Soros: The Wizard is Out of the Closet

I wrote a post a while back entitled the Soros: The Wizard of Obama? where I pointed out that Soros is pulling the strings of the Obama puppet and his Obamanation. Well, he is no longer the wizard hiding beyond a secret little chamber. Bloomberg.com openly reports to the public:

Three blocks from the White House, on the 10th floor of a sleek glass building, young workers pound at computers, with giant flat-screen TVs overhead. It has the look and feel of a high-tech startup.

In many ways it is. The product is ideas.

Thanks in part to funding from benefactors such as billionaire George Soros, the Center for American Progress has become in just five years an intellectual wellspring for Democratic policy proposals, including many that are shaping the agenda of the new Obama administration. 

Congratulations America! You got yourself a corrupt and evil shadow government that is now ready to bask in the sunlight. If you read the article, you will notice that it treats the organization, CAP, as the progressive version of the the conservative Heritage Foundation. In typical liberal moral equivalence, the writer believes they are both red shiny apples. But I say that CAP isn't even an orange, because it isn't even HEALTHY food.

For example, try one simple test. Do a search on the Heritage Foundation's web site for "Constitution". Wow! Look at all these resources for studying the Constitution: Search Results from HF. I even ordered their guide to the Constitution last week. What a beautiful book! I will save it for my daughter when she is old enough to read it.

Now do that same search at the CAP: Search results from CAP. And what do you find? A LONG LONG list of liberal anti-American CARTOONS.

This tells you a lot. Soros thinks that the Constitution is a capricious little irritant that ought to be abrogated. Don't believe it?  Think again. Below is a great article on Soros and a link to a speech he gave last week.

In a speech last week at MIT, hedge-fund manager George Soros openly advocated abrogating the U.S. Constitution to pursue his recommended remedies for the worldwide financial crisis.

FDR used similar arguments to arrogate unprecedented power, bursting all constitutional constraints in the process. This power was then wielded to turn a difficult recession and stock-market crash into a fifteen-year depression as world trade was devastated by protectionist tariffs, tailors were put on trial for charging too little for pressing a pair of pants, crops were forcibly plowed under in vain attempts to raise farm prices as millions went hungry, and the vitiated free market was rendered helpless to correct its own errors. Despite all evidence to the contrary, many historians and most educators since have promulgated the myth that FDR saved the country from the depredations of unfettered capitalism.

History is repeating itself with accelerating fury. - Bill Frezza, RealClearMarkets

Make no mistake about it THIS is what we have elected into office. THIS is the America we have chosen. Not only is Obama's citizenship highly questionable, we have elected this tyrant of a man who uses his money and influence to arrogantly BUY  and swindle an entire nation that isn't even his homeland.

Revive the Obamazombies!

Nations grown corrupt
Love bondage more than liberty;
Bondage with ease than strenuous liberty.
~John Milton

I can't keep up with all the lies and dissimulations of the Obama cabal, so I will just have to do my best. As I pointed out in my previous post regarding Robert Malley and his International Crisis Organization, the Obama administration is, behind closed doors and with deliberate secrecy, spending quality time with Hamas:

Hamas is claiming close and ongoing ties with America's upcoming Obama Administration, according to a report published Tuesday in the Arabic-language newspaper Al-Hayat. The relationship was kept under wraps until after the U.S. elections so as not to harm Obama’s election prospects. The U.S. has classified Hamas a terrorist organization. -  IsraelNN.com

Now, as usual, most Obama supporters will just shrug their shoulders at this, because the American public has been conditioned to believe that all "conflicts" are equal and that, in order to resolve conflict, both sides need to be brought together, talk and and eventually come to some resolution. Now if one side were a group of wild dogs and the other side were my pet Thai Ridgeback dog, I certainly would protest against such a meeting. In kind, I protest any kind of negotiation with murderers. But as I said in my previous post, Obama and the people behind him such as Malley and Soros and the UN itself have no intentions of preserving Israel, or the U.S. for that matter, as we know it. Their agenda of compromise and conversation is a smokescreen for the eventual collapse of the Western concepts of individualism and freedom. That collapse, to the American Zombie mind will simply look like progress, because that is how the U.N. will spin it: Change you can believe in.

Yes, we have become a culture that accepts lies, dissimulation, manipulation and moral equivalence.  That is why the Obama campaign can say, on one hand that "Rob Malley has, like hundreds of other experts, provided informal advice to the campaign in the past.  He has no formal role in the campaign. He will not play any role in the future." (IsraelNN.com) and on the other hand, goes ahead and dispatches Malley to Egypt . People who are paying attention see how much Obama is a lying thief. People who don't pay attention just get confused and give up trying to understand what is going on. Confusion is a tool for power. When a leader confuses the public and does it with an air or position of authority, the public will generally let him off, free to do as he sees fit. "Ah, we don't understand", we zombies say. "Just fix it, Obama!".

Obama also says that his administration will be transparent, through the use of technology:

If Obama gets his way, all Americans will have broadband Internet access, whether they live in big cities or remote villages. Online life will be safer, with better defenses against cybercriminals. And there will be greater access to government, with online services to let anyone question members of the president's Cabinet or track every dime of the federal budget. - Boston.com

The appearance of transparency is just that: an appearance. That will further sink the American people into a coma even deeper than the one they already suffer. Trust me, if you drink soy milk long enough, you forget what real milk tastes like and, eventually, you don't miss it. This is why those who are not zombified must take on the responsibility of keeping America awake. Bondage, as Milton says, is easy. Freedom, as we all know, is not. Communicate, write, create: do SOMETHING, and be the freedom that you stand for and remind others to do the same.  Obama cannot continue to lie to people who are fully awake and can see the so-called wizard behind the Oz.

UPDATE: Just in, more lies from Obamanation: Obama likely to escape campaign audit

Islamic Submission: Global Government, Robert Malley and Earth Citizens

"Change the values and take a different course of living, then evolution will continue. Do not forget that from now on you have to be Earth citizens."  Robert Muller speaking at the Global Citizenship 2000 Youth Congress

There has been much talk on net regarding Obama's "senior foreign affairs advisor" Robert Malley. Malley has never been, based on his writings, shy about offering critique of Israel and its policies in relation to Hamas and the Palestinian state, however he continually asserts that his criticism is always constructive criticism.  He points at AIPAC as being far-right,"neocon" and fascist in its policies regarding Israel, and so has been involved in the creation of a new left pro-Israel lobby, J-Street.  J-Street is to AIPAC as Obama is to Bush. Nothing in the world is an accident.

So Malley feigns to be an objective and unbiased observer in the conflicts in the Middle East, and he appears to treat Israel and Hamas as if one were apples and other oranges, with neither fruit getting along in the fruit bowl.  In other words, he employs moral equivalence and the appearance of impartiality in order to persuade his readers to his point of view, a point of view that is nothing less than the destruction of Israel, Zionism and American moral ties to both. Robert Malley, if he is not an anti-Semite, is a globalist looking forward to the eradication of both national and cultural identities and self-defense of these identities. Malley is an "Earth citizen", so he doesn't care a wit about citizens of anywhere else.

Apparently,  Malley believes that the U.S. broad-brushes murderers and rabid anti-Semites and that we do not analyze our enemies or understand them enough. This, he claims, is why we will ultimately fail before our enemies.

ON THE third anniversary of the US invasion in Iraq, the United States is still fighting an enemy it barely knows. Washington relies on crude, broad-brush identifications -- Saddamists, Islamofascists, and the like. Rather than analyze the armed opposition's strategy and objectives, it assumes them. Rather than listen to what the insurgents say, it dismisses it. All of which is mystifying and, of far greater importance, self-defeating. - The Enemy We Hardly Know

Oh really? We don't know the enemy? Where do I begin here. Let's just take a look at the "enemy", the one we don't understand. I guess we could start with the assertion that Hamas is a radical Islamic organization hell bent on the destruction of Israel and America in order to establish Islam throughout the world. To gain familiarity with its principles, one need go no further than the Hamas Charter:

That Hamas is an Islamic organization is decidedly true, based on Articles 1,2 and 3:

"The Islamic Resistance Movement draws its guidelines from Islam;
derives from it its thinking, interpretations and views about existence, life and humanity;
refers back to it for its conduct; and is inspired by it in whatever step it takes."  - Article 1

and,

"The basic structure of the Islamic Resistance Movement consists of Muslims who are devoted to Allah and worship Him verily [as it is written]: “I have created Man and Devil for the purpose of their worship” [of Allah]. Those Muslims are cognizant of their duty towards themselves, their families and country and they have been relying on Allah for all that. They have raised the banner of Jihad in the face of the oppressors in order to extricate the country and the people from the [oppressors’] desecration, filth and evil."

Hamas' primary intention - one that it shares with Iran - is to wipe Israel and all Jews off the face of the map:

"Israel will rise and will remain erect until Islam eliminates it as it had eliminated its predecessors."

"our struggle against the Jews is extremely wide-ranging and grave, so much so that it will need all the loyal efforts we can wield, to be followed by further steps and reinforced by successive battalions from the multifarious Arab and Islamic world, until the enemies are defeated and Allah’s victory prevails."

"The prophet, prayer and peace be upon him, said: The time will not come until Muslims will fight the Jews (and kill them); until the Jews hide behind rocks and trees, which will cry: O Muslim! there is a Jew hiding behind me, come on and kill him! This will not apply to the Gharqad, which is a Jewish tree (cited by Bukhari and Muslim)."

"We cannot fail to remind every Muslim that when the Jews occupied Holy Jerusalem in 1967 and stood at the doorstep of the Blessed Aqsa Mosque, they shouted with joy: “Muhammad is dead, he left daughters behind.” Israel, by virtue of its being Jewish and of having a Jewish population, defies Islam and the Muslims. "

 

Hamas has no intention of creating, let alone keeping peace between Palestine and Israel or the "unbelievers". Even worse, it regards peace talks as simply a waste of time, as indicated in Article 13:

[Peace] initiatives, the so-called peaceful solutions, and the international conferences to resolve the Palestinian problem, are all contrary to the beliefs of the Islamic Resistance Movement. For renouncing any part of Palestine means renouncing part of the religion; ...There is no solution to the Palestinian problem except by Jihad. The initiatives, proposals and International Conferences are but a waste of time, an exercise in futility. - Article 13.

So in Hamas we have, on one hand, a worldwide radical Islamic organization that will stop at nothing to destroy the Jews and all other unbelievers in the world. On the other  hand, we have our so-called "expert" on Middle East affairs, Robert Malley, who, in feigning to be an objective observer of his subject matter, is in fact, an implicit supporter and apologizer of terrorism and the terrorist entity, Hamas.  He has helped to create J Street which asserts that it wants to help create two states: Palestinian and Israel, which is laughable considering that Hamas has no intentions of sharing the world with Jews at all. J Street also rejects any military reaction towards Iran. Well, hope that works out for Israel if Iran points the bomb directly facing them.  Seriously, WHO exactly is not listening to our enemies here?

Now why would Malley really take the absurd position that he does, a position that denies a small country the right to self defense in the face of rabid enemies intent on its destruction?  The answer is pretty simple, if one looks the organization for which he works so laboriously namely, the International Crisis group.  ICG's general mission "to prevent conflict worldwide", and it is a mission that is in accord with the mission of the United Nations itself, in regards to establishing world peace and the end of national sovereignty of nations.  In other words, ICG is in the service of creating the eventual "One World Government". 

Now ICG is a group funded by billionaire George Soros.  Yes, him again. Now what does Soros think about Israel? Well, he does not believe that the U.S. should support the Israeli government if support means defending Israel against groups who want to destroy it. Better to be destroyed and preserve peace, than to fight back and destroy peace.

The Bush administration is once again in the process of committing a major policy blunder in the Middle East, one that is liable to have disastrous consequences and is not receiving the attention it should. This time it concerns the Israeli–Palestinian relationship. The Bush administration is actively supporting the Israeli government in its refusal to recognize a Palestinian unity government that includes Hamas, which the US State Department considers a terrorist organization. This precludes any progress toward a peace settlement at a time when progress on the Palestinian problem could help avert a conflagration in the greater Middle East... Israel, with the strong backing of the United States, refused to recognize the democratically elected Hamas government and withheld payment of the millions in taxes collected by the Israelis on its behalf. This caused great economic hardship and undermined the ability of the government to function. But it did not reduce popular support for Hamas among Palestinians, and it reinforced the position of Islamic and other extremists who oppose negotiations with Israel. The situation deteriorated to the point where Palestine no longer had an authority with whom it would have been possible for Israel to negotiate. - On Israel, America and AIPAC

Soros' view is entirely compatible with Malley's.  The above quote is take from an article that also addresses attacks upon critics of AIPAC. He complains that the Jewish lobby is downright fascist in its suppression of criticism and its power of American politicians. Soros wants us to believe that his criticisms on Israeli and Bush policies are actually in the interest of Israel and that it is the corrupt AIPAC that is actually going to cause the potential destruction of Israel. Soros, like Obama, wants to negotiate with terrorists, with murderers and fanatics, and he wants to do so regardless of who they are and what they say they intend to do.  That Soros actually thinks his position is for the good of Israel, if it were not so vile, would be laughable.

So Soros is on the board of the International Crisis Group. Also sitting proudly on the board is former United States National Security Advisor to President Jimmy Carter, Zbigniew Brzezinski, who shares the same perspective on AIPAC as Soros:

Mr Brzezinski said "it's not unique to the Jewish community – but there is a McCarthyite tendency among some people in the Jewish community", referring to the Republican senator who led the anti-Communist witch hunt in the 1950s.

"They operate not by arguing but by slandering, vilifying, demonizing. They very promptly wheel out anti-Semitism. There is an element of paranoia in this inclination to view any serious attempt at a compromised peace as somehow directed against Israel." Telegraph

Now, whether or not these men are actually anti-Semitics, can neither be known nor proven either way. What is clear however is that they are, in accordance with the U.N.'s mission for global peace (slavery), supporting the destruction of national identity and national defense, in the case of both Israel and the U.S.  Or, if they are not supporting the destruction of it, they are supporting its submission to it, to a new world order.

Again, that word "submission", which is in fact the meaning of the word Islam.

Soros: More than You Ever Want to Know

RedGirlRising put together this great list of articles on Soros. I haven't gone through them all yet, but I will.

 

Seen here is George Soros in the front row on the Vice Presidential debate. This is the face she had to look at while debating JoeBi. No wonder she looked at the camera so much - I’d rather look at kid picking their nose than that. (American Girl has a real issue with child nose-pickers.)

No wonder Gov. Palin was saying her prayers pre-debate.

If you’d like to learn why American Girl, conservatives, Republicans, PUMAs, and millions of others take issue with Soros, check out these links:

Soros: The Wizard of Obama?

 

"The main enemy of the open society, I believe, is no longer the communist but the capitalist threat." - George Soros

 

There is something about enormous wealth coupled to a gullible, idealistic and obsessive mind that makes for a very dangerous creature indeed.

Case in point: George Soros.

He is a powerful man in America today but is also the most secretive. Most people don't know he exists. Crooks always work in the middle of the night.

"Soros may be the biggest political fat cat of all time. Convicted in France of insider trading, Soros specializes in weakening or collapsing the currencies of entire nations for his own selfish interests. He is known as the man who broke the Bank of England. His power is such that his statements alone can cause currencies to go up or down. Other people suffer so he can get rich...
The media consistently ignore the fact that this so-called "philanthropist" has had several brushes with the law as he has laid siege to national economies and currencies. Hard-working U.S. businessmen understand how Soros has made his money. In protesting a Soros appearance hosted by the University of Toledo, Edwin J. Nagle III, president and CEO of the Nagle Companies, highlighted "the immoral and unethical means by which he achieved his wealth." He added, "I certainly didn't see included in his bio the stories on how he collapsed whole country's currencies for his own self interests so that many may suffer." - Cliff Kindkaid, 2004

I contend it is solely because of his wealth and his egomaniacally obsession to use and manipulate others to damage the United States in particular, and transform the world in general, that he has any position on the world stage. He is no wise man. He has attached himself to Karl Popper, the 20th century. philosopher and his notions of an "open society", which are no less idealistic than his perception of and criticism against Plato's idealism (Poppers understanding of Plato is a joke). Anyway, like a good thief, Soros  hides behind this philosophical fluff, using it to justify his hundreds of left-wing organizations such as moveon.org, Democracy Alliance and Daily Kos.

When trying to navigate through the myriad foundations and organizations supported by Soros, it's quite easy to get lost. At present, the keyword which all of them have in common is open society. Accessing the Soros homepage on the web, you immediately come across the conceptual framework by which Soros operates his open society activities: "The concept of [the] open society is based on the recognition that people act on imperfect knowledge and nobody is in possession of the ultimate truth." (see also George Soros The Open Society Reconsidered ) Sounds quite impressive. What is equally impressive are all the reports from the different parts of the world about what the various Soros foundations are doing. They all contain the same components, though worded differently and presented according to the political environment they operate in. The bulk of Soros' activities are centered around education, libraries, publishing, and media. Various scholarships are offered to students in order to give them, in theory, access to resources. " John Horvath, The Soros Network

 

George, in order to finally achieve is Popperian utopia began his Open Society Fund in 1929:

"So I called the foundation the Open Society Fund, and I defined its objectives as opening up closed societies, making open societies more viable, and promoting a critical mode of thinking. "

He starts with a completely idiotic bifurcation of possible societies in the world: some are open and some are closed:

"because in a closed society there is only one blueprint, which is imposed on society, whereas in an open society each citizen is not only allowed but required to think for himself"

Something to appeal to the hippies, no less. In any case, what in the world does that mean? What does "thinking for oneself" mean here? Does it mean individuals in an open society make their own laws? Is this laissez-faire socialism? Anarchy?  Really, one cannot possibly know. It is simply what Soros wants to be at any given time. Well then again one thing is true: Soros' open society is simply the negation of all societies: it wants to tear down  Michael Savage's proverbial "borders, language and culture". Soros describes this himself, and as usual his speech rings as hollow as a cheap chocolate Easter Egg that no one will eat:

"Societies derive their cohesion from shared values. These values are rooted in culture, religion, history, and tradition. When a society does not have boundaries, where are the shared values to be found? I believe there is only one possible source: the concept of the open society itself." - Soros

Absolutely meaningless in every practical sense.

After Soros concludes that the problem of communism in the world has decreased, he became  bored, so he invents a new enemy, namely  free-market capitalism. No wait. First it was Bush, then free-market capitalism:

George Soros, one of the world's wealthiest financiers and philanthropists, has declared that getting George Bush out of the White House has become the "central focus" of his life, and he has put more than $15m (£9m) of his own money where his mouth is.

Mr Soros argues that the Bush White House is guided by a "supremacist ideology" that is leading it to abuse US power in its dealings with the rest of the world, and creating a state of permanent warfare.  - Julian Borger 

You see, people like Soros require there to be an enemy. It is the only way they feel they can define themselves, in terms of something to fight against.  They are never for anything, which is why these weeds can only grow in climates of political discontent. And if there is no discontent, they will convince people that they are discontented (Obama's race card). This is why the "open society" concept is so appealing to him. Fundamentally, the notion of an open society, is an idea, nothing more and nothing less. In fact, it is very similar to Barack Obama's notion of hope and all of his promises he has made to his supporters. Barack too, believes that all people should have an equal say in the open society, which is why he has promised to include ACORN in the planning of his administration. Just check out the beginning of this video of Obama speaking to ACORN here:

 

Okay, and here comes Soros' take on the Obamanian concept of "Change". Soros uses the phrase "Open to improvement". This is Sorospeak for "open to doing what Soros wants". It can also mean that "living Constitution" that you always hear about from the left. Read this excerpt below. If you are fluent in bullshit, you will grasp how he says absolutely nothing, but invisions some kind of twisted society in an alternate realm where people "debate" each other about their values and regard what they believe in as matters of debate and choice (I wonder if he includes homosexuality as a matter of choice? - NOT).

 

I envisage the open society as a society open to improvement. We start with the recognition of our own fallibility, which extends not only to our mental constructs but also to our institutions. What is imperfect can be improved, by a process of trial and error. The open society not only allows this process but actually encourages it, by insisting on freedom of expression and protecting dissent. The open society offers a vista of limitless progress. In this respect it has an affinity with the scientific method. But science has at its disposal objective criteria -- namely the facts by which the process may be judged. Unfortunately, in human affairs the facts do not provide reliable criteria of truth, yet we need some generally agreed-upon standards by which the process of trial and error can be judged. All cultures and religions offer such standards; the open society cannot do without them. The innovation in an open society is that whereas most cultures and religions regard their own values as absolute, an open society, which is aware of many cultures and religions, must regard its own shared values as a matter of debate and choice. To make the debate possible, there must be general agreement on at least one point: that the open society is a desirable form of social organization. People must be free to think and act, subject only to limits imposed by the common interests. Where the limits are must also be determined by trial and error.

So this is the man who apparently gave financial support to Obama, jump starting him on his non stop trip to the White House:

In late 2006, George Soros, the British empire/Wall Street gatekeeper of the Left, vetted Senator Barack Obama's potential Presidential candidacy on behalf of financier oligarchs. Soros then introduced Obama to a selected financier group, and Obama soon afterwards announced he would seek the White House.

Soros's involvement with Obama's brief national political career had begun two years earlier with Soros fundraising for Obama's campaign for U.S. senate, and continued through the 2007 Presidential campaign launch with huge fundraising operations by Soros and his circle.  - Lyndon Larouche PAC

I can't help but wonder about this relationship between Obama and Soros. If the relationship is there, would it be just outright crazy to say that we may  be voting Soros into the Oval Office?
