Governor Eliot Spitzer may have been trapped in an Israeli government sex operation

2008-03-14 09:27:38 - “The Mossad’s fingerprints are all over this one,” says Andy Martin. “The combination of international sex and money laundering are classic clues that Israeli intelligence was trolling for blackmail targets, offering protection in exchange for sexual dossiers.”

“THE MOSSAD’S FINGERPRINTS ARE ALL OVER THIS ONE,” SAYS ANDY MARTIN

INTERNATIONAL SEX, MONEY LAUNDERING ARE CLASSIC CLUES THAT ISRAELI INTELLIGENCE WAS TROLLING FOR BLACKMAIL TARGETS, OFFERING PROTECTION IN EXCHANGE FOR SEXUAL DOSSIERS

(CHICAGO)(March 14, 2008)(Exclusive) New York Governor Eliot Spitzer may have stumbled into a prostitution ring run under the auspices of the Israeli government, namely the Mossad, says Andy Martin.

“The Emperors Club was exclusively targeting prominent individuals,” ContrarianCommentary.com executive editor Andy Martin notes. “It is entirely possible that Spitzer was assured that his participation in the prostitution ring was protected precisely because it was run by an Israeli asset.

“Israel is the bane of U. S. federal authorities that combat money laundering. Tel Aviv is one of the money laundering capitals of the world. Mark Brener, who ran Emperors Club VIP, was an Israeli citizen; he was stockpiling two Israeli passports in his apartment. He also had $600,000 in cash on hand. Prosecutors appear to have moved in because the FBI was concerned Brener was about to make a drop in Israel. Published reports significantly understate the financial operations of this international prostitution operation.

“People don’t like to talk about it but sexual entrapment and fulfillment are some of the basic forms of espionage and blackmail. Straight and gay ‘partners,’ ‘rough stuff’ and more are all kept at the ready by the world’s major intelligence agencies. Mark Brener does not appear to have been a spy per se. He appears to have traded information for immunity and money laundering. But he could have been a low-level type of ‘sleeper cell,’ an asset that operated quietly and obviously without any official cover.

“The volume of electronic surveillance is a clear tip-off that the Department of Justice knew they were working with a ‘connected’ prostitution operation. Thousands of calls and e-mails were monitored in a brief period. No one monitoring that volume of traffic was focused only on Eliot Spitzer. The claim that the probe began with him is thus somewhat disingenuous; investigators were quickly casting a much wider net.

“Because the federal government did not want to be caught in an embarrassing Jonathan Pollard moment again, prosecutors asked that Brener be detained without bail. Although Israelis are barred from intelligence operations in the United States, they are addicted to surveillance and penetration inside our society and institutions. Illinoisans on the other hand are obsessed with the identity of ‘Client 10.’ Well. [See: http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/chi-0313edit1mar13,0,257499. ...]

“We don’t yet have the ‘smoking gun’ on this one but our sources within Israel confirm that we are on the right track. Sex for information for money for protection is a classic Mossad m.o. Brener was laundering the cash in Israel where large sums would not draw attention, particularly when deposited in government-influenced banks. This is a sensitive case.

“Significantly, the Spitzer sex sting has been handled very gingerly by Israeli media. The coverage is extremely subdued for news involving one of the highest elected Jewish officials in the United States, who was priming himself to be the first Jewish president,” says Martin. “It is almost as though they are aware of the submerged Israeli intelligence angle to the story, and are working to put some hard facts on the circumstantial evidence. We at ContrarianCommentary.com will also keep looking and keep digging. There is a lot more to this one.”
