Rabbis Spend $100K to Slam Beck for Slamming Soros
Pajamas Media ^ | January 27, 2011 | Roger L. Simon

Posted on 01/27/2011 2:23:59 PM PST by jazusamo

Four-hundred lib rabbis — the kind that give sanctimonious sermons about the environment at Westchester synagogues — have banded together to slam Glenn Beck with a $100K ad in the Wall Street Journal. According to the clerics, Beck has been unfairly attacking George Soros for collaborating with the Nazis in WWII when the billionaire was a fourteen-year old — something that Soros himself admits and, incredibly, doesn’t feel guilty about.

Steve Kroft of 60 Minutes interviewed Soros about his “youth.” Given the rabbis’ WSJ ad, it seems worth reprinting a transcript of a significant part of that interview here:

KROFT: (Voiceover) And you watched lots of people get shipped off to the death camps.

Mr. SOROS: Right. I was 14 years old. And I would say that that’s when my character was made.

KROFT: In what way?

Mr. SOROS: That one should think ahead. One should understand and–and anticipate events and when–when one is threatened. It was a tremendous threat of evil. I mean, it was a–a very personal experience of evil.

KROFT: My understanding is that you went out with this protector of yours who swore that you were his adopted godson.

Mr. SOROS: Yes. Yes.

KROFT: Went out, in fact, and helped in the confiscation of property from the Jews.

Mr. SOROS: Yes. That’s right. Yes.

KROFT: I mean, that’s–that sounds like an experience that would send lots of people to the psychiatric couch for many, many years. Was it difficult?

Mr. SOROS: Not–not at all. Not at all. Maybe as a child you don’t–you don’t see the connection. But it was–it created no–no problem at all.

KROFT: No feeling of guilt?

Mr. SOROS: No.

KROFT: For example that, ‘I’m Jewish and here I am, watching these people go. I could just as easily be there. I should be there.’ None of that?

Mr. SOROS: Well, of course I c–I could be on the other side or I could be the one from whom the thing is being taken away. But there was no sense that I shouldn’t be there, because that was–well, actually, in a funny way, it’s just like in markets–that if I weren’t there–of course, I wasn’t doing it, but somebody else would–would–would be taking it away anyhow. And it was the–whether I was there or not, I was only a spectator, the property was being taken away. So the–I had no role in taking away that property. So I had no sense of guilt.

Wow. All I can say is wow. That lack of guilt has always been astounding to me and an indication of who Soros really is. (Hello, rabbis.)

Nevertheless, these goody-goody rabbis think Beck is the problem, not Soros. They blame Beck for going over the top in his speech (where have we heard that before?), misusing the memory of the Holocaust, etc., but no word of the “misuse of speech” by Soros-funded MoveOn.org that famously made a video comparing George Bush to Hitler, something that has been scrubbed from the Internet but can be found here.

Talk about misusing the memory of the Holocaust. But I guess it wasn’t worth $100K.

What a sorry excuse for a human being Soros is and for these 400 Rabbis to stick up for him is pathetic.

There's some great comments after the article.

I absolutely agree and one of the comments state something like they’re Soros paid flunkies.

I’m guessing that $100,000 came to the Rabbis from Soros to defend Soros???

Chrissy Matthews has these guys on now. Chrissy is insane. He was talking Palin Vs. Bachmann and his head was about to explode. It was pure entertainment.

Cool.

A bunch of lib suicidal Yids just spent $100,000 in advertising for Beck.

Good on 'em.

Do it again!


Today is a good day to die.

Maybe they got their rabbi degree mail order.

Reminds me of the Roman Catholic “Nuns” who demand to be priests.

That is very important point. Just as there are a plethora of people in the world who call themselves ‘Reverend’ that have no religious training or experience the same is true with Rabbi.

There are many Jews and nonJews who call themselves Rabbi just to make a point. Most notable are the gays. For some reason there are many male and female homosexuals who use the term Rabbi, even though homosexuality is explicitly forbidden under any definition of Judaism. Usually, these people are devout atheists and only use the term Rabbi to further their agenda. There are examples of this in all religions.

For example, women are not allowed to lay teffilin. However, these female rabbis will make a point to lay teffilin even though they do not observe any other element of Judaism just in protest.

So yes, as in all religions, everyone calling himself/herself a yogi is not necessarily a yogi in the traditional sense and definition of the title.

The more polarity the better. It’s time Americans choose which side they’re on.

These rabbis are bought and paid for by Soros. If there is a real-life Dr. Evil, Soros is it.

They see their cashbox disappearing and cannot stand the thought of it happening.

It never ceases to amaze me the number of people who call themselves Jews and are certainly intelligent people align themselves with socialists who tried to exterminate them!

The same people support obama and the rest of the progressive pigs who not only hate Israel but are actively supporting the Is-Slime scum who would eliminate every Jew if they could.
They are the same people who hate our 2nd Amendment when had they been armed in Germany the outcome of their families might have been significantly better.

It is amazing how such large numbers have become the enemy within and George Soros is their puppet master.
