/exopolitics-in-seattle\/cowboys-aliens-movie-twists-true-history-of-ufos-and-ets-the-old-west<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>&#0160;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&quot;Cowboys &amp; Aliens&quot; &#8211; First alien attack.
