This story is absolute hogwash. The demonstrations last summer were started by housewives protesting the price of cottage cheese. They were joined by university students protesting an unconscionable rise of their rents. Pretty soon everyone joined in, 500,000 people on the streets every week. But they were from every part of the political spectrum, mostly from the middle class, each with their own complaint. The government reacted swiftly with legislation and the CEO of the largest diary company in Israel had to resign when she came under investigation by the combines authorities. Rents too have slipping every since. This has nothing to do with Arabs or Soros and any other non-domestic issue. The demonstrations were clean, orderly, and non-violent.
As for legislation aimed at exposing the funding of radical left-wing groups, this was aimed primarily at meddling governments such as Switzerland and Sweden, not so much at private funding. Although Soros may be involved, but he’s nor only small potatoes, he’s hardly visible on the plate. These radicals are little more than a corporal’s guard easily contained but they make a big noise outside Israel.
I’m no fan of Soros but with Egypt going down the tubes, Syria in tumult, and Iran building a bomb, we have important issues to deal with. Who in Israel cares what Soros does? I can think of absolutely no one.
If you google around, you’ll learn the “spontaneous” Israel protests were actually orchestrated by a US Democrat party agitprop shop.
If that’s true, then I’m glad to hear it. There have been rumblings about Soros money across the Middle-East though. Egypt was one of the places.
Thanks for the response.
"Arab Spring" was ignited by one idiot street vendor who set himself afire in Tunis or somewhere. The reverberations are still out there because the real forces of evil wait for just such insignificant protests to mobilize, take charge, and hijack the grievances into rebellion.
You are seriously misinformed.
Our State Department orchestrated the “protests.” Cables were released from Wiki-leaks showing State making arrangements to train protest leaders in the US. Google was involved. A Google executive who was in Egypt while protestors were conducting their coup, said so. Code Pinko was over there along with other Soros radical activists.
The White Hut was involved; calling for the government to step down. The media was involved calling the demonstrators “democracy” protestors. Egyptians were useful idiots for the US government and Obammy’s pals. They planned on the Muslim Brotherhood taking over the government.

DC’s Anti-Bibi Team Behind Housing Protests
by Eitam Abadi
“As large scale social justice protests marched through Tel Aviv, Haifa and Jerusalem Saturday night, it was revealed that the movement that began in July over the skyrocketing cost of housing in Israel may have been orchestrated by outside players.
According to an investigative report by Maariv‘s Kalman Libeskind, the protests were engineered by a group of media strategists who are directed by prominent American political operative Stanley Greenberg, a close adviser to United States President Barack Obama inherited from former US President Bill Clinton.”
