|content=Do you remember when JFK took his own life in Dealy Plaza? No?

Well that’s how this reads to me.

This never was a self-made currency-trading genius billionaire. Almost certainly, this was a huge program. And someone f——d it up by hiring [[Jeffrey Epstein|Jeffery Epstein]] as its face &amp; front end.

|content=Trying to build a haystack to hide the Space Needle?

We stumble on a gigantic program w synapses connecting the UK royal family, Harvard/MIT/Stanford, Bill Gates, Kompromat, [[Robert Maxwell|Robert Maxwell’s]] [[Ghislaine Maxwell|kid]], POTUSes...and there are 1000s???

The NYT is now OJ looking for the “real killers.”

|content=It's good to see the outrage at [[Jeffrey Epstein|Jeffey Epstein]]. But there are thousands more [[Jeffrey Epstein|Jeffrey Epsteins]] out there, and tens of thousands of victims. So here's how we can channel our anger to make a difference. My Sunday column, just posted: https://nyti.ms/2LuQK5S

|content=In pretending this is mostly about a single wealthy sex offender attended by a never ending series of miraculous coincidences of ever escalating improbability, this is no longer the elephant in the living room. This is the rotting Blue Whale at the US national thanksgiving table.

|content=Now go investigate the story! If he wasn’t an asset get the official denials. Discuss a redo of Church/Pike. If there is nothing to find, we deserve to know. Is it our damn country or not? Simple question. Is the press there to get the stories or to kill them? Get this over with!

|content=I’ve spent a lot of time on this. The story here is not [[Jeffrey Epstein|Epstein]] or [[Ghislaine Maxwell|Maxwell]]. It‘s the bizarre mission of our US press to misdirect us. The questions were always the same:

[[Jeffrey Epstein|Epstein]] 'madam' [[Ghislaine Maxwell]] 'is a foreign spy hiding in Israel'

|content=A) Can you the press seek an on-the-record official denial that [[Jeffrey Epstein|Epstein]] was operating/trafficking attached to US and/or foreign intelligence?

B) Can the press tell us where Ghislaine’s passports were last seen at a border?

C) Is [[Jeffrey Epstein|Epstein’s]] death a “message killing” to us all?

E) If the hedge fund currency trading never took place, was the source of [[Jeffrey Epstein|Epstein’s]] wealth the missing assets &amp; pensions of [[Robert Maxwell]]?

I have been on this early out of a love of the US &amp; Israel. You deserved to know that this is not some plot of CIA, “The Jews” or Mossad.

|content=Moral: remember whoever it turns out was behind [[Jeffrey Epstein|Epstein]], it wasn’t “The Americans” or “the Jews”. US Jews were also both outspoken &amp; tiptoeing around this mess for 15Yrs.  [[Jeffrey Epstein|Epstein]] was an obvious cancer. But cancers are treatable. It is the US press misdirection that’s metastatic.

|content=This is the same mind numbing point over and over again. There is an unproven narrative here. If news media are propping it up, why are we treating it as news rather than storytelling without proof?

I claim that [[Jeffrey Epstein|Jeffrey Epstein’s]] fortune was likely NOT generated as a financier.

The internet fixates generally  &amp; internet Israel critics more than most. Internet inference is very weird.

That Israel and the US WERE part of a GROUP of national ICs that turned a blind eye to child sex trafficking at a *minimum*.

|content=How big is that group? Well, I believe *If* it exists it contains at least 2 nations not 1. And while I love Israel and have lived there, I’m very worried about the universal silence over this.

Why am I doing this? In part to stand up for 2 countries I *love* &amp; fear went wrong.

|content=Israel has had some terrible operations (e.g. Lillehammer) like the US (e.g. Cointelpro). And their strength comes from being strong enough to face those horrors when the happen.

And I believe in my 2 favorite nations enough to ask the questions whose answers I fear to my soul.

If you still believe that peer review has always been the gold standard in science, you simply didn’t want to look at the history of Permagon Press and its aftermath.

Peer review isn’t what we think it is. Look at how [[Robert Maxwell|Robert Maxwell’s]] Pergamon Press made his family rich by extorting universities to “complete” their libraries by creating journals that should not exist at prices universities could not afford.
