David G. Robertson in his book, UFOs, Conspiracy Theories and the New Age, stated that Icke was not anti-Semitic. Saying that in order to believe that when Icke said reptilians he really meant Jews, was just easier for some to accept than that he literally means extraterrestrial reptilians control world politics. Pointing out that in order to believe the accusations of anti-Semitism you must ignore numerous things. Such as, the many high profile people he names as reptilian who are not Jewish, a point which was also made by Jon Ronson in his 2001 documentary Secret Rulers Of The World. You must also ignore the frequent statements by Icke that he is speaking literally and not metaphorically. And you must ignore the fact he identifies the supposedly reptilian ruling elite as 'Aryan' in several places, which specifically contradicts the idea that reptilian is code for 'Jew'. Also noting that Icke denounces racism calling it "the ultimate idiocy" Robertson also pointed out that Icke has never been a member of any right wing group, and has criticised them.
