Hi Everyone:

I am still serving in the IDF and hope to return back to the adult industry in 37 days 22 hours and 5 minutes. Currently I am in Prague.

I just read an article about Stephen Michael Cohen and his partner Zeev Rosenstein in the Israel newspaper.

Mr. Rosenstein is more infamous that our Mr. Cohen. Here is some articles about him;

http://www.news24.com/News24/World/0,,2-10...1458256,00.html

http://www.arabtimesonline.com/arabtimes/o...w.asp?msgID=345

According to Miranda Levi the writer of the article, Cohen and Rosenstein own 38 casinos through out Europe including the Las Vegas Casino in Budapest.

The article went on to say that Rosenstein and Cohen are also owners of the Kempinski Hotels.

When asked what the relationship was between Rosenstein and the fugitive Sex King, Rosenstein responded by saying that he has never heard of Stephen Michael Cohen.

Ms. Levi then states that she confronted Rosenstein with the fact that he and Mr. Cohen are both listed as owners of 38 casinos on their gambling license in Prague. Mr. Cohen is the same Stephen Michael Cohen from the Sex.com case. She even told Rosenstein that the gambling license shows that Cohen’s phone number in Budapest is 30 307-8259.

Rosenstein responded by saying that it was not healthy to continue this conversation.

The article goes on and talks about how Rosenstein used to own a casino in Palestine and was partners with Yossi Ginossar who happen at the time to be the head of Israel’s secret service.

It seems that the only person that Arafat will trust with his money is Machmoud Rasheed, who just happened to be the partner of Yossi Ginossar and Zeev Rosenstein.

The article went on to say that there was a close and financial relationship between Ginossar, Rosenstein and Prime Minister Sharon through his sons. Ginossar died of cancer in January of this year. The funeral was a major event here in Israel and the news article also claims that Machmoud Rasheed, Zeev Rosenstein and Cohen were together at the final services for Ginossar with the PM and his sons.

A few years back, the Israel Government bombed the casino in Palestine after several Palestinian bombing. However, the relationship between Rosenstein and Rasheed continues to this date according to the article. Rosenstein and Rasheed started a Peer to Peer company called Earthstation 5 (http://www.earthstationv.com) located in Palestine.

Earthstation 5 was set up to offer its users online world wide sports betting. The goal was once the user base reached 40 million users from around the world online at any given moment in the day, Earthstation 5 would then offer online sports betting in 28 languages.

The article goes on and says Earthstation 5 ran into software problems and Rasheed tried to get Cohen on his team by offering him an ownership and a director’s position. Rasheed felt that Cohen has a lot of knowledge since he was so successful with sex.com.

Cohen turned him down. According to the article, several weeks later, as things got worse at Earthstation 5, Rosenstein flew to Monte Carlo and met with Cohen. Cohen agreed to help as a consultant.

The president of Earthstation 5 is listed as Ras Kabir, which means in Arab “Big Head” and is also the nickname for Rasheed.

The article goes on to say that Cohen, Rosenstein and Rasheed are all multi-billionaires at the expense of others. According to the article, Cohen was granted citizenship in Monaco last year, where he currently resides with his two girlfriends.

According to Levi, Gary Kremen the current owner of sex.com has a judgment against Cohen for over 85 million dollars including interest. The Judge in the sex.com case also issued a civil warrant for Cohen’s arrest to force Cohen into paying Kremen.

However, according to Levi the warrant of arrest has no effect outside of the United States and Mr. Kerman’s judgment would be hard to enforce since the United States does not have any judgment treaties with any other countries.

They should write a book on Cohen entitled “How to go from a jail cell to a multi-billionaire by being a smart thief and getting away with it. Cohen must be one smart son of a bitch. What a crock of shit!

What should scare everyone is Cohen is now in a position to steal content and offer it for free to the users of Earthstation5. No credit cards, no form of payment, stolen content what would this do to our industry? We all know without question that Cohen is a fucking thief. Earthstation 5 is starting to give away free streaming sex 24 hours a day. No doubt, STOLEN CONTENT.

I hope when I get out of the IDF their will be a business to return to.

We need to start a drama/calling out timeline. Really.
It would be interesting as hell to look back over it after 6 months and a year have passed... and even 3 yrs and more later.

I bet you'd find some telling correlations if you tracked it.
