Naftali Bennett, the former Israeli Prime Minister, strongly denied conspiracy theories circulated by Tucker Carlson and others, claiming that the infamous criminal Jeffrey Epstein had connections with Mossad.

Bennett condemned the “malicious wave of slander and lies against” Israel, emphasizing his absolute certainty that the esteemed spy agency did not collaborate with Epstein in any blackmail operations.

“As someone who served as Israeli Prime Minister, with the Mossad reporting directly to me, I assert with 100% certainty: The claim that Jeffrey Epstein somehow collaborated with Israel or the Mossad in running a blackmail ring is entirely and utterly false,” Bennett stated on X Monday.

The convicted sex offender, who was found dead in his prison cell back in 2019, has been subject to renewed speculation due to a MAGA world revolt against the Trump administration over an FBI and Justice Department memo that concluded he committed suicide and didn’t have a client list.

Last Friday, Carlson made waves at the Turning Point USA summit in Tampa Bay for alleging — without evidence — that Epstein worked with Israeli intelligence services.

“I think the real answer is Jeffrey Epstein was working on behalf of intel services, probably not American. And we have every right to ask, on whose behalf was he working?” Carlson mused.

“Now, no one’s allowed to say that the foreign government is Israel because we have been somehow cowed into thinking that’s naughty. There is nothing wrong with saying that,” he added.
