Protocols of Zion and David Icke

Example 38: Protocols of Zion and David Icke:

To summarise information given in the Introduction to this section, the infamous 1902 forgery, the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion purports to reveal a Jewish conspiracy to dominate the world, and variants of this conspiracy theory are very much alive today. It is complete fiction. Fear and hatred of Jews lie behind such attempts to persuade people that such a conspiracy exists. The Protocols is still disseminated today, and is from time to time referred to by certain demagogic political figures in some middle-Eastern countries such as Iran, despite the fact that it was proven conclusively to be a forgery many decades ago. It also forms part of David Icke’s conspiracy theory.

David Icke has been a professional footballer, a sports reporter, and for a time one of the Green Party's chief spokespeople. He then became involved in conspiracist political activity. His overarching conspiracy theory states that an interdimensional race of reptilian beings has hijacked the earth and are manipulating global events to keep humans in constant fear, and eventually to cause World War III. Although not all the powerful reptilian beings he identifies are Jewish, many are, including the Rothschilds; he believes the Protocols was not a forgery, and regularly regurgitates Nazi and pre-Nazi antisemitic propaganda, including that Jews financed Hitler, while his website advertises Holocaust denial material. Indeed, his books and talks have endorsed many of the antisemitic ideas we describe.

He speaks to packed audiences in many locations and has a worryingly large following. Icke also has close links with Richie Allen who presents a TV show which promotes some of the conspiracy theories with which Icke is associated, and in which some members of mainstream political parties have occasionally appeared. Most latterly Icke has become involved with Covid conspiracy theory (see below). In our experience, it is common for left-wing people to post antisemitic material alongside endorsements of David Icke’s theories. Here, Kim Cousins, a left-wing 'activist', is recommending his works.

The theory below seems gobbledgook, but note 'Dragon is on earth and served by the Illumnati [sic], the British houses, the Kazzar [sic] Jew houses' (see 'The Khazar myth' in the Erasure section for explanation of this):
