Alice in Wonderland and the World Trade Center Disaster
Since the horrendous day of September 11th 2001, the people of the world have been told the Big Lie. The official story of what happened on 9/11 is a fantasy of untruth, manipulation, contradiction and anomaly. David Icke has spent well over a decade uncovering the force that was really behind those attacks and has traveled to 40 countries in pursuit of the truth. He has exposed their personnel, methods and agenda in a series of books and videos.
Therefore, when the attacks came, it was easy to recognise the Hidden Hand behind the cover story of "Bin Laden did it". Icke takes apart the official version of 9/11 and the "war on terrorism" and shows that those responsible are much closer to home than a cave in Afghanistan. He explains why 9/11 was planned and to what end. It is vital to maintaining our freedom, and to the memory of those who died and the loved ones left behind, that the light shines on the lies and deceit behind September 11th.
Icke also places these events in their true context as part of an agenda by hidden forces working behind the puppet politicians to create a global fascist state based on total control and surveillance. But it doesn't have to be like this; it does not have to happen. We can change the world from a prison to a paradise and, as Icke explains, the power to do that is within you and within us all.

This is my second Icke book.
It is a painstakingly researched investigation of the World Trade Center Disaster and includes all possible background material about Bush, the bloodlines, DNA corruption, the Illuminati and so forth i.e. the basic "Ickeian" information the author feels is indispensable.
With all the inconsistencies, withheld information, downright lies, etc, etc exposed by Icke, you would have to be mind-controlled or brain dead not to be 100% convinced of the total lack of veracity of the official explanation of the World Trade Center Disaster after reading this book from cover to cover, or even one complete chapter (if a braindead person can read, that is). The problem is that you would not be able to get the majority of people to even attempt to read this book. They would prefer to remain in ignorant bliss and continue to lead their superficial, "sheepie" (if that is Icke's word) lives.
I was beginning to think that we were going to be spared/by-pass the reptilian theme, but no. Icke reverts to the matter in the final chapter, and each time I read it I take it in more and more. And I'd have been disappointed if the reptilian material had been lacking. But whatever, don't let the reptiles deflect you from the absolutely undeniable truth about the WTC attack.
Again, the author's final message is: Love and respect yourself, Love and respect all things, Love is the answer. One of his final statements is: I love you, George Bush.
I agree with the totality of the views Icke presents. This is an amazing truth-presenting book written by an immensely gifted, knowledgeable and insightful man. Read it if you dare!

This was a hard book for me to get through. Not because the book is not well-researched, but because there's so many names in it, and there's a lot of jumping around in time.
I understand what the author was trying to do : give us background information on the people that explained the meaning of 9/11 to the rest of the world. As such, the book is mostly about the Bush family, their companies and their connections. The book also suggest that the Oklahoma bombing a couple of years earlier was a similar type of event, meant to further the process of centralization of power.
If you've not read a book of David Icke before, you might give this one a try. Even if you only get the gist of it, it will still make you look at the world with different eyes.

You get a lot of good solid verifiable stuff on the neo-cons, 9/11 and the new world order in this book. There is less disinformation in this than anything else Icke has wrote and even the disinfo has some truth interwoven into it this time. Regardless I still have a hard time trusting Icke.
Alice in Wonderland is worth reading if you can borrow it from the library but when you consider there are multitudes of better books on 9/11 and exposing the new world order plus the very high price they are asking for this book I wouldn't recomend it buying it.

David Icke seems to think that saying "evidence exists" and then repeating the point you are trying to prove constitutes actual evidence. The same thing almost kept me from finishing The Biggest Secret, it did keep me from finishing this book. Besides, I sincerely doubt a conspiracy of the scope he describes could operate secretly for 2 weeks, much less for thousands of years. From what he describes thousands if not millions of people would have to be actively participating. The guy is either a crank or is putting out dis-information.

4.5/5
Yet another in a a long line of meticulous and compelling works by Icke, and one of the finest disseminations of the absolute nonsense official story of 9/11. As a comprehensively researched and compiled work, detailing a single event, this remains a seminal work in Icke's catalogue, as never before or since has he dedicated so much time to one area of 'the conspiracy'. As a comprehensive account of what is transpiring in our world as a whole, this book is somewhat less successful. Tacking on a few hundred pages at the end as somewhat of a 'crash course' in the conspiracy, particularly for those who may have been new to this information when picking up this book. As a means to waking up more of the masses, it makes complete sense. As for someone well versed in David's other works, it is somewhat less effective, and you could almost stop reading after his outstanding 9/11 takedown, as there will be nothing that you haven't really heard before, and better spend your time reading his other works for a more thorough and complete account of why ew are in the mess we are in. That being said, Alice in Wonderland... is still a remarkable work, and despite the time and distance since the event, and far more prescient and problematic times facing us, this remains as vital as it ever was, and well worth the investment in time and money. 4.5/5

The most comprehensive book I ever read about 11 September 2001. The 9/11 inside job done by the Bush neoconservative Zionist government with the help of the Israel Moss-ad in the line of many other "False Flag" operations done by the CIA and Israel. David Icke must have some insight in the ins and outs of secret services otherwise he would not be able to write such a book. It reads like a novel but it is about the reality of the masonic psychopathic rulers who run the world. All in the line of Adam Weisshaupt's Illuminati and the protocols of Sion. The planting of explosives under de supervision of Marvin Bush is a fact one cannot find in the mainstream media but on the internet. In short: a staggering book!

Down the rabbit hole you go! This topic REALLY pisses people off! It's funny. People are way more likely to talk about ANY other subject than what happened on 9-11. I was a novice 9-11 researcher myself for a couple years. Alot of misinformation out there however, ALOT of unanswered questions and very strange and curious things about that day and the events leading up to it.
It's funny. People identify with their race, nationality and religion and put themselves into a box. This book helps open the top of the box a bit. You still have to decide to crawl out or not. Anyway good book. Not a topic for everyone.

I had done considerable amount of independent investigations into the 911 tale before reading this book but there was still information in this book that I was unaware of. I have personally found that those who believe the official story of 911 ALWAYS have one thing in common... none of them have done any independent investigation on the subject! I found this book to be informative / factual, slightly humorous due to the absurdity of the whole story and well, it also made me angry. It is very well written and well researched.

One of the first books I read on the 9/11 disaster that began to put the pieces together for me. This book goes further back and describes how this event should have been foreseen. That rabbit hole was never investigated any better than by David Icke. Love him or hate him, believe him or not, he does draw a compelling picture that should be looked at by any sane person that wants to understand his world.

I have to admit I skimmed over big chunks of this book. It is interesting, but it is difficult to know what to think about some of the information. At times there is a clear lack of and evidence and yet he makes massive conclusions without explaining why. Maybe one day we'll find out David Icke is the only one who knows what is really going on.

Lazily compiles as many of the conspiracy theories about 9/11 as were circulating in late 2001/early 2002 as possible for the sake of knocking out a book on the subject quickly. Full review: https://fakegeekboy.wordpress.com/201...

Soo much information in so few pages. Hard to know how much of it is true, but interesting nonetheless

THE POPULAR "CONSPIRACIST" AUTHOR/LECTURER LOOKS AT 9/11
David Vaughan Icke (born 1952) is an English writer/speaker, who has written such books as 'Tales from the Time Loop: The Most Comprehensive Expose of the Global Conspiracy Ever Written' and 'All You Need to Know to Be Truly Free,' and given lectures such as 'Radical Truth: Knowledge & Revolution.' He begins this 2002 book, "I will focus for the most part on observing the shocking attacks of September 11th from within what I call the 'five-sense prison'---the 'world' that we see, hear, touch, smell and taste... But in the final chapter I will observe the attacks of 9/11 from a much wider perspective and only then can they be seen in their greater context."
He notes early in the book, "The bloodlines that seek to control the world and our lives today are the same bloodlines that ruled the ancient societies. They are the presidents of the United States, the prime ministers, the leading banking and business families, the media owners and those who control the military." (Pg. 5) He refers to former President Bush as "a notorious pedophile, torturer and killer of children" (Pg. 63), and asserts, "Show me a member of the 'Religious Right' and I'll show you a hypocrite..." (Pg. 135)
He asks, "How does anyone believe the media is going to tell us the truth when the very forces that are desperate to deny us the truth own the press and broadcasting?... These are the people who are 'reporting' the wars and giving you the government propaganda to justify them." (Pg. 191)
He states boldly, "what happened on September 11th ... was calculated mass murder... This was orchestrated incompetence in which forces at... the highest levels of the United States government and military were intervening to stop the system working as it normally would... because it suited the sick agenda for those people to die and for the world to watch it all live on television." (Pg. 265) He later admits, however, that "Obviously I can't say in precise detail how the events of September 11th and their aftermath were pulled off... we need to have someone on the inside who knows the full story and has the courage to speak out." (Pg. 369)
Icke details his contact with U.S. psychic Monnica Sepulveda, who claimed to establish contact with the hijacker leader Mohamed Atta (pg. 371-372). He states again his "reptilian elite" theory: "seeing an apparently human being, often people in power, transform in front of their eyes from a human body to that of a reptilian entity." (Pg. 466)
Icke's book adds little to the "empirical" side of 9/11 "Truther" arguments (cf. David Ray Griffin), but it is an interesting extension of his own ideas, and will be of interest to his legions of fans.

Lot of substance in this work
This book , even though it is detailed and corroborated in the footnotes, is not so much as a whodunnit, or pointing fingers at people or countries, it achieves two goals.
First you have the information about the event.
Secondly, you are given a framework in which to view the event; and a reason to move away from the official narrative.
The answer lies within each of us a to how we file not only this event, but also the daily chaos we face and how the fear of it is used.
Excellent book. Only a suggestion: if you start the book, stick with it . There are key points especially in the final phase of the book that demonstrate the way out of all the turmoil we face.

Only a little bit in so far, but the information is outdated, so that takes away from the shock value it may have had when it was released. I'm looking forward to how it relates to Alice in Wonderland.

Bizarre, twisted, dense conspiracy upon conspirace, kind of like falling down the rabbit hole and find demons and warped history.

Excellent read!!! So many lies told to us.

Third Icke book. Tons of information provided for the reader to decide what reality they want to be part of.
Enough sourced material for people to begin their own Enlightment journey.

Very long and thorough book. I recommend it even if I don't believe everything Mr. Icke believes about 9/11.
February 27, 2014
Buon saggio cospirazionistico sull'11 settembre e sulle sue conseguenze.
Ci ho messo molto tempo a finirlo, non perchè le nozioni esposte non fossero interessanti, ma per altri motivi: innanzitutto il primo terzo del libro non parla dell'11 settembre, ma dello scenario entro cui sono avvenuti quei fatti. Quindi pagine e pagine di date, nomi, rapporti di potere tra i vari soggetti coinvolti, antefatti, a volte anche parecchio distanti nel tempo, racconti di cronaca americana, ecc. Sono comunque cose che è bene sapere, ma che ovviamente non hanno mordente.
Il succo del discorso arriva dopo pagina 200, 250, ed è il pezzo forte del saggio: Icke smonta pezzo per pezzo la tesi ufficiale, oltre a demolire tutte le dichiarazioni del gorverno statunitense e altri soggetti collegati, e lo fa con una meticolosità incredibile, supportando ogni sua frase da fatti e numeri verificabili.
L'ultimo capitolo è quello più difficile da metabolizzare, perchè Icke si lancia nelle sue teorie sui rettiliani e su entità che controllerebbero il destino dell'umanità da un universo parallelo.
In conclusione, fosse stato di 200 pagine più corto, l'efficiacia del libro non ne avrebbe risentito. Così com'è, è ad ogni modo apprezzabile l'enorme sforzo lavorativo e di documentazione che Icke ha fatto.

I have to admit that when I saw this title I was a little put back this was my first introduction to the man. I actually put off reading it for over a year. It was still a bit close to the attack when I saw it.
I have to say that it was a real eye opener in my vision. Well thought out documented and arranged. Even if you don't buy into the conspiracy there is to much to question here to be all crap.
Please read this story....

Man. I hope he is wrong on some of it, but it does seem quite well researched.

Do yourself a favor and only read from about chapter 6 to chapter 14 ish... the guy comes across as a raving looney but his analysis of the actual events of 11/sept is well done.
January 31, 2014
Why the official story of 9/11 doesn't add up. Gets pretty wild when he goes into the Illuminati and New World Order. Good when describing the actual events of 9/11.
January 31, 2010
Thought it was all plausible until the last chapter.

A very good book. So many statements, so many questions. Read and research and find out for yourself how deep the rabbithole goes....
