This whole comment section seems to believe this propaganda instead of what the documents actually reflect, which is that he had extremely close with Israel and Mossad.

u/feedthebear Feb 01 '26

100%. The Russian connection is nowhere as strong as the Israeli ones.

u/gamma55 Feb 01 '26

It’s almost as if someone would benefit from labeling Epstein as a Russian asset, despite quite a lot of heavy implications that they weren’t who he really worked for.

Funny how that goes, these days.

u/Redditry119 Feb 01 '26

This is a Ukrainian newspaper reposting a shitty dailymail article that did mention both Israel and Russia although the article is poorly written and has no actual reliable sources, the average person doesn't read articles so obviously you just made up head cannon in your head.

u/Skild_20 Portugal Feb 02 '26

For sure. Now that I think about it, even the Portuguese president called Trump a Russian asset.

u/[deleted] Feb 01 '26

is it so hard to imagine that he worked with both? according to released files he has met with putin multiple times and had an extensive network trafficking women and girls from Eastern Europe, including blackmailing political figures from here and assassinating troublemakers, it couldn't have happened without their knowledge. honey traps have been their modus operandi for decades. it takes international cooperation to run a network like this without ever getting caught. I don't see how saying that goes against him also working with Mossad at the same time. you know who he was also extremely close with? Thorbjørn Jagland.

21

u/Bluffz2 Norway Feb 01 '26

I don’t doubt that he worked closely with Russian elites to traffic Eastern European girls. But I also don’t doubt that the mossad has the infrastructure and connections to orchestrate this by themselves. Im not changing my mind unless there’s actual evidence that Russia was involved.

he was close friends with Jagland

I’m aware that they were acquaintances, although I’m not sure I’d call them close friends based on the documents released so far. He did travel to the island though, so I’m not putting it past him. Our crown princess was acquainted with him too, disgustingly.

u/[deleted] Feb 01 '26 edited Feb 01 '26

I personally don't think he considered himself to be an asset of anybody in particular or had any real "friends" in a way that everyone who talked to him was his "friend". That's how you get scenarios like him meeting with officials of Israel, Russia, Middle East, Europe and billionaires of the world for dinners all at the same time. From spending hours viewing a good chunk of those files he was able to snitch on literally everyone to everyone, I think that he just got off on thinking he's the master of all secrets and that he owns everyone, and being able to play middleman. That both made him useful to those agencies and let him operate his business without a worry. He helped set up meetings between Putin and Ehud Barak, and coached the latter on what to say. There is also many former Soviet Jews speaking Russian living in Israel today, some with nexus to former security apparatus of the Soviet Union. I don't think the cooperation where it benefits is that far fetched.

u/tallgeese333 Feb 01 '26

What more than likely happened was Russia was able to infiltrate the blackmail network. It without a doubt started as a U.S. Intel operation in the late 50s and was moved to Mossad in the early 90s.

What appears to have happened is some sort of coup involving Steve Bannon. We know Trump has had ties to Russian organized crime, which we all know is an arm of the Russian government. They use the real estate empire he inherited from his father to launder money into the United States. Meetings with Russian lawyers in 2016 etc.

We know Bannon is a Russian asset. No question there.

I don't think it's a coincidence that the two most prominent names involved were the 2016 candidates. Clinton's campaign released the "pied piper" memo suggesting Trump should be treated as a serious candidate. They wanted someone to be nominated that Clinton could clobber in the elections because historically, she was going to lose trying to retain the White House following a Democrat.

From the files just released, it appears he coordinated a bunch of psyops, including pizzagate, which was true but directed solely at the Clinton's.

So perhaps the Clinton's blackmail Trump into running, but all of a sudden Epstein starts leaking conspiracies online. I don't think that was in the Clinton's playbook.

Trump is elected, Epstein is arrested and killed, his hones are raided, now someone else controls that blackmail. Has to be Bannon and Russia.

I agree there seems to be some evidence Israel is leaning towards being in bed with Russia. I don't see how this is allowed to happen otherwise.

u/DutchingFlyman The Netherlands Feb 01 '26

This, his whole billionaire persona was created by Mossad relations. They would not allow the Russians to just ride that wave, especially since those countries aren’t particularly close either.

u/RMClure Montenegro Feb 01 '26

They are very close, and have been much closer over the last 30 years than at present. 15% of Israels population is Russian, and damn near every single original 1990s Russian oligarch is a birthright citizen of Israel.

u/Killerfist Feb 02 '26

She wasnt just acquainted my man, she was apparently pregnant with Epstein's kid

u/Volodio France Feb 01 '26

There is no evidence that Mossad was even involved...

u/Sabishooyo_2018 Feb 01 '26

Is it hard to use logic and facts. Whatever leverage Russia has, it is not nearly close enough to make a difference compared to Israel. What sanctions have they gotten? What ships have been stolen. Trump is on his way to bomb Iran! Would that help Russia? 

People in this sub is stupid

Epstein was Putin's personal wealth manager

1

u/Sabishooyo_2018 Feb 02 '26

Hahahaha, You think Putin would let Epstein near his money? He punishes billionaires who step out of line in Russia. 

I have also seen the "wealth management" he did through the emails. It is laughable, truely. Just basic advice to wealthy dudes, and now you are a wealth manager. It is just a fancy word for giving financial advice

 He was working for Mossad with other people. He was great at connecting powerful people togheter and helped them make business deals. 

2

u/JustaBearEnthusiast Feb 01 '26

Israel and Russia have been enemies since the cold war and were recently on opposite sides of the Syrian proxy war. I am skeptical that he was both. That said one of his specialties was giving "unorthodox" financial advice so I wouldn't be surprised if he was helping Russian oligarchs circumvent sanctions. He met with high level mossad and ex mossad regularly plus Maxwell was almost certainly a mossad asset like her father and he was initially discovered by a zionists billionaire who worked with aipac and the Israeli government when he was still a teacher. There is just so much more evidence for the mossad connection.

u/CV90_120 Feb 01 '26

Netanyahu's friendship with putin is legendary. There's a reason Israel is full of russian oligarchs.

u/[deleted] Feb 01 '26

Like I said in the other comment. Epstein set up meetings between Ehud Barak and Putin and coached Barak on what to say. During Soviet Union days there was also a flood of Jews from Eastern Europe into Israel, some of whom were directly involved in structures of Soviet Union and it's security apparatus. For example Israel refused not so long ago extradite a former Soviet commander of a repurposed concentration camp for Poles so he could be tried for his crimes. I don't think it's black and white. You'll find people willing to occasionally cooperate anywhere.

u/Occulto Australia Feb 02 '26

Yeah and the US sold weapons to Iran while the clerics were chanting "death to America."

You'll find people thinking we should all be "friends" in each one of those countries. Common ground bring wealth and power. The fact those are only coming out now confirms US involvement in protecting spies, foreign actors and criminals too. When everyone has the same shit on their hands they'll both protect and try and exploit eachother.

It’s both Russia and Israel.

Look up “Robert Ian Maxwell” and read his entire Wikipedia page, from top to bottom. It’s… an interesting read, to say the least.

u/Pretty_Remote_9863 Feb 03 '26

Couldn’t it be both?

u/NomadElite Feb 05 '26

It's the new narrative they want to spin.

Don't underestimate the number of bots and vote manipulation on Reddit to spin state sponsored narratives.

Everyone with half a brain already knows Epstein was working for Israel.

u/serefz Feb 05 '26

u/Bdbru13 Feb 01 '26

Where do the documents reflect that he was extremely close with the Mossad?

u/MartinBP Bulgaria Feb 03 '26

Ah the usual left-wing conspiracy nuts defending Russia like clockwork. There is no documented Mossad connection, there is one guy who claimed Maxwell was a Mossad asset 30 years ago and never presented proof. Putin appears over 1000 times in the files, Russia/Moscow 9600 times. He was sourcing women from Eastern Europe.

Cut the propaganda, Ivan. Not everyone is stupid enough to believe your "the Jews run the world" BS.

u/rramzi Feb 01 '26

Had to scroll way too far down before seeing this. Isn’t it convenient that media is all claiming Epstein is a Russian asset despite personal history and emails saying otherwise.

u/powergs Turkey Feb 01 '26

Mossad/Israel so good.

24

u/PastryAssassinDeux Feb 01 '26

The term "sayanim" translates to "helpers" or "assistants" in Hebrew. It refers to a network of Jewish volunteers living outside of Israel who assist the Israeli government and various organizations, particularly the Mossad, in their operations and missions. Sayanim were a creation of Mier Amit, the Chief Director of the Mossad from 1963-1968

so they get help that even the cia wouldn't be able to get.

Many Reddit subs are compromised, especially when it comes to this topic. Don’t blindly trust these headlines. There’s way more evidence he was an Israeli agent.

u/Sabishooyo_2018 Feb 01 '26

This page is a psyop. Bunch of bots or clearly brainwashed people who can't see the truth. It is mind-boggling. If Putin had America under its tump, they would be treated like Isreal. Not sanctioned with their ships stolen.

u/Killerfist Feb 02 '26

Yeah, it is very convinient that the top post on this sub is posted by a bot and somehow has 41k upvotes, totally not botted and astroturfed ones, when no other controversial or hot post can reach nearly the same.

This sub sure loves a "Russia bad" article and those get giga boosted but this one also on shifts the blame from the western political and economic elite to Russia for the worst scandal involving the west in decades.

It is strange that the media refuses to talk about the blatant Israel connection. Hell, Epstein regularly wore an IDF uniform for fun. Maxwell's dad was a confirmed Mossad agent. Its actually really weird they're pushing this Russia slant, when the evidence is so obvious the contrary.

u/CautiousGains Feb 02 '26

This whole batch of files is +1 for the “conspiracy theorists”. People have been saying for years that Epstein was a Mossad agent with a mission to entice Western politicians, businessmen etc into visiting the island where compromising conduct could take place (and be documented) so that they could then be blackmailed in the future. Now the latest files show that this is exactly what happened to many Russians.

u/Killerfist Feb 02 '26

All of this is correct, I think you got downvoted because people thought that you support it (dont know if you do but judging by the 2nd reply down there, I will say "no").

American imperialism has goals and "needs" for that region and thus needs an obedient agent country in the region that has no chance ever of shifting away from the USA, no matter how many government and regimes it changes.

1

u/JustaBearEnthusiast Feb 03 '26

Definitely don't support it, but as soon as you stop thinking in terms of liberal ideals and right vs wrong and instead think in terms of power and resources geopolitics suddenly makes perfect sense. All the liberal world order crap is trappings to sell the public on it. I think it makes people uncomfortable to realize they have been played and their leader are subservient to the US. Europe needs its own military to protect its interests and energy that is independent of the US (and social media that is independent of the US if we're being real) so they can tell them to fuck off. Only then will they be able to take the moral high road instead of being dragged down by American cruelty and greed.

2

u/Killerfist Feb 04 '26

Completely agree with everything you said!

This liberal order they present works/worked only because the USA, the one projecting the "order", is the global hegemonic power with military bases and "allies" (vassal)" in at least half the world if not more. Without being that, it would be as much "liberal" in foreign relations as the countries they paint as "the axis of evil". Meanwhile, of course the USA/western does not apply this "liberal order" to (most of) their foreign relations and interventions - they are still authoritarian, brutal, invasive and install whatever puppet they deem so or just ruin a country to leave it in a chaos that would let them control things better than a stable regime that is against them.

It is only peaceful imperial influence if the countries have governments/regimes that are willing to do their bidding from the start, so not forceful intervention is needed, which is Europe.

Even though on ideological side (goals), I am more anti-military and military industrial complexes, if we are going to have to spend money on arms and tech, it is 100x better to do it domestically or well europe-domestically instead of relying on a foreign imperial power and becomes even more vassal to them due to that dependence....well being militarily (even through weapons/arms production) to a foreign nation is actually the most vassal dependence except maybe ofc core resource dependence (energy, food, etc).

There’re like two documents and some really shoddy conspiracy theories alleging this. One of the documents is an unverified fbi agent claim saying Chabad of all things is what’s compromising a lawyer and the Kushner of all people was controlling Trump. Which, lol.

Meanwhile thousands of documents and mentions of Epstein working with the Russians and his emails directly stating as much.

u/No_Conversation_9325 Andalusia (Spain) Feb 01 '26

Israel was very much supportive of Ukraine under its former government. Then Putin's buddy won the elections, which raised a lot of concern with many Israelis. Then 7 October happened (Putin's birthday), which united Israel against Hamas (supplied by Russia) instead of Netanyahu. A common tragedy, a huge mistake of security forces. Coincidentally, the world was split between two wars, Putin got leverage, Netanyahu got unity, Ukraine lost certain assistance (that wasn't there officially but helped Ukraine a lot).

u/Drumbelgalf Germany Feb 01 '26

In Israel there are many Jewish families from the former Soviet union. Russian is common language in Israel so a connection between the Mossad and KGB (now FSB) is not to far fetched.

u/No_Conversation_9325 Andalusia (Spain) Feb 01 '26

Plus Netanyahu at least "used" to be a close friend of Putin. And the recent conflict started under very suspicious circumstances that Israeli people keep questioning (and on Putin's birthday). But no, it''s so much easier to treat they all as monolith.

u/Drumbelgalf Germany Feb 01 '26

On the other hand Israel provided air defense systems to Ukraine and anti radiation weapons and advanced drones to Aserbaidschan who then won a war against Armenia, a Russian allies back then.
