    The story is less about conservatives being pedophiles, and more about the absolute rule Israel has over us, even when there is no national security angle such as covering up Mossad involvement in 9/11. Epstein as a Mossad agent offering supermodel orgy invitations, requires hushing up any accumulated dirt, because releasing the dirt “for free” means that Israel loses blackmail power over pressuring affected individuals.

    Just accept the fact that being a conservative means being OK with fucking children.

    Republicans, Taliban, Orthodox Jews who like suckling on baby foreskin.

    If you are even slightly right wing, you already are predisposed to pedophilia.

    So QAnon is right about there being a global ring of pedophiles.

    Too bad they’re too dumb to realize that it’s the pedophiles running QAnon.

      print media is always the exception since it’s the part of legacy media with a smallest audience (besides radio) to give legacy media the pass it needs to maintain enough legitimacy while helping dispel the reality that it’s fully captured.

      primetime network tv is the real measure and colbert’s late night time slot is already too large of an audience for the ruling class; that’s why he is losing his platform.

      the fact that this news story is nowhere near primetime network tv at the same time the epstein scandal is in the forefront of our collective attention is a clear sign given that the relevance would undoubtedly pump viewership raitings and lead to greater profit, but they’ve decided not to pursue that profit in the interest of class solidarity.

        Because pedophilia is a condition, not a crime. They name the actual crime someone is being investigated for.

        “Back in Israel” is Ynet’s wording and the article is clear that it is reporting that. The Guardian’s own wording is consistently “released and returned to Israel”, which seems better than “fled” since it does not imply a lack of culpability of those releasing him

        Hell the Ynet headline in your post doesn’t say anything about what Alexandrovich was questioned over

          “Released and returned” is just a description of what happened, but “fled” implies guilt. It’s certainly not a neutral word.

            I’m not saying “fled” is neutral, I’m saying it implies things that do not appear to be true based on what information is available. “Fled” implies that Alexandrovich returned to Israel against the will/efforts of American law enforcement, not that he was literally just let go (as appears to have happened)

              He was released on bail which means that he’d have to return for his court case. I doubt he’s coming back.

              The reason I couldn’t even find the guardian article is because the term ‘Israeli arrested pedophelia’ returned nothing except the Israeli articles. TheGuardian is deliberately avoiding words and replacing them with vague terms.

              Yeah, that’s certainly another way to interpret it - “fled” also makes the US appear to be incompetent, rather than complicit.

      Almost certainly not. It doesn’t sound like he was here on a diplomatic mission, so it wouldn’t apply.

      Edit: Yes, he is just going back to Israel though. Thought I’d clear that up. Out on bail, probably never to return for his case. He doesn’t have diplomatic immunity. He was just let go with no punishment or reason.

    Reminds me of some questions about whether Epstein was involved with the state of Israel. We now know that Israel was blackmailing Bill Clinton.

      While Epstein was under investigation he hid out in Israel, moving large sums of money back and from the US to Israel. His plan was to just, not come back to the US if there was a deal on the table he didn’t like.

      Israel is a safe haven to thousands of pedophiles seeking protection from prosecution. They 100% knew what was going on.

      I’d bet my whole nut on Mossad having access to a copy or the original files themselves, and they need that list still to pull the levers they want. So that’s why everyone since Trump 1 has been so terrified to touch it.

      But Trump can’t even release doctored copies because then if Israel ever needs to use them, there would be discrepancies. Basically poisoning the entire thing as a bargaining chip.

    WHY would the US Arrest PEDOPHILES when the President and his Supporters LOVE Jeffrey Epstein?
