Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Soros bought favorable coverage of Iran deal and “Islamophobia” smears, aided anti-Israel groups

Aug 27, 2016 10:28 am By Robert Spencer

We have already learned that the hard-Left Soros-funded Ploughshares group paid venerable mainstream media outlets for favorable coverage of the Iran deal. Here is a good summary piece detailing other recent revelations: nearly $4 million to anti-Israel groups; $200,000 to the Center for American Politics (with more thereafter) for defamation of alleged “Islamophobes”; $650,000 for Black Lives Matter; and pressure on Obama to increase the number of Muslim migrants coming to the U.S., among whom will inevitably be an unknown number of jihadis.

This is an active campaign to destabilize and weaken the United States.

“The Bizarre Media Blackout Of Hacked George Soros Documents,” IBD, August 19, 2016:

Scandal: Leaked documents released a few days ago provide juicy insider details of how a fabulously rich businessman has been using his money to influence elections in Europe, underwrite an extremist group, target U.S. citizens who disagreed with him, dictate foreign policy, and try to sway a Supreme Court ruling, among other things. Pretty compelling stuff, right?

Not if it involves leftist billionaire George Soros. In this case, the mainstream press couldn’t care less.

On Saturday, a group called DC Leaks posted more than 2,500 documents going back to 2008 that it pilfered from Soros’ Open Society Foundations’ servers. Since then, the mainstream media have shown zero interest in this gold mine of information.

We couldn’t find a single story on the New York Times, CNN, Washington Post, CBS News or other major news sites that even noted the existence of these leaked documents, let alone reported on what’s in them.

Indeed, the only news organization that appears to be diligently sifting through all the documents is the conservative Daily Caller, which as a result has filed a series of eye-opening reports.

So what could possibly explain the mainstream media’s disinterest?

Is the problem that the material is too boring or inconsequential? Hardly.

As we noted in this space on Monday, the leaked documents show how Soros’ far-flung international organizations attempted to manipulate Europe’s 2014 elections. The “List of European Elections 2014 Projects” details over 90 Soros efforts he had under way that year.

The documents reveal that Soros has poured nearly $4 million into anti-Israel groups, with a goal of “challenging Israel’s racist and anti-democratic policies.”

Here at home, they show that Soros proposed paying the Center for American Politics $200,000 to conduct a smear campaign against conservative activists.

More recently, an October 2015 document came to light showing that Soros’ Open Society U.S. Programs had donated $650,000 to “invest in technical assistance and support for the groups at the core of the burgeoning #BlackLivesMatter movement.” Since then, several BLM protests have turned violent.

That same document details how this group successfully used its “extensive networks” to pressure the Obama administration into increasing the number of refugees it would take to 100,000, despite concerns that Islamic terrorists could use the refugee program to infiltrate the U.S….

    His group’s title “Ploughshares”, is comical in context.

    They’ll take Soros’s sawbucks and beat them into scimitars.

      A recent article in the Remnant outlines the ties between Soros and Pope Francis. Soros is the largest private landowner in Argentina. He bragged several years ago that he is the boss of the pope – due to his wealth and influence.

        Ahhh! The plot thickens! This makes total sense now, why the Pope is kowtowing to Islam.

    Obvious media, political parties, institutions of different kinds being paid to demonize Russia and to call innocent individual political parties and individuals racists.
    Mostly those daring to criticize islam and islamization. Never others.
    It is very hard to understand why anyone not being a muslim is doing so to innocent and friendly persons protecting their countries and the Civilized World. Not just being hard to understand, it is impossible to.

        many of us admire Putin because he puts the interests on Russians over others.His whole Ukraine strategy including the annexation of the Crimea was to protect the Russians already living there from the corrupt Ukrainian Government which had been influenced by the west to not only seek complete independence but to join the NATO block. this country sits right next to Russia and this certainly qualifies as being within the sphere of influence of Russia.
        He also stepped into syria to protect the Assad regime and fight ISIS because for 3 years now Obama and hillary have done nothing except support anti assad groups who have also joined with ISIS and al qaeda to fight assad.So steadfast is hillary an dobama in making sure ISIS wins over assad because that is also the goal of the muslijm brotherhood. We know Obama and hillary have done everything to support the muslim brotherhood whether it was in Libya or Egypt or syria or here in the US.

          Of course you have to believe everything that the russians claim to be true, in order to not laugh out loud at such claims….

          “many of us admire Putin because he puts the interests on Russians over others.”

          Are you serious? The way he is running Russia into the ground?

          “His whole Ukraine strategy including the annexation of the Crimea was to protect the Russians already living there from the corrupt Ukrainian Government which had been influenced by the west to not only seek complete independence but to join the NATO block.”

          *yawn*

          I’ve been hearing this Russian propaganda for years now. It’s still as false now as when it first emerged.

          “ this country sits right next to Russia and this certainly qualifies as being within the sphere of influence of Russia.”

          So Ukraine should have no saying whatsoever on how it conducts its affairs – it’s under the Russian sphere of influence and therefore Russia is entitled to bully Ukraine around. Is that it?

          Look, mate, the Ukrainians made their choice, which is the same as most (all?) former Warsaw pact nations: they chose the West over Russia. Their country, their choice. You’re trying to defend the indefensible.

          “He also stepped into syria to protect the Assad regime and fight ISIS”

          Before pulling back and telling Assad to come to terms with the rebels.

          “because for 3 years now Obama and hillary have done nothing except support anti assad groups who have also joined with ISIS and al qaeda to fight assad”

          Really? Because it really seemed that he simply had geopolitical interests in the area.

          “So steadfast is hillary an dobama in making sure ISIS wins over assad ”

          Not according to Khaled Khoja, the former President of the National Coalition for Syrian Revolutionary and Opposition Forces, who earlier this year accused the US of not wanting a regime change in Syria.

          “We know Obama and hillary have done everything to support the muslim brotherhood whether it was in Libya or Egypt or syria or here in the US.”

          Which is irrelevant to the point I made – that there’s no need to “demonize” Russia when Putin is doing such a smashing job on his own. Heck, you’re arguing for the Russian invasion of Ukraine – you’re proving my point.

    Ideological convergence? A “the ends justify the means” mindset? Maybe decision-makers in media are in his pocket?

    Off Topic about (Finance & Economy) — & alleged Racism.

    Obama Administration’s Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
    http://www.consumerfinance.gov/

    Here we go again.
    Prepare for another financial meltdown.
    The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau sent in undercover operatives — some white, some black in search of supporting a preconceived conclusion.
    The devil is in the details.
    Banks accused refusing to lend into specific areas of the city.

    http://www.npr.org/2016/08/26/491395126/mystery-shoppers-help-u-s-regulators-fight-racial-discrimination-at-banks

    NPR and the other ‘Enemedia’ will milk this alleged discrimination just as they did in the lead up to the housing financial collapse where banks were pressured to make unsound loans and attempted to cover their own butts with repackaging overprice junk to unwary pension fund victims leading to a super bubble.

    In Whose Interest?

    After DC Leaks posted over 2,500 docs from Soros’ Open Society Foundation, all #enemedia newspapers and #nets have done nothing to follow up. Nada. Zippo.

    NAZI collaborator Soros financed 90 programs to manipulate the 2014 elections in Europe.

    Soros gave $4 million to anti-Israel groups to counter “Israel’s racist and anti-democratic policies.”

    In October 2015 Soros’ Open Society U.S. Programs gave $650,000 to the violent #BlackLivesMatter movement.

    Soros’ Open Society convinced Obama to increase Muslim refugees to 100,000 ignoring concern that Jihadists will infiltrate the U.S.

    Soros used financial clout to sway SCOTUS justices to approve Obama’s effort to rewrite immigration law in U.S. v Texas.

    So far in 2016 Soros gave $7 million to Clinton Priorities USA super-PAC, and $25 million more for #Dem causes.

    Soros is trying to destroy the Counterjihad because it is telling the truth about supremacist political Islam. Soros wants to maintain the absurd Leftist propaganda that Islam is the ‘religion-of-peace-and-love’ so that the Muslim immigrants can continue to come in large numbers in order to destroy Western civilization and permit ‘Progressives’ or cultural Marxists to reorientate the world according to Marxism.

    The destruction of nationalism, patriotism, national feeling and national identity are the goals of Soros. He secretly despises Islam as much as he despises Europe. He uses stolen money to try to accomplish his goals. He actually believes he is some kind of reincarnated deity and has a mission to destroy all nationalities.

    Folks, now you see the NWO coming to past as predicted in the Bible scriptures ages ago. Don’t believe the Bible? At least get some education or facts to back your disbelief by reading the Gospels and Jesus’ prediction about the last days and the book of Revelation telling the events. Or listen to Jack Van Impe on TV and he will give you the truth. His web site is http://www.jvim.com. You who think this is the end are right. Better make sure of your relationship with God and Jesus Christ because without them you face an Armageddon which is the ultimate WWIII and destruction of this society. I’m only trying to help you folks and no I am not a religious nut!
