If the market suddenly collapse, we know who is behind it. He should then be hunted down and shot.
Soros should be in prison or worse...
"Hungarian born. Naturalized US citizen for quite a while. Emigrated here in '56"
I thought that back then it took over a decade, at the least, to get citizenship here for immigrants. Do you have a link to a source showing that he came here in 1956? I have heard several times that he became a citizen of the USA in 1961, but that would mean that he was here for only 5 years before he became a citizen. I am wondering how he got his citizenship so quickly. A source for both when he came here and when he became a citizen would help.
Anyone else got any comments or sources?
Thanks.

There are many other on-line sources that say he emigrated in 1956. I can't find any that say when he became a citizen, just that he did. I too have heard 1961, but don't claim it to be true.
Green Iguana, thank you for your response.
TheBigB and Bogolyubski, do either of you have a link to when Soros became a US citizen? Please see my post number 83 and if either of you have any comments please feel free to make them.
Check out the Richard Poe site - richardpoe.com. He's done quite a bit of research on Soros and his activities. The Hungarian uprising against the Soviets took place in 1956. I think there was a special provision enacted so that any refugees from Hungary were given an accelerated naturalization process.
Sounds good. Thank you.
