There's more to Jeffrey Epstein's story than what we've seen in the headlines. In a new book, it's revealed that Epstein wasn't just a wealthy financier but also a covert operative for the Israeli intelligence agency, Mossad. According to the book, he was recruited into this shadowy world by none other than the father of his girlfriend, Ghislaine Maxwell. This revelation adds a chilling layer to an already complex narrative.

The explosive details come straight from Epstein's own handler within the intelligence community, as shared in the gripping true crime book Epstein: Dead Men Tell No Tales. This book dives deep into Epstein's world, uncovering secrets that have remained hidden until now.

Israeli intelligence agent Ari Ben-Menashe spoke with journalist James Robertson, shedding light on Epstein and Maxwell's secretive "honeytrap" operations. These operations involved leveraging intimate relationships for intelligence purposes, often targeting high-profile individuals.

Ben-Menashe described Epstein as someone who facilitated encounters between politicians and young women. "Mr. Epstein was the simple idiot who was going around providing girls to all kinds of politicians in the United States," he stated. "Now, let's be clear, f—cking around isn't a crime. Sure, it might cause embarrassment, but it's not illegal." However, he emphasized that the real crime came when these encounters involved underage girls.

Epstein's activities went beyond mere facilitation. Ben-Menashe explained that Epstein and Maxwell used these encounters to gather leverage against powerful individuals. "They would just blackmail people," Robertson added, highlighting the darker side of Epstein's operations.

Recruitment by Maxwell's Father

Ben-Menashe claims that Ghislaine Maxwell's father, Robert Maxwell, a prominent British publishing magnate, was already a Mossad operative when he introduced Epstein to the intelligence world. "Maxwell started liking Epstein and, in my opinion, felt that this guy was good for his daughter," Ben-Menashe explained. "He saw an opportunity to mentor him in a paternal way." Epstein's recruitment into Mossad operations was reportedly sanctioned by higher-ups within Israeli intelligence.

Inside the Operations

The book, written by Dylan Howard, Melissa Cronin, and Robertson, delves into the extensive surveillance and blackmail network Epstein established in his luxurious residences across Manhattan, Palm Beach, and the Caribbean. Epstein's ability to manipulate and control high-profile individuals was unmatched, creating a web of secrets that extended far and wide.

Epstein's death in his prison cell on August 10, 2019, left many questions unanswered. Was it suicide, or was he silenced by the very men he had leverage over? The book provides new insights into these mysteries, offering readers a chance to uncover the truth behind one of the most talked-about cases of our time.
