Q Research General #29580: The 2020 Election Was Stolen. Period. Beginning Of Story. Edition
Epstein Flipped Israel's Gaza-Tested Biometric Scanners Into Nigeria Ports Deal for UAE
Former Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak used the Boko Haram threat to pilot Israeli facial recognition scanning in Nigeria, while Jeffrey Epstein facilitated oil and logistics deals.
The year before Jeffrey Epstein's suspicious death in a Manhattan jail, the financier was working to broker an infrastructure deal for Emirati logistics conglomerate DP World in Nigeria, according to a massive trove of emails released by the Justice Department last month.
In an email exchange from the summer of 2018, Epstein facilitated talks between then-chair of Nigeria's sovereign investment fund, Jide Zeitlin, and DP World's ex-chairman, Sultan Ahmad bin Sulayem, on possible shipping terminals in Lagos and Badagry. Sulayem resigned from DP World on February 13, 2026 amid fallout from the revelation of his intimate friendship with Epstein.
DP World's leadership was reluctant to invest in an industrial zone in Nigeria unless they could own the surrounding port outright, and talks with previous Nigerian presidents, since 2005, had led nowhere. Zeitlin informed Sulayem that he was close to then-President Muhammadu Buhari and billionaire shipping magnate Gabriele Volpi-the owner of Intels, Nigeria's largest logistics company, which services the country's massive oil & gas sector. Epstein, in turn, offered to involve Kathryn Ruemmler, former White House counsel under President Barack Obama. Ruemmler recently announced her resignation as chief legal officer of Goldman Sachs.
Sulayem and Epstein worked together for more than a decade, cultivating a friendship between Israel and the United Arab Emirates long before the Abraham Accords agreement in 2020. Zeitlin wrote to Epstein in September 2018, after Djibouti nationalized DP World's main hub in East Africa, "I hope your pal's sojourn in Tel Aviv ... was more effective than his efforts on the African continent." After Epstein's death, DP World acquired a controlling stake in a Nigerian logistics provider in 2022 and began expanding its footprint in Lagos as of last year.
Epstein was keen to profit from armed conflicts on the African continent. While negotiating DP World's access to Nigeria, he was also helping Zeitlin navigate around U.S. sanctions on Ivan Glasenberg, the Israeli-South African CEO of mining giant Glencore, and Oleg Deripaska, then-chairman of the Russian aluminum titan Rusal. Glencore's operations had been disrupted by a fraud probe into their dealings with Israeli mining kingpin Dan Gertler in Congo-Kinshasa. "Do you know Oleg Deripaska or Ivan Glasenberg?" Zeitlin asked Epstein. "Easy," Epstein replied.
The American financier had deep ties to Israeli mining and military outfits in Africa, which he helped support alongside former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak-a close associate with whom Epstein corresponded almost daily. "With civil unrest exploding in ukraine syria, somolia, libya, and the desperation of those in power," Epstein wrote in a 2014 email to Barak, "isn't this perfect for you." Barak replied, "You're right [in] a way. But not simple to transform it into a cash flow."

'EMBARRASSINGLY WEALTHY'
In one email from Cooper to Andrew in response to a series of questions Andrew had sent over, the Illinois businessman joked: "In the event, you answer the above questions in a satisfactory manner and we all become embarrassingly wealthy, will you also facilitate the search for the meaning of life?"
Aside from Lismore's 75 percent, the remaining 25 percent stake in P&ID was bought by hedge fund VR Capital, which was previously involved in the bankruptcy of now-defunct Russian oil giant Yukos.
It is not clear from the cache of documents if 1800 now stands to gain 10 percent of Lismore's share or of the total settlement, including VR Capital's stake.
After they were hired by P&ID, Archer and Cooper also brought in two more men as advisers - Jarrod Patten and Arthur Maxwell.
Documents suggest that Patten and Maxwell stand to receive a 10 percent cut of the payout to be obtained by Archer.
They also show that Patten scheduled a dinner with Archer on April 25, 2017, just a day before Patten was photographed sitting very close to Joe Biden at a Washington Wizards basketball game.
Meanwhile, emails show that, for his part, Maxwell brought high-level political connections in Nigeria to the table.
In an email he sent to Patten and Archer on May 6, 2017, Maxwell wrote: "I know I can get to (Nigerian President) Buhari directly and I think that's the most practical approach."
In another email he sent to Seamus Andrew in April 2018, Maxwell boasted: "I continue to maintain very deep relationships in Nigeria."
He went on to explain that one of his contacts "in country" was a man known as "Godfather," who Maxwell claimed was a key adviser to previous Nigerian president Goodluck Jonathan and a "significant influencer" to outgoing President Buhari.
Non-profit organization Marco Polo has made headlines by investigating and producing a report on the infamous laptop Hunter Biden left abandoned in a Delaware repair shop in 2019.
Marco Polo and its founder, Garrett Ziegler, are currently being sued by Hunter Biden's lawyer Kevin Morris, who accuses them of civil harassment, doxing, invasion of privacy, criminal impersonation and intentional infliction of emotional distress.
Ziegler denies the allegations.
A Boies Schiller Flexner spokeswoman declined to comment.
The U.S. Sun reached out asking for comment from Devon Archer, Jeffrey Cooper, lawyers for Hunter Biden, the White House, Jarrod Patten, Arthur Maxwell, Seamus Andrew and Jide Zeitlin but received no response.

In that agreement, 1800 agreed to hand Boies half of its 10 percent of the reward after notifying the law firm and Archer of its receipt.
A side note from 2019 emailed to Archer by one of his advisors in the P&ID matter states that Archer "will enjoy 5 percent" of the eventual settlement.
Archer is believed to owe substantial fees to Boies for representing him in a fraud case he was convicted for, which may help explain why his five percent of the settlement would go to the law firm.
Boies also employed Archer's business partner Hunter Biden from 2010 up to at least 2016.
The court battle over the payout was brought to the US in March 2018 when P&ID sought to have the District Court of Washington, DC, enforce the U.K. arbitration ruling.
That U.S. case remains open pending the upcoming decision of England's High Court.
When Nigeria disputed the Washington, DC, court's jurisdiction over the matter, the Court of Appeals asked the Department of Justice to file a brief on the issue.
The brief was written by Biden Administration-appointed Acting Assistant General Attorney Brian Boynton in January 2022.
In it, Boynton and the DOJ sided with P&ID, and within two months, the Court of Appeals ruled in P&ID's favor.
The litigation in Washington, DC, may help explain what Archer and Cooper are bringing to the table, which would justify such a huge potential payday for them.
Former Abercrombie & Fitch model Archer's career has been defined by his top-level political connections in Washington, DC.
His closeness to the Bidens is apparent in an August 2014 picture obtained by Tucker Carlson Tonight that shows him playing golf with Joe and the then-Vice President's son in the Hamptons.
And in a text message from March 2019 found on Hunter's "laptop from hell", Hunter tells Archer: "You are a Biden."
Archer also served as the co-chair of finance for John Kerry's presidential campaign in 2004 and was scheduled to visit Kerry at the State Department in March 2016 when his former boss was serving as America's top diplomat.
He boasted in one of the emails in the cache of secret documents that he was friends with Jide Zeitlin, who, according to his LinkedIn, was the chairman of the Nigeria Sovereign Investment Authority at that time.
