I am interested in the validity of a few of the more substantianal conspiracy theories but if i wanted to take things further and interview someone 'controversial' who gives people who don't belive in any other possibilities further reaon to mock, then I would make my own website to futher my own interests/prejudices rather than browbeat someone who has created/upkept one themselves to further my own goals...seems a bit lazy and a bit taking the piss to expect others to take any possible flack.
No, I'm not saying that, you are simply seeking to twist my words.Loki said:
When Icke was interviewed for the 'top 10 conspiracies' programme a while back (strangely, they didn't mention 9-11) they quizzed him about the lizards. He said, quite commendably IMO, that he wouldn't go into that with a short interview because it requires 'fantastic explanation'. I'm not going to attempt such fantastic explanation for him in a thread like this!
The fact that you objected so strongly to him appearing on U75 radio rather suggests that your apparent interest in such an explanation is a contrived one.

AHA!!!
thats what they want you to think!!!!

Thats probly my fault...I bumped the thread when I noticed a poster (who has yet to post) by the name of "DavidIcke" ...It wasn't really meant to further the debate, but, was in actual fact one of my typicaly hilarious and very funny posts. In my humble opinion, of course.Dante said:
I just want to know why Reptiles anyway?...why not marsupials or arachnids or flesh eating bacteria? or computer programs?...that would be the go!...if they were computer programs!...Tell him to make some famous people computer programs Doc !!.
Wess said:
it's specifically reptiles because if you go back in history many societies portrayed their demons, gods, heavenly rulers and whatever as reptiles...
he also seems to draw on what are seen by some as uncreditable intrepretations of the ancient texts, the sumarian tablets for example.

I just read this thread.
How depressing. Well I'm in that kind of mood anyway. Still there were a few laughs along the way.
Apart from the few intelligent contributions from people who suggested a debate, which is what it ought to be, I reckon most of you are full of shit.
Anti-Semitism means disliking people because they're jewish, not disliking some Jewish people for other reasons. And that's fucking obvious .
Shape-shifting lizards certainly sounds barking to me. But then there are a lot of people who seem to be prepared to treat most of humanity like they're another species, so I can understand why someone might come up with the idea.
Personally I don't like David Icke. I think his ideas drive people who are going nuts over the edge. I've seen this. But madness itself is an interesting topic. And it's worth looking at. And pressuring Mation into stopping the show because you don't like the content. One small show. It's crap. If you'd been born in a different era, you'd have approved of Mary Whitehouse.
And so is the editor's line. "I don't want to waste my time debating with the guy." Quite prepared to waste a lot more time making sure the show doesn't happen. Though if he doesn't want to meet him, fair enough. But it's not the time that's the issue. The only way to decide where speculation becomes madness is by listening to it. Not deciding in advance.

Actually, I was born in that era, so you can shove your patronising remarks right up your Lord Longford*.ZWord said:
But get this in your head: I'm under no obligation whatsoever to provide a platform for unchallenged party political broadcasts for barking fruitloops, although the decision to not to go ahead with the interview was decided democratically amongst those people involved with the radio station.
Mind you, DrJazzz's underhand tactics in not initially revealing the name of his 'guest' and trying to set up an interview where he'd be the only one asking the marshmallow-soft questions didn't exactly endear people to his idea. It wouldn't have been an interview - it would have been an hour long fawn-in and that doesn't make good radio.
But if you think that most of the contributors to this site are "full of shit", then there's really nothing stopping you fucking off elsewhere. Really.
I'm sure there's lots of really great sites out there just dying to hear your wise words and deep, deep - nay, subaquatic! - cod-philosophical ramblings about the "only way to decide where speculation becomes madness is by listening to it. Not deciding in advance."
But, frankly, your witterings appear rather pompous and puffed up to me.
(*note: elderly readers should get the Lord Longford reference!)

Is there any chance David could stop you acting like a prat?
editor said:
Well you're not actually over eighty. I don't think most of the contributors to the site are full of shit, I think most of them on this thread are. If you can't see how arrogant it is of you to think that you are an infallible arbiter of what is and isn't reasonable discourse, you're being stupid.
No-one said you were under an obligation to. But I would never have expected a site like this to try and put a certain type of thought beyond the fringe. That's probably what a lot of other sites do, in order to give them character. I expect lefties get binned pretty quickly on freerepublic. But it should be obvious to you that actually quite a lot of people are interested in some aspects of what you call conspiralunacy. And not being able to tolerate is just small-minded.

Mary Whitehouse didn't step down as president of the National Viewers' and Listeners' Association until 1994, you clueless pillock.ZWord said:
How many more times until it sinks in?ZWord said:
I didn't decide that Icke shouldn't be interviewed. That decision was reached by the democratic agreement of those involved in the radio station.
As regards what gets discussed here, it's not permissable for a tiny minority of individuals to keep endlessly parroting the same bullshit, month after month, whatever the topic.
You may have missed it, but over the years just about every possible nutjob 9/11 conspiracy theory has been discussed to death here, ad infinitum.
There's been tens of thousands of 9/11 posts slapped up here, read by an ever declining audience.
As editor, I've decided there's no benefit in having the same stuff endlessly regurgitated here, so - just like the equally useless kitten threads before them - any new threads repeating the same thing all over agan gets binned.
And guess what?
Hardly a soul ever complains because the majority of people are fed up with seeing the same bollocks day in, day out.
You see, these boards weren't set up as a handy, high profile one-stop repository for every bonkers conspiraloon theory circulating the web, so you're looking in the wrong place if you want to keep 'discussing' the same fact-free yarns.
I will not have obsessed tinfoilers hijacking the hard-earned popularity of the boards.
If ever I need a lecture on what topics should be discussed on a hugely successful bulletin board, I'll ask thanks.ZWord said:

This is a non profit website run by people in their spare time.
Only a fucking idiot would draw comparisons with the House of Commons.
You're sounding more like a troll with every post, you know. I suspect that stuff about you claiming top have seen 9/11 predicted in "alien comics" should have got me reaching for the ban button...
