George Soros: Good or Evil?
NewsMax.com ^ | September 15, 2011 | Christopher Ruddy

Posted on 09/18/2011 12:11:32 PM PDT by venizelos

I recently received a chain email with the subject line “George Soros — This Is an Evil Man.”

...

After observing Soros for some years now, I have concluded he’s neither evil nor completely liberal. ...

...

Newsmax was early in identifying Soros as a political force, featuring him on the cover of our May 2004 magazine with the headline “George Soros’ Coup.” Our cover story detailed Soros’ influence in Eastern Europe, supporting emerging democracies after the fall of the Iron Curtain through his Open Society Foundations.

On the whole our feature gave a negative view of his activities there. But my own views about Soros’ involvement were tempered after our magazine was published and I visited Eastern Europe in 2006.

...

During my interactions with many of those struggling for freedom... Soros and his Open Society were constantly mentioned by those I spoke with as the main driver for supporting democracy movements. It is no secret that Soros has backed any number of “good guys” in the region...

...

Why, if Soros has been promoting pro-American good guys in former [Soviet] satellite nations, is he viewed as an anti-American bad guy at home?

...

It’s a good question and I am not sure I have the answer.

A thoughtful review of Soros’ politics does not suggest he ascribes to either socialism or Marxism.

...

Reading some of Soros’ writings and speeches, it is clear he too believes in free markets and sensible, reasonable government regulations. He has argued that much of the current economic crisis could have been avoided had the housing market never overheated, if U.S. banking regulatory agencies had simply acted to cool the bubble early on, as they might have in past decades. I have argued the same thing.

...

"I am guilty of fanning the flames against Soros. But I have very recently learned that he is a Jew, and so I will never do so again and asking God and all those I may have influenced to forgive me and forget whatever I may have written or said."

That has to be among the most ridiculous things I have ever read. Being a Jew does not give him an out for committing all the despicable acts he has.

"He destroyed that nation's economy! He wants wholesale abortions and population reduction through eugenics and euthanasia. He's trying to destroy the USA! He's evil!"

"Oh, wait, he's jewish. My bad."

Wake up and get real.

Soros is a Jew who, during his early teens, helped the Nazis. I have read that he delivered eviction notices to Jews who were being sent to death camps.

Really weak.

Judas was a Jew (according to most research) and Jesus Himself said it “would have been better for him never to have been born.”

George Soros is the epitome of Evil and a true son of Satan, who sold his soul to Satan at an early age for future riches. His last words will be the horror that awaits him as he joins his hero, Hitler.

Chrissy Ruddy is the epitome of STUPID. To stare evil in the face with all the facts of that same evil at your disposal and to be beguiled by that evil makes you STUPID.

What the hell does being Jewish have to do with it. What people are evil unless they are Jewish. This prick has made it his life’s mission to destroy the economies of other nations including the US.

“You are joking, right?? Do you know his history in WW2?”

Really, and he’s not even apologetic. I think he’s a psychopath.

>> I think he’s a psychopath.

He is. He’s almost a comic book super-villain. He destroys the economy of nations just to prove he can and then he justifies it by saying that its OK because the nation didn’t stop him.

He believes in depopulation to “sustainable” levels and that level should be determined by him. Now when Progressives speak of “depopulation”, they might mean genocide or mass murder, or they might just intend to make life so harsh and meaningless for people that they simply stop reproducing, or they mean to lower life expectancy and raise infant mortality enough to depopulate the planet. His reason is that we consume too much, yet he lives a lifestyle of comsumption where he consumes more than 100 of us “little people”. Regardless of which method he chooses, that is an evil philosophy and to hear someone say that he gets a free pass because he popped out of a Jewish womb is just insane.

"As Ruddy points out, Soros had a critical role in assuring that most of Eastern Europe transitioned from Communism to Western style democracy."

Yes, and John Kerry fought the communists in Vietnam. And Leon Trotsky fought against Stalin and Stalinism. So if your point is that Soros, Kerry and Trotsky have a lot in common, well, I guess I'd have to agree with that!

That is silliness.

Evil is evil. The man and his family turned fellow Jews over to the Nazis.

Hitler had a Jewish mother.

You don’t earn a pass because of feigned religion, skin color, past heroics, or anything else.

If he stops sinning, repents to God, then maybe God will forgive him, but all we have to go on is the massive damage and suffering he has caused in his long miserable life.

If Christopher Ruddy can’t see that Soros is evil, then NewMax needs to fold. Soros is one of, if not “the”, most evil people on the planet. He is a locust on economies. He should have been put in prison for his acts a long time ago. Shame on Ruddy, and anyone who can’t see Soros for what he is. His supports need to be jailed too. I don’t say that lightly. I wouldn’t cry one tear if someone took George Soros out tomorrow.
