More firings at TV and Radio Martí over controversial George Soros report
Miami Herald ^ | 3/1/19 | Nora Gamez Torres

Four additional staffers at Radio and TV Martí have been fired over a controversial report broadcast last year that referred to Jewish philanthropist George Soros as “anti-Semitic” — bringing to eight the number of dismissals at the station so far following a months-long internal investigation by the Office of Cuba Broadcasting (OCB), which oversees the Martí stations, as well as the Martínoticias digital site.

The report, aired by Isabel Cuervo for the Antena Live program, raises conspiracy theories about Soros, who is identified as a “left-wing billionaire of Hungarian-Jewish origin” and a “nonpracticing Jew of flexible morals.” The broadcast, which aired in three separate segments, included an interview that was posted on YouTube by RT.com that Cuervo used with no attribution to the source and another one passed off as her own interview with an alleged expert.

Cuervo and former News Editor Wilfredo Cancio were dismissed immediately after then Senator Jeff Flake and Senator Bob Menéndez demanded an investigation. The Martí report, broadcast last May, made headlines at the end of October when a blog on Cuban issues raised questions about the broadcast just days after Soros received a bomb threat...

a "nonpracticing Jew of flexible morals."

And a Nazi collaborator. I guess that doesn't matter today if you're a moneybag liberal.

flexible > (more like) non-existant

The Attorney General should have addressed this guy’s shenanigans a long time ago.

I usually take a verrrry dim view of accusations of anti-semitism, since the smear has come to mean virtually anything and nothing via overuse.

But SOROS..?

He was a Wehrmacht asset and he reveled in it.

If any person on planet earth is an anti-semite, it is SOROS.

He described his time in the service of Hitler’s war machine as, “the happiest time in my life, the feeling of total power”.

He was very clear and outspoken about it in a 60 Minutes interview.

He sent his fellow Jews to the concentration camps.

And now he works with the Muslims and the Communists against Israel.

There will be a final judgement of this man.

I don’t say this very often, but I don’t think he’ll fair very well.

He has backed so many causes that are vile, that it’s difficult to know where to start.

Amazing how so many of these old lefties seem to live on and on and on.

Castro lasted to 90, so by that benchmark George has 2 years left.

“There will be a final judgement of this man. I don’t say this very often, but I don’t think he’ll fair very well.”

Agreed. But I can’t but help wish for judgment while he’s still on earth. This guy is evil in so many ways. I’d like for him to start having to pay his judgment now.

Well, well, we’ll...it appears (to me) that Jeff Flake is now on Soros’ payroll.

Let’s hear Soros IN HIS OWN WORDS about his service for the Wehrmacht:

I am dropping you at the exact point in the 60 Min interview where he rationalizes it.

"It was actually a very happy-making, exhilirating experience."

That’s right. He should have been in prison or dead long ago.

Even at 12 years old or whatever one would have a conscience or develop one later

It is perfectly plausible and even understandable that a person with Jewish ancestry could become a complete anti-semitic crusader, in a fit of lifelong adolescent rebellion. George Soros never got beyond a total revulsion of the Torah and all its accumulated wisdom, HE was going to go on and become the smartest richest person in the world, this traditional BS be damned.

It is easy. Just share false witness against your own family and cousins, and soon, the earthly rewards come pouring in. This is known as “making a deal with the Devil”, like Faust, and enjoying the vast harvest of the goods and possessions of others, to “redirect” the application of these markers of wealth, building a loyal army of vassals and toadies around the world, who are well rewarded for their schemes to strip out and eviscerate economies all over the world.

There are non-religious persons of Jewish descent, that in any rational world, would not be considered to be “Jews” in any manner, yet they are classified right along with the most orthodox and conservative Jew out there. Therefore, to prove their bona fides as authentic and absent of fraud, they sought to define themselves in the most stark means at their disposal, by becoming the greatest of anti-Semitic advocates around. George Soros clearly falls into this class.

Flexible means willing to compromise. In the context of morality, how is this seen as a good thing by the Left?
