FBI documents published on the US Department of Justice website show that billionaire paedophile Jeffrey Epstein funded the group Friends of Israel Defence Forces (FIDF) and settlement-building organisation the Jewish National Fund (JNF).

Analysis of income and transfers to non-charitable exempt organisations, released by the FBI, shows that the convicted sex offender financed the FIDF, which “raises funds for active duty Israel Defence Forces soldiers and veterans”.

      When push comes to shove, Israel and Russia get along.

      Don’t look at what they say, look at what they actually do.

      Probably both. I wouldn’t even be surprised if he was a double-agent.

        For me it’s pretty clear he was a kind of a freelancer selling info to everyone. He wasn’t pretending to only work for Russians or the Israelis. Most likely he started working for the CIA and then became an independent influence peddler. He knew everyone, could connect you to anyone and sell you intel if you had the money. He was useful to everyone so everyone protected him.

        I wouldn’t be surprised if both countries knew he was working for the other… Or all however-many-countries…
