Jeffrey Epstein’s “island” of depravity and pedophilia had global fingerprints, extending from the United States to the UK, Russia, and Israel.
Unfortunately, American corporate media has downplayed the significant ties between Epstein and Israel, including his extraordinarily close relationship to former Prime Minister Ehud Barak. The latest release reveals that Epstein introduced Barak to Peter Thiel and Palantir, the surveillance company that proudly works with Israel during its genocidal campaign in Gaza and helps ICE during its reign of terror on American streets.
In a 2018 email, Epstein joked with Barak that “you should make clear that i dont work for mossad. :)” while he was arranging a meeting between Barak and former Qatari Prime Minister Hamad bin Jassim bin Jaber Al Thani. There are credible allegations that Epstein was involved with Mossad and actively helped broker deals between Israel and other governments using a backchannel.
Ghislaine Maxwell’s father, Robert, who is currently buried in the Mount of Olives, also allegedly had very close ties to Mossad. An expert swimmer, he died after falling overboard from his yacht in 1991 in an “accidental drowning,” while many speculate he was actually murdered. Regardless, after his death, Ghislaine and Epstein drew closer, and the latter became flush with more money.
If anything, the ties to Israel must be investigated and explored to bring full transparency, accountability, and justice. Unfortunately, the rules are just different when it comes to our closest ally. The Trump and Biden administrations have given billions of dollars of aid to Israel during its ongoing genocide. We’ve seen the gaslighting and censorship of pro-Palestinian critics. Despite AIPAC meddling in US politics and harming Democrats to protect Israel, Senator Chuck Schumer last week openly said, “I have many jobs as leader…and one is to fight for aid to Israel, all the aid that Israel needs.”
Zeteo reporter Prem Thakker joins The Left Hook to explain Epstein’s connection to Israel, Ehud Barak, and why U.S. media is turning a blind eye to the damning revelations.
