The conclusion, then, is not a lurid morality tale about “bad people doing bad things,” nor the tired revelation that royals, celebrities, or billionaires behave with impunity. That much is already obvious. Child abusers exist across every class and every society. What does not exist everywhere is a system that records, archives, weaponises, and protects that abuse for strategic ends.
The Epstein case points not to isolated depravity, but to structured leverage: an architecture of blackmail in which sexual crimes become instruments of power rather than grounds for prosecution. That is why the fixation on individual scandal – princes, parties, and gossip – functions as misdirection.
The real scandal is the evidence of an intelligence-linked operation in which Mossad repeatedly appears as a point of reference, protection, and utility; an operation that embedded itself across politics, finance, media, and celebrity culture.
That’s even worse than the luck of the Irish.
A similar thing happened with my first wife’s family. A branch of the family immigrated to the US in the late 1920s. My ex was descended from them. The rest stayed in Poland and almost all were murdered by the Nazis. A very small number saw what was coming in the late 1930s and managed to escape to countries in Europe that were subsequently not occupied by the Germans. Some are still there.
A couple of people from the American branch later went to Israel. At least one I know of was disillusioned and returned. My ex is strongly anti-Zionist, believing in radical ideas such as human rights for all people.
Kudos to your ex for returning!
