Mossad blackmail ring: Tucker Carlson says Jeffery Epstein worked for 'Israel'

Mossad blackmail ring: Tucker Carlson says Jeffery Epstein worked for 'Israel'

Roya News3 days ago
Conservative American commentator Tucker Carlson made explosive claims at the Turning Point USA Student Action Summit this week, saying that convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein was operating on behalf of "Israeli" intelligence, specifically Mossad, as part of an extensive blackmail operation in the United States.
These remarks came after 'conclusions' from the US Department of Justice (DOJ) and the FBI, which stated that Epstein died by suicide and that no "client list" of powerful figures exists.
"The real question was not, was Jeffrey Epstein a weirdo? The real question was why was he doing this, on whose behalf, and where was the money coming from?" Carlson said.
"I think the real answer is Jeffrey Epstein was working on behalf of intel services, probably not American. That foreign government is Israel'.
Carlson challenged the DOJ's findings, suggesting a "far more nefarious cover-up" to protect US and 'Israeli' intelligence agencies.
He referenced a discussion with Breaking Points host Sagaar Enjeti, who cited a 2021 BuzzFeed News article detailing instances where federal prosecutors allegedly avoided prosecuting CIA officers suspected of child sex crimes to safeguard "sources and methods".
Carlson also preemptively defended his claims, stating that questioning foreign government influence is a "fundamental right" and not anti-Semitic .
The theory of Epstein's intelligence ties is not new. Former 'Israeli' intelligence officer Ari Ben-Menashe has previously alleged that Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell ran a "Mossad-backed blackmail ring," claiming Maxwell's father, Robert Maxwell, was also a Mossad asset.
Former CIA officer John Kiriakou described Epstein as a "textbook example of an access agent," noting the intelligence community's reluctance to discuss accusations of him serving as an "access agent for the Israelis".
Academic discussions have also explored how Mossad has been accused of using blackmail, including "honey traps," and mentioned the "controversial Jeffrey Epstein network" in this context.
Evidence of hidden cameras at Epstein's properties and frequent visits from former 'Israeli' Prime Minister Ehud Barak have also fueled these theories.
The DOJ and FBI's recent memo aimed to put an end to such speculation, reaffirming Epstein's suicide in 2019 and stating that a "systematic review" found "no incriminating 'client list'" and "no credible evidence... that Epstein blackmailed prominent individuals".
The memo explicitly sought to quell what it said were "unfounded theories" .
However, these official pronouncements have been met with significant backlash, particularly among right-wing media and supporters of President Donald Trump, who view them as evidence of a "broader cover-up".
Even some Trump allies expressed frustration, despite his administration's FBI officials, like Kash Patel and Dan Bongino, affirming Epstein's suicide.
Mainstream media figures, such as CNN's Jake Tapper, also criticized the administration, arguing that a "trove of information" in the FBI's "heavily redacted" files should be released, stating, "The public, you, you're being played for fools here".

Unearthed 2014 article shows Zohran Mamdani's early advocacy for Palestinian rights

A resurfaced college article has shed light on Zohran Mamdani's long-standing support for the Palestinian cause, years before he became a leading figure in New York politics. Mamdani, now 33 and the Democratic nominee for New York City mayor, co-authored the piece as an undergraduate at Bowdoin College, where he co-founded the school's chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP). Published on January 10, 2014, in Bowdoin's student paper, The Bowdoin Orient, Mamdani's article strongly endorsed the American Studies Association's (ASA) decision to join the academic boycott of 'Israeli' institutions, a move aimed at pressuring 'Israel' to end its occupation of Palestinian territories. 'The American Studies Association, a group of scholars on American culture and history, recently decided to honor the call of Palestinian civil society to boycott Israeli institutions,' Mamdani wrote. 'This academic and cultural boycott aims to bring under scrutiny the actions of the Israeli government and to put pressure on Israeli institutions to end the oppressive occupation and racist policies within both Israel and occupied Palestine.' The piece criticized 'Israeli' universities for what Mamdani described as active and passive complicity in 'Israel's' military occupation. He accused them of prioritizing soldiers in admissions, discriminating against Palestinian students, developing remote-controlled bulldozers for home demolitions, and conducting research for the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF), with some institutions operating from illegal settlements built on occupied land. Mamdani rejected claims that the boycott stifled free speech, arguing instead that it had sparked wider debate about 'Israeli' human rights abuses. He specifically challenged then-Bowdoin College President Barry Mills, who opposed the boycott, accusing him of ignoring Palestinian suffering: 'Mills regrettably makes no mention of Palestinians or Palestine… When Mills speaks of the 'free exchange of knowledge, ideas, and research,' he does so while privileging partnerships with Israeli institutions over basic freedoms for Palestinians, including the rights to food, water, shelter and education.' The mayoral nominee praised Bowdoin professors who supported the ASA resolution and urged students and faculty to sign a pro-boycott petition.

Syria condemns 'Israeli' strikes on Suwayda, vows to defend its sovereignty

Syria's Foreign Ministry on Tuesday strongly condemned what it called a 'treacherous Israeli aggression' following a series of coordinated airstrikes and attacks on southern Syrian territory, accusing 'Israel' of deliberately escalating tensions in the region and pledging to defend the country through all legal means. In an official statement, the ministry said the strikes had resulted in the deaths of both military personnel and civilians. 'This aggression represents a new escalation, carried out through deliberate air raids and coordinated attacks on Syrian land,' the ministry said, calling it part of a continued pattern of 'Israeli' violations of Syrian sovereignty. 'The attacks occurred at a calculated time and within a suspicious context aimed at undermining Syria's national stability and increasing tensions in the region,' the statement added. The Foreign Ministry stressed that Syria reserves its full right to defend its land and people, affirming that it will use all tools guaranteed by international law to confront aggression and protect national security. It also reaffirmed the government's commitment to safeguarding all Syrians, including members of the Druze community, who it said are now facing direct threats as a result of 'Israeli' attacks. The strikes come amid ongoing violence in the southern governorate of Suwayda, home to Syria's Druze minority, where deadly clashes between Druze fighters and Bedouin tribes erupted over the weekend. On Tuesday, Syrian Defense Minister Murhaf Abu Qasra announced a complete ceasefire in the city following talks with local leaders. Government forces had entered Suwayda earlier in the day and raised the Syrian flag at key checkpoints. Shortly afterward, 'Israel' announced that its military had begun striking Syrian regime positions in the Suwayda region, citing the need to protect the Druze minority and ensure the demilitarization of the border zone. In a joint statement, 'Israeli' Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz said the strikes targeted forces and weapons 'brought into Suwayda to carry out operations against the Druze.' 'We are acting to prevent the Syrian regime from harming them,' the statement read. The 'Israeli' military claimed it struck several vehicles in the area, and Syrian state media confirmed the attacks. The Syrian government, however, rejected 'Israel's' stated justification. The Foreign Ministry's statement denounced the attempt to use the Druze as a pretext for foreign interference and stressed Damascus' commitment to protecting all of its citizens. The recent clashes in Suwayda have left more than 100 people dead, including Druze fighters, civilians, and members of the Bedouin community, according to war monitors and Syrian officials. Government forces were deployed to restore order but quickly became entangled in the fighting.
