Mary Anastasia O'Grady writes in today's Wall Street Journal that George Soros's Open Society Institute has been funding terrorism. In a column entitled Friends of Terror in Peru, O'Grady notes that
Thursday's vote by the European Parliament to take the Peruvian guerrilla group known as the Tupac Amaru (aka MRTA) off its terrorist list has Peru in an uproar. For good reason: The MRTA is notorious for kidnapping, torturing and murdering civilians to advance its political agenda. More recently, Peruvian officials have linked it to Hugo Chávez's "Bolivarian Movement," which seeks to destabilize democracies in Latin America, and to the Colombian rebel group FARC...Get out your stopwatch and time how quickly Soros's paid shills at Media Matters for America write up a post denouncing the WSJ report....Meanwhile the work of other foreign-funded NGOs in the interest of terrorist organizations warrants urgent attention. Take the Peruvian "human-rights" group Aprodeh, which labored in Europe to get the MRTA off the terrorist list there, even though Peru still considers it a grave threat to its security.
...In 2007, according to government records, Aprodeh received funding from Oxfam America, George Soros's Open Society, the John Merck Foundation, the city of Barcelona, the Dutch embassy and a U.S. government agency called the Inter-American Foundation, among others. On Friday, the Peruvian government asked Aprodeh to explain how its NGO status allows it to intervene on behalf of terrorists, as it did in the European Parliament...[emphasis added]
You may expect that once elected (unlikely IMO,) McCain will suddenly wake up and regret having carried Soros' water and demand a repeal of his own CFR, claim his amnesty plan was a mistake, acknowledge that CO2 is a gas involved in life, and decide not to destroy our economy for a hoax, etc. McCain's previous actions, pushing Soros' agenda, is hardly a "lunatic conspirationist theory," whatever that means.
Yes it is, but not as big a stain as this one, or this one, IMHO.
I appreciate you keeping the topic in plain sight.
My pleasure!
Thanks. I sure am getting some great comments tonight. That was another one.
I don’t see this issue addressed enough on the forum. What drives a man who talks of gooks to do something that benifits them or their cohorts directly?
....Soros Funds Terrorism...
Yeah. The sky is blue. The sun comes up in the morning. Grant is buried in Grant’s tomb.
We all in the pro-Serbian FR Balkan Front have known that Soros funds terrorism—especially humaniterrorism—for a long time.
If only everyone believed us way back when, and supported the Serbs in Kosovo and Bosnia.
And we knew back in the 1990's that Clinton was lying, and the msm was not to be trusted, and that Islam was on the move and the US would get hit sooner or later by the very Muslims it sponsored, and the sovereignty concept would be weakened by Kosovo independence in preparation for the North American Union and that the International Court would boomerang on America, and... and... and.
Why couldn't we have had this kind of prescience about the stock market or the commodities trade? Then we would all be rich and not give a darn what anybody thought!
The international pimp Soros gives huge amounts to abortion rights, gay rights, drug legalization, voting rights for felons, euthanasia, and rights for prostitutes and their clients.
His Open Society Institute even helped underwrite attorney Lynne Stewart, subsequently convicted of helping terrorists.
He should be on interpol’s 10 most wanted list of international criminals. Instead he is honored by the international pimp jet set.
As a point of clarification. APRODEH/Francisco Soberon did not propose to the EU that they remove the MRTA from their terrorist list. This has been misreported by Ms. O’Grady and throughout the media. The MRTA was and is not on the EU Terrorist list (nor the US terrorist list). Mr. Soberon wrote a letter to members of the European Parliament recommending that they not adopt an amendment to an unrelated parliamentary resolution on the Latin American Summit taking place in Lima, which called for the MRTA to be added to the EU Terrorist list. The amendment was not adopted. It should be noted that this amendment and resolution would not have had any impact on the EU Terrorist list as this list is not compiled by the European Parliament.
