A compelling and provocative exchange from a recent episode of The Diary of a CEO podcast with host Steven Bartlett and guest Gavin de Becker, a renowned security expert, violence prevention specialist, and advisor to high-profile figures (including past work protecting figures like Jeff Bezos and various world leaders).
In the following clip, de Becker asserts that Jeffrey Epstein functioned as an intelligence asset for a U.S. ally—specifically naming Israel—and claims there is “direct evidence” supporting this, though he says he’s not sharing it in that moment, adding he could discuss it for 40 minutes.
This aligns with long-standing speculation and claims in some intelligence and investigative circles that Epstein’s operations (involving blackmail, elite access, and unexplained wealth) had ties to foreign intelligence, particularly Israel’s Mossad, often linked through Ghislaine Maxwell’s father, Robert Maxwell (a reported Mossad-connected figure).
Similar views have appeared in other interviews on the same podcast, like one with ex-CIA officer John Kiriakou expressing confidence Epstein worked for the Israelis using extortion tactics.
De Becker describes Epstein not as a lone financier/sex offender but as a deliberate “construct” (implying an engineered operation for leverage or kompromat).
No official U.S. or Israeli government confirmation exists for such claims, and mainstream reporting often treats them as unproven allegations or conspiracy theories, though court documents, Epstein’s plea deals (with unnamed co-conspirators), and released files continue fueling debate.
The full episode dives into surveillance tools like Pegasus spyware, privacy erosion, intuition/”gift of fear,” and elite protection—making this Epstein segment particularly explosive.

Oh c'mon people.
It's so obvious that it's laughable that he was NOT working for intelligence services.
And we're "debating" it. Good lord, after everything we know about the leaders of the western world, and we doubt that someone thought of corrupting powerful people and recording it for leverage???
