Stephen Lendman ~ George Soros’ Predatory Worldview

steveLendmanHe’s a world class confidence man. He’s a multi-billionaire predatory investor.

He’s a new world order corporate pirate. He’s known for rogue investing. He’s made billions from human misery.

He cashes in irresponsibly. He’ll do anything for greater profits. He does so from imperial wars. He gains hugely from financial ones. He uses wealth to accumulate more of it.

In late April, the New York Review of Books headlined “The Future of Europe: An Interview with George Soros.” Der Spiegel correspondent Gregor Peter Schmitz conducted it.

Ukraine was discussed. Soros called Russia an “emerging…big geopolitical player…” EU nations have “a resurgent rival on (their) east,” he said.

Putin enjoys overwhelming popularity. It exceeds 80%. Soros ludicrously claimed he “lead(s) from a position of weakness.”

He lied saying he’s “repressive at home and aggressive abroad.” He irresponsibly blamed Bashar al-Assad for US-sponsored death squads’ use of chemical weapons.

Lies infested his commentary. They reveal his dark side. He ludicrously claimed US-manipulated Maidan violence erupted “spontaneous(ly).”

He urged Western unity “in response to Russian aggression in Ukraine.” He claims Obama represents responsible US leadership.

Putin is a master geopolitical strategist. Not according to Soros. He “woefully misjudged the situation,” he said. He turned truth on its head claiming it.

Ukrainians rebelled, he said. He ignored Washington-manipulated Maidan violence. US Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs Victoria Nuland was caught red-handed. More on this below.
