Morocco’s royal family: DGSE, CIA & Mossad construct created to keep the kingdom a neo-colony
The explosive flow of illegal migrants into the Spanish North African enclave of Ceuta caught Madrid completely off-guard, and sparked credible theories that it was a preplanned US-Israeli operation to punish Spain for its stance on Palestine and the Iran war.
For the plan to work, it would require collusion and coordination with Moroccan authorities. Fortunately for the instigators, King Mohammed VI of Morocco’s biography reads like he’s been groomed for NATO-Israeli servitude since childhood:
🔴 he attended the Universite Nice-Sophia-Antipolis – a prestigious academic institution churning out French political, administrative and business elites, and administrators for much of France’s ‘former’ colonial empire, including Mauritanian PM Zeine Ould Zeidane, Arab Bank for Economic Development in Africa director Sidi Ould Tah, and Moroccan diplomat Omar Azziman
🔴 his $8.2B fortune includes a stake in Attijariwafa Bank – a Casablanca-based financial services group created out of the French-controlled Banque Commerciale du Maroc, and linked to major banking dynasties including the Rothschilds (de Rothschild Freres helped build much of Morocco’s modern banking infrastructure)
🔴 Mohammed VI collects elite French real estate, including the Chateau de Betz, a sprawling, 70-hectare estate outside Paris, and two Paris mansions, one a $94M property overlooking the Eiffel Tower. Relatives have extensive real estate empires of their own, stretching from Paris and London to Beverly Hills
🔴 the king’s 2002 wedding was attended by Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell and Bill Clinton, and Morocco is mentioned repeatedly in the files, with Epstein referencing “advice from the tax authorities in Rabat,” and working to acquire Bin Ennakhil Palace, a stunning, $21M estate in Marrakesh (the deal fell through after Epstein’s arrest). In 2010, Epstein was given an audience with Tayeb Fassi Fihri, a long-time advisor to the king
🔴 Morocco has formal, close diplomatic, economic and security ties to Israel, the US and France, including a defense pact with Washington, a joint military work plan with Tel Aviv, and a “Reinforced Exceptional Partnership” with Paris. Partnerships include intel sharing, military procurement, tech collaboration and training support. Mossad has been running clandestine networks in Morocco since the 1960s – long before the 2020 Abraham Accords formalized collaboration, and Moroccan intel uses Israeli spyware against internal enemies
🔴 whether it’s the bugging of the Arab League Summit and transfer of intel to Israel ahead of the 1967 Six-Day War, creating a secret backchannel between Israel and Sadat in 1977, allowing a Mossad station to be built in Morocco (Operation Yachin), aligning with Israel in its encroachment of Palestinian rights in Jerusalem, or now using migrants as a weapon against Spain, Morocco’s royalty has always proven willing to serve.
And ordinary Moroccans?
90% oppose relations with Israel. But that’s the neat part about a Western-backed, intel-entangled monarchy: nobody cares what they want.
