I see no "PROOF" in your source. I would take any statements from David Icke with a large lump of salt.

Many people believe that the moon does not rotate, since the face of the moon is always facing the earth. But this is NOT TRUE!!. The moon rotates at exactly the PERFECT speed to keep the face pointing at the earth as the moon rotates in orbit. Furthermore, even though the moon's orbit is steadily increasing in distance from the earth year after year, the rotation of the moon slows at just the right decay to keep the face pointed directly at the earth as the orbit slows. The chances of this happening are impossible.
And still no answer as to why the planets are not Tidally locked to the sun, yet the moons are???

Distance.
Check the details of gravity, and especially the "inverse square" rule of gravitational force, and attraction.
