This episode of Redacted News, hosted by Clayton and Natali Morris, dives deep into newly surfaced documents and investigative reports exposing Jeffrey Epstein's significant links to Israeli intelligence, specifically Mossad and top officials like Ehud Barak. The hosts are joined by investigative journalist Murtaza Hussein of Drop Site News, who discusses his team's recent revelations that mainstream and even alternative media have almost entirely ignored. The episode also touches on the suppression of information by U.S. government agencies, the politicization of the Epstein case, implications for U.S.-Israeli intelligence cooperation, and how these relationships steered global surveillance deals. Further segments examine the rise of Christian nationalism and urban violence issues in Chicago.

Epstein, Mossad & the Deepening Cover-Up

[04:55–20:06]

Main Theme

• The Trump administration and mainstream media are actively avoiding discussion of Jeffrey Epstein’s ties to Israeli intelligence.
• New evidence from lawsuits, government documents, and leaked emails show extensive connections between Epstein and Israeli officials, military intelligence, and “backchannel diplomacy” in international surveillance deals.
• Investigative journalists Murtaza Hussein and Ryan Grimm (Drop Site News) spotlight these connections, describing an informational “blackout” in both government and media circles.

Key Discussion Points and Insights

• Suppression of Information:

  • Mainstream and alternative media have ignored Epstein's Mossad ties.
  • Government document releases are deliberately disorganized, making investigation difficult.

• Leaked Evidence & Reporting:

  • Recent headline: “Israeli Spy Stayed for Weeks at a Time with Jeffrey Epstein in Manhattan.”
  • Not secret info: House Oversight disclosures, legal documents from the JPMorgan/US Virgin Islands case, and hacked emails (Distributed Denial Secrets leak) all publicly available.
  • Epstein’s contacts span Israeli military/intelligence, Russian intelligence, U.S. officials, and oligarchs.

• Dynamic with Ehud Barak:

  • Former Israeli PM/Defense Minister Barak sought out Epstein; the dynamic was reversed from what most expect, with Epstein providing access, not the other way around.
  • Quote:
    “The power dynamic is all really on Epstein’s side in these conversations. …Epstein is effectively helping Barak…promoting Israeli intelligence–linked surveillance technology firms to foreign countries.” – Murtaza Hussein [09:00]
  • Epstein facilitated multi-million-dollar tech/surveillance deals via Israeli firms in countries like Mongolia and Cote d’Ivoire, often preceding formal state deals.

• Was Epstein Mossad?

  • Hussein suggests Epstein wasn’t a direct Mossad asset; if anything, “Mossad was beneath him in some hierarchy that he was under.”
  • “He had more contacts with people around the world...than anyone, I think, can ever organically have.” – M. Hussein [09:00]
  • Epstein’s wealth and access can’t be explained by conventional means.

• Alex Acosta and the ‘Intelligence’ Explanation:

  • Former U.S. prosecutor Acosta reportedly said the hands-off prosecution of Epstein was because he was “intelligence”—then later retracted or disavowed that.
  • Yet, documents released alongside these denials directly show high-level Israeli intelligence operatives staying with Epstein.

• Surveillance, NSA, and Foreign Policy:

  • Snowden files indicate the U.S. was itself surveilling Barak and the Israeli military intelligence agent who visited Epstein.
  • Epstein brokered unusual backchannel deals (e.g., Israel-Mongolia security pact, Israel-Russia contacts during the Syrian war), acting in a diplomatic capacity despite being a private citizen.

• Mechanics of “Security Deals”—The Case of Yoni Koren

  • Koren, a decorated Israeli intelligence official, worked with Epstein and Barak to sell Israeli cyberweapons and build surveillance states for authoritarian regimes.
  • “They would go to foreign countries…we have a way of solving your security problems. …With the help of these Israeli firms…epic surveillance apparatus.” – M. Hussein [16:22]
  • Epstein’s role was crucial in making introductions and leveraging influence to close backchannel deals.

• The Political & Intelligence Implications:

  • The U.S., Israeli, Russian, and other intelligence agencies appear to have operated in tandem or parallel, leveraging Epstein as a “fixer” or honeypot.
  • Efforts to expose the full details are hindered by both the overt secrecy of governments and the reluctance of journalists/institutions to cover a “politically radioactive” issue.
  • Quote:
    “I can see why they’re trying to suppress it…But it’s in the interests of people who live in this country and pay taxes that they should know what exactly was happening.” – M. Hussein [12:53]

Notable Quotes & Moments

• "[On the media ignoring this] – It’s a good question. Because the silence is deafening." – Clayton Morris [04:55]

• “It’s kind of all out there, but people have not been discussing this angle of the story.” – Murtaza Hussein [06:26]

• "I think the answer is no, I don't think he did work for Mossad. It was more like Mossad was beneath him in some hierarchy." – M. Hussein [09:00]

• "He brokered peace deals between international countries. That belies any logic." – Natali Morris [14:30]

Listener & Host Reactions: Media, Government, and the Culture of Suppression

[24:59–27:19]

• Listeners and hosts express frustration at the politicization and suppression of Epstein’s files.
• Hosts note that both the Trump administration and commentators like Cash Patel and Dan Bongino publicly downplay the significance of the Israeli intelligence angle.
• The panel and guests discuss high-level “compromat” (blackmail files) on U.S. officials, and the likelihood that intelligence agencies operate honeypot schemes, possibly for leverage over politicians.
• “[CIA, Mossad, MI6] don’t operate independently. …They’re all in one group, so operating Jeffrey Epstein as some sort of honeypot operation…” – Clayton Morris [28:18]

Broader Context: Intelligence Work, “Agency Adjacent” Operatives, and the Deep State

[32:13–34:52]

• Discussion of the “adjacent” network of intelligence assets—people not directly employed by agencies, but working on their behalf (echoes of “Confessions of an Economic Hitman”).
• Debate about ‘working for’ versus ‘working with’ intelligence agencies.
• Hosts reference investigative journalist Whitney Webb, clarifying that her reporting specifies Epstein’s connections to, but not formal employment by, Mossad.

Chicago Crime & ICE/Immigration Segment

[36:47–47:36] (Summary truncated to focus on major podcast themes)

• Briefly, Terry Newsom discusses the escalation of violence against ICE agents and general breakdown in law and order in Chicago, with left-leaning politicians and media painted as complicit.

The Rise of Christian Nationalism – U.S. & U.K. Fears Analyzed

[48:34–63:11]

Main Theme

• Media panic around “Christian Nationalism,” particularly in the U.K. and U.S., is scrutinized; hosts question why Christian identity is demonized while other religious or ethnic identities are not.
• Interview with Father Robinson (British priest in the U.S.) examines what “Christian nationalism” means, its historical context, and public misconceptions.

Key Points

• The U.K. is literally a Christian nation by law and tradition (King as head of Church of England), yet “Christian nationalist” is used as a slur.
• “The left can go, ‘You’re a Christian nationalist,’ like, we were all Christian nationalists two minutes ago!” – Father Robinson [49:39]
• Widespread ignorance or willful misdirection about “Judeo-Christian” values by pundits like Mark Levin is discussed—Father Robinson asserts:
  “This country was around for 200 years before the word ‘Judeo-Christian’ was even uttered anywhere in the world.” [54:01]
• Clarifies that loving your neighbor in a Christian context means wanting to lead them to Christ, while making clear distinctions between loving individuals and opposing ideologies like Islam.
• Father Robinson expresses that Christianity is being diluted by attempts at religious pluralism; insists the U.S. was founded explicitly as a Christian country.

Notable Quotes

• “To love your enemy means to lead them to Christ.” – Father Robinson [56:09]
• “Americans need to say, ‘No more mosques. This is not a country for mosques. …Islam is evil. And Americans need to say, we don’t want it in our country.’” – Father Robinson [57:41]
• “Freedom of religion, what they meant was you can be Catholic or Protestant. …What they didn’t mean is you could be a Jew or a Muhammadan or a Hindu or a Sikh.” – Father Robinson [59:49]

Closing Remarks & Listener Interaction

[63:11–end]

• Hosts interact with listener comments and super chats, addressing questions about Christianity, politics, guest preferences, and more book recommendations.

Summary Takeaways

• New documentation and leaks reveal deeper, underreported ties between Jeffrey Epstein and Israeli intelligence, including actual stays by Israeli military intelligence at Epstein’s residence and facilitation of international surveillance tech deals.
• There’s a profound lack of mainstream or even alternative media engagement on the Epstein–Mossad story, likely due to political sensitivities and active suppression.
• The guest experts reject the simple narrative that Epstein was “just Mossad,” instead presenting him as an international fixer above many intelligence hierarchies, with possible agency “adjacent” or symbiotic roles.
• The episode highlights the continued relevance of the Epstein case for American politics, foreign policy, and media integrity, demanding full transparency.
• Broader segments provide equally uncompromising takes on topics from Christian nationalism to city violence, often critiquing media spin and establishment narratives.
