I'm Convinced Epstein Was an Israeli Access Agent

I see the exposure of the full truth of this operation as key to dismantling the corruption, manipulation, predation, and greed at the upper echelons of power in the United States and elsewhere. It’s essential for the maturation of America and the healing of our world. Without the sunlight of truth opening up this network, we cannot move our society forward in a good way.

John Kiriakou is a former CIA intelligence officer who exposed the CIA torture program (or “enhanced interrogation” program) that was operating at black sites. He did so as an act of conscience and then served 23 months in federal prison for disclosure of classified information. He has real credibility. I’ve watched dozens of his videos and he is consistently forthright and an advocate for transparency and truth. Because he’s paid a serious price for being a CIA truth teller, his perspectives carry added weight.

In the following video, Kiriakou shares his assessment at 1:37 that he is 100% confident in his assessment that Epstein was an Israeli access agent, which means someone who is tasked with gaining access to high-level people and information. Kiriakou has repeated that assessment elsewhere on other podcast shows. CIA agents are trained to be circumspect in making assessments so his 100% confidence is compelling.

For me, Kiriakou’s assessment is the final piece of evidence that gives me confidence to back the claim publicly because he is someone who intimately understands the inner workings of espionage, the means that are used, and the forces at play. In other videos, he shares that so-called “honeypot” operations, in which sex acts are used to compromise targets, are no longer run by the CIA. However, several other nations, including Israel, continue to actively use them. He also shared that when he personally briefed Israeli intelligence agents as an analyst himself, he was told that the Israelis were never allowed into the CIA headquarters. They had to meet with them at rented safe houses because the Israelis were relentless in trying to bring listening devices into the CIA. Generally, Kiriakou assessed that Israeli intelligence was the “most impressive” in the world and they were willing to use whatever means were available to gain an advantage, even with an ally.

So Israeli intelligence had both means and motive to use Epstein as an access agent to powerful figures in America. If John’s assessment happened in isolation, it would be strong evidence, but the following facts all support John’s 100% confidence assessment.

The above is really the tip of the iceberg. While I respect that not everyone might agree yet with Kiriakou that there is a 100% chance of Epstein being a Mossad access agent, based on the above, I suspect if we averaged a wide variety of seasoned opinions, we’d end up in the 90-100% odds, given what we know publicly. I imagine that the millions of unreleased files would offer definitive proof.

So why is it important that we take seriously the high probability that Epstein was working for Israel?

First, this up levels the importance of the exposure of Epstein’s network from a criminal case with unethical elites to a national security matter. If compromising videos and information were obtained by Israel against a wide swath of American power brokers, it means that those people can no longer act in our national interest and can be called upon to act as agents of Israel. Since it’s clear that the abuse and trafficking of underage victims spanned decades, compromised individuals likely number in the hundreds or perhaps even thousands. If targets included U.S. Presidents, major scientific figures, intelligence leaders, political leaders, celebrities, and more, we have to assume that there are many who remain in positions of power who can block, subvert, or impede revelations, investigations and prosecutions and that Israel still has blackmail power over them. This likely includes President Trump.

Effectively, Epstein’s operation could still be acting as a form of soft coup of American democracy. Compromised individuals are not simply under threat of reputational ruin of the compromising information were to get out but their life could be at risk if they disclose as well, given the security interests involved. It is instructive that Epstein co-conspirator Jean Luc Brunel also died in “suicide” in a jail cell at a time when the video cameras failed.

It’s clear from public reporting that Israeli intelligence engages in targeted assassinations of people they consider their enemies, which has been done throughout the Middle East. They are also willing to have a large amount of “collateral damage” - sometimes dozens of innocents - to kill a single high-value target. So if these compromised individuals threaten to divulge information that could deeply damage U.S. and global relations with Israel, they are likely justified in fearing that they could be assassinated in addition to whatever prosecution they might face. That makes it highly unlikely we’ll have self-disclosure from those who are compromised.

The implications of Epstein being a Mossad access agent are very serious. It would show that the government of Israel is willing to support international sex trafficking and pedophilia to gain leverage over targets in the United States, which could be used for extraction of military or scientific secrets, favorable treatment of Israel, or geopolitical advantage. These are not the actions of an ally.

So the exposure of a definitive Epstein-Mossad connection would likely break apart the U.S.- Israel alliance. That’s why they are likely to do whatever is necessary to prevent that disclosure, including exerting coercive power on those who are compromised to block the opening of the files and the investigations.

Accepting that Israeli intelligence was most likely behind the Epstein pedophilia ring also leads to a recognition that Americans cannot trust those in elite power who are compromised to act in alignment with American interests. And we also do not who is compromised. Epstein may be dead but the power that gives Israel would endure.

On our most pressing matter of national security, the Iran War, it means that it may not be possible to exit the war until the compromised network is exposed since Israel pulled the United States into the war after decades of trying and is clearly invested in our continuing it.

Given the timelines involved with Epstein’s extensive operations, the compomising information likely extends through both Democratic and Republican administrations. A change of political leadership likely won’t resolve the danger.

The mainstream media is only gradually showing some willingness to address this subject of the Mossad connection with rigor. A Newsweek article on July 15th chronicled some of the evidence I share above. The Wall Street Journal has participated in some exposures. But it’s remarkable how much evidence is going unreported.

One of the issues, of course, is that exposing the connections between Israeli intelligence and Epstein could amplify anti-semitism in the world. While there’s a noble impulse in restraining the rise of anti-semitism, keeping the Israel-Epstein connection in the shadows will eventually create more anti-semitism than dealing with it in a forthright way. Just as most Americans had no idea of the torture programs done at CIA black sites and no direct reponsibility in those actions, so most Jews have zero knowledge or responsibility for any criminal activities of the Israeli government.

But, and this is a big but, the Israeli government has been moderately successful in painting criticism of Israel’s government as an attack on Jews, which has created a kind of shield against accountability for the crimes of the government. That shield needs to dissolve and my guess is that when it becomes clearly established in the public mind that Epstein worked for Israeli intelligence and that the Israeli government engaged in criminal child sex trafficking and pedophilia to advance what it perceived as its national interest, the vast majority of Jews will stop instinctively defending the Israeli government and back calls for justice and moral reckoning.

How do we get to that point? It’s clear that there is a steady drip of new information and revelations. As more victims gain the courage to speak, that will help. Ultimately, with the depth of corruption of America’s power structures, I don’t think it will be possible for the United States to resolve this internally. We’ll likely need to involve the International Criminal Court to gain access to the compromising files and determine prosecutions. It’s clear that the depravity filmed in those videos is so extensive that it may be too much for the general public to see it directly but all Americans need to know that not only that justice is served but that all compromised individuals are permanently removed from power. Given the extent of the compromise and the impact on geopolitics, it will likely also require other nation’s intelligence agencies to release their information and assessments of the situation as what is released by the United States government is suspect.

That’s why this case goes beyond morality and justice for the victims, as important as that is. It goes to the heart of national security for the United States and a peaceful future for the planet as a whole. Until we are willing to face and unravel the full, terrible truths around Epstein’s network, a more positive future will be compromised. Fully understanding the connection between Epstein and Israeli intelligence is an essential step in moving forward.
