Author and lecturer David Icke returned for a discussion on his work revealing the Global Conspiracy. "Fear is the four letter word that controls the world," he said, outlining how an elite transnational group at the top of a pyramid of control, secretly pulls the strings. The current economic crisis with various bank and company failures allows the elite to further centralize their power, and quicken the rate of globalization, he commented.

Icke believes these global elite, who come from ancient bloodlines, seek to create a world central bank, a single electronic currency, and a microchipped population they can control. He described the scenario as like a gigantic virtual reality computer game, with the elite themselves ultimately controlled by a "disembodied consciousness."

The period leading up to 2012 could be a crucial time, with an enormous vibrational change taking place, he said. People have the potential to wake up, fend off their enslavement, and realize that the few cannot control the many, Icke declared.
