Epstein Case: Another Manifestation of Israeli Influence Over Western MSM

By Alireza Hashemi

In a world with functioning media, the Guardian, the New York Times, the BBC and other MSM outlets would vie to dig out the truth in the case and reveal Epstein’s affiliation with Israel.
Epstein’s shocking case involving hundreds of victims has been followed by the public for months, with people wondering how the monster had avoided a public trial and got away real punishment for years.
Epstein was convicted in a sex-related case in 2008, but he evaded strict sentencing and served only a year in prison.
This year, he was implicated in a separate case. But this time he had been denied bail and faced up to 45 years behind bars on federal sex trafficking and conspiracy charges.
The Epstein controversy has all the hallmarks of a major espionage case, but it appears that no one in the mainstream media is interested in such angels.
The MSM has scantily pointed to Epstein’s connections with Israel and his Jewish roots.  
It seems the MSM are instead concealing the shame by hyping sexual aspects of the case.
 A Sexual Blackmail Operation?
Let’s have a recap of the evidence suggesting Epstein’s case could have espionage dimensions.
The pedophile was operating his sex network out of his properties in New York and Florida as well as his private island in the Caribbean.
His mansions were reportedly equipped with hidden cameras and microphones in the bedrooms, which could be used to record sexual encounters between high-profile guests and teen girls, who were recruited to provide “massaging” services to customers.
The filming procedure smacks of a sophisticated intelligence service gathering material to blackmail politicians and public figures.
Those blackmailed would undoubtedly cooperate with the services involved to avoid a major scandal.
Most likely, Epstein was laying the groundwork for Israeli espionage activities. There is almost no other viable explanation for his filming of big politicians and celebrities having sex with young women.
According to the New York Times, a trove of sealed court records name over thousands of people who are connected to Jeffrey Epstein.
Reportedly, Epstein kept a black book identifying many of his social contacts, including Prince Bandar of Saudi Arabia, Tony Blair, Jon Huntsman, Senator Ted Kennedy, Henry Kissinger, David Koch, Alan Dershowitz, John Kerry, George Mitchell, David Rockefeller, Richard Branson, Michael Bloomfield, Dustin Hoffman, Queen Elizabeth, Saudi King Salman and Edward de Rothschild.
Those people are the type of influential figures Israel would seek to coerce into cooperation.
Epstein has been reported to have been particularly close to Clinton, the former US president remembered by his sexual scandal involving the 22-year-old White House intern Monica Lewinsky.
Bill and Jeffrey were so close that the latter was a major contributor to the Clinton Foundation and was present at the wedding of Chelsea Clinton in 2010.
Epstein was also close to US President Donald Trump and there a handful of photos on the web showing the two besides each other.
In fact, the case gained more traction due to Trump’s role, as Trump’s Democrat opponents were for months calling for the resignation of Trump’s former secretary of labor Alexander Acosta, who had allegedly helped Epstein skip public trial in 2008 as the top federal prosecutor in Miami.
Interestingly, Acosta has openly admitted he went light on Epstein because he was told the financier “belonged to intelligence.”
 Epstein’s Jewish Roots
Many high-profile Jewish players have continued to turn up like bad pennies in the Epstein case, but no reporter in the western media seems to be interested in pursuing that angle.
Epstein, born from Jewish parents in 1953 in New York City, began his working life in 1974 as a teacher at Manhattan’s Dalton School, which was run at the time by the Jewish educator Donald Barr.
Jeffery then changed to the finance world in 1976, joining Bear Sterns, the Wall Street’s quintessential Jewish firm run by Alan Greenberg.
In 1981, Epstein founded his own consulting firm to provide financial services to various governmental and high-profile clients from across the world.
Epstein supported many Jewish organizations and was a board member of the pro-Israel Wexner Foundation. He also had friendship with dozens of Israel supporters, from Alan Dershowitz to Howard Rubenstein to Larry Summers to Gary Ginsberg to Ron Perelman.
Moreover, Epstein appears to have had contact with former Israeli president Shimon Peres and former premier Ehud Barak and had a financial stake in a startup run by Barak that was connected to Israeli’s defense industry. 
Epstein’s contact with the Israeli intelligence may have come through his relationship with Ghislaine Maxwell, who allegedly helped bring him, girl victims. 
Ghislaine is the daughter of the Anglo-Jewish businessman Robert Maxwell, an alleged Mossad spy who was given a state funeral by Israel after he died in 1991.
 MSM Unwilling to Dig for Truth
In a world with functioning media, the Guardian, the New York Times, the BBC and other MSM outlets would vie to dig out the truth in the case and reveal Epstein’s affiliation with Israel.
But the western MSM work hard to divert attention from a fact so obvious to the public: Epstein wasn’t just a shameless pedophile. Most likely, he was an agent affiliated with an intelligence agency, or more than one.
Epstein’s connections with the Israeli leaders have been addressed by the Israeli media, but they have largely focused on Epstein’s ties with Barak, who ran in the Israeli elections earlier this year. Barak has claimed reports on his partnership with Epstein were being published the influence the outcome of the votes.
Interestingly, the pro-Israel Jewish Chronicle has sought to label the espionage speculations as a “conspiracy theory” created by “online theorists”.
 Gross Corruption in Political Class
The investigation into Epstein and his activities stopped late last month, with a federal judge dismissing the charges against the financier and closing the sex trafficking case.
The verdict came less than three weeks after Epstein reportedly hanged himself in his cell.
One could wonder how he managed to kill himself since he attempted to take his own life late July and supposed to have been stripped of anything that could be used for suicide.
With the financier dead, many of his secrets will have gone to the grave with him and it will probably be impossible to shed light the depth of Israeli espionage in the west.
Given the high stakes in the game, most likely there will be a cover-up of what Epstein was all about.
But the case served as yet another example of bias in favor of Israel in the western press.
This should be to nobody’s surprise, as the western mainstream media generally refuses to address cases of Israeli spying against the US.
Similarly, Israel’s war crimes and expansionist policies also go unchallenged by the western MSM.
The fate of this case might prove similar to the 9/11 Report and the Mueller investigation, both of which blocked any examination of the Israeli role.
The case also exposes gross corruption at the top echelons of power in America.
The political class in the west is morally compromised and the mainstream media as a whole do little but veil the truth.
Jeffrey Epstein, the mysterious Wall Street “financier” who reportedly committed suicide early August, has frequently made headlines in the western press in the past couple of months.

Occam’s Razor may be useful in explaining Jeffrey Epstein

By Martin Love

NORTH CAROLINA - Of all the news items hitting the Internet in the U.S. this summer by far the most commentary among general readers involves questions and speculations about the pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, who either committed suicide or was killed inside his prison cell in New York City this past weekend.
He had been denied bail awaiting a trial slated for next summer on various sordid charges that might have resulted in 45 years behind bars – in effect, a death sentence for the 67-year-old alleged financier who over recent decades had played fast and loose with the “elite” whose names are a virtual litany of many of the most visible, powerful politicians, businesspersons and professionals in this current era in American history. 
Every speculation or theory or conspiracy notion almost anyone has offered up in the wake of Epstein’s not so surprising demise well before he could or might have named specifically who among the “elite” (quite possibly Trump himself and certainly Bill Clinton) partook of his services of procuring underage females for sex at one or another of his lavish properties or on his aircraft is and has been fair game since his arrest in early July.
Almost anything is possible, and especially in an America where there is not a single arbiter or trusted voice any longer who has a record of discovering and then telling the truth about virtually anything the U.S. has been about, especially since 9/11 -- which itself has never been adequately examined or explained.
Imagine a world where nothing and no one can be trusted by the average citizen, where people are left to flail around trying to get a valid grip on the truth when the mainstream media, as well as the government, has often either lied outright or failed to tell the whole truth and nothing but.
And worse, Epstein’s death, however or by whom it was accomplished, has come at the same time the FBI has been trying to deem any “conspiracy” theories or notions suggested by the public a literal threat to “national security”. In other words, some or any “official” story concocted by the mainstream media or the government powers, probably in cahoots with each other, must be “accepted” as the truth, period – even if few can believe it. This is an atmosphere of totalitarianism, or something quite close to it.
The stories appearing in the mainstream media about Epstein and associates, some of them quite long and detailed, do undoubtedly have a certain prurient interest to the public, as if to tell the public: so THIS is how wealthy and powerful Americans get to live (if they want), this is what they do in a world where anything goes, where gobs of money count more than anything else, and nothing seems ever to be condemned, and perps rarely face any kind of justice or accounting.
Indeed, the ONE thing a public wants in any society (including any largely Islamic oriented society like Iran’s) or country is an authority or authorities who are not simply self-serving and whose primary aim is truth telling and the effective and fair implementation of fundamental justice when it is required and which gives people a sense that at least their “leaders” are trying hard to do the correct thing to abide by the lofty principles upon which the society or country was founded, whether the base concept is representative “democracy” and related, long enshrined laws, or long established religious principles and its laws or whatever.
But this is no longer what the American people have, this sense that no matter what happens, justice can and will eventually prevail based on proper discovery of the truth. And this, in effect, suggests the demise of the American experiment and maybe, ultimately, the demise of American influence and power.
But with the Epstein saga, however complicated it seems and however difficult it may be to get to the bottom of it all, one must apply the famous “Occam’s Razor”. William of Occam was an English scholastic philosopher who died in 1347. He was an important figure in Western medieval thought who has been known for a methodological principle that bears his name. He developed a principle of parsimony (Occam’s Razor as it came to be called) in explaining things and in theory building.
 This principle states that if one can explain something at all, one must always opt for an explanation in terms of the fewest possible factors, causes or variables. In other words, simplicity often leads to the best explanation for some phenomenon – in this case, the phenomenon of Jeffrey Epstein.
Thus, if one were to apply Occam’s notion to Epstein and his activities (and some few notable non-mainstream observers and writers with past experience even in one case as a CIA employee have already done this) it seems probable that Epstein’s ultimate handlers and in part a source of his wealth, were quite possibly Israelis, and more specifically, in operational terms, Mossad.
Epstein’s nefarious game was, quite likely, to snare and blackmail American elites who befriended him and got involved, directly or indirectly, in his offerings of sex with underage females. And since early July when Epstein was arrested, it’s been safe to assume he would not live long. And he did not.
The question now is whether, in a country where few even in the government are not under the sway of Zionist imperatives and propaganda or just their own ignorance, this stark angle on the possible base of Epstein’s activities will be thoroughly explored and possibly brought to light.

The Dark Side of US Politics

TEHRAN (FNA)- US Labor Secretary Alex Acosta resigned, following public criticism over his previous role as a Florida State Attorney in handling the case of businessman Jeffrey Epstein, who was arrested last week over child trafficking charges.
During his tenure in the Florida Legal system, Acosta was part of a deal which saw Epstein serve only 13 months in a local jail for child sex crimes. Although he has sought to defend his role in the 12 years-old case in legal terms, the public backlash amid the arrest made his position untenable and, consequentially, he bowed out under pressure. As he departed, President Trump stated: "I'm with him."
Why is the Jeffrey Epstein scandal proving to be such a big deal? And why is it so damaging to anyone even loosely affiliated with it? The case might be described as "the tip of the iceberg" pertaining to broader and long set allegations of sexual crimes and misconduct throughout the rich, famous and connected in the US.

With Epstein's recent arrest, his well-known connections, and accusations about bribery and silencing witnesses have captured public anger deeply because people come to believe that this is just a part of a broader, deeper, and darker trend. The sentiment is clear: These predators may be weaponizing their wealth and connections to prevent and escape justice.

The fact that some within rich and high-profile circles in Washington are engaging in sinister activities is not new. For many years, such allegations have been the subject of popular conspiracy theories and murky rumors. But they have often failed to be taken seriously by the mainstream. However, at the turn of the 2010s, the public atmosphere changed dramatically, by events not in Washington, but across the sea in the United Kingdom as well.

In 2012, journalists uncovered allegations that former BBC television personality Jimmy Saville, who passed away the previous year, had in fact abused hundreds of minors over a period of 50 years. This earthquake of a revelation shined a new spotlight on abuse and corruption by elite figures.

This was followed by a string of high profile arrests and prosecutions, as well as numerous more allegations. It spread from Britain and captured the horror of the broader Western world. The aftershock sank people's trust in public individuals and British institutions. 

No more was the conceptualisation of the rich, the famous, and the powerful engaging in sinister crimes a mere conspiracy theory, but a long set dark culture which had to be taken seriously.

By 2018, this sentiment finally broke through to the mainstream in the United States. The unleashing of the "#Metoo" movement saw a tidal wave of allegations poured upon famous people about sexual abuse of both women and minors. Age-old silences were broken, and several careers were destroyed, and legal cases pursued. The reasoning was all the same that certain individuals with influence used their position and wealth not only to engage in illegal activities but also to evade justice.

This again brings us to the case of Epstein. He is an investment banker who oversees a firm which manages the assets of billionaires. He has a net worth of over 500 million dollars. Such a background means he is very well-connected. This includes, with photographic evidence, ties with Donald Trump, as well as former Presidents such as Bill Clinton. In essence, Epstein is a keystone of what every day Americans may describe as "elite society". 

As a result, the scandal surrounding him is creating burning distrust of "the establishment" from the grassroots. This is why there was no hope for Alex Acosta politically. Although nothing can be directly alleged or proven against the former Labor Secretary, Epstein's background, ties, and known usage of money in legal matters meant that even the slightest association with him is a political death sentence. Angered and severely disappointed, the public wants Acosta out, but not just him.

So although little can be alleged or proven beyond Epstein himself, one thing is for sure that ordinary Americans feel that this case is just the tip of the iceberg. Surely, beneath the surface of Political and elite life in the United States, a dark and pathological culture of abuse and corruption exists whereby certain individuals and politicians - even presidents - believe with their power, status, and assets, they can live above the law.

This is a case with real political wheels and momentum. It should not go away, as its ramifications are deeper, more insightful and more shocking than people even realise. Any doubters should ask Bill Clinton and Donald Trump.

The Jeffrey Epstein case could sink U.S. elites and induce real change

By Martin Love   

NORTH CAROLINA - If anything can get worse, like the corruption among the powerful and wealthy in the U.S. in recent decades, it just has. 
Of late there’s been reams attention paid to the arrest last week at Teterboro Airport in New Jersey of Jeffrey Epstein, 66, a super well-connected Jewish billionaire who is a known sexual pervert and convicted sex offender with an obsession for underage females and lots of notable friends formerly or currently in high places. People like Bill Clinton, Donald Trump and Alan Dershowitz, among scores of others, and even codgers like Henry Kissinger. Epstein was returning from Paris on his private jet when the FBI nabbed him and charged him with various grave offenses that could land him in jail for the rest of his sordid life.
 The list, in fact, of “friends” of Epstein includes so many politicians and celebrities and wealthy individuals it is stunning. What did this bag of sleaze have to offer? Well, allegedly, young, underage hapless, needy teen girls for one thing for trysts at Epstein properties, but it remains unclear just exactly who, aside from Epstein, also committed sex crimes although it’s a pretty good guess that Bill Clinton and perhaps even Trump may have participated back in the 1990s and into this century. Epstein, currently in prison and not yet out on bail, if he ever gets bail which seems unlikely, has offered to name names of those who PAID for his pimping services in exchange for a reduced prison term of no more than five years. But this is a joke of an offer because you can bet the very rich people who know Epstein would not have literally paid for such services as Epstein’s “friends” and associates. At any rate, Epstein’s re-arrest after over a decade when he was earlier convicted and received basically a slap on the wrist and the potential revelations ahead and further convictions could be the biggest scandal in the history of the U.S. And as well reveal the utter depth of the corruption of the “elite” and monied in the U.S.
But there is another angle to this worth exploring, and that may eventually be explored. The possibility that Epstein was working for a foreign “intelligence” agency and may have filmed or recorded various people in compromising situations for the purpose of blackmail by some non-U.S. government entity. In fact, the federal attorney who managed to get Epstein off with minor punishment a decade ago is Trump’s current Secretary of Labor, one Alex Acosta, who claimed he had been notified that Epstein was part of the “intelligence” community and thus went easy on him just over a decade ago. To make matters even more bizarre, Epstein’s former lover, friend and co-conspirator was one Ghislaine Maxwell whose father, Robert Maxwell, a former newspaper tycoon in the U.K., was once linked to Mossad.
Another fact is that Epstein, a man who never even earned a college degree but who worked on Wall Street for a while and then went on his own with some kind of alleged hedge fund, lived like a billionaire, but no one as yet has accounted for HOW exactly he became so wealthy, and no one has apparently come forth to claim they invested money with Epstein’s firm or even worked for the organization. Was Epstein connected with Mossad in some nefarious way? Did Mossad make him rich? That’s the biggest speculation flying around right now. 
It’s hard to say but this is a case that remains murky indeed and the public may never know exactly who and what Epstein was all about and who he answered to ultimately. Some other pundits have also opined that Epstein had (to have had) a “state” sponsor and was running a blackmail operation targeting the most powerful people in the U.S. The evolution of this story at the moment has the most public attention of any.
One observation when one spies the breadth and scope of this story, and the many powerful people involved and who may be caught up in this scandal and who could wind up in prison, too, suggests that Epstein could NOT have managed this alone, nor his rather vast holdings of multiple homes on both sides of the Atlantic and in the Caribbean. Where was all the lucre coming from? How could he have managed to operate such a scheme for so long? These and many other questions may or may not be answered fully as Epstein eventually goes to trial once again. Bill Clinton for one is alleged, based on flight logs, to have gone on 24 trips aboard Epstein’s jet, aptly named the “Lolita Express”, but Clinton is claiming he only took four trips abroad courtesy of Epstein. People who have reason to condemn Epstein’s operations are coming forth to spill the beans like never before, and it’s anyone’s guess how this tale is going to play out and whom it’s going to finger for criminality. But the potential here is that the full scope of the corruption in the U.S. may for once be exposed.
Obviously, the question here is what this bizarre and lambent mess of crime has to do with Iran?
It may not be very probable, but it is still remotely possible, that at least part of this tale involves the grip the Zionists have had on U.S. foreign policy because many of the people who have MADE U.S. policies in the past two decades at least have been involved with or at least knowledgeable about Epstein. And if bribery has been a factor in warping U.S. policies in the Mideast, which admittedly is not a sure thing with respect to Jeffrey Epstein, it may well impact, at last, the public’s perception of the role of the Zionists in their control of U.S. “elites” and thus policy. It’s the sort of tale that could mark a sea change in the U.S. and abroad, because the public’s eyes may at last be opened. One really can’t speculate further about this now because so much more needs to be exposed and proven, but the case of Jeffrey Epstein is worth watching from afar. Nothing like it has ever surfaced before.
