For years, Jeffrey Epstein has been framed primarily as a lone sexual predator embedded in elite social circles. While his crimes against underage girls are real, horrific, and central to his story, this episode examines a dimension of the Epstein case that much of the mainstream media has avoided: his deep and sustained ties to Israel, Israeli intelligence, and the global surveillance and defence industry.
In this episode, investigative journalist Antony Loewenstein explores newly released documents, leaked correspondence, and long-ignored reporting that suggest Epstein operated as a key intermediary for Israeli political, intelligence, and corporate interests over decades. Drawing on reporting from Drop Site News, court documents, and historical context, the episode interrogates how Epstein accumulated immense power, wealth, and access and why his role appears to have been protected even after his criminal behaviour was widely known in elite circles.
Produced by: Antony Loewenstein, Lem Zakharia and Lena Helou
