The wide array of people on the Jeffrey Epstein client list seems bizarre. They were people not just from politics, but from academia, science, tech, music, Wall Street, and Hollywood. Seemingly anyone famous--anyone with power and influence in America--was targeted. That is the key: power and influence. That is what they were after. ("They" being Israel's deep state.) They targeted any and all people with power and influence in all fields and at various levels of power in America, from those starting out to those at the top, including the president of the most powerful nation state in the world (Bill Clinton).
They would want a president like Clinton for his political power, a billionaire like Les Wexner for his money, a Hollywood star like Kevin Spacey for his influence. They would entrap those people by filming them having sex with underage children (or other illegal activity), then blackmail them with the evidence, saying, "You'll do what we (Israel) want or we'll destroy you by releasing the tapes."
They would target people early in their careers, when they are easier to seduce and less wary of potential scams. Then they'd help boost their clients’ careers so they attain more money, power, and influence. It's like a diversified stock portfolio: they "invest" (blackmail) many different potentially powerful people, some of whom never amount to anything. But for those that succeed, they can drop the blackmail and gain control over their money, power, and influence.
That is what the Epstein operation was all about: money, power, and influence over American politics. The money helps fund the entire blackmail operation, including "investments" in new clients. The power assures political policies to benefit Israel. The influence creates propaganda to manufacture public favor toward Israel.
The Israeli deep state still has plenty of money and power, but they are losing their influence. Many are seeing through the propaganda or are diametrically opposed to it. This is causing them to take greater measures, which is in turn waking more and more up to the entire operation.
It may seem far-fetched and conspiratorial to think Israel would go to such extreme measures just to influence American politics. But Israel accurately views US support as essential to their survival as a nation. Therefore, in their minds, it is justified to take extreme measures to ensure the continued support of the US government. This might include bribes, sexual blackmail, and even assassinating influential American figures who cannot be coerced via bribery or blackmail. Such abhorrently evil activity is justified in their minds “for the greater good” (of Israel). They are preemptive counter-measures to an existential threat (to Israel).
However, the more overt the Israeli deep state becomes in these American influence measures, the more American people will wake up to what they are doing, the less American people will support Israel. They are playing a losing game. What can’t go on forever won’t go on much longer.
