From the back cover

     “Since that horrendous day of September 11th 2001, the people of the world have been told the Big Lie. The official story of what happened on 9/11 is a fantasy of untruth, manipulation, contradiction and anomaly. David Icke has spent well over a decade uncovering the force that was really behind those attacks and has traveled to 40 countries in pursuit of the truth. He has exposed their personnel, methods and agenda in a series of books and videos.

     “Therefore, when the attacks came, it was easy to recognize the Hidden Hand behind the cover story of 'Bin Laden did it.' Icke takes apart the official version of 9/11 and the 'war on terrorism' and shows that those responsible are much closer to home than a cave in Afghanistan. He explains why 9/11 was planned and to what end. It is vital to maintaining our freedom, and to the memory of those who died and the loved ones left behind, that the light shines on the lies and deceit behind September 11th.

     “Icke also places these events in their true context as part of an agenda by hidden forces working behind the puppet politicians to create a global fascist state based on total control and surveillance. But it doesn't have to be like this; it does not have to happen. We can change the world from a prison to a paradise and, as Icke explains, the power to do that is within you and within us all.”

Icke and the Reptilian Brain

Most controversial of David Icke's ideas are the ones having to do with people who operate primarily from the reptilian area of their brains. Here are a few of his thoughts on this subject:

     “The more we understand the reptilian mind the more we can understand both the behavior of the Illuminati across the centuries and the global society they are creating. ... [after quoting Skip Largent as saying that at least five human behaviors originate in the reptilian brain and that they find their expression in various ways including slavish conformance to old ways of doing things and obeisance to religious precedent . . . Icke adds] . . . Add other traits of the reptilian brain such as 'territoriality', an obsession with hierarchical structures or rule and control, aggression . . .”

Before you judge David Icke's work solely from the opinions of his critics, you may want to do yourself the service of reading his work for yourself and come to your own conclusions about precisely what Icke is saying about reptilian consciousness.
