Aug. 9, 2008 (EIRNS)—Following his service to his British masters in the Balkan wars of 1990-91, George Soros convened a series of meetings inside Serbia, that were to launch the "Rose Revolution," the "Orange Revolution," and the series of phony democracy insurgencies designed to undermine nation-states and create a "ring around Russia" for a future British-inspired confrontation. One of the key operations run by Soros, as indicated in a LaRouche Political Action Committee press release, "LaRouche Denounces `Obama's Godfather' George Soros," was to topple Georgia President Eduard Shevardnadze, and bring in Mikhail Saakashvili, the Colombia University-trained project of Soros's "Open Society Institute."
From 1994 to 2004, Soros's various projects and subprojects of the Open Society Institute, including the Central Eurasian Project (CEP) and the Open Society Georgia Foundation (OSGF), spent at least $40 million to topple Shevardnaze.
Early in 2003, Soros began a full operation to activate the "democracy" shock troops for the takeover of Georgia. The Canadian daily Globe and Mail provided a vivid account in November 2003:
"Dateline Tbilisi—It was back in February that billionaire financier George Soros began laying the brickwork for the toppling of Georgian President Eduard Shevardnadze.
"That month, funds from his Open Society Institute sent a 31-year-old Tbilisi activist named Giga Bokeria to Serbia to meet with members of the Otpor (Resistance) movement and learn how they used street demonstrations to topple dictator Slobodan Milosevic. Then, in the summer, Mr. Soros's foundation paid for a return trip to Georgia by Otpor activists, who ran three-day courses teaching more than 1,000 students how to stage a peaceful revolution.
"Last weekend, the Liberty Institute that Mr. Bokeria helped found was instrumental in organizing the street protests that eventually forced Mr. Shevardnadze to sign his resignation papers.

From Lyndon H. LaRouche’s site.
“as indicated in a LaRouche Political Action Committee press release, “LaRouche Denounces `Obama’s Godfather’ George Soros,”
Using LaRouche as your authority is about on par with using Al Franken. Even if true, who could take it seriously.
LaRouche? Bwahaha! You mean that Democrat moonbat that fancies himself a second FDR?
Serbia isn't Goergia.
Soros succeeding in becoming influential in Serbia. Soros has failed in influencing Georgians and Saakahvili.
Your posts are spamming FR with misinformation.
Democracy = Mob Rule by Mobsters.. always in every iteration in every way..
So you are saying that toppling a Communist apparatchik was a bad thing?
I think you have the wrong URL...
And George Soros isnt commie puppet master?
What is a diference?
Ohm ywes, Soros got himself another war...
There seems to be a lot of information that suggests that Soros played a big role in Saakashvali's accension to the presidency. As to the validity of this information, I can't be sure.
I’m no fan of Soros but could you explain how he was involved in:
1. Russian controlled South Ossetians firing at targets in Georgia proper.
2. The decision by the Georgians to try to silence the South Ossetian attacks.
3. The Russian use of that counterattack as a pretext to invade Georgia and institute a virtual scorched earth policy?
This war was conceived not by George Soros, but by the Russian Dictator, Vladimir Putin.
