Interesting piece of history. On the left is Zecharia Sitchin, man of many hats. Sitchin says the Sumerian tablets are unequivocal. A very long time ago, an alien species called the Annunaki (or the Elohim in the bible) came to our planet to mine the monoatomic gold in order to purify their own planet Nibiru's atmosphere.
They may have stretched the story a bit to give themselves the leadership mystique.
"And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness".
Monotheism is a big deal and yet God isn't plural here. He's not chilling with other Gods, so that is more likely Anunnaki speak for 'we're the big kahunas round here'.
The Annunaki couldn't keep their hands off our women. Sleeping downstairs I think the Victorians termed it. But it's also recorded in the Bible and on the Sumerian tablet.
Genesis 6:2 That the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were beautiful; and they took wives for themselves, whomever they chose.
That's where the bloodline thing started. The half breeds of the hybrids and Annunaki are a bit spesh. Like that royal wedding hysteria you all wet your knickers over yesterday. Those blue bloods are, as Princess Diana used to say before they murdered her 'not human'.
Zecharia Sitchin had CIA links back in the day, and it's fair to say he guided the cultural narrative of the Annunaki with their assistance.
My assumption is he cut a deal where he did favours from time to time. Even with good book sales, Sitchin's Upper West Side lifestyle was incommensurate with independent research.
Here he is being interviewed by Jordan Maxwell (note the Masonic handshake). Jordan is not an intellectual, and insists he's no scholar and is always humbly stating that he's just an ordinary man pursuing extraordinary knowledge. That's true but Jordan has particular pattern recognition skills that enable him to spot important symbolism most of us are not able to.
Ancient bloodlines, secret societies, paternal orders, symbolism, etymology, astro-theology and all these topics align with the texts on those Sumerian cuneiform tablets. I guess Jordan pursued Sitchin and not vice versa, but it is telling that the maverick scholar gives both the time and honour to the amateur sleuth both publicly and I hear privately. Like an Inspector Morse sharing the cryptic crossword with Detective Colombo out of respect. My only question is did he do this to keep his enemies close?
Again pure speculation, but if you read Sitchin's Wikipedia entry and the one he gave to the New York Times it's all over the map. Israel to Shiite Iraq, Azeri American to University of London educated Russian. It's the mark of someone hiding his past and living a life of deception. One that paid handsomely for Zecharia Sitchin.
