Amid accusations of misleading the public, J-Street website reveals George Soros has donated money to organization.

US Jewish billionaire investor George Soros, who is known for his support of leftwing causes and occasional criticism of Israel, is a major J Street donor, it emerged on Friday.

Tax forms obtained by The Washington Times’ Eli Lake revealed that over the past three years, the Budapest-born Holocaust survivor and finance guru has given $750,000 to the organization.

...For years J Street had repeatedly denied having any connection with Soros.

This is old news but it is relevant in the context of J Street's recent attacks on the Emergency Committee for Israel along with "Christian Zionists." J Street's status as just another of George Soros' myriad tentacles therefore needs to be discussed as widely as possible.

This is helpful except to folks who have no idea what J Street is.

J Street pushes a kind of mushy semi-Zionism which endorses a two-state, American mediated partitioning of “Palestine” (historical Israel) into Jewish and non-Jewish pieces.

the Budapest-born Holocaust survivor

He survived on the dead bodies of fellow Jews and has no regrets. I would love to have him investigated to see just how far his long, skinny, demonic finger is stuck in the American Pie.

I've always thought of J Street as a false-flag operation. It *pretends* to promote pro-Israel positions, but upon closer examination, all the ideas buttress the Palestinian narrative of Israel-as-illegitimate-occupier.

Soros HATES Israel for reasons I'm sure he'll offer when he encounters Lucifer.

It isn’t even THAT good. It is Jew hating faux jew organization. It is an obama terrorist-loving leftist trash organization that wouldn’t know a JEW if one stepped up and smacked them in the face.

J Street owns up to Soros funding

Published 02:15 26.09.10

...”The contributions represent a third of the group’s revenue from U.S. sources during the period,” the Washington Times said. The paper also reported that a Hong Kong donor had provided as much as 50 percent of the organization’s revenue in the same period...

...the [J Street] spokesman also distorted an $811,697 donation from one donor in Hong Kong, Consolacion Esdicul, which Lake reported based on an obtained 990 IRS tax form.

The donation came from Pennsylvania-based liberal donor Bill Benter, they said.

Here’s how the conversation went: In listing J Street’s biggest donors, Ben-Ami identified Benter, telling me Benter had raised and given “at least $800,000 in the first two years...specifically [Benter] has secured roughly $800,000 in support from associates in the prior two years.” Dorf phrased it thusly: that the $800,000 was “raised and given by [him] and from associates including in Hong Kong.”

J Street later confirmed that $811,697 came in payments over the years all from one donor, Esdicul, solicited by Benter...

...J Street claims that she was solicited by Bill Benter, “a prominent J Street supporter from Pittsburgh.” Actually, Benter, who is not Jewish, is considered the world’s most successful bettor on horse races, and he hangs out at the Happy Valley horse track in Hong Kong...

...The mysterious large donor, Consolacion Esdicul, is better known as “Connie Esdicul” and even has a Facebook page. She appears to be a middle-aged woman who lives in the wealthy Happy Valley area of Hong Kong.

Ms.Esdicul has some unknown relationship with the New York hedge fund Black Rock and represented them at a charity event in HK. She presented a donation for Quality Camp to actor, Jackie Chan, from the Black Rock Advantage Fund in HK.

Black Rock has close ties to Soros ever since one of its founders, Keith Anderson, was appointed Chief Investment Officer of Soros Fund Management 2 years ago...

Soros served in the Nazi regime as a child. One could say he did not have much say in this as a child, but as an adult, when asked about it, he claimed to have no regret for what he did.

Given the fruits of his labor in the radical organizational controllers of the OWS crowd, getting Obama into power, and his involvement in the “arab spring”, I think it is safe to say Mr. Soros is sympathic to a globalist Nazi-ish cause. I think he wants genocide in the middle east.

He is a real problem for freedom and human life. I pray American Jews wake up fast. He and his socialist/fascist movement has to be exposed and stomped before he makes any more “progress.”

The mess of Germany is repeating itself! Powerful German Jews sympathic to international economic Marxism were co-opted by Hitler’s German socialist party. It’s happening again under slightly different guises - like “free Palistine!”

Centralized power and the mentality of socialists (based upon breaking one of the BIG TEN in coveting thy neighbors’ stuff) are not the friend of any group they target as ethnic or religious enemmies - and especially not for a successful Jewsih minority. Not ever; not under any rationalization.

Lucifer wouldn’t ask for any reasons, would he? He’d just bid Soros welcome to the infernal regions.
