What Soros Wanted, Obama Delivers

In January 2004, George Soros proclaimed to the world, “I have made rejection of the Bush doctrine the central project of my life.” To which he added, “America, under Bush, is a danger to the world. And I’m willing to put my money where my mouth is.” Soros then waged a nearly one-wallet war against Bush, put more than $25 million of his own cash into Kerry’s election bid and came out of the whole gambit with a tattered I-Voted-for-the-other-guy t-shirt.

In 2006, Soros declared in a depressive-mood pity party at the Council on Foreign Relations: “In the future, I’d very much like to get disengaged from politics. I’m interested in policy and not in politics.”

If only he had stayed depressed and kept to his better intention.

But no such luck would come America’s way.

Soros supported Barack Obama’s candidacy, telling Judy Woodruff in May 2008, “…Obama has the charisma and the vision to radically reorient America in the world.” When Woodruff queried Soros on whether it might be a concern that Obama lacked experience to lead in this dangerous time we live in, Soros responded, “…this emphasis on experience is way overdone…” …

…Now, it would seem that all Soros wanted, Barack Obama is delivering.

On “reorienting America in the world,” President Obama started doing that before he even won election with his people-of-the-world speech in Berlin:

The walls between old allies on either side of the Atlantic cannot stand. The walls between the countries with the most and those with the least cannot stand. The walls between races and tribes; natives and immigrants; Christian and Muslim and Jew cannot stand. These now are the walls we must tear down.

These words were surely music to Soros’ ears as he has been a lifelong Esperantist in the footsteps of his father. Soros is one of the world’s few native Esperanto speakers and was wont to quell his youthful depression in London’s famous speaker’s corner, proclaiming the virtues of creating the Esperantist version of the tower of Babel in the modern world. For readers who might never have heard of Esperanto, it was the invention of a 19th century Jewish doctor, who dreamed of a world free of nationality. He invented a trans-European language to push the ideology and Soros’ father, Tivadar was one of its leading proponents.

No American president thus far has professed more affinity for this absurd goal than Barack Obama. And he even has the preemptively awarded Nobel Peace Prize to prove it. Whether George Soros had anything to do with the award, we might never know, but it seems mighty darned fishy and definitely in keeping with both Soros’ international influence and his aim of “reorienting America in the world.”
