Soros: Republic Enemy #1 by Jim O'Neill,  Canada Free Press, September 15, 2009   “The main obstacle to a stable and just world order is the  United States .”—George Soros   “George Soros is an evil man. He’s anti-God, anti-family, anti-American, and anti-good.” —Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson Is it possible to lay the global financial meltdown,  the radicalizing of the Democratic Party, and America ’s moral decline, at the feet of one man?   It is indeed possible.   If George Soros isn’t the world’s preeminent “malignant messianic narcissist,” he’ll do until the real thing comes along.  Move over, Hitler, Stalin, Mao, and Pol Pot.  There’s a new kid on the block.   What we have in Soros, is a multi-billionaire atheist, with skewed moral values, and a sociopath’s lack of conscience.  He considers himself to be a world class philosopher, despises capitalism, and just loves social engineering.   Uh oh.  Can you say “trouble,” boys and girls?   Soros is a real life version of Dr. Evil—with Obama in the role of Mini-Me.  Which is not as humorous as it might at first sound.  In fact, it’s bone-deep chilling.   György Schwartz, better known to the world as George Soros, was born August 12, 1930 in  Hungary .  Soros’ father, Tivadar, was a fervent practitioner of Esperanto—a language invented in 1887, and designed to be the first global language, free of any national identity.   The Schwartz’s, who were non-practicing Jews, changed the family name to Soros, in order to facilitate assimilation into the gentile population, as the Nazis spread into Hungary during the 1930s.  Soros is an Esperanto word meaning “to soar.”   In 1944 Hitler’s henchman Adolf Eichmann arrived in  Hungary , to oversee the murder of that country’s Jews.  The Soros children were all given fake identity papers, and were shipped out to various Christian families.  George Soros ended up with a man whose job was confiscating property from the Jewish population.  Soros went with him on his rounds.   Soros has repeatedly called 1944 “the best year of his life.”   In an article in the Wall Street Journal, Joshua Muravchik notes that, “70% of Mr. Soros’s fellow Jews in  Hungary, nearly a half-million human beings, were annihilated in that year. They were dying and disappearing all around him, and their numbers no doubt included many whom he knew personally. Yet he gives no sign that this put any damper on his elation, either at the time or indeed in retrospect.”   During an interview with “Sixty Minutes” Steve Kroft, Soros was asked about his “best year:”   Sweetness & Light       KROFT: My understanding is that you went out with this protector of yours who  swore that you were his adopted godson.       SOROS: Yes. Yes.       KROFT: Went out, in fact, and helped in the confiscation of property from the Jews.       SOROS: Yes. That’s right. Yes.       KROFT: I mean, that sounds like an experience that would send lots of people to the psychiatric couch for many, many years. Was it difficult?       SOROS: Not, not at all.  Not at all.       KROFT: No feeling of guilt?       SOROS: No.   Of course he didn’t feel guilty.  Soros has the moral depth of a clam.  Nonetheless, he has said, “my goal is to become the conscience of the world.”   In his article, Muravchik describes how Soros has admitted to having “carried some rather potent messianic fantasies with me from childhood, which I felt I had to control, otherwise they might get me in trouble.”   Can you imagine the results of this messianic sociopath being “the conscience of the world?”  Ye gods.   Be that as it may.  After WWII, Soros attended the London School of Economics, where he fell under the thrall of fellow atheist and Hungarian, Karl Popper, one of his professors.  Popper was a mentor to Soros until Popper’s death in 1994.  Two of Popper’s most influential teachings concerned “the open society,” and Fallibilism.   Fallibilism is the philosophical doctrine that all claims of knowledge could, in principle, be mistaken.  Then again, I could be wrong about that.   The “open society” basically refers to a “test and evaluate” approach to social engineering.  Regarding “open society” Roy Childs writes, “Since the Second World War, most of the Western democracies have followed Popper’s advice about piecemeal social engineering and democratic social reform, and it has gotten them into a grand mess." In 1956 Soros moved to  New York City , where he worked on Wall Street, and started amassing his fortune.  He specialized in hedge funds and currency speculation.   Soros is absolutely ruthless, amoral, and clever in his business dealings, and quickly made his fortune.  By the 1980s he was well on his way to becoming the global powerhouse that he is today.   In an article Kyle-Anne Shiver wrote for “The American Thinker” she says, “Soros made his first billion in 1992 by shorting the British pound with leveraged billions in financial bets, and became known as the man who broke the Bank of England.  He broke it on the backs of hard-working British citizens who immediately saw their homes severely devalued and their life savings cut drastically…almost overnight.”   In 1994 Soros crowed in “The  New  Republic ” that “the former Soviet Empire is now called the Soros Empire.”  The Russia-gate scandal in 1999, which almost collapsed the Russian economy, was labeled by Rep. Jim Leach, then head of the House Banking Committee, to be “one of the greatest social robberies in human history.”  The “Soros Empire” indeed.   In 1997 Soros almost destroyed the economies of  Thailand and  Malaysia .  At the time,  Malaysia ’s Prime Minister, Mahathir Mohamad, called Soros “a villain, and a moron.”  Thai activist Weng Tojirakarn said, “We regard George Soros as a kind of Dracula. He sucks the blood from the people.”   The website “Greek National Pride” reports, “[Soros] was part of the full court press that dismantled  Yugoslavia and caused trouble in Georgia,  Ukraine and  Myanmar [Burma].  Calling himself a philanthropist, Soros’ role is to tighten the ideological stranglehold of globalization and the New World Order while promoting his own financial gain.  He is without conscience; a capitalist who functions with absolute amorality.”   France has upheld an earlier conviction against Soros, for felony insider trading.  Soros was fined 2.9 million dollars.   Recently, his native Hungary fined Soros 2.2 million dollars for “illegal market manipulation.”  Elizabeth Crum writes that “The Hungarian economy has been in a state of transition as the country seeks to become more financially stable and westernized.  [Soros’] deliberately driving down the share price of its largest bank put Hungary’s economy into a wicked tailspin, one from which it is still trying to recover.”   Soros’ grasp, greed, gluttony have a global reach   My point here is that Soros is a planetary parasite.  His grasp, greed, and gluttony have a global reach.   But what about  America?  Soros told  Australia ’s national newspaper The Australian “America, as the centre of the globalised financial markets, was sucking up the savings of the world.  This is now over. The game is out,” he said, adding that the time has come for “a very serious adjustment” in American’s consumption habits.   Ready to tighten your belts,  America ?   Soros also told The Australian that the world financial crisis was “stimulating” and “in a way, the culmination of my life’s work.”   Stimulating.  Have you found the job losses, house foreclosures, and incredible national debt—stimulating?  Me neither.   Obama has recently promised 10 billion of our tax dollars to  Brazil (yes, billion with a “b”), in order to give them a leg-up in expanding their offshore oil fields.  Obama’s largesse towards Brazil came shortly after Soros invested heavily in Brazilian oil (Petrobras).   Tait Trussel writes, “The Petrobras loan may be a windfall for Soros and  Brazil , but it is a bad deal for the  U.S.   The American Petroleum Institute estimates that oil exploration in the U.S. could create 160,000 new, well-paying jobs, as well as $1.7 trillion in revenues to federal, state, and local governments, all while fostering greater energy security.”   Do you get the feeling that American taxpayers are being treated like gullible suckers?   (By the way, if you want a short primer on Far Left economics—and a great cartoon from a 1911 St. Louis Post-Dispatch—go to actor Michael Moriarty’s website).   And a blog you might want to keep an eye on is SorosWatch.com.  This is their mission: “This blog is dedicated to all…who have suffered due to the ruthless financial pursuits of…George Soros. Your stories are many and varied, but the theme is the same:  the destructive power of greed without conscience. We pledge to tirelessly watch Soros wherever he goes and to print the truth in the hope that he will one day stop preying upon the world’s poor…that justice will be served.”   Back to  America.  Soros has been actively working to destroy  America from the inside out for some years now.  People have been warning us.  Two years ago Bill O’Reilly said on “The O’Reilly Factor” that “Soros [is] an extremist who wants open borders, a one-world foreign policy, legalized drugs, euthanasia, and on and on. This is off-the-chart dangerous….”    In 1997 Rachel Ehrenfeld wrote, “Soros uses his philanthropy to change—or more accurately deconstruct—the moral values and attitudes of the Western world, and particularly of the American people.  His “open society” is not about freedom; it is about license. His vision rejects the notion of ordered liberty, in favor of an ideology of rights and entitlements.”   Perhaps the most important of these “whistle blowers” are David Horowitz and Richard Poe.  Their book “The Shadow Party” outlines in detail how Soros hijacked the Democratic Party, and now owns it lock, stock, and barrel.   Soros has been packing the Democratic Party with radicals, and ousting moderate Democrats for years.  I don’t have time to do the subject justice in this article, but FrontPage’s Jamie Glazov has an excellent interview with Richard Poe, which will fill you in on many of the facts.   The Shadow Party became the Shadow Government, which became the Obama Administration.   DiscoverTheNetworks.org (another good source) writes, “By his [Soros’] own admission, he helped engineer coups in  Slovakia, Croatia,  Georgia, and  Yugoslavia.  When Soros targets a country for “regime change,” he begins by creating a shadow government—a fully formed government-in-exile, ready to assume power when the opportunity arises. The Shadow Party he has built in  America greatly resembles those he has created in other countries prior to instigating a coup.”    The above quote was, of course, written before the Presidential Election.  So was the following quote from a November 2008 edition of the German magazine Der Spiegel, in which Soros gives his opinion on what the next POTUS should do after taking office.  “I think we need a large stimulus package….”  Soros thought that around 600 billion would be about right.   Soros also said that “I think this is a great opportunity to finally deal with global warming and energy dependence. The  U.S. needs a cap and trade system with auctioning of licenses for emissions rights.”   Any of this sound familiar?   Although Soros doesn’t (yet) own the Republican Party, like he does the Democrats, make no mistake, his tentacles are spread throughout the Republican Party as well.   Soros is a partner in the Carlyle Group where he has invested more than 100 million dollars.  According to an article by The Baltimore Chronicle’s Alice Cherbonnier, the Carlye Group is run by “a veritable who’s who of former Republican leaders,” from CIA man Frank Carlucci, to former CIA head [and ex-President] George Bush, Sr.   In late 2006, Soros bought about 2 million shares of Halliburton—Dick Cheney’s old stomping grounds.   When the Democrats and Republicans held their conventions in 2000, Soros held Shadow Party conventions in the same cities, at the same time.  Republican Senator John McCain was the keynote speaker at the “Soros Convention” (so labeled by the late Robert Novak) in  Philadelphia.   Soros has dirtied both sides of the aisle, trust me.  And if that weren’t bad enough, he has long held connections with the CIA.   And I musn’t forget to mention Soros’ involvement with the LSM (Lame Stream Media), the entertainment industry (e.g. he owns 2.6 million shares of Time Warner), and the various political advertising organizations he funnels millions to.   As Matthew Vadum writes, “The liberal billionaire-turned-philanthropist has been buying up media properties for years in order to drive home his message to the American public that they are too materialistic, too wasteful, too selfish, and too stupid to decide for themselves how to run their own lives.”   Richard Poe writes, “Soros’ private philanthropy, totaling nearly $5 billion, continues undermining  America ’s traditional Western values. His giving has provided funding of abortion rights, atheism, drug legalization, sex education, euthanasia, feminism, gun control, globalization, mass immigration, gay marriage and other radical experiments in social engineering.”   Some of the many NGOs (Non-Government Organizations) that Soros funds with his billions are: MoveOn.org, the Apollo  Alliance, Media Matters for  America, the Tides Foundation, the ACLU, ACORN, PDIA (Project on Death In  America ), La Raza, and many more.  For a more complete list, with brief descriptions of the NGOs, go to DiscoverTheNetworks.org.   Poe continues, “Through his global web of Open Society Institutes and Open Society Foundations, Soros has spent 25 years recruiting, training, indoctrinating and installing a network of loyal operatives in 50 countries, placing them in positions of influence and power in media, government, finance and academia.”   As I’ve said before,  America currently faces the greatest challenge to its existence as a free republic since the Civil War.  And as we go, so goes the world.   So is Soros to blame for all of  America ’s woes?   Without Soros, would the Saul Alinsky Chicago machine still be rolling?  Would SEIU, ACORN, and La Raza still be pursuing their nefarious activities?  Would Big Money and lobbyists still be corrupting government?  Would our college campuses still be retirement homes for 1960s radicals?  Yes, yes, yes, and yes—but to much less of a degree.   The purpose of this article is to point out that without the financial skullduggery and Machiavellian manipulations of  Soros,  America would be a considerably safer, saner, and stabler place to live.   America stands at the brink of an abyss, and that fact is directly attributable to Soros.  Soros has vigorously, cleverly, and insidiously planned the ruination of  America ..   His conduct has been immoral, duplicitous, and traitorous.  Stripping Soros of his  U.S. citizenship, should be one of the first steps taken during the upcoming courtroom trials.   And trials there must be.  No matter the cost, the nest of vipers on Capitol Hill, and all of the traitors in the government at large, must be brought to task for their behavior, or a free America is doomed.   The words of Patrick Henry are apropos: “Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery?  Forbid it, Almighty God!  I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!”   These days, Patrick Henry’s sentiment is more than just some quaint hyperbole from long ago—it’s a slow burning, but intense, glow that fires our courage and heart.   Laus Deo.     Born in June of 1951 in  Philadelphia,  Pennsylvania, Jim O’Neill proudly served in the  U.S. Navy from 1970-1974 in both UDT-21 (Underwater Demolition Team) and SEAL Team Two.  A member of MENSA, he worked as a commercial diver in the waters off Scotland, India, and the United States.
