There's a coordinated push to paint Epstein as a pro Russian actor. Meanwhile we're supposed to ignore the fact that he was in constant contact with high level Israeli officials, to the point of having an ex prime minister spend extensive time at his home.

Let's also ignore the Israeli government owning units in the New York apartment building that he was also deeply involved in. He took part in the building's management and used it to house many of his associates, employees, and victims.

His life was much more intertwined with Israeli officialdom than with any connection to the Russians.

He had very close ties to wealthy Zionists like Robert Maxwell and Leslie Wexner of the Victoria's secret Fortune. Together with his lawyer Alan Dershowitz he sought to smear and blackball John Mearsheimer and Stephen Walt over their book "The Israeli Lobby and US foreign policy".

So what makes more sense here? Was he a Russian asset or an Israeli one?
