Soros Says Israel “Main Stumbling Block” to Democracy in Egypt, Encouraged by Muslim Brotherhood
Weasel Zippers ^ | 2/3/2011 | Weasel Zippers

A self-hating Jew to the very hand.

George Soros via WaPo op-ed:

…President Obama personally and the United States as a country have much to gain by moving out in front and siding with the public demand for dignity and democracy. This would help rebuild America’s leadership and remove a lingering structural weakness in our alliances that comes from being associated with unpopular and repressive regimes. Most important, doing so would open the way to peaceful progress in the region. The Muslim Brotherhood’s cooperation with Mohamed ElBaradei, the Nobel laureate who is seeking to run for president, is a hopeful sign that it intends to play a constructive role in a democratic political system. As regards contagion, it is more likely to endanger the enemies of the United States – Syria and Iran – than our allies, provided that they are willing to move out ahead of the avalanche.

The main stumbling block is Israel. In reality, Israel has as much to gain from the spread of democracy in the Middle East as the United States has. But Israel is unlikely to recognize its own best interests because the change is too sudden and carries too many risks. And some U.S. supporters of Israel are more rigid and ideological than Israelis themselves. Fortunately, Obama is not beholden to the religious right, which has carried on a veritable vendetta against him. The American Israel Public Affairs Committee is no longer monolithic or the sole representative of the Jewish community. The main danger is that the Obama administration will not adjust its policies quickly enough to the suddenly changed reality.

If this is the sum of Soros’ intellect, he’s a lightweight. Israel is resistant to ‘democracy’ because whenever the other Middle Eastern states seem to get a shot at it they wind up with hardline Islamic governments. It’s with peaceful but firm strongmen around them that they’ve had the longest stretch without a major war. Soros knows that the quest for ‘democracy’ in Egypt and the rest of the ME is a false prop to fool the masses about what his real intentions are.

Soros is a despicable man no question of that.

But he was 14 years old...and the collaborating was done by the man who protected him as his adopted Godson and the man assisted in identifying Jewish property to confiscate in Axis Hungary.

He accompanied the man on the man’s duties in this.

It’s nothing to be proud of but that alone is not prooof he “helped exterminate his own people” at aged 14.

I know Coulter has spoken of this and Beck and I have read the Kroft interview. If you have more proof I’d like to educate myself and stand corrected.

a 14 year old Jewish boy trying to survive in the grips of the Nazi genocide machine is a pretty tough environment to hold him to...and I hate the guy...I wish he would simply pass on ...he’s done enough damage here...he and Armand Hammer can compare notes on nation manipulating in the aftrlife

Obama, Soros and their kind of anti-semites are flirting with worldwide war, death and destruction.

There are only about 12 million Jews left in the entire world.

America, often alone, has safeguarded Israel and her 6 million Jews against a billion bloodthirsty muslim crazies and brainless non-muslims who support them.

Now, with a racist, American hating, closet muslim in the White House and people like Soros preaching antisemetism, the world’s Jews face the very real danger of a second holocaust.

But this time Jews will not go into the gas chambers meekly and quietly - at least not the Israelis.
If Israel is pushed to the point of annihilation you can bet the bombs will fly and the holocaust we see will be nuclear.

If inciting riot is a crime, if racketeering is a crime, if participating in a coup d’etat as a mercenary is a crime, how is Soros not serving time for fomenting revolutions that have often turned violent? And his stated intentions aren’t just overseas, they’re right here in the country of his current residence.

Beck has said he forgives the 14 year old boy but he can’t forgive the 80 year old man who has no remorse and calls that time, “the happiest of his life”.

Palin is in trouble for using “blood libel”, but Soros can say “stumbling block”? Has he maybe looked that up in a Bible, there is a Strongs Concordance somewhere he could see that phrase.

“I just don’t understand this-isn’t he Jewish? What is wrong with him???? This guy is mental. For someone who is Jewish to be such an antisemite.....”

just because someone’s parents were Jewish, or Catholic, or Baptist or Amish DOES NOT mean that he is a practicing “fill in the blank”.

I am SICK SICK SICK of people automatically labeling someone “Jewish” (Including Lefty non-believing people who self label themselves Jewish) just because their ancestors were Jews. Judaism is a RELIGION not an ethnic group!

G-d bless my fellow Jews who live in Israel; they are in serious peril... and I fear the rest of us will be too.

Recall that Soros was a Nazi goul who scavenged valuables from Jews killed by the Nazi gas chambers. To this day there is no remorse. To him it seems it was just opportunity. Then recall that the Nazis were buddy buddy with the muslims in WWII. The dots are still connected. My bewilderment is how Soros could gain USA citizenship and is still retaining it.

Well, I see Soros’ point. If Israel hadn’t sent those sharks to terrorize the beaches of Egypt earlier this year, this whole uprising would never have happened. /s

It's Jewish Halakhic law that defines "Jewish" that way.

“He’s a Psychopath.”

This quote from Soros sounds like something from Ted Kazinsky. Makes not sense to anyone but him.

Someone earlier talked about the Golden Calf — Soros is the Golden Bull____!

Well said- I so agree and it is really disturbing. I grieve for our country....

I interpret it as meaning until his days on earth are over...ie dead, and he burns in hell.

““He’s a Psychopath.”
-This quote from Soros sounds like something from Ted Kazinsky. Makes not sense to anyone but him.”

—I have no doubt that if they did a brain scan on him, it would be revealed. Some of the main symptoms:

* deceitfulness, repeated lying, use of aliases, or manipulating others for personal profit or pleasure
* reckless disregard for safety of self or others
* lack of remorse, indifferent to or rationalizing having hurt, mistreated, or stolen from another

That would be "to the very end," which is a phrase I've often heard. "To the very hand" is a new one to me.

Egypt has been a military dictatorship since 1952. The Muslim Brotherhood opposed it because of its secular character. MB was outlawed in 1954. And this is Israel’s fault how???
