Soros urges EU to keep Poland and Hungary in democratic check
Euro News ^ | 06/01/2017 | Tokunbo Salako

George Soros has urged the European Union to continue pressing Poland and Hungary to preserve the rule of law.

Speaking at the Brussels Economic Forum, the American billionaire financier said he welcomed the EU’s recent tough words on both countries which critics accuse of being increasingly authoritarian.

Thousands of people have turned out for recent protest in support of Soros’ CEU university, which is under attack from the Hungarian government.

“I am full of admiration for the courageous way the Hungarian people have resisted the deception and corruption of the mafia state the Orban regime has established,” Soros said.

Germany (in the form of EU) pressuring Poland and Hungary... I don’t like the sound of that...

Next, someone will appease Merkel and assert that “peace in our time” is at hand.

Soros has urged the European Union to continue pressing Poland and Hungary to preserve the rule of law.

While here in America he is dedicated to overthrowing the rule of law and invests millions of dollars financing criminals and anarchists dedicated to breaking the law, creating chaos and overthrowing the government.

Poland and Hungary, two countries that got screwed over in the last century. Now they have solid borders and again they are being told what to do? Why can’t they be themselves?

“George Soros has urged the European Union to continue pressing Poland and Hungary to preserve the rule of law. “

To see how Poland and Hungary hear this, change that to:

“Castro has urged the Soviet Union to continue pressing Poland and Hungary to preserve the rule of law. “

The EU, the UN, NAFTA, the TPP, the Paris Climate Treaty, etc are all means to take away a nation’s right to make their own decisions.

The people of Hungary and Poland are far removed from the people in Brussels who are ordering those nations to take in their share of terrorists.

But this is what the global socialists want......nations without an identity. France and Germany today are not the charming places that they were 30 years ago. There is no “French” culture anymore because it is offensive. There is no “German” culture anymore because it is offensive.

If the people have no national identity, then they can be controlled easier.

The socialists fear nationalism. They created the term white nationalism to smear the idea of being proud of your nation.

In the end, Soros may essentially be a "front" for the Rothschild family.

Despite what is claimed in public, the Rothschild family right from the very start knew how to wield power by often staying in the background as much as possible. The reason is simple: they saw what happened to the Medici family in what is now modern Italy and its downfall, and wanted to make sure the Rothschild family continued to wield influence. As such, they carefully hid their wealth through multiple companies, a practice that continues to this day. Indeed, that makes it extremely difficult to measure the wealth of that family.

As such, the Rothschild family wields enormous influence over the Bilderberg Group, Club of Rome, Council on Foreign Relations, Davos Economic Forum, Tri-Lateral Commission, and so on. And they have the ear of every central bank on Earth and influence over every large private bank in the world, too. They're probably so powerful that they could play the board game of Risk literally for real; it's not completely far-fetched that the Rothschild family companies funded both sides in the European phases of World War I and World War II. And they may be powerful enough to bring down the United States if necessary.

That's why the Trump Administration pulling out of the Paris climate accord has to completely petrify the Rothschild family. It means the Globalists controlled by the Rothschilds can't embezzle the US treasury for funds anymore, and that could result in the downfall of the entire Rothschild fortune.

An antidote from Victor Davis Hanson:
For all the talk about Trump’s blunderbuss approach to foreign policy and his lack of cosmopolitan manners, few could rival the political and historical denseness of Angela Merkel’s recent broadside.

Consider:

1) No German politician with any historical sense should ever give a campaign-style rally speech accentuating German exceptionalism (“we have to fight for our destiny”) from a beer hall in Munich. Period.

2) When a country serially runs up a $60 billion plus yearly trade surplus with the U.S., based on an undervalued European-wide currency, which has subsidized its defense for over 70 years, and reluctantly twice in one century has entered European affairs to save its democracies from German aggressions, it may not be wise to allude to such a partner: “The times in which we could completely depend on others are, to a certain extent, over” and “We Europeans truly have to take our fate into our own hands.” I doubt whether either Germany’s generals, such as they are, or its Mercedes, Audi, and BMW executives would agree.

3) Ms. Merkel is upset at the Trump administration for not being willing to agree to a sizable percentage reduction in carbon emissions as negotiated on a supposedly voluntary basis. But given that Ms. Merkel’s own government itself has utterly reneged on a firm pledge to NATO to increase its defense expenditures to 2 percent of GDP, why would any American government enter into any deal, when its main promoter in the past could not demonstrate the sort of credible behavior that it now demands of others?

4) Merkel almost made the U.S. the moral equivalent of Putin’s Russia, in the sense of two powers that Germany will avoid and navigate in-between — apparently forgetting past German sins such as laundering Putin cabal money and the whole Gazprom consultancy, etc., as well as Putin’s recent digestion of former Soviet controlled lands, all in addition to the simple fact that the U.S. is a democracy and Putin’s Russia is an autocracy that does not abide by the rule of law. If Putin should wish safe spaces in Estonia for Russian-speakers, will Ms. Merkel and her forces rescue “Europe’s fate”?

5) Many independent-minded Eastern Europeans on matters of immigration from the Middle East, and bitter Southern Europeans on the matter of debt, will not find solace in Merkel’s use of the first person plural possessive “our,” as in “We Europeans truly have to take our fate into our own hands”. For millions that is a euphemism for German paws and claws — and they still find that sort of 20th century scary.
