Icke: Then and now 
David Icke started out as a footballer, before his knee swelled up for no reason and he became, instead, a sports commentator. With the public light on him and journalism skills building up, it was quite appropriate. In 1982 he moved to the Isle of Wight and started campaigning with Greenpeace and The Green Party. He started to write a book called It Doesn't Have to Be Like This, about environmental issues. He started to feel a strange presense, which he asked to make itself known. Apparently, things took off from there. In Icke's own words:
"...stood at the entrance to the shop and said we were going now to find another cafe', but as I turned to leave, my feet were stuck to the ground as if two magnets were pulling them to the floor. I don't hear voices or anything, I just follow my intuition, but in this early period of awakening I did hear three voices very clearly. This was the first. It said: "Go and look at the books on the far side." What the hell was this all about?, I thought."
Cut a long story short, soon afterwards he felt compelled to visit Peru.
"After I had walked around the ruins for an hour or so in the piercing Peruvian Sun, I went back to the tourist bus to go back to Puno. I thought the trip was over, but it had hardly begun. About three minutes drive down the road I was looking out of the window and I saw a mound to my right. As I looked at the mound, a voice in my head began to say: "Come to me, come to me, come to me." Very strange to say the least, but I asked the driver to stop because I wanted to go and look at the mound.... there was a circle of standing stones at the top of the mound and they had clearly been there a very long time. I stood in the centre ... Suddenly, I felt my feet pulled to the ground again like a magnet, the same as in the newspaper shop, but this time far more powerful ... It was then I heard the third voice in my head, something that has never happened since. It said very clearly: "It will be over when you feel the rain."

Sadly, the thing Icke may be most famous for is his 1991 appearance on the Terry Wogan Show. Watch the clip, Icke does come across as a bit strange, but Wogan acted like a bully, jostling the crowd into siding with him and laughing at the weirdo. Ever since, Icke has pretended that he doesn't care. The Wogan show famously made David Icke a laughing stock. He couldn't wak down the street without people jeering. So what did he actually say?
Well - he said that we live in a world full of hate. He said that many natural disasters would happen over the next few years. He said that the world was run by a behind-the-scenes elite. He said a lot of things that many believe to be true, but that many, many more don't. Some say that the amount of ridicule proves that he was right, and that the mass media were trying their best to discredit him.
Even now, when I say David Icke, my parents snort because all they remember is the 1991 show and the turquoise shellsuit. However, Icke made a smooth comeback last year, where he managed to get the crowd laughing WITH him, not AT him (as Wogan so nicely put it). This is the only link I can find.
Icke has published about 15 books, which you can buy here - his official website. You will notice the plea for money. It's up to you what you think on that one!

However, one of the topics that he mentions the most is his idea that the ruling elite are, in fact, lizard people! The idea is that reptilian, multidimensional beings are controlling earth's own elite, and that these reptilians can also shapeshift or disguise themselves as people. He has proposed the theory that the world is run by a certain family, who are all related as to keep the power in the bloodlines. As you can imagine, this particular idea is where most "normal" people draw the line, and stop listening.
However, in his favour, there is a lot of serpentine symbology hidden in modern texts as well as in ancient mythology. Here's a cute article I found about it. Or, for those of you who now use Wikipedia as gospel, there's one on there. You can probably find a lot of your own, but off the top of my head - the serpent that tempted Eve in the Garden of Eden (in the Bible, of course)... the Mayans used reptilian symbology, and now there are films out such as Snakes on a Plane! The snake has often been used as a sign of evil; we even use phrases like "he's a snake in the grass" - who knows, these could be literal! Of course I'm not saying that the fact reptiles come up in old stories mean that the elite are, in fact, a bunch of shape-shifting lizards. But it might explain where he's coming from. There's also the fact that royal blood is sometimes referred to as "blue blood" - what's that all about?
It's hard to believe Icke's theory on that one. He says a lot of things that make sense, but Tony Blair morphing into a lizard behind closed doors? Seems a bit surreal. So. Imagine you rule a country, a country of "cattle" as the Queen calls us, and you don't want them to discover the truth. Say you decided to create for them a reality - a reality that was so far from the truth, that the very thought of that truth would seem to them unreal, stupid, impossible. What tells you what is and isn't possible? Where did you get those ideas from? School? TV? Who governs them?

Icke has quite a following, including the Forum - also, if you search for reptilians - or some of their aliases: Annunaki/Annukai, Alpha Draconians, Zetas - you will find many people who have similar ideas. Try The Reptilian Agenda, for example. Not all of these are the exact same, but the idea is that they are extra terrestrials who in fact live among us. Some aim to take over, others want to help us. Did I mention Icke's reptilians were from space? Anyway. You make up your own mind.
Hey, Charles, what are you doing out of costume??
