Satan goes to the Games

The opening ceremonies of the London Games were a barely-concealed Satanic ritual steeped in mind-controlling symbols and electromagnetic waves.

This take on Danny Boyle's spectacle comes from David Icke, a man who used to be a household name in Britain as a BBC commentator in news and sports. He even covered the 1998 Olympics for the national broadcaster.

Twenty-two years ago, he told interviewers with the website The Truth Is Now, "the top of my head blew off." Eyes open to the reptilian overlords that were controlling us, Icke started writing (19 books) and speaking (DVDs, YouTube videos) about what's really controlling the world.

And now, in Britain, things are as controlling as they could possibly get, a summer of "mass ritual after mass ritual" full of flames and torches during the Queen's Jubilee through the Olympic torch run to the opening ceremonies themselves with the lighting of the cauldron. And the bells, says Icke. Bells ringing for the Queen, bells for the Games.

Pomp and ceremony, he says, is just Satanic ritual in disguise. Red and black are the devil's colours. Most deviously, he said, was getting all those people together, corraling a confluence of electromagnetic waves so they could more easily be manipulated.
