It is unlikely that the hit was made by Russia because as the British State claims, Russia tends to prefer poisoning with polonium in a cup of tea, or spraying door knobs with exotic nerve agents of the Novichock type. The British do not believe that a straight walk-up shot with a silencer is Russian modus operandi...
; D
Ergo, it must have been the Brits ensuring that dead men tell no tales..
Consider: the US/West, going through a kind of “Apocalypse Now,” period, is not yet ready for “revealing” how the cake was made while we were all encouraged to live out our own fantasy lives. So we do easy political targets that are expendable, say Comey/Brennan et al. A big “revealing” party would lead to…conflict/civil war? And this would make some very happy.
We should all realize how the modern/post modern world worked, but we have been in denial. So be careful what you wish for…;)
Re: Epstein. It is sad that over the last few years it seems no matter how bad you imagine things might be that imagination ends up becoming the reality when more becomes known. Worst case now is all of our leaders and institutions in the West are comprised of "Pizza-gate" criminal deviants, corrupted and compromised and protected; and this corruption and protection is integral to maintaining the current governing systems. This "theory" is not far-fetched, as I have seen quite a few people writing around the edges of it or directly to it while citing evidence. Trump may or may not be directly implicated but he certainly understands the implications on the ruling structures of unearthing all the evidence.
We had hope in Trump as an outsider to correct the system. Whatever the underlying reality is, that hope is now gone. Now the question becomes how can we excise the evil from the system when we have no agents inside of it? It seems there is no way to do that other than the system being destroyed from the outside or else imploding under the weight of its own hollowness and corruption.
Beautifully stated, Dissonant; your phrase "this corruption and protection is integral to maintaining the current governings systems" translates to my mind as mafia rule.
Yeah, Slovenia! An incredibly beautiful country with wonderful people who know what corruption is and don't want any part of it. I will now get out the popcorn and watch how the EU explains running a color revolution against one of its own national leaders because he is "anti-Democratic" for promoting a Democratic referendum on NATO membership. Well, we shall see.
The Epstein debauchery island never really made sense to me, people with super yachts aren’t reliant on Mossad to facilitate indulgences. (I personally know a minder who worked in Saudi Arabia who witnessed such shenanigans)
Seems more likely he was a point man for running a spy ring and financial machinations.
I guess he’s drinking pina coladas in the Caribbean somewhere.
I don’t doubt for a minute that Trump was allowed to win the presidency by these monsters, on condition, as Mark has already alluded to, that Epstein stays buried forever. The soft-spoken Giraldi was scathing: no “ifs.” So now our (?) government, sullied, bullied and blackmailed, can only stand by and wait for their maniacal masters - in Tel Aviv and in DC - to usher in armageddon by sending a nuclear weapon to Iran.
The Epstein lies are enormous lies, not just run-of-the-mill standard DC prevarication. Why now? Why play this card at this time? The underlying motivation has to be just as enormous. Bondi, Patel, and Bongino have all thrown away any credibility they may have had, and for what? What justifies that level of personal degradation?
Methinks Netanyahu is pushing hard for a limited nuclear attack on Iran. That is likely his only card to play because without a knockout blow on the Iranian regime, the counterattack response will effectively kill Israel as a nation. But going nuclear is a real game-changer. Russia and China would be forced to step up. No more standing on the sidelines. And that means taking on the Deep State in an existential battle to the death. If so, things could get very ugly very fast.
TomA please enlighten yourself on Putinyahus Rusreal, The Kremlin will do nothing against Isreal, check Putins speeches after Isreal struck Iran. At no time did they condemn them but asked for peace in "the war" and for continued IAEA inspections and that Iran should not acquire the bomb. Also he said they were willing to take Irans processed uranium for storage.
He also spoke of concern of the Russian speaking population in Isreal but not once commented or showed concern for the civilian casualties in Iran.
Is there an Epstein files equivalent in Russia, no I only jest.
Think Syria and Russia's actions there, they attacked IRGC allied troops for Isreal and never allowed Assad to use air defences against Isreali strikes.
The Kremlin is made to seem like a saint in the altmedia but it is not what is portrayed as I assure you.
I don't believe a "limited nuclear attack" would, in fact, be a "knockout blow"--not in the sense that it would stop an effective response that would "kill Israel as a nation".
Agreed, nothing is a 100% sure thing in warfare. Nevertheless, desperate people often do desperate things despite the odds. And I don't think Trump would go along with it, but the simple act of pushing this on DC under threat of exposing the Epstein videos will have an immense impact on upcoming geopolitical decisions. Bibi is sending a powerful message enforced by the cudgel of blackmail.
Correct, unfortunately. If I were Netanyahu, I'd be under enormous pressure to take on Iran again. And, as you say, his only chance is some kind of limited nuke. All the cards he played in Round 1 won't work a second time. And again, yes, this IS an existential battle to the death with the DS. As we've seen with the Epstein debacle, the last hopes of internal reform or revolution have gone. Outside forces are going to have to do the heavy lifting.
Let's hope the same thing happens if certain European nations try and reinstitute conscription in order to protect Blackrock's investments (sorry, Democracy!) in Ukraine.

Well said.
Isn’t this really true of many post-socialist governments? Elites are “desperate not to “damage Slovenia’s reputation” among their Western handlers”.

As Scott Adams puts it:

Thank you, Joanne. I agree with you.
Your last sentence sums up perfectly the remaining options.
Yeah, Slovenia! An incredibly beautiful country with wonderful people who know what corruption is and don't want any part of it.

The Epstein coverup seems to be experiencing a Streisand Effect.
May it be so.
Ah? I hope you’re right Ray!

We sense that, but it all depends on what the crazies in Tel Aviv and DC believe. And we know how fact-resistant they are!

Agreed about the domestic stuff. Trump probably has little input - hence the efficient way in which it is being handled.
I hope it was a Uke who shot the colonel. Maybe it's time.
I've heard that the SBU and recruiting officers over there are less than popular.
I'd like to think I would have already shot a few, after seeing the press gangs in operation. Lots of chaos in a place like that.
Let's hope the same thing happens if certain European nations try and reinstitute conscription in order to protect Blackrock's investments (sorry, Democracy!) in Ukraine.
The hit on the SBU colonel is interesting. I hope the spooks in MI6 and the CIA are taking note. "Dirty tricks" may now be a two-way process.
