David Icke

David Vaughan Icke [ de̯ɪvɪd a̯ɪk ] ( born April 29, 1952 in Leicester, England ) is a British journalist and former professional footballer. After a brief foray into politics as a press spokesman of the English countryside, he represents since the mid-1990s as a book author and speaker rechtsesoterische conspiracy theories.

Life

Icke played as a goalkeeper in the first Youth for Coventry City and until 1973 for the fourth-class professional club Hereford United. At the age of 21 years, however, he had to retire from football career because of arthritis. Shortly thereafter, he was a sports reporter for the BBC.

In 1990, after the break with the British Open, Icke began to follow claims to an inner voice. He began esoteric and conspiratorial reading books, worked with a medium and finally made ​​a trip to Peru, where this motivated him an awakening experience to call themselves shortly afterwards as the "Son of God", which earned him great ridicule in the British public. Years later, he explained that he thus his emotionally perceived oneness with all existence that one could also call God wanted to express.

The end of 2006 Icke was due to copyright disputes with a business partner in the U.S. close to financial bankruptcy.

Icke has a son ( Gareth ) and a daughter (Kerry) to his wife from his first marriage (Linda ) who now heads nor his publisher ( Bridge of Love Publications) in England and partly organized his lecture tours. He is now married to his second wife ( Heather ) and lives on the Isle of Wight.

Work and theses

Icke combines the theories of many different authors from the esoteric and conspiracy literature, but also facts from history, physics, economics and political science to a " grand conspiracy theory." He also sees itself primarily as a transmitter of information to which everyone should have access, and would be very disappointed, one would believe him everything unchecked.

Icke believes that a large part of civilization is controlled by a secret and pyramid-like organizational structure, which he identified with the Illuminati, a German radical Enlightenment secret society ceased to operate after it was banned in 1785. He also approvingly quotes the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, an anti-Semitic forgery from the beginning of the 20th century, should provide the evidence of a Jewish world conspiracy. After Ickes view are at the top of this organization structure, a minority with special genetic characteristics, which arose by crossing humans with extraterrestrial reptilian races. Interdimensional, reptilian spirit beings should be able to very easily connect from the lower fourth dimension on the two lower chakras with these reptilian hybrids to control this. Since the genes of these hybrids are also unstable, their bodies are at uncontrolled feelings can also take a reptilian form ( Icke calls this "Shape Shift" ). In order to preserve the human form, the hybrids are dependent on the consumption of human blood and flesh. This is the true motive of the allegedly practiced in these circles Satanism. The majority of European aristocracy descended from bloodlines that would be traced back to the early ancient times and especially in the Sumerian culture. These reptilians Icke is one example, in addition to leading politicians and aristocrats Bob Hope and Kris Kristofferson. Here, Icke refers to a large number of witnesses, which he had personal contact.

In addition, Icke believes the reptilians wanted to give people a chip implanted (see RFID chip ) to make it as better control in a global all-encompassing surveillance state and to be able to control by a centralized world government. They also wanted to do away with the cash, so everyone had to pay with his implanted chip. Furthermore Icke goes on the assumption that the earth is hollow and in their interior lives probably a reptilian / human hybrid race. The core of the Earth fancy a little sun.

Reception and criticism

While at first his books and speeches hardly received attention, Icke could fill from around the turn of the millennium also halls with several hundred spectators. In May 2006, was his seven -hour lecture on " Freedom Or Fascism: The Time To Choose " in London's Brixton Academy, which holds almost 5000 spectators, sold out in advance. His books include since about 2000 the most popular of the genre. With increasing awareness of the number of people who publish information with his help grew. So he shows in his lectures and films self-recorded interviews with Vusamazulu Credo Mutwa, Arizona Wilder and Cathy O'Brien.

The parts of his work take on very different encouragement. While many of his theses on economic and psychological manipulation of the masses by corporations and media are little criticized, Icke also represents views that are perceived by many people as absurd. For example, it its historical considerations carried the allegation, such as the ADL, one that he is a racist and anti-Semite. Icke disliked the idea by pointing out that bodies are only a material manifestation of an immortal soul and he merely documenting the racism of others. ( " The Rothschild family are not Jews, but reptilians, and they have the lives of thousands of Jews on his conscience "). He also points out that his first book was financed by a Jewish friend.

Even if Icke himself is the spiritual aspects of his argument to the fore, resolves his statement that " reptilian shapeshifters rule the earth " great astonishment. In this context, Icke also accused his opponents, irrelevant and shortened illustrate this point, in order to use it against him.

Worth mentioning

An interview that the BBC presenter Terry Wogan with David Icke led in 1991, finished in January 2007 to ninth place in a vote in which the "best TV interview of all time" was chosen by television viewers. As a result of this interview Icke was ridiculed for the next few years in the UK.
