Israel Suffering Real Collateral Damage from Continued Coverup of Epstein Scandal
It’s a bit counterintuitive but the continued coverup of the Jeffrey Epstein blackmail scandal may actually be doing harm to Israel. If the Mossad was not working with Epstein, one would think that the Israeli government and pundits would go out of their way to disprove the claim. Yet, that government and its allies in the U.S. government continue to their best to keep the details hidden. The result is damage to the perceptions of Israel on the world stage.
If the Mossad wasn’t connected to Epstein, why the silence?
With the case still shrouded in secrecy, author and investigative journalist Nick Bryant is calling attention to a dangerous blind spot in public discourse: the unanswered question of whether Epstein had ties to Mossad or any other foreign intelligence service—and what that could mean for U.S. politics and foreign policy.

The political establishment inside the U.S., to include prominent figures in both parties, risk significant collateral damage with continued coverups. Many of their wealthy donors are supporters of Israel and as the Epstein coverup continues, so too does suspicion about the role of Israeli intelligence. Those suspicions are harming global perceptions of Israel and handing leverage over to the Palestinian cause.
So why not dispel them if they are unfounded. The old like from intelligence communities that, “we can neither confirm nor deny that [fill in the blank]” is not working. The smoke is leading straight to the blind spot.
Bryant, who has spent years digging into Epstein’s network and the elite figures connected to it, takes a measured but urgent position. He does not claim to have proof of Mossad involvement, but he stresses that the theory is plausible—and that if it were true, it would almost certainly involve collaboration or knowledge-sharing with the CIA. In Bryant’s view, global intelligence services operate less like isolated agencies and more like rival mafia families who, despite turf battles, often collaborate when interests align.
Here is the larger concern: The longer these questions go unanswered, the more they erode public trust in both our government and our alliances—particularly with Israel. At a time when calls for Palestinian statehood are gaining momentum in Western capitals, the possibility—real or imagined—of Israeli intelligence involvement in Epstein’s blackmail operation becomes more politically combustible.
Bryant warns that suppression of the truth, no matter what it is, is fueling speculation that Epstein’s reach into the global elite was aided by one or more intelligence services. The fact that many of the politicians most committed to keeping Epstein-related evidence under wraps are also among the strongest supporters of Israel only deepens public suspicion.
Wouldn’t it be better to confront the truth head-on—before the speculation hardens into permanent distrust?
Bryant is available to discuss:
- Why Epstein’s possible intelligence ties should concern both Republicans and Democrats
- How the suppression of information risks harming the U.S.-Israel relationship
- The intelligence “mafia family” model and how it explains possible CIA-Mossad overlap
- What unanswered questions remain—and how they could be resolved
In Bryant’s words: “The truth—whatever it is—needs to come out. The only thing worse than the truth is the suspicion that our leaders are too compromised to tell it.”
Nick Bryant is the author of The Franklin Scandal and a leading voice on elite sexual exploitation networks. He’s been featured on The Chris Hedges Report, The Shawn Ryan Show, and numerous investigative podcasts.

ABOUT NICK BRYANT…
Nick Bryant is an investigative journalist. He spent seven years investigating a child sex trafficking network that was covered up by state and federal authorities, culminating in The Franklin Scandal: A Story of Powerbrokers, Child Abuse, and Betrayal. The trafficking network I wrote about in The Franklin Scandal has been the focal point of considerable misinformation and/or disinformation on the Internet. Individuals who, perhaps, suffer from psychiatric disorders have woven the Illuminati and shape shifting reptilian ETs into the narrative.
But the book’s foremost transgressor has been Wikipedia. The “Franklin child prostitution ring allegations” Wikipedia page has been under siege by unscrupulous Wikipedia “editors,” and they’ve intentionally made it nonsensical.
The Franklin Scandal and the Epstein scandal are quite similar in the sense that both child trafficking networks were covered up by state and federal authorities and the mainstream media has been complicit, because it never demanded justice for the children whose lives had been disfigured. I started investigating the Epstein network in 2012, when I acquired his “Little Black Book”—seven years before the case broke nationally.
I pitched an article on the Little Black Book for three years to mainstream media outlets, but, like The Franklin Scandal, my pitches were met with unbridled skepticism and incredulity. In 2015, finally, Gawker published the Little Black Book and accompanying articles. I found it ironic that Gawker, considered to be the mean kids in the media, had the fortitude to publish a story about children whose lives have been disfigured with impunity, whereas media outlets ostensibly immersed in integrity had rejected the story.
His latest book, The Truth About Watergate: A Tale of Extraordinary Lies and Liars, details the false narrative that our history books have imparted about the infamous Watergate affair.
