Epstein Cabal of Perverse People

Taking Down Keir Starmer and Misogyny

🧨 🧨 🧨

UAE perversity, misogyny and Jeffrey Epstein ... both close allied to the Jewish State of Israel ... seem to have particular interest in intelligence sharing, sex and tools like Pegasus to trace persons across the globe. Share hatred for social-democracy of Western Europe or "Old Europe" in speaking terms of war criminal Donald Rumsfeld.

Jeffrey Epstein and Steve Bannon Attack on Angela Merkel

Merkel was mentioned particularly frequently in correspondence with Steve Bannon, the far-right former advisor to US President Donald Trump . According to his own statements, Bannon worked to weaken her and other European politicians by supporting right-wing populist parties.

[...]
However, the former chancellor also appears in an email from an Arab businessman Sultan bin Sulayem.

Attached is a photo that was redacted by the US Department of Justice before publication. The original image shows three naked women by a lake. One of the women bears a resemblance to Angela Merkel. This is likely why the photo circulated online years ago and was picked up by, among others, Russian websites. There is no evidence that the photo actually shows Merkel.


Sultan bin Sulayem - DP World and Shipping Security in Dubai

The Dubai Ports World Debacle and its Aftermath | Harvard - Sept. 2006 |

Describes the political ramifications in the United States of Dubai-based DP World's acquisition of London-based Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company (P&O). Because P&O operated some port terminals in the United States, DP World obtained clearance from the Committee on Foreign Investments in the United States before P&O shareholders approved the deal in February 2006.

Nonetheless, a ruckus over port security erupted both in Congress and in the press and this ruckus led DP World to promise that it would relinquish the U.S. terminals of P&O. Also contains a brief description of Dubai and its relationship to the U.S., a discussion of issues related to port security, and a brief history of U.S. security concerns with foreign direct investment. Ends with a depiction of the Bills passed unanimously by the U.S. House and Senate to further regulate foreign investment in the wake of the DP World debacle.

One of Dubai's Most Powerful Executives Discussed Sex, Business With Epstein | Bloomberg |

Emails show Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem corresponded with the disgraced financier for more than a decade after Epstein was first jailed in 2008 for procuring a minor for prostitution

Among the elite businessmen and politicians who carried on friendly, crude and sometimes disturbing correspondence with disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein, few kept up their exchanges as long as Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem.
The chairman and chief executive officer of logistics giant DP World -- one of Dubai's most powerful executives -- swapped messages with the convicted pedophile before and for more than a decade after Epstein's jail sentence in 2008 on charges that included procuring a minor for prostitution.

As shown in emails released by the US Department of Justice last month and others obtained by Bloomberg News last summer, bin Sulayem sent Epstein remarkably intimate and unguarded messages. "She got engaged but now she back with me," bin Sulayem wrote to Epstein in one September 2015 message about a foreign exchange student at a university in Dubai. "The best sex I ever had amazing body."

Power 100 - Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem | Arabian Business - March 2009 |

The chairman of Dubai World, Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem is recognised as one of Dubai's leading business figures.

A graduate from Temple University, Philadelphia, Bin Sulayem has powered Dubai World's rapid expansion. Under his stewardship, DP World has become the fourth largest port operator in the world, while the Jebel Ali Free Zone (Jafza) is now an unrivalled business park with a global arm, Jafza International.

Bin Sulayem also established Nakheel, currently one of the biggest master developers in the world and the creator of icons such as The Palm and The World. He founded the investment house Istithmar, and the Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC), a regional centre of excellence in the commodities business, alongside the real estate developer Limitless.

A board member of Dubai Government's Executive Council, Bin Sulayem has won several regional and international titles. In October 2008 the UK-based Middlesex University awarded him an honorary doctorate in recognition of his contribution to the economic development of the UAE and the Arab World. He was also chosen as a `Global Leader for Tomorrow' by the World Economic Forum.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor arrested | Sky Video News |

Vehicles reported to be unmarked police cars were seen this morning at Sandringham in Norfolk, where Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has been living since leaving Windsor.

How long can police hold Andrew for?

Our colleagues at BBC Radio 5 Live have been speaking to Danny Shaw, a policing commentator, about what Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's arrest actually involves.

Shaw says the absolute longest the former prince can be held for is 96 hours - but this would require multiple extensions from senior police officers and a Magistrate's Court.

In most cases suspects are held for 12 or 24 hours and are then either charged or released pending further investigation, Shaw says.

Andrew will be placed in "a cell in a custody suite" with just "a bed and a toilet", where he will wait until his police interview. Shaw says "there'll be no special treatment for him".
