And like their 1930’s national socialist german worker’s party brethren, modern leftists are openly talking about seizing property of people they find “problematic”.
Someone who would have appreciated a violin of such high standards would be the late violinist Yehudi Menuhin, (1916 to 1999) an American born violin virtuoso. He performed for Allied soldiers during WW2, and surving inmates of a number of concentration camps in July 1945, after their liberation in April of the same year. I don’t know a lot about him.
I just happened to hear some of his music and was more or less swept away with his skills and interpretations of Bach and Bartok pieces.
George Soros’s m.o..
Yes.
I recall how excited and animated he was when talking about the glorious heady days of his youth collaborating with actual nazis.
They still try to scrub that interview or explain it away.
That was 80 years ago.
Does ‘money grubbing’ have a statute of limitations?
How long would you be unhappy about something stolen from you or your family?
Looks like he’s in position to do it again.
You mean like a republic?
Or a damned old violin?
Yeah, it does.
A friend of mine has a violin that was made in the 1730’s.
I’m no music expert but the sound is amazing.
The ‘bankers’ stole 1/2 million dollars from my grandfather in 1929 while he was on a ship in the pacific.
My father never mentioned it as a victim, not once.
I suppose some people need to be victims, forever.
The article is about a violin that is worth money.
The person the violin was stolen from died 82 years ago.
There is no ‘attachment’ to this instrument on the part of the family, it’s just the money.
And everyone knows it.
Thanks nickcarraway.
