So how in the hell would those uneducated witnesses not know the difference between draining and UFO's?

Come on buddy, did you take a gander at the area?
What witnesses?
There were eyewitness reports of UFOs sucking up the water of the lake.

Well I have a few friends that will swear they saw a few monkeys fly out of my butt, so does that make it true?

It took scientists several weeks before they were able to discover the answer because the site is very remote -- about 4,900 feet above sea level and 1,250 miles south of Chile's capital, Santiago. But in early July 2007, scientists got their answer.
An investigation has revealed that too much water was the problem. The melting Tempano and Bernardo glaciers filled the lake beyond the crater's capacity. The increased pressure broke the lake's moraine through which water flowed out, later ending up in the ocean. The lake is refilling as the chunks of ice on the lake bed melt, though Chilean scientists pointed out that global warming did have a serious effect. Glaciers naturally melt and reform, but warming is causing the Tempano and Bernardo glaciers to melt more than they should..
For some lakes, rapidly appearing or disappearing is part of a natural process. The lake in Chile did not exist 30 years ago, though, again, global warming is likely affecting the process. Some lakes, including many in Alaska and Florida's Lake Jackson, go through a similar process regularly, disappearing and reappearing during certain seasons, or from year-to-year or decade-to-decade.

Well let me give you one. Since the lake was left full of icebergs then maybe the lake was partially supported by an iceberg daming off one part. As we all know galacial ice in the Mountains around the world is melting. So when the ice melted enough the water started to drain. That makes a heck of a lot more sense than trying to attribute it to UFO's.
Russia is a land of many mysteries, not just ufological in nature. The
programme ended with a report from a US journalist, Kim Murphy of the
LA Times, talking about her trip to Russia to investigate a lake that had
mysteriously vanished. She wasn’t sure she believed the stories, but
when she got there, she found that it was true. An entire lake had
vanished, with eyewitnesses saying that a huge whirlpool had formed
and the water had vanished like water down a plug hole.
