Conspiracy researcher and alternative historian David Icke has become credited with coming up with the idea that shapeshifting reptilians from an alien race control the world. Many people find the idea impossible to believe in and have ridiculed the author for presenting this material.

Many say that Icke is discrediting other serious and factual areas of conspiracy theory and research. It has even been suggested that he is a disinformation agent and that this is a plot to ensure that conspiracy theorists are not taken seriously.

The point most people miss is that the idea is not David's and he does not claim to have witnessed reptilians himself, although he has had a very bizarre encounter with former UK Prime Minister Ted Heath, who is among the long list of people believed to be reptilian shapeshifters to varying degrees according to the purity or not of their bloodline.

What actually happened was that David met with a large number of people in a small amount of time who all told him stories and personal experiences with reptilians and that was enough for him to take the matter seriously.

The facts are that worldwide we have reptile images in religious works and in cultural traditions. Wales has the emblem of the dragon and China is well known for the importance their culture has attached to this giant reptile. Christian churches often have reptilian gargoyles. The Bible makes reference to a the Devil as being a Serpent and "the Great Dragon." In the mythology and religions of India there are many references to serpents and flying dragons and reptilian beings known as Nagas. In the heraldry of the UK dragons are often featured. A dragon is found in the coat-of-arms of Puerto de la Cruz in Tenerife where I live.

So the big question is what are all these dragons and references to giant reptiles about, if not to actual beings that were or are on this planet? If they are the memory of dinosaurs that in itself throws the history we have been taught out the window because humans and these giant lizards were not living in the same time era according to science. If the dragons we are presented with in stories and in religions are fictional or symbolic the question remains: what inspired these ideas?

If we can believe in life from other worlds - and I most certainly do believe this - then why is the idea of reptilian beings so hard to take on board? The reptilians that David Icke and others are talking about are also known as the Draco, which are extraterrestrial beings that are said to have come to this solar system and this planet long long ago.

Of the people that Icke met who told him about the reality of the reptilians the Zulu shaman Credo Mutwa, the recovered mind-control victims Cathy O'Brien, Stewart Swerdlow and Arizona Wilder are all included here in videos so you can hear these people speak and make up your own minds what you make of it all.

I have only put the first video of the series available for each speaker on YouTube but you can easily find the other parts on the website. Andromedan contactee Alex Collier describes the Draco as a reality as well.

Credo Mutwa explains to David that in the Zulu history the reptilian beings are known as Chitauri and he claims that the grey aliens are also reptiles but they work for the more powerful Draco.

UFO researcher Peggy Kane has taken her investigation even further than Icke and in fact claims that he left himself wide open to being fooled and used by the reptilians when he used the entheogen ayahuasca. There is an online interview with Peggy talking about her beliefs here: http://www.geocities.com/zacherle_hoag/peggy_kane.html

The basic idea is that the Draco when they first came here set themselves up as, and were believed to be gods. They interbred with humans in order to create a superior bloodline for ruling over the other people. In the Bible they are referred to as the Nephilim (Nefilim) and it is said that the "sons of God" interbred with humans.

"When men began to increase in number on the Earth and daughters of men were born to them, the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were beautiful, and they went taking wives of all they chose."

And "The Nefilim were on the Earth in those days - and also afterwards -when the sons of God went to the daughters of men and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown."

Alternative historian and conspiracy researcher Michael Tsarion puts a slightly different spin on it and says that the Anunnaki were an alien race who were pursued here as criminals from another galaxy. These beings tried fooling their pursuers by pretending to be on the then existing planet Tiamat, which was subsequently blown up and formed the asteroid belt.

Tsarion says that the Annunaki interbred with the humans on the Earth where they had hidden and that they were trying to create a slave race to serve them. He maintains that the mixing of alien and human DNA was the origin of all evil on this planet and accounts for everything which is wrong with people.

Michael Tsarion disagrees that the reptilians are an alien race, however. He says that they were another hybrid race produced here when the Anunnaki hybridised with reptiles found on Earth. Otherwise his material is in agreement that an alien race came here, interbred with humans and has controlled things since in a covert way.

Icke claims that the royal families and those that presidents and prime ministers are selected from are all reptile and human hybrid bloodline families. He claims that these world leaders are not chosen by the people but are already chosen according to their bloodline and in accordance with the overall plans of the Illuminati. The Illuminati families are all reptilian bloodline too.

He also explains that there are other reptilians that exist in another frequency or dimension and that they can possess and control humans from there whilst remaining unseen. These would be the equivalent of what we call demons.

Stewart Swerdlow talks at great length about the reptilian agenda and the Draco in his book Blue Blood, True Blood: Conflict and Creation. Stewart says that the reptilians were originally created by some beings he calls "the transparent people" and he reveals how they were "programmed to conquer and absorb all of the races and species that they encountered." He also adds that they are programmed "to believe that they are the superior physical form."

Swerdlow explains how the Draco warred with the humanoid Lyraens who fled to other parts of the galaxy including the Pleiades and the Earth.

He says that most of the Draco are androgynous and reproduce by parthenogenesis or cloning themselves but there is also a male group that conquers and hybridises with other races. Sounds very much like the "sons of God."

On the subject of hybridisation of vastly different species you are probably thinking this doesn't make any sense because it is widely known that you cannot mate one animal with another of a different type and expect offspring, however, by genetic manipulation you can. This is exactly what scientists are doing now when they are placing genetic information from very different lifeforms in combination with other genes to create new varieties.

There is the idea that this tinkering with the DNA structure was what was done by evil scientists in Atlantean days and that it is a bad sign to see that it is happening again.

My personal belief about reptilians is that they are no more evil than any other predatory or parasitic species of which there are countless types. It is difficult for us to not see them as incredibly evil but they are doing as their programme tells them to do, as Swerdlow has explained. However, because they seek to see us as their prey means it is quite right for us to wish to protect ourselves from these predators. Unless we know about them this is a very hard thing to do, and that is exactly why the reptilians have been so successful - because they operate covertly and because anyone today who is trying to expose them as a reality is likely to become a target for ridicule.
