George Soros – Bush America needs de-Nazification
The New York Post recently (February 18, 2007) carried a virulently unpleasant article about billionaire financial wizard and extraordinarily generous philanthropist George Soros.
According to the New York Post, George Soros told “a group of reporters over lunch recently that America's future will be determined by the "extent it recognizes the mistake" that was made by waging war in Iraq - and purging those responsible. "America needs to follow the policies it has introduced in Germany," said the Hungarian-born hedge-fund billionaire, according to The New York Times. "We have to go through a certain de-Nazification process."”
Well, the New York Post was very upset about this comparison of Bush’s Amerika with Nazi Germany and the implications of “de-Nazification”. In post-1945 Germany the Allies instituted a de-Nazification protocol that meant the elimination of all Nazi symbols from public and banning all former Nazi officials from holding public office.
Indeed the de-Nazification process was so thorough that outstanding writer and humanitarian Gunter Grass, the Nobel Prize winning German novelist (“The Tin Drum” (Die Blechtrommel); Nobel Prize, 1999) was so ashamed of having been forced by conscription to join the SS in 1944 at the age of 17 that he kept it a secret until 2006 (see: HERE ).
However, rather than responding in a knee-jerk fashion like the Iraq War-complicit New York Post, let us ask (a) how qualified is George Soros to make such a comment and (b) what is the veracity of the comment?
(a) George Soros and his WW2 experience of Nazi tyranny in Hungary 1944-1945
George Soros is an investor, speculator, financial wizard, philanthropist and political activist. A graduate of the London School of Economics (LSE) and much inspired by philosopher Sir Karl Popper, George Soros was made famous by his speculation on the British pound and was known as the man “who broke the Bank of England”. George Soros has been a very generous benefactor (perhaps the world's greatest benefactor at several hundred million dollars annually before Bill and Melinda Gates commenced their extraordinary and continuing generosity). His philanthropy very sensibly targeted scholars and universities in the interests of the “open society”. He contributed significantly to the collapse of Communist dictatorships and the growth of "open societies" in his native Eastern Europe (see: HERE ).
Assimilated Jewish Hungarian George Soros (born 1930) lived through the terror of Hungarian fascism and Nazi German occupation of Hungary in 1944-1945. As a teenager in Nazi-occupied Hungary in 1944 he was sent by his father to warn other members of the Budapest Jewish community not to go to the railway station as ordered on pain of death by the Nazis since this meant deportation to death camps like Auschwitz. 0.2 million people out of a community of 0.7 million (including all but a dozen of my wider family) died when the Holocaust came to German-occupied Hungary in 1944-1945 (Martin Gilbert, "Atlas of the Holocaust", Michael Joseph, London, 1982).
With his terrifying World War 2 experience under Nazi German occupation, it is not surprising that George Soros is fervently opposed to the horrendous warmongering, violence, invasion and occupations of the Bush régime, continues to fund Democratic party opposition to Bush and is reportedly a benefactor MoveOn.org.
(b) Bush Amerika and Nazi Germany comparisons
Consider the following appalling litany of Bush Family crimes over three quarters of a century [Nazi German comparisons are in parentheses].
1. The Nazis were helped to power by George Bush's grandfather .
2. The excess deaths in post-1950 US Asian wars now total 19 million (as of February, 2007; see MWC News ) [Allied civilians losses in WW2 in Asia and Europe totalled 54 million, of which 4 million were due to the man-made Bengal Famine in British India] .
3. The “enemy”/”US military” death ratios in various US Asian wars have been: 1.0 million/33,651 = 29.7 (Korea, 1950-1953); 13.1 million /47,378 = 276.5 (Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, 1955-1975); 1.7 million /147 = 11,564.5 (Iraq, 1990-2003); 1.0 million/3144 = 318.0 (Iraq, 2003-2007); 2.2 million/367 = 5994.6 (Afghanistan, 2001-2007) [“enemy civilian”/ “Axis soldier” death ratio ordered by Hitler in 1944: 10; Nazi Ardeatine Caves Massacre, Italy, 1944: 10; actual death ratio in WW2 overall in all theatres: 9.2] (see MWC News ].
4. Violating democracy (twice violating presidential elections) [the Nazis were elected in 1933; after the Reichstag fire, antiterrorism hysteria and the Enabling Act the Third Reich Nazi dictatorship commenced ;
5. Jingoism with symbols (visual media propaganda conflating the flag, military symbolism and war with freedom, patriotism and virtue) [ditto Nazi Germany];
6. Jingoism with words (e.g. spin, slies or spin-based untruths, terror hysteria, War on Terror propaganda) [Nazi Goebbels excelled at this];
7. Terror legislation and other human and civil rights-violating enactments (US post-9/11 Patriotic Act legislation) [Nazi post-Reichstag terror legislation; eventual Enabling Act instituting Nazi dictatorship];
8. Abusive imprisonment without trial (tens of thousands imprisoned abusively in Iraq; hundreds ditto at Guantanmao Bay; thus Australian David Hicks was raped in US custody, tortured, kept in solitary confinement for huge periods, 5 years' abusive imprisonment in Guantanamo Bay without charge or trial);
9. Use of torture (e.g. Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo Bay and use of rendition to fly prisoners to torture centres in Uzbekhistan and Egypt) [horrendous Nazi imprisonment, torture and killing abuses];
10. Lies, slies (spin-based untruths), propaganda (e.g. the pre-war Iraq WMD lies) and bald denial of expert views (e.g. on horrendous deaths, the absence of Iraqi WMDs, terrorism exacerbation by the War on Terror invasions) [Goebbels propaganda inspiring the adjective Goebbelsian];
11. Abuse of its own citizens (0.12 million under-5 year old in American infants - mostly African American or Hispanic one suspects - have died avoidably under the Bush regime) [German Jews, Communists, Socialists, Homosexuals, Christian resisters, Jehova’s Witnesses, and disabled people imprisoned and murdered];
12. Mass pedocide (mass paedocide, mass infanticide) ( 1.2 million under-5 infant deaths in Bush I-Clinton-Bush II Sanctions War; 0.6 million under-5 infant deaths in Occupied Iraq i.e. 1.8 million Arab (Semitic) infant deaths, 90% avoidable; 1.8 million post-invasion Afghan under-5 infant deaths – 90% avoidable);[the Nazis killed 1.5 million Jewish children];
13. Annual under-5 infant death rate in 2005 (i.e. as a percentage: deaths for every 100 under-5 year old infants in 2005 in a particular country) was 6.7% (Occupied Afghanistan); 2.8% (Occupied Iraq); 5.5% (Occupied Somalia); 2.7% (Occupied Haiti); and 0.47% (Occupied Palestinian Territory) – as compared to 0.12% (Occupi-er Australia) and 0.12% (Occupi-er Israel) [the Nazis killed 1.5 million Jewish children];
14. Racist mass murder (2.7 million excess deaths in US-violated Iraq 1990-2007; 1.0 million excess deaths in post-invasion Occupied Iraq and 3.7 million refugees; 2.2 million post-invasion excess deaths in Occupied Afghanistan, 3.7 million refugees; post-invasion 0.3 million excess deaths in Israel-occupied Palestine (Genocide according to the UN Convention: is mass destruction with intent to destroy in whole or in part; the Bush's have destroyed 10% of the Iraqi population and displaced another 15% as refugees; ditto to the Afghan population; the US has backed the slow Palestinian Genocide) [Axis invasions, occupations, bombings and mass murder cost about 80 million lives; in World War 2 the Axis civilian deaths totalled 5.1 million as compared to Allied civilian losses in Europe and Asia totalling 54 million; US, British Empire, Axis and Soviet military losses totalled 0.29 million, 0.45 million, 5.9 million and 13.6 million, respectively] (see MWC News);
15. Entrenched anti-Arab anti-Semitism and Islamophobia backed up by mass murder of 3.2 million Muslims so far in Iraq and Afghanistan; invasion or occupation of defenceless, remote countries in whole or in part by US or US-backed forces in just the last few years involves Haiti, Somalia, Iraq, Palestine, Lebanon, Iraq, and Afghanistan with Iran under acute threat [entrenched anti-Aryan and anti-Jewish anti-Semitsm leading to the highly industrial mass murder of 6 million Jews];
16. US-Israeli State Terrorism (USIST) run by Bush-ites and Racist Zionists has been publicly adumbrating the nuclear bombing of Iran for a year or so (a Google Search for the obscene phrase “nuke Iran” now yields 213,000 URLs);
17. It is highly likely that elements of the US Government or its international surrogates were complicit in the 9/11 atrocity. Scholars for 9/11 Truth provide compelling scientific evidence for Bush-ite complicity in 9/11 e.g. it is physically impossible for WTC7, not hit by planes and not having fires requiring emergency services, to have collapsed in close to a free-fall time exactly matching free-fall kinetics at close to the acceleration due to gravity without explosive demolition (see: HERE ); Osama bin Laden expert Professor Bruce Lawrence of Duke University says that the notorious “9/11confession tape” is an outright fake by the US Government (see: HERE ) [the Reichstag Fire sufficed for the Nazis; they didn’t have to murder 3,000 innocent Germans to garner popular hysteria].
If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck it probably is a duck. George Soros is correct and has done decent America and the World a great favour by speaking out on Bush-ite Nazi comparisons and calling not only for the democratic removal of the Bush régime but a subsequent thorough de-Nazification of the Amerika involved in this horrendous, continuing Nazi-style abuse of human rights and Mass Avoidable Death (MAD).
Of course the lying, racist, holocaust-ignoring, Bush-ite Mainstream media, the Racist Zionists (RZs) and the Racist Religious Right Republican (R4) Bush-ites will ferociously deny the awful truth – and, like the Nazis, will use media domination to make the lies of commission and omission stick with a seriously gullible American electorate. However those denying or ignoring these realities are guilty of denying, ignoring and passively or actively supporting huge Nazi-style crimes against humanity. In short they are guilty of genocide denial, holocaust denial, denial of Mass Avoidable Death (MAD) - crimes of contemporary holocaust denial, genocide denial or MAD minimization that hopefully will be shortly criminalized in the EU if a current German legislative proposal gets up (see MWC News ).

Who is behind Human Rights Watch? (2004)
http://web.inter.nl.net/users/Paul.Treanor/HRW.html
Under President Clinton, Human Rights Watch was the most influential
pro-intervention lobby: its 'anti-atrocity crusade' helped drive the wars in
ex-Yugoslavia....
Mr. Soros established his first foundation, the Open Society Fund, in New
York in 1979 and his first Eastern European foundation in Hungary in 1984.
He now funds a network of foundations that operate in thirty-one countries
throughout Central and Eastern Europe, and the former Soviet Union, as well
as southern Africa, Haiti, Guatemala, Mongolia and the United States. These
foundations are dedicated to building and maintaining the infrastructure and
institutions of an open society. Mr. Soros has also founded other major
institutions, such as the Central European University and the International
Science Foundation. In 1994, the foundations in the network spent a total of
approximately $300 million; in 1995, $350 million; in 1996, $362 million;
and in 1997, $428 million. Giving for 1998 is expected to be maintained at
that level....

The new Gladio in action: Ukrainian postmodern coup completes testing of new template
By Jonathan Mowat
Online Journal Contributing Writer
http://onlinejournal.com/Special_Reports/031905Mowat-1/031905mowat-1.html
"Gene Sharp started out the seminar by saying 'Strategic nonviolent struggle
is all about political power.' And I thought, 'Boy is this guy speaking my
language,' that is what armed struggle is about."—Col. Robert Helvey
...In November 1989, Case Western Reserve in Cleveland, Ohio, under the aegis
of that university's "Program for Social Innovations in Global Management,"
began a series of conferences to review progress towards that strategic
objective, which was reported on in "Human Relations" in 1991. There, Dr.
Howard Perlmutter, a professor of "Social Architecture'' at the Wharton
School, and a follower of Dr. Emery, stressed that "rock video in Katmandu,"
was an appropriate image of how states with traditional cultures could be
destabilized, thereby creating the possibility of a "global civilization."
There are two requirements for such a transformation, he added, "building
internationally committed networks of international and locally committed
organizations,'' and "creating global events" through "the transformation of
a local event into one having virtually instantaneous international
implications through mass-media."...
Col. Helvey reports, in a January 29, 2001, interview with film producer
Steve York in Belgrade, that he first got involved in "strategic
nonviolence" upon seeing the failure of military approaches to toppling
dictators—especially in Myanmar, where he had been stationed as military
attaché—and seeing the potential of Sharp's alternative approach. According
to B. Raman, the former director of India's foreign intelligence agency,
RAW, in a December 2001 paper published by his institute entitled, "The
USA's National Endowment For Democracy (NED): An Update," Helvey "was an
officer of the Defence Intelligence Agency of the Pentagon, who had served
in Vietnam and, subsequently, as the US Defence Attache in Yangon, Myanmar
(1983 to 85), during which he clandestinely organised the Myanmarese
students to work behind Aung San Suu Kyi and in collaboration with Bo Mya's
Karen insurgent group. . . . He also trained in Hong Kong the student
leaders from Beijing in mass demonstration techniques which they were to
subsequently use in the Tiananmen Square incident of June 1989" and "is now
believed to be acting as an adviser to the Falun Gong, the religious sect of
China, in similar civil disobedience techniques." Col. Helvey nominally
retired from the army in 1991, but had been working with Albert Einstein and
Soros long before then...
A Civilian Revolution in Military Affairs
The emphasis on the use of new communication technologies to rapidly deploy
small groups, suggests what we are seeing is civilian application of
Secretary Donald Rumsfeld's "Revolution in Military Affairs" doctrine, which
depends on highly mobile small group deployments "enabled" by "real time"
intelligence and communications. Squads of soldiers taking over city blocks
with the aid of "intelligence helmet" video screens that give them an
instantaneous overview of their environment, constitute the military side.
Bands of youth converging on targeted intersections in constant dialogue on
cell phones constitute the doctrine's civilian application.
This parallel should not be surprising since the US military and National
Security Agency subsidized the development of the Internet, cellular phones,
and software platforms. From their inception, these technologies were
studied and experimented with in order to find the optimal use in a new kind
of warfare. The "revolution" in warfare that such new instruments permit has
been pushed to the extreme by several specialists in psychological warfare.
Although these military utopians have been working in high places (for
example the RAND Corporation) for a very long time, to a large extent they
only took over some of the most important command structures of the US
military apparatus with the victory of the neoconservatives in the Pentagon
of Donald Rumsfeld.
The new techniques of warfare include the use of both lethal (violent) and
nonlethal (nonviolent) tactics. Both ways are conducted using the same
philosophy, infrastructure, and modus operandi. It is what is known as
Cyberwar. For example, the tactic of swarming is a fundamental element in
both violent and nonviolent forms of warfare...
International Center on Nonviolent Conflicts
The International Center on Nonviolent Conflicts has been heavily involved
in the new Postmodern Coups, especially through its top figures, Dr. Peter Ackerman and Jack DuVall.
According to its website, the center "develops and encourages the use of civilian-based, nonmilitary strategies to establish and defend democracy and
human rights worldwide." It "provides assistance in the training and deployment of field advisors, to deepen the conceptual knowledge and practical skills of applying nonviolent strategies in conflicts throughout the world where progress toward democracy and human rights is possible."

George Soros, "humanitarian" is very worried about the decline in the world capitalist system and he wants to do something about it, now. He recently said: "I can already discern the makings of the final crisis.... Indigenous political movements are likely to arise that will seek to expropriate the multinational corporations and recapture the 'national' wealth."...

I would respond by saying that there is only so much you can put in an article. My article was simply about analyzing Jewish Hungarian American financier, philanthropist and political activist George Soros' expert assertion that Bush America requires a kind of "de-Nazification" (a proposition with which, I suspect, Liz Burbank would have considerable sympathy).
For detailed expositions of what George Soros thinks about Popperian science, speculation, "open societies" etc see:
Soros, G. (1987), The Alchemy of Finance (Simon & Schuster).
Soros, G (1990), Opening the Soviet System (Weidenfeld & Nicolson, London).
Soros, G. (1991), Underwriting Democracy (The Free Press, New York).
Soros, G., Wien, B. and Koenen, K. (1995), Soros on Soros. Staying Ahead of the Curve (Wiley, New York).
Would America recognizes the mistake that was made by waging war in Iraq?
America \'\'The People\'\' did recognize the blunder made by invadig Iraq,after they have tasted the stinge of economical collapse
But America \'\'the Fascist political system\'\' with their frieds of multi-national firms would recognize grabbing 80% of Iraqi Oil as a Victory
Even if Oil Victory has taken a huge toll of Iraqis and drag other victims like \'\'Civil Liberties and the Constitution and Human Rights\'\'
De-Nazification of Hitler was the duty of the world people and the armies of America and allies......who will take the mission of de-Nazificationof the solitary pole?
