Israel’s War Against George Soros

By MAIRAV ZONSZEINJULY 17, 2017


JAFFA, Israel — As a Holocaust survivor, a successful financier who embraces free market capitalism and a philanthropist who champions liberal democracy, George Soros should be a darling of the Israeli establishment. But Mr. Soros has failed the only litmus test that seems to count for Israel’s current leadership: unconditional support for the government, despite its policies of occupation, discrimination and disregard for civil and human rights.

For years Mr. Soros largely avoided Israel-related philanthropy, but he became involved in 2008 when he contributed to J Street, a moderate pro-Israel, pro-peace lobbying group based in Washington, after it was founded. Through his Open Society Foundations, Mr. Soros also contributes to the Israeli human rights organization B’Tselem and the anti-occupation group Breaking the Silence, which have been subjected to a growing delegitimization campaign by the Israeli government.

No bias in this story, not even a smidgen.

Considering the Author of the piece writes for +972 Magazine, a left-wing news and opinion website that not only leans but is purposefully progressive and anti-israeli.

And doubly so when you see it's published hand-in-glove with the Slimes....

I'd have thought the whole "betraying your own to their deaths for money and safety" thing was a failed litmus test too, but what do I know?
