Drop Site News: Epstein's DIRTY Business With UAE, Israel EXPOSED
A Drop Site News report reveals Jeffrey Epstein's pivotal role in connecting United Arab Emirates to Israel. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian discuss on The Young Turks.
- 17 minutes
Drop site news
has just dropped another banger.
And for any of the clip,
chimps out there who are going to clip
this out for social media, please,
please credit drop site
because they're doing incredible work that
no one else is willing to do, especially
as it pertains to the Epstein files.
[00:00:15]
Now, it turns out that Jeffrey Epstein
played a major role
in building a relationship
between the United Arab Emirates,
Israeli officials and American capital
like Jeffrey Epstein was so much more
than a disgusting pedophile.
[00:00:30]
It turns out that he was wheeling
and dealing with major global powers.
Jake, are you surprised?
No, I'm not, but as I have said before,
I was surprised originally
when drop site News started doing these
stories because it turns out Epstein
[00:00:46]
is not a peripheral character.
He is a central character in intelligence
agencies and their actions.
But this story gave me an indication
of which intelligence agency he works for
a lot more definitively than the others,
and wait till you find out why.
[00:01:03]
Some of the Arab nations actually don't
care about the Palestinians at all
and are secretly working with Israel.
- An amazing story and it tells the facts.
- It really is.
And I just want to note, I mean, every
media outlet has access to these files,
[00:01:19]
and it's telling
that none of the legacy media outlets
are reporting on any of this.
They'll report on the salacious stuff,
but they won't report on this.
So thank you to drop Site news.
Incredible reporting.
So this story revolves
around Epstein's relationship
[00:01:34]
with Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem.
Okay, so Sulayem is an important figure
because he is the head of something known
as, DP world, one of the world's biggest
container terminal operators.
So very important for trade,
international trade.
[00:01:52]
Furthermore, DP world controls
an important trading hub in Dubai
that's named Joshua.
Now, Joshua is the US Navy's
most frequently visited foreign port
and the United States.
[00:02:07]
You know, has more ships in UAE ports
than in any other port
outside of the United States.
So you kind of get a sense
of how critical and important, you know,
this port is, how important Joshua is.
And so Sulayem, also has ties
to the Emirati ruling families.
[00:02:26]
So Epstein happened to be close
friends with him,
very close friends with him going back
as far as at least 2006, at least we can
document it dating back to 2006.
And they were actually still friends
when Epstein died.
[00:02:42]
So, Epstein claimed that his relationship
with Saleh, sulayem was so close
that he basically or he was basically
in charge of this port,
this incredibly critical, important port.
Okay, so Epstein's dealings with this guy
helped build the partnership
[00:03:01]
between Israel and the UAE.
So how did that happen?
Well, that partnership, which was
developed over many years, was kept
under wraps until the Abraham Accords.
So a lot of people did suspect that there
was some sort of business dealings
happening between the UAE and Israel.
[00:03:19]
That kind of explained how sheepish
they were in terms of Israel's war crimes
or its treatment of Palestinians.
Then the Abraham Accords come out,
they become public.
And it kind of reinforced
those suspicions.
Suspicions, I'll put it that way.
So, as early as.
[00:03:37]
So throughout the mid 20 tens, Epstein
arranged meetings between Sulayem and
former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak.
Ehud Barak comes up in these stories
over and over and over again.
As early as 2013, Epstein and Ehud Barak
discussed the prospect of sulayem
[00:03:55]
investing into Israeli projects.
So those efforts bore fruit in 2018.
And that year, Sulayem told both Epstein
and Ehud Barak that he would invest
in something known as Carbyne,
which is an Israeli cybersecurity company
that Epstein funded, and Ehud
[00:04:15]
Barak was the head of as its chairman.
Epstein also connected Sulayem with,
the American capital on at least
one occasion, more than one occasion.
So one example.
In 2009, he got Sulayem a meeting with
[00:04:31]
then CEO of JPMorgan Chase, Jess Staley.
And, Sultan is laying the groundwork
for you to establish a serious presence,
Epstein advised. Staley on December 9th.
Epstein kept close tabs
as the meetings progressed,
[00:04:49]
writing the next day, having fun,
she replied, or I'm sorry, Staley replies.
Wild just saw the Crown Prince.
So we'll end with an interaction
dating back to 2017, when Sulayem
received an invitation to Donald Trump's
first presidential inauguration.
[00:05:07]
Quote.
Do you think it will be possible
to shake hand with Trump?
Sulayem wrote. Epstein replied.
Very many people going.
It will be very crowded,
but if you can meet some before or after
in either Washington or New York,
it might be worth it, but unlikely.
[00:05:27]
So I'm going to stop here for comment
because it's just amazing.
I mean, look, Epstein was working hard
to bring people together.
- Jake, what was wrong with that?
- Yeah.
So there's two components to this story.
We're three, actually.
One is, Oh, my God, I had no idea
what was happening in the UAE.
[00:05:45]
And UAE turns out to be central
in all of this, these stories.
Number two is, about Epstein himself
and how central he was to all of those.
And I'll get back to number three.
So first let's talk about UAE.
[00:06:01]
So it's formed actually
relatively recently.
Remember after World War One
and World War Two,
a lot of these countries were formed.
It's like seven emirates
that they put together.
And it turns out they think
even a Pakistani banker might have been
a critical in putting it together.
And of course, Epstein knew him as well.
[00:06:18]
So, and you see a lot of the most
illicit characters in the world,
going through that port in the UAE.
And why? Because they made it a free zone.
So nothing got checked through customs
since it was a very rare place on Earth
[00:06:35]
where nothing got checked through customs
and could go in from one country
and go to another country.
It became a hub for,
peddling, blood diamonds.
And Epstein has a lot of diamonds
and brags about it all the time.
[00:06:50]
Drugs, guns and every kind
of illicit activity you can imagine.
And it's all being done through this port
that, as Anna just read to you,
Epstein bragged.
He basically runs himself in the UAE.
Now they're telling us that Jeffrey
Epstein is just a regular old civilian
[00:07:10]
who happens to know
the most powerful people on Earth
and runs one of the most illicit ports,
along with the slam character in the UAE.
There's no civilian that does that.
Are you kidding me?
What kind of a joke is this?
That's why what Anna said
in the beginning is so relevant.
[00:07:27]
So all of the media in America actually
know this story because they're following
the drop side stories and they're all
going, we're not going to cover it, right?
Nope, nope.
The most important revelations
about how the world actually works.
Don't forget Noble mobile
saving you a ton of money.
So a lot of people are signing up now and
beginning to realize what the hell, why am
[00:07:45]
I paying so much to Verizon and AT&T?
So your bills only $50 a month, but it
can actually be less because they give
you money back if you don't use your data.
So if you're paying more than $50,
there's no reason to not switch.
It's crazy not to switch because
same phone, same number, same contacts.
[00:08:00]
Literally nothing changes. Titcomb.
Titcomb.
All right. We'll be right back.
No, no, no, don't. Shush, shush.
In fact, let's try to figure out
how to bury that news.
Are you guys in news at all?
So, guys, the reason why it becomes
so central is so many of the scams
[00:08:16]
you've heard about.
I don't know if you heard about this Joe
Lagi in Malaysia who stole billions
from the Malaysian government
that was connected to Epstein in the UAE.
And you see, maybe that Pakistani banker
might have gotten a piece of the action.
Other people get a piece of the action
and it runs through the UAE.
[00:08:32]
So then when UAE then takes some
of its money and invest into
carbine Israeli security company.
So they're now totally in bed with Israel
by the time the Abraham Accords come out.
What you're seeing in American news is,
oh, what a great breakthrough by Donald
[00:08:47]
Trump taking these two enemies and
bringing them together finally know they
were working together the entire time.
And there's Mossad former director that's
involved in this, and he's in Angola,
where the diamonds are coming from.
They've got guys
on both sides of the conflict.
[00:09:03]
They're getting the money.
The all that flowing in.
And FC is a huge part of it.
And there's a bank called BCCI.
They later shut down
in the midst of tons of controversies.
Also set up with by these same guys to run
all of these illegal activities through.
[00:09:19]
So meanwhile, Anna, as I'm reading
all of this, I'm trying to figure out.
Yes, but who does Epstein work for,
if anyone?
Right.
And before, when I saw him
in the middle of the Iran-Contra affair.
That's another drop site news, I thought.
Well, it looked like his contacts
were mainly with the Israelis.
[00:09:36]
But, you know, obviously America,
CIA was central to the Iran-Contra affair.
They're the ones who ran it.
Israeli intelligence
also involved in Iran-Contra.
So that's why. Okay.
Could be either,
but I thought maybe leaning.
Towards the CIA? Nope.
Every single email
is about how he can help Israel.
[00:09:55]
Israel. Israel.
Israel. Right.
And everything in America
is such tangential to.
It is helpful
to the cause of helping Israel.
So my assessment and and we'll get
there's so much more interesting details
that we're going
to get to in a second here too.
But is that that basically
that Epstein was part of either officially
[00:10:15]
or a deep state within Israel
that ran all of these illicit activities
all throughout the world?
The CIA was perfectly aware of it
and didn't mind it.
And that's why they never
did anything about Epstein.
And that's why Epstein was allowed
to run all these criminal operations
[00:10:31]
basically unimpeded in America.
Well, first, let me just note that
the entirety of the Epstein files have yet
to be released, and it does look like the
Trump administration is trying to skirt,
that responsibility because remember,
Congress voted to have the administration
[00:10:49]
release the Epstein file.
So I only bring that up because we don't
know the we don't see the whole picture.
And that's very much on purpose.
So, you know, everything we've seen so far
seems to tie Epstein to, you know,
[00:11:05]
Israeli intelligence for sure.
Maybe the forthcoming Epstein files,
if we ever get them, will show that he
worked with other intelligence agencies.
- I don't know.
- But so that's the part.
And I just want to say they're
never going to release that.
So you think the CIA is going to be like,
oh, yeah, sure.
[00:11:21]
Here we work with Mossad
to rape American children.
And we did it through Epstein,
who was funneling illegal cash through all
of our banks and had gotten it from,
like, illicit diamonds and sex trade
and running guns, by the way,
also partly for the CIA.
[00:11:37]
They're never, ever,
ever going to admit that.
So let's realize what actually happened.
And one last quick thing
before you go to the stuff you got, Anna.
So that's why to complete the thought,
the Abraham Accords, by the time they
did that, they were already working.
Israel and UAE were,
and the intelligence agencies were
[00:11:55]
already working so closely together.
The UAE's internal security
is from Israel.
So. Oh come on,
they are totally intertwined.
And at one point, a Liberian official
that they were opposed to winds
up in a sex scandal and has to step down.
[00:12:11]
Now, I don't know that it's connected,
but I thought, well,
that's awfully convenient.
And so they had their hands in almost
everything going on in the world.
That's right.
I want to get to some of the weird,
salacious stuff which could maybe have
been used by Epstein for blackmail.
[00:12:27]
Or maybe they just like
to do stuff together.
So let me get to those details,
because, sulayem.
And Epstein weren't just,
you know, business partners.
They were very good friends
and did go on vacations together.
[00:12:43]
And look, we don't know for sure
what transpired on those vacations,
but, all we can do is show you what
Sulayem and Epstein message to each other.
Okay.
So Epstein wrote to him
after one enjoyable excursion together
in March of 2007.
[00:12:59]
Quote. Hope you had fun.
I am glad to have you as my friend.
You are the only person I have met
who is as crazy as me.
After Epstein's death,
the Miami Herald discovered that Epstein's
neighboring island, Great Saint James,
had been purchased in Suleiman's.
[00:13:19]
I know I'm mispronouncing his name,
and I apologize for that.
In his name in 2016. And there's more.
In November of that year, 2007,
a few months after his indictment
in Florida on sex abuse charges,
Epstein mentioned to Sulayem, hearing
[00:13:36]
a funny story from a woman they both knew.
Sulayem replied yes.
After several attempts for several months
we managed to meet in New York.
There's a misunderstanding.
She wanted some business,
while I only wanted some, you know.
[00:13:52]
I think you can fill in the blank,
Epstein replied.
Praise Allah.
There are still people like you.
Unfortunately, there are plenty of people.
Plenty of people like that.
But yeah.
Anyway. Thoughts?
Thoughts? Yeah.
No, no. Real quick, last two things here.
[00:14:08]
So Epstein bragged that he had made
his money from arms, drugs and diamonds.
And some people thought he was being,
like, showing off in Palm Beach, etc..
No, it turns out, not at all.
Now, through the series
of drop site news stories,
these are leaked emails, by the way,
part of the reason Barack shows up so much
as the former Israeli prime minister
[00:14:27]
in these emails is
because the they tapped into his emails.
And so how did they get Epstein's emails?
Well, Epstein is talking
to the Israelis nonstop, nonstop,
constantly arranging meetings
for Ehud Barak and Vladimir Putin and with
[00:14:42]
the UAE guys and coordinating everything.
There is no civilian
that coordinates illegal activities
of Israel, America, Nicaragua?
Uae? Angola?
No, there's a guy who works
for intelligence agencies, obviously.
[00:15:02]
So look, guys, I wouldn't
even have to be frustrated about it
if our press did its job.
But our press's job
is not to uncover the news.
It's to cover up the news.
So, for example, in America,
you'll hear about a lot of countries
and cities in the Middle East.
And generally they're viewed
like presented by American media
[00:15:20]
in a very negative light,
like, oh, the Muslims and Iran
and terrorist Hamas and oh my god, Qatar.
Qatar and all this stuff. Right?
But the one place that's golden and never
gets any bad press is the UAE and Dubai.
[00:15:35]
You hear about Dubai all the time.
Oh, Dubai.
Everybody's in Dubai. Dubai is great.
Dubai.
Because that's because
they're working with the Israelis.
That's why.
So. And they they totally
betrayed the Palestinians.
Threw them under the bus.
Don't care at all.
They're like, how do we make more money?
[00:15:51]
And Israelis want to, you know,
run our cyber security,
meaning they pretty much run the country.
I mean, if you let the Israelis
run your cyber security,
you're basically I mean, it's like one
giant pager that runs the country.
So, so they're they've been
in bed with them the entire time.
[00:16:09]
But meanwhile, our media is like,
well, Dubai is the one lovely place.
And Abraham Accords. That's amazing.
They did peace all UAE. So great.
Israel's so great and everyone else
around them is the bad guys know
it's the exact opposite of the truth.
[00:16:24]
Isn't that amazing?
They've been lying to you your whole life.
It's just like the Wizard of Oz.
What you thought was true
is the exact opposite of the truth.
Why?
Because of the person with the microphone.
The person with the microphone
makes the biggest difference.
[00:16:40]
So yes, I after seeing all these stories,
it's the most obvious thing in the world
that Jeffrey Epstein
was intelligence for Israel.
No question about it.
And yes, it appears the CIA knew
if they didn't know that Epstein
[00:16:55]
was Israeli intelligence and he was
running all these illegal operations,
including with the CIA in Iran-Contra,
then the CIA is the most incompetent
organization in the history of the world.
So, yes, our government is also guilty.
They've been covering up for all of
Epstein's crimes because they're complicit
[00:17:10]
in Epstein's crimes.
And of course,
the most important thing in America
is Israel shall never be besmirched.
So if this shows that Israel
is the one running that operation,
well, then everybody cover it up.
And that's what's been happening
until drop site news.
[00:17:27]
Got these emails.
Every time you ring the bell below,
an angel gets its wings.
Totally not true.
But it does keep you updated
on our live shows.
