Epstein told Ehud Barak to give Mandelson Israeli energy company role

Convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein instructed former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak to involve former British minister Lord Peter Mandelson in the sale of Israel's largest fuel company in 2013. Newly released files reveal Epstein emailed Mandelson stating, "I asked ehud to call you re paz in israel," referring to the Paz Oil Company. The company, which held 30 percent of the Israeli fuel market, was later listed by the United Nations for operating in illegal Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank. The correspondence highlights the connections between Epstein, Barak, and Mandelson regarding a strategic Israeli asset, even after Epstein's 2008 conviction.
