Common stealth games
Half a million children are abused in the UK every year, last year’s National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC) reported. That’s an average of 62 cases a day. Never mind that though. Bend a knee for the new king in silk sashes on the gilded throne, whose trusted advisers liked to rape underage boys in uniform, sick children and corpses.
Two of Charles III’s key role models were prolific child sex offenders. Both Jimmy Savile and his friend, Charles’ great uncle Louis Mountbatten are deceased, but their respective and linked legacies of organised crime are emblematic of the ever-entitled British Empire, whose survival is owed largely to its supreme penchant for guiltless covert exploitation of children and other vulnerable, disempowered groups.
Let’s have a closer look at the persisting powerful paedophile rings that belie the foundations of the Royal Family, with respect to the fact that information has been strategically silenced, scattered, muddied and manipulated. We all know about Andrew, but they predate him. It’s very convenient to focus on a specific example, but proliferation is part of the problem. He is enabled, supported and protected by an established system that he inherited.
Trying to understand the global narrative of child sexual abuse is like trying to untangle the pyramid scheme that its co-conspirators have designed. Child victims are left chasing the parts of their souls that were taken from them and hidden in places far beyond the reach of their conscious capacity. Bystanders are equally groomed through the operant conditions of reward and punishment to buy in to the playbook. Adhere to the status quo of the commonwealth realms and you might just be awarded a knighthood. Betray your masters and you could wind up sleeping with the fishes.
Loose lips sink ships
Louis Mountbatten was a member of the British Royal Navy, like his great nephew Andrew Windsor. In 1979, Mountbatten was blown up aboard his fishing boat off the Irish coast of Mullaghmore after the IRA allegedly detonated a radio-activated bomb, but more about that later.
One of the 20th Century’s biggest frauds was Ghislaine Maxwell’s father. Rupert Murdoch’s former arch nemesis, Robert Maxwell was a multinational media mogul, decorated British Military World War II soldier, one-time Labour MP, and MI6, Mossad and Soviet informant who owed ₤763,000,000 in debt at the time his body was found at the bottom of the ocean between the Canary isles of Tenerife and Gran Canaria, adrift from his super-yacht Lady Ghislaine on 5 November 1991. After one botched autopsy by an inexperienced team of Spanish pathologists and a second performed at the Institute of Forensic Medicine in Tel Aviv, the cause of death was ruled to be a heart attack, although many believe he was murdered because his dubious finances had rendered him a hazard in intelligence circles. The same has been said of Jeffrey E. Epstein. In both cases, a contributing factor to their demise was not so much the grandiosity or recklessness of their illegal activities, but their tendency to boast about them.
In John Preston’s 2021 biography Fall: The Mystery of Robert Maxwell, the author writes that Maxwell’s wife Betty, his children, and colleague then Mirror reporter John Jackson, joined the crew aboard Lady Ghislaine following the discovery of Maxwell’s corpse. Before Ghislaine departed, John Jackson overheard her instructing the crew to do something immediately: “shred everything on this boat!”
Shortly after Robert Maxwell’s death, Ghislaine Maxwell began dating financier Jeffrey E. Epstein. In his November 2019 interview with BBC Newsnight, Andrew Windsor claims to have met Epstein back in 1999 through Ghislaine. Andrew became friends with Ghislaine while she was studying at Oxford in the early 1980s during his time in the Royal Navy. Over the course of their friendship Ghislaine was often a guest at Windsor Palace, once making four trips in and out in one day according to staff. Reported appearances of Andrew with Maxwell and Epstein reached a fever pitch during the period of 2000 into early 2001, leading up to one of the western world’s most publicised tragedies.
Bad blood ties
English investigative political reporter Vicky Ward has followed the mysterious dealings of Jeffrey Epstein since before he was a household name. In 2002, she travelled to Federal Medical Center in Massachusetts to interview one of Epstein’s former business partners, the late Steven Hoffenberg of Towers Financial, who was serving an 18-year prison sentence for a US$450 million pyramid scheme. Hoffenberg claims it was Epstein who orchestrated the scheme when the pair worked together in the late 1980s.
Hoffenberg explained Epstein’s illegal business model, which Epstein called, “playing the box”, speaking from lived experience as a victim of Epstein’s “perfect grift”. He had been so enamoured of Epstein when they worked together that he had paid his office space rent, not knowing at the time that Epstein was colluding with criminal prosecutors to frame him for their Ponzi scheme. The basis of Epstein’s scam was to gather incriminating information on his associates to cover himself in a blanket of blackmail while embezzling enormous funds and moving them offshore. Even if he got caught, Epstein’s two-factor insurance policy guaranteed that his victims could not locate their missing assets and that their reputation would be compromised if they tried.
