Just saw the news on google that the Duke of York's friendship with billionaire convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein had put him on American front pages. When I googled, it was mostly on British front pages with few old stories in couple of US mags. One of the google link suggested that a sex ring of under age girls could be being used to influence US policy on Israel. Does this pass the stink test?

As a New Yorker from humble beginnings, Jeffrey Epstein played on his blue-collar credentials and enormous wealth to extend tentacles of influence throughout America’s liberal political elite.
During the outcry over the Epstein case, it emerged that another man with a notorious appetite for young women, Bill Clinton, travelled with Epstein to a number of destinations, including three times on the billionaire’s private aircraft.
According to prison records, when Epstein was serving his jail term, his visitors included a long-time – and highly controversial – Clinton acquaintance, Arnold Prosperi.
'In the final hours of the Clinton presidency, in January 2001, Prosperi was facing three years in prison after being convicted of tax fraud. Mr Clinton commuted his sentence to house arrest.
Virginia said that yet another American liberal icon, President Obama’s Middle East peace envoy Senator George Mitchell, frequently visited Epstein’s New York residence.
Mr Mitchell, aged 77 – who previously led America’s Northern Ireland peace initiative – ‘was very close to Jeffrey,’ Virginia recalled. ‘He is very clean-cut. You wouldn’t think of him being part of Jeffrey’s crew.’
Epstein’s contacts book contains a work and a home telephone number for the senator.
Another acquaintance was Israel defence secretary Ehud Barak, whose spokesman told The Mail on Sunday: ‘Mr Barak did attend several small functions in Mr Epstein’s home in New York that were usually attended by leading businessman, university presidents, Nobel Prize Laureates and prominent public figures.’

Maybe it was inevitable that religion would come into the case. Peggy Siegal says Epstein’s two big charitable causes are science and Israel. His Brooklyn homies Dershowitz and Rubenstein are also major Israel supporters. Dershowitz has written a book about lingering anti-Semitism in elite life. Now throw in the fact that the Palm Beach police asked at least three of the girls whether they had noticed whether Epstein was circumcised. “I asked … if she knew what being circumcised meant,” the officer stated in regard to the 14-year-old.

Shortly before Maxwell's death, a former Mossad officer named Ari Ben-Menashe had approached a number of news organisations in Britain and the United States with the allegation that Maxwell and the Daily Mirror's foreign editor, Nick Davies, were both long time agents for the Israel intelligence service, Mossad. Ben-Menashe also claimed that in 1986 Maxwell had tipped off the Israeli Embassy in London that Mordechai Vanunu had given information about Israel's nuclear capability to the Sunday Times, then to the Daily Mirror. Vanunu was subsequently lured from London to Rome where he was kidnapped and returned to Israel, convicted of treason and imprisoned for 18 years.

As it goes for Israel...
By Jeffrey Epstein
The Annapolis conference, if successful in terms of finalizing plans for a two-state solution to the Israeli - Palestinian conflict, will jeopardize Israel’s prospects for survival and pave the way for the emergence of another deadly terrorist state. Perhaps, the myopic architects of this ill-conceived initiative simply failed to comprehend the long-term consequences of their plans. Perhaps, their intentions and motivations were such that they didn’t. In any case, not only Israel but America has much to lose if agreements forge ahead as planned.
Jeffrey M. Epstein is the founder and President of America’s Truth Forum. His organization (America’s Truth Forum, in association with Basics Project) took the lead in producing the first-ever and critically acclaimed symposium on the threat of radical Islamist terrorism in Washington, DC. During the most recent presidential election cycle, Mr. Epstein served as Media Relations director for a 527 political action committee that successfully organized a major advocates rally in Washington DC. Mr. Epstein has been featured on Fox & Friends and has appeared on numerous local and national television and radio talk shows.
