De rechterhand van Jeffrey Epstein, die zich zogenaamd het leven
benam, is onlangs opgepakt nadat ze lang uit handen van justitie wist
te blijven, wellicht met hulp van boven, immers ze moet veel kennis
hebben van machtige figuren die gebruik maakten van Epsteins
pedofeesten…..
Over die
kennis gesproken: een nicht van prins Andrew (Groot-Brittannië)
beweert dat Ghislaine Maxwell een (compromitterende) video heeft van
de prins….. Maxwell maakte er een gewoonte van om de pedo’s te
filmen tijdens het misbruik van kinderen, ofwel zij moet nog veel meer van deze tapes hebben met machtige mannen die zich vergrijpen aan kinderen…..
Zo zie
je maar weer: de hele smerige soap rond Jeffrey Epstein is nog lang
niet ten einde ook al heeft men hem de mond gesnoerd door hem te
vermoorden; blijft de vraag of Maxwell haar gevangenschap zal overleven, immers ook zij heeft wetenschap en zoals je kan lezen video’s over alle hoogwaardigheidsbekleders die zich hebben vergrepen aan kinderen op de ‘seksfeestjes’ van Epstein…….. (naast prins Andrew o.a. Tony Blair, Bill Clinton en Donald Trump……) Maxwell zou in de gevangenis waar ze wordt vastgehouden papieren kleding dragen dit vanwege ‘suïcide gevaar….’
Hier een artikel van Steve Watson over deze zaak, eerder gepubliceerd op Summit News, ik nam het over van Zero Hedge:
Prince
Andrew’s Cousin Says Ghislaine Maxwell Has ‘Secret Video’ Of
Him
“He is not a victim
here, but Ghislaine was never his friend, she was taping him.”

An
acquaintance of Ghislaine Maxwell has told reporters that the
socialite has secret video footage of Prince Andrew that was filmed
during her time as Jeffrey Epstein’s so called ‘madam’.
Christina Oxenberg told The
Sun
that Andrew, the British Queen’s son, “is one of many johns, all
of whom were videotaped by Ghislaine.”
“He is not a victim
here, but Ghislaine was never his friend, she was taping him,”
Oxenberg added, noting that “Friends don’t tape friends.”
Oxenberg is the
daughter of Princess Elizabeth of Yugoslavia, making her Prince
Andrew’s cousin.
She told reporters
that she believes Maxwell is seeking to trade information with the
FBI, and possibly the videos to save herself.
“I think she thinks
she can get out, obviously she’s planning on trading
[information],” Oxenberg said.
Oxenberg says she was
interviewed by the FBI last year in regards to the case, and that she
is willing to testify against Maxwell.
The report claims that
the royal said Maxwell previously bragged to her about obtaining
underage girls under Epstein’s influence.
“I will definitely
be there to remind her that in ’97, she told me copious amounts,”
Oxenberg said.
It is not clear if
Oxenberg is the same person who was cited anonymously in another
report this week claiming that Maxwell has secret sex tapes that
“could implicate some twisted movers and shakers.”
“If Ghislaine goes
down, she’s going to take the whole damn lot of them with her,”
the source told
the Daily Mail.
As we highlighted
last week, a lawyer for one of Epstein’s accusers thinks that
Ghislaine Maxwell could reveal a “bigger name” involved in
Epstein’s pedophile network in order to secure a plea deal
following her arrest.
“I’m sure that
Ghislaine’s attorneys will try to make a deal where she speaks
out about a bigger name to get reduced charges for herself,” said
Lisa Bloom.
Jeffrey Epstein, de ‘gesuïcideerde’
leider van een seksnetwerk met minderjarige meisjes (en incidenteel
jongens) zou volgens ex-Mossad agent Ari Ben-Menashe zijn gerekruteerd door de Mossad…… Epstein’s seksnetwerk met minderjarigen die gedwongen werden tot het hebben van seks, werd gebruikt door de Mossad om beroemdheden, maar vooral vooraanstaande politici te chanteren…..
Tot de politici en beroemdheden behoren figuren als Bill Clinton [ex-]
president van de VS en ‘beroemdheid’ prins Andrew van het Britse koningshuis, voorts worden o.a. de namen genoemd van Donald Trump en Tony Blair…… De laatste is een tot het katholicisme bekeerde schoft en oorlogsmisdadiger, die als Labour leider en premier van GB, de Labour Partij hervormde tot een
pooier van het neoliberalisme…….
Epstein werd na introductie door Robert
Maxwell als agent van de Mossad aangesteld, overigens een weinig
succesvolle, vandaar dat men besloot met de hulp van Epstein politici
en ander bekende figuren te chanteren met foto’s en video’s, gemaakt
tijdens seksfeesten waar zoals gezegd de ‘vip’s’ seks hadden met
minderjarigen…….
De schrijver van het onderstaande
artikel Paul Joseph Watson noemt het niet, maar het kan bijna niet anders dan de CIA en
wellicht nog een andere geheime dienst van de meer dan 25 geheime
diensten die de VS ‘rijk’ is, moet medeplichtig zijn aan deze zaak…… De Israëlische ex-spion die alles in de openbaarheid gooide is Ari Ben-Menashe.
Niet vreemd dus dat Epstein is vermoord en ook dat kan wel eens zijn gedaan middels een samenwerkingsverband van geheime diensten, inclusief de Mossad…… Voorts moet niet vergeten
worden dat een aantal van de genoemde figuren nog steeds een zekere
macht hebben en geld voldoende hebben om iemand te laten vermoorden
in de gevangenis…… Neem Donald Trump, als zou uitkomen dat hij
zonder enige twijfel een minderjarige heeft verkracht, kon het wel
eens over en uit zijn voor hem……. Trouwens de Britse pedo-prins Andrew die zichzelf helemaal in de nesten heeft gewerkt met zijn zogenaamde verdediging, kon ook wel eens
zijn geholpen door MI6….*
Wellicht denk je dat het allemaal onzin
is, echter vergeleken met waartoe geheime diensten als de Mossad en
de CIA in staat zijn, zijn voornoemde zaken het best te vergelijken met een theekransje……. Zo is het wel zeker dat de Mossad de dienst is die achter de beschuldiging zit dat Jeremy Corbyn antisemiet is, alleen daar deze een paar jaar geleden aankondigde een heel andere koers te gaan varen als het om de (fascistische apartheidsstaat, Ap) Israël gaat, ook zou Corbyn als premier het verdrukte Palestijnse volk steunen, zo beloofde hij…. Alsof opkomen tegen de verdrukking van een volk antisemitisch is… Gezien wat nazi-Duitsland o.a. tegen de Joden flikte tijdens WOII, is dit te zot voor woorden!!
Het volgende artikel werd eerder gepubliceerd op Summit News en werd door mij overgenomen van Zero Hedge:
Epstein
Was A Mossad Agent Used To Blackmail American Politicians, Former
Israeli Spy Claims
Jeffrey
Epstein was a Mossad asset who was used by Israeli intelligence to
blackmail American politicians, according to a former Israeli spy.
Ari
Ben-Menashe,a
former Israeli spy and alleged “handler” of Robert Maxwell, told
the authors of a new book, Epstein:
Dead Men Tell No Tales,
that Epstein ran a “complex intelligence operation” at the behest
of Mossad.
Believing
that Epstein planned to marry his daughter, Maxwell introduced him
and Ghislaine Maxwell to Ben-Menashe’s Mossad circle.
“Maxwell
sort of started liking him, and my theory is that Maxwell felt that
this guy is going for his daughter,” Ben-Menashe
said.
“He
felt that he could bless him with some work and help him out in like
a paternal [way].”
Israeli
intelligence bosses gave the green light and Epstein then became a
Mossad asset.
“They
were agents of the Israeli Intelligence Services,” said
Ben-Menashe.
When
it became clear that Epstein wasn’t very competent at doing much
else, his primary role became “blackmailing American and other
political figures.”
“Mr.
Epstein was the simple idiot who was going around providing girls to
all kinds of politicians in the United States,” said
Ben-Menashe.
“See,
fucking around is not a crime. It could be embarrassing, but it’s
not a crime. But fucking a fourteen-year-old girl is a crime. And he
was taking photos of politicians fucking fourteen-year-old girls —
if you want to get it straight. They would just blackmail people,
they would just blackmail people like that.”
There’s
also a Mossad connection to a different kind of sex offender; Harvey
Weinstein.
Weinstein reportedly hired
ex-Mossad agents to suppress allegations against him. Working for an
Israeli firm called Black Cube, these agents pressured witnesses and
tried to intimidate journalist Ronan Farrow in order to “bury the
truth” about Weinstein’s activity.
=======================================
* Zo vraag ik me nog steeds af of ‘Lady Di’ (Diana) niet in een georchestreerd ongeluk is omgekomen……..
Als je
in de VS een strafrechtproces te wachten staat kan je een ‘plea
bargain’ worden aangeboden, als je dat accepteert valt je straf veel
lager uit, dan wanneer je blijft ontkennen en dat geldt lullig
genoeg ook als je onschuldig bent (en toch wordt veroordeeld)…. Vandaar ook dat het mij een
raadsel is dat Nederland nog steeds mensen (zelfs eigen onderdanen)
uitlevert aan politie- en terreurstaat VS…… Alleen de barbaarse
doodstraf die nog steeds wordt uitgesproken en uitgevoerd in de VS
(zelfs weer met het ultieme martelwerktuig: de elektrische stoel) zou
voldoende moeten zijn voor een minister, met ook maar enig ethisch
besef, om elk verzoek tot uitlevering aan de VS af te wijzen….. Zo
niet in Nederland en ik dacht dat dit ook geldt voor alle andere westerse landen……
De
bewakers die Epstein in de gaten hadden moeten houden, waar nu
overigens van gezegd wordt dat ze maar om de 30 minuten hoefden te
kijken, hebben een plea deal afgewezen, ten eerste geeft
dat aan dat men deze bewakers wil vervolgen en ten tweede dat men
eigenlijk uitgaat van een schuldig….. Vreemd dat men Epstein van de
suïcide controle heeft gehaald waar men deze instelde nadat hij zich
eerder zogenaamd verwondingen had toegebracht in zijn cel,
verwondingen die hij zichzelf onmogelijk had kunnen toebrengen, aldus
specialisten……
De
camera’s die op de celdeur van Epstein gericht hadden moeten staan,
stonden dat niet ten tijde dat Epstein ‘werd gesuïcideerd……’ (je
moet wel heel naïef zijn om nog te geloven in de zelfdoding van
Epstein, die met zijn getuigenis een groot aantal bekende figuren,
veelal politici, naast Blair, Clinton en Trump ook prins Andrew [GB],
had kunnen meenemen naar de gevangenis…..*) Het is
dan ook duidelijk dat Epstein werd vermoord in zijn cel, echter die
mogelijkheid wordt niet eens onderzocht, althans dat wordt door velen
als feit aangenomen……
De
bekende politici en vips die gebruik maakten van Epsteins seksnetwerk zijn
overigens ‘nog niet van de justitiële haak, daar de vrouw van
Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell ook berecht zal worden als handlanger van
Epsteins pedo seksnetwerk. In de aanklacht zouden honderden namen
staan van onder meer politici…… (ik zal het bericht daarover
opnemen onder het hieronder opgenomen artikel van Money and Markets na het eerste artikel naar beneden ‘scrollen’ dan zie je het tweede artikel van Money and Markets, zoals je dat ook in dit bericht kan lezen)
Zoals
gezegd: het is duidelijk dat Epstein is vermoord, echter of we dat
ooit uit de mond van een rechter zullen horen is maar zeer de vraag,
de rechtspraak in de VS is door en door verrot (zoals je zo even al
hebt kunnen lezen >> -plea Bargain, doodstraf, -de ongelijke
bestraffing van witte en gekleurde mensen, -bescherming van welgestelden en politici, ofwel klassenjustitie, enz. enz.)
Guards
Watching Epstein During Mysterious Suicide Reject Plea Deal
Federal
prosecutors offered a plea deal to two correctional officers
responsible for guarding disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein on the
night of his death, but the officers have declined the offer, people
familiar with the matter told The Associated Press.
The
existence of the plea offer signals the Justice Department is
considering criminal charges in connection with the
wealthy financier’s death at
the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York in August. The
city’s medical examiner ruled Epstein’s death a suicide.
The
guards on Epstein’s unit are suspected of failing to check on him
every half hour, as required, and of fabricating log entries to show
they had. As part of the proposed plea deal, prosecutors wanted the
guards to admit they falsified the prison records, according to the
people familiar with the matter. They spoke on the condition of
anonymity because they were not permitted to publicly discuss the
investigation.
The
U.S. attorney’s office in Manhattan had no comment on the plea
offer.
Both
guards were working overtime because of staffing shortages. They have
been placed on administrative leave while the FBI and
the Justice Department’s inspector general investigate the
circumstances surrounding Epstein’s death. The 66-year-old had been
awaiting trial on charges of sexually abusing teenage girls.
Epstein
was placed on suicide watch after he was found on his cell floor July
23 with bruises on his neck. Multiple people familiar with operations
at the jail have said Epstein was then taken off suicide watch about
a week before his death, meaning he was less closely monitored but
still supposed to be checked on every 30 minutes.
Epstein’s
death exposed mounting evidence that the chronically understaffed
Metropolitan Correctional Center may have bungled its responsibility
to keep him alive. Guards often work overtime day after day, and
other employees are pressed into service as correctional officers.
Falsification
of records has been a problem throughout the federal prison system.
Kathleen Hawk Sawyer, who was named director of the Bureau of Prisons
after Epstein’s death, disclosed in a Nov. 4 internal memo that a
review of operations across the agency found some staff members
failed to perform required rounds and inmate counts but logged that
they had done so anyway.
“Falsification
of information in government systems and documents is also a
violation of policy, and may be subject to criminal prosecution as
well,” Hawk Sawyer wrote in the memo to top prison officials, a
copy of which was obtained by the AP.
The
memo also noted that staff members who are indicted by a grand jury
will be placed on an indefinite, unpaid suspension until the
resolution of the criminal case.
Epstein’s
ability to take his own life while incarcerated at one of the most
secure jails in America ended the possibility
of a trial that
would have involved prominent figures. And it sparked widespread
anger that he wouldn’t have to answer for the allegations. He had
pleaded not guilty and was preparing to argue that he could not be
charged because of a 2008 deal he made to avoid federal prosecution
on similar allegations.
The
Justice Department has vowed to aggressively investigate and bring
charges against anyone who may have helped Epstein. Federal
prosecutors investigating the financier’s death subpoenaed up to 20
staff members at the jail in August.
Attorney
General William Barr — who has said investigators found “serious
irregularities” at the jail — said the FBI’s investigation had
been slowed because some witnesses had been uncooperative.
In
addition to the shakeup at the top of the Bureau of Prisons, the
warden at the Metropolitan Correctional Center had also been
reassigned to a desk post at a regional office.
Secret
court filings related to disgraced financier and convicted pedophile
Jeffrey Epstein and his alleged madame Ghislaine Maxwell could
implicate “hundreds of other people,” her lawyer told the court
at a hearing Wednesday.
Finding
out who the people are will take time as Maxwell’s lawyer, an
attorney representing some women Epstein allegedly abused and a U.S.
District Court judge have not yet agreed on how the documents should
be unsealed.
The
judge, Loretta Preska, was reportedly irritated that the sides
haven’t come to an agreement yet. The documents are part of a
defamation lawsuit one of Epstein’s accusers, Virginia Giuffre,
filed several years ago against Maxwell, a British socialite who
allegedly procured young girls for Epstein.
The
list of “hundreds of other people” that could be implicated
include “numerous prominent American politicians, powerful business
executives, foreign presidents, a well-known Prime Minister and other
world leaders.”
“Did
you people not talk about this?” Preska barked at the lawyers in a
Manhattan
federal court. A plan was then put in place to figure out a process
to categorize the thousands of pages of sealed documents over the
next two weeks.
The
lawyers would then have another week to figure out which group of
documents should be unsealed first, followed by a week-to-week
process thereafter to evaluate which documents should or should not
be released to the public, according to CNBC.
“There
are hundreds of other people who could be implicated” in the
documents, Maxwell lawyer Jeffrey Pagliuca said. Pagliuca wanted at
least a month to decide which documents go into which of 10
categories, but the judge shot that down.
“You
know we got to get this done,” Preska said.
The
hearing was nearly a month after Epstein
allegedly killed himself in jail while
awaiting trial on child sex trafficking charges. Epstein of course
was once friends with both President Donald Trump and former
President Bill Clinton, as well as Britain’s Prince Andrew.
Prosecutors
continue to investigate the Epstein case and it’s possible that
others could be charged.
Giuffre
alleges she was sexually abused by Epstein’s circle of high-profile
politicians and business executives, as well as Harvard Law professor
and staunch Trump defender Alan Dershowitz, who denies the claims.
About
2,000 pages of documents have already been released, including
allegations against former New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson and former
Democratic Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell, who both denied
the allegations. The documents also showed Trump flew
on Epstein’s private plane in 1997, and that Clinton flew on it
many times.
=========================================
* Lekker naïef van jouw Azijnpisser, natuurlijk zullen deze figuren
niet achter de tralies verdwijnen…….
Een
voormalige ‘hoge’ medewerker van de Israëlische militaire geheime dienst, Ari Ben-Menashe liet
onlangs in een interview weten dat Jeffrey Epstein en Ghislaine
Maxwell werkten voor de Israëlische geheime dienst……. Volgens deze
figuur werd het seksnetwerk van Epstein gebruikt om vooraanstaande
personen, zoals machtige politici (o.a. Bill Clinton en Tony Blair), te chanteren. Deze geheime dienst
heeft de chantage dienst opgezet en….. gebruikt!
Het
was overigens al duidelijk dat het netwerk van Epstein werd gebruikt
om vooraanstaande politici te chanteren daar zij kinderen seksueel
misbruikten, kinderen die hare kwaadaardigheid Ghislaine Maxwell ‘trash’ noemde, ofwel vuilnis waar
je mee kan doen wat je wilt…….. Vreemd genoeg hebben de reguliere
westerse massamedia vooral aandacht aan Epstein besteed, waar ze zijn
zelfmoord als zeker bestempelden, terwijl het meer dan duidelijk is
dat Epstein werd vermoord en dat moet een overheidsinstantie hebben
gedaan, of deze instantie heeft een ander de opdracht gegeven,
Epstein mocht de rechtszaal nooit bereiken, teveel belangrijke en
machtige figuren zouden van hun voedstuk donderen, neem Trump,
Clinton en ga nog maar een tijdje door…….
Ari
Ben-Menashe heeft overigens wel meer te vertellen, bijvoorbeeld dat
hij in de 80er jaren van de vorige eeuw samen met Robert Maxwell
betrokken was bij de Iran-Contra-Affaire…….. Dezelfde Maxwell
introduceerde Ben-Menashe bij Jeffrey Epstein in het midden van die
jaren 80.
Maxwell
had trouwens een heel netwerk in Israël en daar maakte ook Ariel
Sharon deel van uit, Sharon de beestachtige oorlogsmisdadiger die
verantwoordelijk was voor de massamoord in Sabra en
Shatila, het Palestijnse vluchtelingenkamp en de aangrenzende wijk in Beiroet, Libanon……
Voorafgaand aan een interview met Robert Parry in 2012 over Iran Contra en andere smerige geheime acties in de 80er jaren van de vorige eeuw, ging het huis van Ben-Menashe in Montreal in vlammen op, e.e.a. als gevolg van een aanval met een brandbom waarin een vloeistof die alleen door militairen wordt gebruikt, het is dan ook wel duidelijk dat Israël Ben-Menashe de mond wilde snoeren…….
Eén ding is zeker, de continue westerse steun voor de (nu officieel) fascistische apartheidsstaat Israël, is bepaald niet alleen ingegeven door een schuldgevoel over de holocaust……..
Lees
het volgende artikel geschreven door Whitney Webb en dat eerder
verscheen op MintPressNews en ook jij zal begrijpen dat Epstein zijn
mond moest houden, ofwel hij werd vermoord:
A
recent interview given by a former high-ranking official in Israeli
military intelligence has claimed that Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual
blackmail enterprise was an Israel intelligence operation run for the
purpose of entrapping powerful individuals and politicians in the
United States and abroad.
Since
the apparent death by suicide of Jeffrey Epstein in a Manhattan
prison, much has come to light about his depraved activities and
methods used to sexually abuse underage girls and entrap the rich and
powerful for the purposes of blackmail. Epstein’s ties to
intelligence, described in-depth in a recentMintPress investigative
series,
have continued to receive minimal mainstream media coverage, which
has essentially moved on from the Epstein scandal despite the fact
that his many co-conspirators remain on the loose.
For
those who have examined Epstein’s ties to intelligence, there are
clear links to both U.S. intelligence and Israeli intelligence,
leaving it somewhat open to debate as to which country’s
intelligence apparatus was closest to Epstein and most involved in
his blackmail/sex-trafficking activities. A recent interview given by
a former high-ranking official in Israeli military intelligence has
claimed that Epstein’s sexual blackmail enterprise was an Israel
intelligence operation run for the purpose of entrapping powerful
individuals and politicians in the United States and abroad.
In an
interview with
Zev Shalev, former CBS
News executive
producer and award-winning investigative journalist for Narativ,
the former senior executive for Israel’s Directorate of Military
Intelligence, Ari Ben-Menashe, claimed not only to have met Jeffrey
Epstein and his alleged madam, Ghislaine Maxwell, back in the 1980s,
but that both Epstein and Maxwell were already working
with Israeli intelligence during that time period.
“They
found a niche”
In an
interview last
week with the independent outlet Narativ,
Ben-Menashe, who himself was involved in Iran-Contra arms deals, told
his interviewer Zev Shalev that he had been introduced to Jeffrey
Epstein by Robert Maxwell in the mid-1980s while Maxwell’s and
Ben-Menashe’s involvement with Iran-Contra was ongoing. Ben-Menashe
did not specify the year he met Epstein.
Ben-Menashe
told Shalev that “he [Maxwell] wanted us to accept him [Epstein] as
part of our group …. I’m not denying that we were at the time a
group that it was Nick Davies [Foreign Editor of the
Maxwell-Owned Daily
Mirror],
it was Maxwell, it was myself and our team from Israel, we were doing
what we were doing.” Past reporting by Seymour Hersh and
others revealed
that Maxwell,
Davies and Ben-Menashe were involved in the transfer and sale of
military equipment and weapons from Israel to Iran on behalf of
Israeli intelligence during this time period.
He
then added that Maxwell had stated during the introduction that “your
Israeli bosses have already approved” of Epstein. Shalev later
noted that Maxwell “had an extensive network in Israel at the time,
which included the then-Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, according to
Ben-Menashe.”
Ben-Menashe
went on to say that he had “met him [Epstein] a few times in
Maxwell’s office, that was it.” He also said he was not aware of
Epstein being involved in arms deals for anyone else he knew at the
time, but that Maxwell wanted to involve Epstein in the arms transfer
in which he, Davies and Ben-Menashe were engaged on Israel’s
behalf.

However,
as MintPress reported
in Part
IV of
the investigative series “Inside
the Jeffrey Epstein Scandal: Too Big to Fail,”
Epstein was involved with several arms dealers during this period of
time, some of whom were directly involved in Iran-Contra arms deals
between Israel and Iran. For instance, after leaving Bear Stearns in
1981, Epstein began
working in
the realms of shadow finance as a self-described “financial bounty
hunter,” where he would both hunt down and hide money for powerful
people. One of these powerful individuals was Adnan Khashoggi, a
Saudi arms dealer with close ties to both Israeli and U.S.
intelligence and one of the main brokers of Iran-Contra arms deals
between Israel and Iran. Epstein would later forge a business
relationship with a CIA front company involved in another aspect of
Iran-Contra, the airline Southern Air Transport, on behalf of Leslie
Wexner’s company, The Limited.
During
this period, it is also known that Epstein became well acquainted
with the British arms dealer Sir Douglas Leese, who collaborated with
Khashoggi on at least one British-Saudi arms deal in the 1980s.
Leese would
later introduce Epstein
to Steven Hoffenberg, calling Epstein a “genius” and describing
his lack of morals during that introduction. Thus, there are
indications that Epstein was involved with Middle Eastern arms deals,
including some related to Iran-Contra, during this period. In
addition, Epstein would later claim (and then subsequently deny)
having worked for the CIA during this period.
After
having been introduced to Epstein, Ben-Menashe claimed that neither
he nor Davies were impressed with Epstein and considered him “not
very competent.” He added that Ghislaine Maxwell had “fallen for”
Epstein and that he believed that the romantic relationship between
his daughter and Epstein led Robert Maxwell to work to bring the
latter into the “family business” — i.e., Maxwell’s dealings
with Israeli intelligence. This information is very revealing, given
that the narrative, until now at least, has been that Ghislaine
Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein did not meet and begin their relationship
until after Robert Maxwell’s death in 1991, after which Ghislaine
moved to New York.
Ben-Menashe
says that well after the introduction, though again he does not
specify what year, Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein began a
sexual blackmail operation with the purpose of extorting U.S.
political and public figures on behalf of Israeli military
intelligence. He stated:
In
this case what really happened, my take on it, in the later thing, is
that these guys were seen as agents. They weren’t really competent
to do very much. And so they found a niche for themselves —
blackmailing American and other political figures.”
He
then confirmed, when prompted, that they were blackmailing Americans
on behalf of Israeli intelligence.
In
response to his statement, Zev Shalev replied, “But, you know,
for most people it’s hard for them to think of Israel as being …
blackmailing their leaders in the United States, it’s a very …”
at which point, Ben-Menashe interrupted and the following exchange
took place:
Ari
Ben-Menashe: You’re kidding? [laughs]…. It was
quite their M.O. Sleeping around is not a crime, it may be
embarrassing, but it’s not a crime, but sleeping with underage
girls is a crime.
Shalev: It
was a crime in 2000 as well, but they let him off that…
Ben-Menashe: And
that it is [why] always so he [Epstein] made sure these girls were
underage.
In
addition, when Shalev asked Ben-Menashe about the
relationship between
Jeffrey Epstein and former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak,
Ben-Menashe stated “After a while, you know, what Mr. Epstein was
doing was collecting intelligence on people in the United States. And
so if you want to go to the U.S. if you’re a high-profile
politician you want to know information about people.” Ben-Menashe
subsequently stated that Barak was obtaining compromising information
(i.e., blackmail) that Epstein had acquired on powerful people in the
United States.
PROMIS,
sex, and blackmail
If
Robert Maxwell did recruit Epstein and bring him into the “family
business” and the world of Israeli intelligence, as Ben-Menashe has
claimed, it provides supporting evidence for information provided
to MintPress by a former U.S. intelligence official,
who chose to remain anonymous in light of the sensitivity of the
claim.
This
source, who has direct knowledge of the unauthorized use of PROMIS to
support covert U.S. and Israeli intelligence projects,
told MintPress that
“some of the proceeds from the illicit sales of PROMIS were made
available to Jeffrey Epstein for use in compromising targets of
political blackmail.” As was noted in a Mintpress series
on the Epstein scandal,
much of Epstein’s funding also came from Ohio billionaire Leslie
Wexner, who has documented ties to both organized crime and U.S. and
Israeli intelligence.
After
the PROMIS software was stolen from its rightful owner and developer,
Inslaw Inc., through the collusion of both U.S. and Israeli
officials, it was marketed mainly by two men: Earl Brian, a close
aide to Ronald Reagan, later U.S. envoy to Iran and close friend of
Israeli spymaster Rafi Eitan; and Robert Maxwell. Brian sold the
bugged software through his company, Hadron Inc., while Maxwell sold
it through an Israeli company he acquired called Degem. Before and
following Maxwell’s acquisition of Degem, the company was a
known front for
Mossad operations and Mossad operatives in Latin America often posed
as Degem employees.
With
Maxwell — Epstein’s alleged recruiter and father of Epstein’s
alleged madam — having been one of the main salespeople involved in
selling PROMIS software on behalf of intelligence, he would have been
in a key position to furnish Epstein’s nascent sexual blackmail
operation with the proceeds from the sale of PROMIS.
This
link between Epstein’s sexual blackmail operation and the PROMIS
software scandal is notable given that the illicit use of PROMIS by
U.S. and Israeli intelligence has been for blackmail purposes on U.S.
public figures and politicians, as was described in a
recent MintPress report.
Can
an ex-spy be trusted?
When
dealing in the world of deception and intrigue that defines
intelligence operations, it is often difficult to determine whether
any individual linked to an intelligence agency is telling the truth.
Indeed, in the United States, there are examplesof
elected intelligence officials committing perjury and lying to
Congress on
several occasions with
no consequences, and of intelligence officials feeding politically
motivated and untrue information to agency assets in the media.
So,
are Ari Ben-Menashe’s claims regarding Epstein and the Maxwells
trustworthy? In addition to the aforementioned, corroborating
information for his claims, a review of Ben-Menashe’s
post-intelligence career suggests this is the case.

Prior
to his arrest in November 1989, Ben-Menashe was a high-ranking
officer in a special unit of Israeli military intelligence. He
would later
claim that
his arrest for attempting to sell American-made weapons to Iran was
politically motivated, as he had threatened to expose what the U.S.
government had done with the stolen PROMIS software if the U.S. did
not cease providing Saddam Hussein’s Iraq with chemical weapons.
Ben-Menashe was later
acquitted when
a U.S. court determined that his involvement in the attempted sale of
military equipment to Iran was done on behalf of the Israeli state.
After
his arrest, Ben-Menashe was visited in prison by Robert Parry, the
former Newsweek contributor
and Associated
Press reporter
who would later found and run Consortium
News until
his recent passing last year. Parry remembered
that,
during that interview, “Ben-Menashe offered me startling new
information about the Iran-Contra scandal, which I thought that I
knew quite well.”
Israel’s
government immediately began to attack Ben-Menashe’s credibility
following his interview with Parry, and claimed that Ben-Menashe had
never worked for Israeli intelligence. When Parry soon found
evidence that
Ben-Menashe had indeed served in Israeli military intelligence,
Israel’s government was then forced to admit that he had worked for
military intelligence, but only as a “low-level translator.”
Yet, the
documentation Parry
had uncovered described Ben-Menashe as having served in “key
positions” and performed “complex and sensitive assignments.”
A
year later, Ben-Menashe would be interviewed by another journalist,
Seymour Hersh. It would be Ben-Menashe who first revealed to Hersh
secrets about Israel’s nuclear program and the fact that British
media mogul Robert Maxwell was an Israeli spy, revelations that Hersh
would not only independently corroborate but include in his book The
Samson Option: Israel’s Nuclear Arsenal and American Foreign
Policy.
Hersh was then sued by Robert Maxwell and the Maxwell-owned Mirror
Group for libel. The case was later
settled in
Hersh’s favor, as the claims Hersh had made were true and not
libelous. As a result, the Mirror Group paid Hersh for damages,
covered his legal costs, and issued him a formal apology.
After
Ben-Menashe’s interviews by Hersh and Parry, Israel’s government
was apparently concerned enough about what Ben-Menashe would tell
congressional investigators that it attempted
to kidnap him and
bring him back to Israel to face state charges, much like Israeli
intelligence had done to Israel’s nuclear-weapons whistleblower
Mordechai Vanunu. The plan was foiled largely thanks to Parry.
Parry,
who broke many key stories related to the Iran-Contra scandal in the
1980s and beyond, was tipped off by a U.S. intelligence source about
a joint U.S.-Israel plan to have Ben-Menashe first be denied entry to
the United States on his planned trip to give congressional
testimony. Per the plan, Ben-Menashe would be denied entry to the
U.S. in Los Angeles and then be deported to Israel, where he would
have stood trial for “exposing state secrets.” Parry called
Ben-Menashe and convinced him to delay his flight until he secured a
guarantee for safe passage from the U.S. government.
Ben-Menashe
subsequently gave a
sworn statement to
the House Judiciary Committee that mostly focused on U.S.-Israel
collusion regarding the theft and creation of a “backdoor” into
the PROMIS software. Ben-Menashe offered to name names and provide
corroborating evidence for several of his claims if he was offered
immunity by the committee, which, for whatever reason. declined that
request.
Prior
to the conclusion of the Hersh “libel” trial, which would later
uphold Ben-Menashe’s claims regarding Robert Maxwell’s Mossad
activities as true, there was a concerted effort in the U.S. press to
downplay Ben-Menashe’s credibility. For instance, Newsweek —
in an article on Ben-Menashe entitled “One
Man, Many Tales”
— claimed that “inconsistencies may undermine Ben-Menashe’s
testimony in the British courtroom proceedings,” citing
inconsistencies from sources in Israel’s government and Israeli
intelligence as well as Ben-Menashe’s
ex-wife and
Israeli journalist Shmuel (or Samuel) Segev, a former
IDF colonel.
It goes without saying that such sources had much to gain from any
effort to discredit Ben-Menashe’s claims.
According
to Parry, this media campaign, which employed American journalists
with close
ties to
Israel’s government and intelligence agencies, was very successful
“in marginalizing Ben-Menashe by 1993, at least in the eyes of the
Washington Establishment.” After a years-long media campaign to
discredit Ben-Menashe, “the Israelis seemed to view him as a
declining threat, best left alone. He was able to pick up the pieces
of his life, creating a second act as an international political
consultant and businessman arranging sales of grain.” The effort to
marginalize Ben-Menashe has continued well into recent years, with
mainstream news outlets still referring to him as a “self-described
ex-Israeli spy”
— despite the well-documented fact that Ben-Menashe worked for
Israeli intelligence — as a means of downplaying his claims
regarding his time in Israel’s intelligence service.
After
the conclusion of the Hersh libel trial, Ben-Menashe became an
international political consultant who “surrounded his far-flung
business activities in secrecy and got involved with some
controversial international figures, such as Zimbabwe’s leader
Robert Mugabe,” and “conducted
his international consulting business … in a wide variety of global
hotspots, including conflict zones,” according to Parry. In
addition to Mugabe, Ben-Menashe has
also recently come underfirefor
his consulting work on behalf of Sudan’s military junta and
Venezuelan opposition politician Henri Falcón.
Ben-Menashe
has also maintained ties to several different intelligence services
and eventually
became a
controversial whistleblower whose information led
to the arrest of
the former head of Canada’s Security Intelligence Review Committee,
Arthur Porter.
As
far as his character is concerned, Parry
noted that
Ben-Menashe could often be “his own worst enemy” and that, even
though Parry considered his information regarding Iran-Contra and
PROMIS reliable and noted that much of it was later corroborated, he
“often compound[ed] his media problem by treating journalists in a
high-handed manner, either due to his suspicions of them or his
arrogance.”
Bill
Hamilton, the original developer of the PROMIS software and head of
Inslaw Inc., also found Ben-Menashe’s claims regarding the illicit
use of PROMIS by U.S. and Israeli intelligence agencies to be
credible, though he expressed doubts about Ben-Menashe’s
character.
Hamilton
told MintPress the following about Ben-Menashe:
Ari
Ben Menashe was the first source to tell us reliable information
about the role of Rafi Eitan and Israeli intelligence vis-a-vis
PROMIS but, in the end, of course, he was a clandestine services-type
guy whose official duties include the ability and willingness to lie,
cheat, and steal.”
A
threat revived
While
Ben-Menashe may have been viewed as a “declining threat” after
the early 1990s, his plans to meet with Robert Parry of Consortium
News years
later in 2012 to discuss Iran-Contra and other covert dealings of the
1980s appeared to change that. Right before he planned to travel from
Canada to the United States to meet with Parry and “finally prove”
the truthfulness of his past claims, a
fire-bomb was thrown into
his Montreal home, destroying it.

Though
Canadian media referred
to the
incendiary device as a “molotov cocktail,” Consortium
News reported that
“the arson squad’s initial assessment is said to be that the
flammable agent was beyond the sort of accelerant used by common
criminals,” leading to speculation that the accelerant was
military-grade.
Had
it not been for the bomb, the origins of which Canadian police failed
to determine, Ben-Menashe would have traveled to the U.S. alongside a
“senior Israeli intelligence figure” to be interviewed by Parry.
The other intelligence-linked individual, according
to Parry,
“concluded that the attack was meant as a message from Israeli
authorities to stay silent about the historical events that he was
expected to discuss.”
Though
neither Ben-Menashe nor Parry directly blamed Israel’s government
for the destruction of Ben-Menashe’s home, Parry
noted that
the bombing did succeed in “intimidating Ben-Menashe, shutting down
possible new disclosures of Israeli misconduct from the other
intelligence veteran, and destroying records that would have helped
Ben-Menashe prove whatever statements he might make.”
While
Ben-Menashe’s post-intelligence associations with controversial
governments and individuals have given plenty of fodder to the still
thriving media campaign to discredit his claims about covert
U.S.-Israel operations in the 1980s, there remain troubling
indications that the Israeli government sees his information on
decades-old events as a threat.
Now,
with the major efforts by powerful Americans and Israelis to distance
themselves from Jeffrey Epstein and other figures associated with his
depraved sex trafficking operation, Ben-Menashe may soon again find
his reputation — and perhaps more — under fire.

lopen regelmatig Israëlische spionnen tegen de lamp, zelfs tijdens de aanvallen van 9/11 op het WTC….*, echter in
tegenstelling tot andere spionnen worden zij met zijden handschoenen
aangepakt, als ze al worden aangepakt en niet direct op het vliegtuig
worden gezet, althans als men de zaak ernstig genoeg acht………
Berichten
over dit soort zaken bereiken de reguliere massamedia niet eens, laat
staan dat de (onderzoeks-) journalisten van die media deze zaken uitpluizen, dit in tegenstelling tot
de alternatieve media die wel over dergelijke zaken berichten (en met meestal
‘enige mate van ontevredenheid’, om het maar zacht te zeggen….)
Lees het
volgende artikel van Philip Giraldi, eerder geplaatst op de American
Herald Tribune en verbaas je over alle figuren die gebruik hebben
gemaakt van de smerige diensten die Epstein aanbood en waarbij
gasten stiekem werden gefilmd terwijl ze minderjarigen misbruikten,
materiaal waar geheime diensten als de Mossad van kwijlen (chantage
>> doen wat in het belang is van de fascistische apartheidsstaat Israël)……. Zo valt op dat Bill Clinton
wel erg vaak gebruik heeft gemaakt van de Lolita Expres, zoals het
privé vliegtuig van Epstein wordt genoemd……. Een woordvoerder
van Clinton liet vorige week weten dat Clinton van niets wist, maar
dat soort ontkenningen hebben we eerder al gehoord uit de mond van deze oorlogsmisdadiger en viespeuk……. Ook de claim van een woordvoerder van Trump dat deze niets van kindermisbruik wist, wordt in het volgende artikel onderuitgehaald……
The
extent of Israeli spying directed against the United States is a huge
story that is only
rarely addressed in
the mainstream media. The Jewish state regularly tops the list for
ostensibly friendly countries that aggressively conduct espionage
against the U.S. and Jewish American Jonathan Pollard, who was
imprisoned in 1987 for spying for Israel, is now regarded as the most
damaging spy in the history of the United States.
Last
week I
wrote about
how Israeli spies operating more-or-less freely in the U.S. are
rarely interfered with, much less arrested and prosecuted, because
there is an unwillingness on the part of upper echelons of government
to do so. I cited the case of Arnon Milchan, a billionaire Hollywood
movie producer who had a secret life that included stealing
restricted technology in the United States to enable development of
Israel’s nuclear weapons program, something that was very much
against U.S. interests. Milchan was involved in a number of other
thefts as well as arms sales on behalf of the Jewish state, so much
so that his work as a movie producer was actually reported to be less
lucrative than his work as a spy and black-market arms merchant, for
which he operated on a commission basis.
That
Milchan has never been arrested by the United States government or
even questioned about his illegal activity, which was well known to
the authorities, is just one more manifestation of the effectiveness
of Jewish power in Washington, but a far more compelling case
involving possible espionage with major political manifestations has
just re-surfaced. I am referring to Jeffrey Epstein, the billionaire
Wall Street “financier” who has been arrested and charged with
operating a “vast” network of underage girls for sex, operating
out of his mansions in New York City and Florida as well as his
private island in the Caribbean, referred to by visitors as “Orgy
Island.” Among other high-value associates, it is claimed that
Epstein was particularly close to Bill Clinton, who flew dozens of
times on Epstein’s private 727.
*(Alex
Acosta (L) Jeffrey Epstein (R))
Epstein was
arrested on July 8th after
indictment by a federal grand jury in New York. It was more than a
decade after Alexander Acosta, the top federal prosecutor in Miami,
who is now President Trump’s secretary of labor, accepted a plea
bargain involving similar allegations regarding pedophilia that
was not shared with the accusers prior to being finalized in court.
There were reportedly hundreds of victims, some 35 of whom were
identified, but Acosta deliberately denied the two actual plaintiffs
their day in court to testify before sentencing.
Acosta’s
intervention meant that Epstein avoided both a public trial and a
possible federal prison sentence, instead serving only 13 months of
an 18-month sentence in the almost-no-security Palm Beach County Jail
on charges of soliciting prostitution in Florida. While in custody,
he was permitted to leave jail for sixteen hours six days a week to
work in his office.
Epstein’s
crimes were carried out in his $56 million Manhattan
mansion and
in his oceanside villa in Palm Beach Florida. Both residences were
equipped with hidden cameras and microphones in the bedrooms, which
Epstein reportedly used to record sexual encounters between his
high-profile guests and his underage girls, many of whom came from
poor backgrounds, who were recruited by procurers to engage in what
was euphemistically described as “massages” for money. Epstein
apparently hardly made any effort to conceal what he was up to: his
airplane was called the “Lolita Express.”
The
Democrats are calling for an investigation of the Epstein affair, as
well as the resignation of Acosta, but they might well wind up
regretting their demands. Trump, the real target of the Acosta fury,
apparently did not know about the details of the plea bargain that
ended the Epstein court case. Bill and Hillary Clinton were, however,
very close associates of Epstein. Bill, who flew on the “Lolita
Express” at
least 26 times,
could plausibly be implicated in the pedophilia given his track
record and relative lack of conventional morals. On many of the
trips, Bill refused Secret Service escorts, who would have been
witnesses of any misbehavior. On one
lengthy trip to
Africa in 2002, Bill and Jeffrey were accompanied by accused
pedophile actor Kevin Spacey and a number of young girls, scantily
clad “employees” identified only as “massage.” Epstein was
also a major contributor to the Clinton Foundation and was present at
the wedding of Chelsea Clinton in 2010.
With
an election year coming up, the Democrats would hardly want the
public to be reminded of Bill’s exploits, but one has to wonder
where and how deep the investigation might go. There is also a
possible Donald Trump angle. Though Donald may not have been a
frequent flyer on the “Lolita Express,” he certainly moved in the
same circles as the Clintons and Epstein in New York and Palm Beach,
plus he is by his own words roughly as amoral as Bill Clinton. In
June 2016, one Katie
Johnson filed
lawsuit in New York claiming she had been repeatedly raped by Trump
at an Epstein gathering in 1993 when she was 13 years old. In a
2002 New
York Magazineinterview Trump
said “I’ve known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy… he’s
a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful
women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No
doubt about it – Jeffrey enjoys his social life.”
Selective
inquiries into wrongdoing to include intense finger pointing are the
name of the game in Washington, and the affaire Epstein also has all
the hallmarks of a major espionage case, possibly tied to Israel.
Unless Epstein is an extremely sick pedophile who enjoys watching
films of other men screwing twelve-year-old girls the whole filming
procedure smacks of a sophisticated intelligence service compiling
material to blackmail prominent politicians and other public figures.
Those blackmailed would undoubtedly in most cases cooperate with the
foreign government involved to avoid a major scandal. It is called
recruiting “agents of influence.” That is how intelligence
agencies work and it is what they do.
That
Epstein was perceived as being intelligence-linked was made clear in
Acosta’s comments when
being cleared by the Trump transition team. He was asked “Is the
Epstein case going to cause a problem [for confirmation hearings]?”
… “Acosta had explained, breezily, apparently, that back in the
day he’d had just one meeting on the Epstein case. He’d cut the
non-prosecution deal with one of Epstein’s attorneys because he had
‘been told’ to back off, that Epstein was above his pay grade. ‘I
was told Epstein belonged to intelligence and to leave it alone.’”
Questions
about Epstein’s wealth also suggest a connection with a secretive
government agency with deep pockets. The
New York Timesreports
that “Exactly
what his money management operation did was cloaked in secrecy, as
were most of the names of whomever he did it for. He claimed to work
for a number of billionaires, but the only known major client was
Leslie Wexner, the billionaire founder of several retail chains,
including The Limited.”
But
whose intelligence service? CIA and the Russian FSB services are
obvious candidates, but they would have no particular motive to
acquire an agent like Epstein. That leaves Israel, which would have
been eager to have a stable of high-level agents of influence in
Europe and the United States. Epstein’s contact with the Israeli
intelligence service may have plausibly come through his associations
with Ghislaine Maxwell, who allegedly served as his key procurer of
young girls. Ghislaine is the daughter
of Robert Maxwell,
who died or possibly was assassinated in mysterious circumstances in
1991. Maxwell was an Anglo-Jewish businessman, very cosmopolitan in
profile, like Epstein, a multi-millionaire who was very controversial
with what were regarded as ongoing ties to Mossad. After his death,
he was given a state funeral by Israel in which six serving and
former heads of Israeli intelligence listened while Prime Minister
Yitzhak Shamir eulogized:
“He has done more for Israel than can today be said”
*(Trump
(left) with Robert Maxwell (right) at an event.)
Epstein
kept a black
book identifying
many of his social contacts, which is now in the hands of
investigators. It included fourteen personal phone numbers belonging
to Donald Trump, including ex-wife Ivana, daughter Ivanka and current
wife Melania. It also included Prince Bandar of Saudi Arabia, Tony
Blair, Jon Huntsman, Senator Ted Kennedy, Henry Kissinger, David
Koch, Ehud Barak, Alan Dershowitz, John Kerry, George Mitchell, David
Rockefeller, Richard Branson, Michael Bloomfield, Dustin Hoffman,
Queen Elizabeth, Saudi King Salman and Edward de Rothschild.
Mossad
would have exploited Epstein’s contacts, arranging their
cooperation by having Epstein wining and dining them while flying
them off to exotic locations, providing them with women and
entertainment. If they refused to cooperate, it would be time for
blackmail, photos and videos of the sex with underage women.
It
will be very interesting to see just how far and how deep the
investigation into Epstein and his activities goes. One can expect
that efforts will be made to protect top politicians like Clinton and
Trump and to avoid any examination of a possible Israeli role. That
is the normal practice, witness the 9/11 Report and the Mueller
investigation, both of which eschewed any inquiry into what Israel
might have been up to. But this time, if it was indeed an Israeli
operation, it might prove difficult to cover up the story since the
pedophile aspect of it has unleashed considerable public anger from
all across the political spectrum. Senator
Chuck Schumer,
self-described as Israel’s “protector” in the Senate, is loudly
calling for the resignation of Acosta. He just might change his tune
if it turns out that Israel is a major part of the story.

Miljardair
Jeffrey Epstein werd afgelopen zaterdag gearresteerd vanwege het
beheren van een pedo-netwerk en het bezit van duizenden naaktfoto’s
van minderjarige meisjes.
Dit
soort zaken komen één of twee keer per jaar voor, echter zelden met zoveel
bekende welgestelden als klant. Er zou sprake
zijn van een klein zwart boekje waarin de namen te lezen zijn van oorlogsmisdadiger Bill Clinton
(….), David Koch (van het Koch Brothers imperium), Courtney Love,
de Britse prins Andrew en één van de grootste schoften van de
laatste 20 jaar: Tony Blair.

Before
SHTF, Let’s Revisit Jeffrey Epstein’s Little Black Book
With
the Saturday arrest of Jeffrey Epstein – who is reportedly
offering to name elite pedophiles in exchange for leniency, a
leaked copy of the billionaire sex predator’s “little
black book”
may provide some insight into some very rich individuals who should
be nervous right about now.
The
book was smuggled out of Epstein’s residence by his former house
manager, Alfredo Rodriguez, who was busted trying to sell it in 2009
for $50,000 – only to get caught, charged with obstruction of
justice, and die in prison after 18 months from a ‘long
illness.’
According
to an FBI
affidavit,
Rodriguez described the address book and the information contained
within it as the “Holy Grail” or “Golden Nugget”
to unraveling Epstein’s sprawling child-sex network. But despite
having been subpoenaed for everything he had on his former boss,
Rodriguez didn’t share it with the FBI or Palm Beach Police
Department detectives investigating Epstein. Instead, he tried to
make a $50,000 score by covertly peddling the black book to one of
the attorneys launching lawsuits at Epstein on behalf of his victims.
–Gawker
According
to a 2015 Gawker article, Epstein’s little black book
contains hundreds of names that a hobnobbing socialite
billionaire might keep on hand, however
around 50 of the entries were circled by Rodriguez – “including
those of many of Epstein’s suspected victims and
accomplices,” according
to the report.
Some
of the names in the book include:
Ralph
Fiennes
Alec Baldwin
David Blaine
Jimmy Buffett
Courtney
Love
Charlie Rose
Mike Wallace
Barbara Walters
Ehud
Barak
Tony Blair
David Koch
John Gutfreund
Prince
Andrew
And
of course:
Bill
Clinton and Donald Trump
About
50 of the entries, including those of many of Epstein’s suspected
victims and accomplices as well as Trump,
Love, Barak, Dershowitz, and others,
were circled by Rodriguez.
…
In
addition to the names above, as well as scores of apparent underage
victims in Florida, New Mexico, California, Paris, and the United
Kingdom listed under the rubric of “massage,” the circled
entries include:
Billionaire
Leslie Wexner
Former
New Mexico Governor Bruce King
Former
New Mexico Governor and Democratic presidential hopeful Bill
Richardson
Peter
Soros, the nephew of George Soros
Former
Miss Sweden and socialite New York City doctor Eva Andersson Dubin
Some
of the circled entries include additional notes—one address in New
York City, for instance, is marked as an “apt. for models,”
and two names bear the marking “witness.” –Gawker
When
asked why his name might have been circled, longtime Epstein
associate Alan Dershowitz said in 2015: “I’ve never seen the
book and I have no idea what it means. I was neither a victim nor a
material witness—I never witnessed any crimes or participated in
any crimes, and I can prove it.”
How a future Trump Cabinet member gave a serial sex abuser the deal of a lifetime
Jeffrey Epstein avoided a lifetime sentence for underage human and sex trafficking and abuse. Learn how the deal drafted by then prosecutor Alexander Acosta and Epstein’s defense team made the…
Dershowitz
joined a 2017 motion brought by filmmaker and author Mike
Cernovich to unseal records from a 2015 defamation casebrought
by Epstein victim Virginia Roberts Giuffre against British
socialite Ghislaine Maxwell. Giuffre says Maxwell helped
Epstein traffic herself and other underage girls to sex parties at
the billionaire pedophile’s many residences.
The full scope of Epstein’s international sex trafficking ring.
In
a Monday afternoon statement, Bill Clinton’s Press Secretary Angel
Ureña tweeted that the former president “knows nothing about
the terrible crimes Jeffrey Epstein pleaded guilty to in Florida some
years ago,” and claims that he has only flown on the “Lolita
Express” four times, with Secret Service detail “on every
leg of every trip.”
Trump,
meanwhile,
was reportedly the “only one” to help a prosecuting
attorney representing one of Epstein’s alleged victims. The President
is also said to have booted
Epstein from his Mar-a-Lago club after
he was found trying to recruit underage girls.
One
theory on Epstein’s racket is described below by
Twitter user @quantian1
So, apologies in advance, but I want to do a quick little THREAD to explain my theory of what the Epstein story really is. I promise this isn’t some crazy Pizzagate conspiracy about space lizards, just a neat little explanation that IMO perfectly fits the known facts (0/13):
(2/13) The obvious route is, well, obvious: you could just be a pimp, offering underage prostitute services to very rich people. This has two problems: you’re very disposable (see: DC madam), and it’s also not super lucrative. You can’t charge millions of dollars up front.
(3/13) The second level though follows instantly: You don’t need to charge up front, just get them to have underage sex, and then blackmail them afterwards for hush money. Better ROI, but you’re still a liability, and producing and receiving big bribe money raises big questions.
(4/13) So, what to do? Well, the second idea has some merits. First, you need to recruit people in. Have lots of massive parties at your spacious home (check), invite top academics, artists, politicians to encourage people to come (check), and supply lots of young women (check)
(5/13) You don’t even have to do anything, and most people invited might even be totally unaware of the real purpose of the parties! But, sooner or later, some billionaire will get handsy, she’ll escort him to a room with a hidden camera, things happen. Morning after, you strike.
(6/13) You inform him she was really 15, but you offer him a nice, neat way to buy your silence: a large allocation to your hedge fund, which charges 2/20 (check). To ensure nobody else asks questions, you also take the extraordinary step of demanding power of attorney (check)
(7/13) The fund is offshore in a tax haven (check) and nobody will see the client list (check). Of course, you don’t really know anything about investing, instead making up some nonsense about currency trading (check), and nobody on Wall Street has ever traded with you (check)
(8/13) The fund itself doesn’t need investment personnel (check), only some back office people to process the wires (check). You don’t want to money from non-pedophiles, or they’ll notice you’ve just put it in a S&P 500 fund, so you reject all incoming inquiries (check)
(9/13) A $20 million wire from Billionaire X to you with no obvious reason will raise many questions, and the IRS will certainly want to know what you did to warrant it. A $5 million quarterly fee for managing $1 billion in assets? Nobody bats an eye.
(10/13) Because of this structure, you’re extraordinarily secretive about client lists (check) because they aren’t clients, they’re pedophiles paying you bribes, and they also are very secretive, which is why no letters or return streams ever leak (check)
(11/13) Occasionally you may also try this trick on other people: important political figures, mayors, prosecutors, etc. They don’t invest in the fund, but it’s nice to have them in your pocket. Others (academics, artists, etc.) can just be bought with money as a PR smokescreen.
(12/13) And, of course, the scam can be kept going as long as people are willing to pay, which is forever. If you’re ever caught, just lean on some of your other friends in government to lean on the prosecutor to get you a sweetheart deal. There’s almost zero risk.
(13/13) And the last piece of the puzzle is the evidence. You’d want it somewhere remote, but accessible: a place the US can’t touch but you have an excuse to visit all the time to update. Remember that offshore fund?
I bet there’s a *very* interesting safe deposit box there.
