The notorious American billionaire and sex offender, Jeffrey Epstein, has once again become embroiled in a fresh controversy. Recent FBI documents surfaced, alleging that Epstein was purportedly trained as a "spy" under former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has outright dismissed these claims, stating there is no evidence of Epstein working for Israel.
This document is said to be part of an FBI Confidential Human Source report. It supposedly included intelligence related to foreign influence on the American electoral process, while also sharing several other claims related to Epstein. According to the report, the source noted conversations between Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz and Epstein, asserting that information from these discussions reached Israel’s intelligence agency, Mossad.
The report further suggests that based on overheard conversations, the perception emerged that Epstein might be a "collaborative agent" for Mossad. Allegedly, it also mentioned Epstein's connections with intelligence agencies of the U.S. and allied countries. Yet, these claims remain based on a single source and lack independent verification.

also includes other contentious allegations. It claims ties between Harvard Law Professor Dershowitz and Mossad, accusations of technology appropriation by a Silicon Valley venture firm, and mentions deep ties between Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner’s family and Israel. Publicly released concrete evidence of these allegations remains absent.

On the other hand, discussions about the ties between Epstein and Ehud Barak have been ongoing for some time. The two maintained contact for an extended period, with Barak acknowledging multiple meetings with Epstein though denying any wrongdoing.

What PM Netanyahu Said About Epstein
Reacting to the subject, Netanyahu stated that a close relationship between Epstein and Barak does not imply that Epstein worked for Israel. He launched a political attack on Barak, accusing him of long attempts to undermine his government.
Overall, the claim of Epstein being touted as a spy remains restricted to an intelligence source report. There is no independent confirmation, and the Israeli government has dismissed this claim. Consequently, the matter seems tangled in allegations and counterclaims for now.
