Boston Top News Examiner article attacking David Icke and Infowars
I'd better get it out of the way that I do not agree with everything stated by David Icke; I'm not particularly concerned by the possibility that the global elite are reptillians and I don't believe in the New Age/spiritual stuff. But hey, to each his own.
There exists, in my view, a false smear that Icke is an anti-Semite, or that he is a neo-Nazi. The best place to start with this is the infamous Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion. This, for the uninitiated, is a text from the late 1800s supposedly detailing a Jewish elite's plan for world conquest.
The Protocols have been said to be a forgery, and a hoax. In a sense this is correct. However, if you read what is in the Protocols, it does bear semblance to real-world events that followed during the 20th Century, and which are continuing: the push for world economic and ultimately military dictatorship is very real. Does this mean that the Protocols were right all along? No.
There does exist a global elite. Some say they are Jewish - personally I disagree. The history of the house of Rothschild, for example, is one of a Jewish connection, support for Zionism, and financial control. Are the three things related? Not necessarily. The concept of the 'elite Jewish bankers' outlined by many including Hitler is not essentially true - as Icke said, they don't give a damn about ordinary Jews, as it is clear that Hitler was funded by big money from the Anglosphere.
I don't personally believe that the globalist conspiracy is a Jewish one...just the example of 'them' funding Hitler above is fairly damning to that claim. As I have said before, if there is a religious ideology driving their work, it is Satanism (evidence for this coming from Bohemian Grove among other things...doesn't look very Jewish to me...)
So, if the elite aren't Jewish, why is Icke saying they are? The answer is that this is another thing myself and Icke would disagree on. It is indisputable that large numbers of Zionists (distinguishing Zionist from Jew at this point) are connected to the power elite, whether via AIPAC, or big banks, or the Israeli Government.
"We the Jewish people control America" - Ariel Sharon
The Israeli influence on America is obvious, clear and uncontestable. The unconditional support from the US for a racist state that has done little but ethnically cleanse (^) since its inception, is in my opinion shameful. This leads some to decide that Israel is the pinnacle of global power today, and thus that the globalist One World Government/New World Order conspiracy is Jewish or Zionist in nature. With this I do not agree - it's over-simplistic.
So I believe that the Protocols, or the texts from which the Protocols were apparently copied, are genuine in a sense. They outline the structure of the global conspiracy quite well. But they make it look as if the eternal Jew is responsible for it all, which looks like classic divide and conquer to me. The elites can then hide behind Judaism and Israel, and make it look as if 'the Jews' are to blame for their actions.
The ADL have to be mentioned here too. They smear anything anti-New World Order as being anti-Semitic; it's what they do, they are a hate group. They were also involved in writing the recent MIAC report calling libertarians terrorists. They cite the Protocols as an example of why anti NWO people are Jew haters.
This is another reason why the Protocols were most likely a fraud to label the globalist agenda as being Jewish, so that anyone who recognised and opposed it could easily be painted an anti-Semite. Ironically, the ADL does everything they can to encourage anti-Semitism by these actions, but I think people shouldn't take the bait.
So, after explaining the background to what I would call a vicious smear, is Icke a neo-Nazi? Let's take a look, shall we...
- Does he believe in racial supremacy and racial ideology? No.
- Does he believe the world Jewry is a plague on the Earth? No, he merely said once that the elite of the planet are Jewish. Not something I agree with but hardly neo-Nazi. Also, his main claim about the elites is that they are reptillians from another dimension; I hadn't heard he had said they were Jewish before until this was pointed out. The two hardly go hand in hand.
- Does he say the Holocaust never happened or that it was justified, or that it should be repeated? No.
- Does he have an admiration for Adolf Hitler? No.
- Does he endorse eugenics? No, he opposes the eugenics/Nazi-related global elite.
- Does he support a fascist political agenda? No, he opposes the NWO's fascist political agenda.
Seig Icke! Or not.
ADL smear on Icke:
Left-wing/Anarchist
Icke, David. Added 9/30/01.
In an essay on his Web site titled "Alice in Wonderland and the WTC disaster," conspiracy theorist and anti-Semite David Icke writes, "If you are looking for the force behind the U.S. atrocities, just ask: who benefits?" According to Icke, the September 11 attacks were the doing of the Illuminati, "the force that seeks to control this world and introduce its global fascist state." Although the world was moving towards global centralized fascism, Icke writes, it was not moving fast enough to suit the elites, who saw opposition to their globalization plans growing. As a result, they planned something of "enormous magnitude" that would "so devastate the collective human mind" that "solutions" could be offered that "would advance the agenda in a colossal leap almost overnight." According to Icke, Osama Bin Laden, though "deeply misguided," is no more responsible for the attacks than Icke was. He was the equivalent of Lee Harvey Oswald, a convenient villain upon which the crime could be blamed.
'Cause all that sounds sooo anti-Semitic! And the Illuminati are not necessarily Jewish either, just to clear that up. They are allegedly a satanic cult as much as anything else. Some claim they are Jewish, personally again I don't agree. Ordinary Jewish people wouldn't endorse their crimes or their strange rituals as displayed at the Grove. Some do have Jewish blood relations, some are ostensibly Jews/Zionists, but again the broad-brush generalisation only plays into their hands.
And on that note,
Neutrei Karta
Jews Against Zionism
Jews sans frontieres
The good Jews, and there are plenty of them, are taking back their faith from being used as a shield by the globalists. The ADL would probably call them vehement anti-Semites.
Finally, the link in the smear between Icke and Alex Jones is unfair. The two have not got along at all until recently - Icke isn't a regular writer for Infowars and Jones notably described Icke as a "turd in the punch bowl" a few years ago for his alleged mixing of credible and not-so-credible information.
Jones (and his Jewish wife) have been accused of being secret Zionists who lead those in the Freedom Movement astray from the 'truth' that the Jews are behind it all. If you really want to call someone in Concpiracy Land a neo-Nazi, I would suggest you start with Prothink.org (real pro-fascist neo-Nazis) before slandering Icke or Infowars.
The Freedom Movement never is, was, or will be about race; the philosophy of liberty views people as sovereign individuals, not parts of a collective of any kind - so how can a race or any other simplistic group type be declared evil? Liberty is the antithesis of collectivism, racism, fascism, tyranny and all of the problems we experience in our society today. As I have written before, the flawed left wing/right wing philosophy has to be abandoned so that people can rediscover the idea of liberty, in the spirit of the American Founding Fathers, John Locke, and others.
Icke wants to break the psychological enslavement of the left-right paradigm, so does Jones, and millions of people who are waking up to global tyranny that can and will be defeated. Not a victory for neo-Nazism, rather a defeat for that and a victory for liberty!
