Relevance to Claims
- CLAIM-013-epstein-intel-networks: SIGNIFICANTLY STRENGTHENED. The pattern of consequences — firing the AG who wasn’t pursuing arrests, international arrests but zero US arrests, resignation of the WEF head — strongly suggests systematic protection of powerful figures in the US. The FBI Mossad memo combined with the firing of the AG responsible for prosecution creates a pattern consistent with Jiang’s thesis about intel-agency protected networks. The fact that UK acts while the US doesn’t is particularly notable.
