My understanding is that he made his billions through currrency exchange fraud using illegal deep insider intelligence during the Clinton Administration.

The Left: The smear ad published against Gen. Petraeus has drawn attention to its sponsor, MoveOn.org. But the fingerprints of the group's chief financial backer, George Soros, were all over it. Who is this man and what is he up to?
o read Soros' own spun story, he's a Jewish survivor of Nazi-occupied Hungary who pulled himself up by his bootstraps, studied economics in England, became a U.S. citizen in 1961 and made a multibillion-dollar fortune as a financier who pioneered hedge funds.
Over the years, Soros has written books giving his philosophical take on global affairs and acquired a reputation as something of a "stateless statesman." He calls himself a philanthropist and has given away $5 billion of his now $8.5 billion fortune through his principal vehicle, the Open Society Institute. The institute, in turn, has passed cash on to far more radical groups, such as MoveOn.org.

Wow. Just read the article.
He’s a selfish and dangerous man.
Soros is like the alien who assures us that he "comes to serve man". He does. He really does.
Soros money is behind Obama. Remember the Illinois scandal about the guy who dropped out? Remember how Obama came out of nowhere?
Follow the money.
I recall a 60 minutes show in the ‘80’s that interviewed Soros, and I seem to recall him saying that he was 12 yrs. old during the Nazi Occupation, and led the Nazis to many jews...like a 1,000 or more....seriously, not making this up, did it to survive.....
The Anti-Christ?
The Seante voted (75-25) to condemn MoveOn.Org for its despicable advertisement in the new York Times. The measure garnered 75 votes which means that at least 26 Democrats voted for it. Hopefully, Democrats are beginning to feel the heat for their anti-war stance.
The 25 traitors voting nay:
25 Voting Nay.

Thanks for the post Kaslin.
“I fancied myself as some kind of god … ,” Soros once said. “If the truth be known, I carried some rather potent messianic fantasies with me from childhood, which I felt I had to control, otherwise they might get me in trouble.
“It is a sort of disease when you consider yourself some kind of god, the creator of everything, but I feel comfortable about it now since I began to live it out.”
Well I’m no statesman but he kinda sounds like a terrorist to me.
I read one of his books some years ago. Didn't he say he once thought he was God or something, like John Lennon?
Very full of himself, which I suppose is the sort of ingredient that helps make one super successful...businessmen and dictators, etc.
Anyway, I wondered, as I glanced at this, just how much his money has had to do with the rise of the worst of leftist causes over the past decade...I wonder how his money got to bill clinton and how it gets to hillary.
wow. you’d think they’d have sense to vote for it so that this list wouldn’t read like a Who’s Who in America’s Left.
I don't think so. More like his banker. A twisted John the Baptist, preparing the way.
According the article, quite a bit. He says he wants to tear down the US to be subjugated to the UN, that we shouldn't be a world power.
Why do I think of Ernst Stavro Blofeld, every time I hear Soros?
Is there any proof that he’s a Jew? I think that this is a masquerade..
lol.
“Is there any proof that he’s a Jew?”
When it’s convenient.
In the United Kingdom 16th Sept 1992 is known in financial circles as Black Wednesday. The then Conservative government was forced to withdraw from the European Exchange Rate Mechanism (ERM).
This was due to pressure from speculators. A leading figure was Soros. He made a billion USD. The whole debacle cost five billion USD. I believe the tax payer footed much of the bill. Dangerous? Someone got that right.
My understanding is that he made his billions through currrency exchange fraud using illegal deep insider intelligence during the Clinton Administration.
