“[N]obody who has read a business magazine in the last few years can be unaware that these days there really are investors who not only move money in anticipation of a currency crisis, but actually do their best to trigger that crisis for fun and profit. These new actors on the scene do not yet have a standard name; my proposed term is ‘Soroi’.” Paul Krugman 1999

You can’t make this stuff up. You just can’t.

Billionaire speculator and vulture capitalist George Soros (family changed their name from Schwartz in 1936) has penned an Op Ed praising the outcome of the recent IMF serving color revolution in the Ukraine. For a man who famously hates anti-Semitism, it seems rather odd that he would be aligning himself with the rise of the neo-Nazi nationalist parties in the Ukraine. But then again, Soros (Schwartz) has always been more about the money than he was about his religious identity.

That’s probably because money is his religion.

Not only is Mr. Soros (chosen name means “designated successor” or “next in line” in Hungarian) busily rewriting the history of this bloody conflict in his new Op Ed, he’s actually serving as an apologist for the neo-Nazi’s brutal violence which ultimately brought down the elected government of the country and now is positioning itself to wipe out what they consider to be enemies of the true Ukrainian state; Jews and other leftists.

“This is Oleh Tyahnybok, he has claimed a “Moscow-Jewish mafia” rule Ukraine and that “Germans, Kikes and other scum” want to “take away our Ukrainian state.”

“This is their old logo, a Wolfsangel rune (on yellow armband), a common symbol for European neo-Nazi organizations. It was also the symbol of the Patriots of Ukraine, a paramilitary organisation Svoboda went hand in hand with until 2004.”

“a group of citizens armed with not much more than sticks and shields made of cardboard boxes” George Soros

During the early stages of the violence, at least 6 police officers were killed by Soros’ heroic violent thugs. Canyou imagine what the body count would have been in New York if 6 cops had been killed by Occupy Wall Street protesters? If they had been hurling firebombs at police lines?

This is the logo of the racist neo-Nazi party run by Oleh Tyahnybok.

See it anywhere in the protests? Look real hard now…

Al Jazeera has an interesting article about the rise of the ultra-nationalists on the march in Western Ukraine the other day. This is an 85 year old party of Nazi sympathizers who fought FOR Hitler back in the days when George Soros’ family was changing their name from Schwartz.

Some Jews, understandably fearing these developments, are advising their congregations to leave Kiev and the country altogether if possible.

Do you see the Confederate Flag hanging in this Ukrainian government building after the neo-Nazi’s took over? I do. What do you think that is all about?

Very little is being mentioned in the press or the White House about the Nazi nature of the fascist turn of events in the Ukraine right now. You have to look hard to find any remotely mainstream mentions of it, but they do exist.

Meanwhile, George Soros is helping the left feel better about focusing on, shall we say, more tangible aspects of this crisis:

… True to form, the EU under German leadership offered far too little and demanded far too much from Ukraine. Now, after the Ukrainian people’s commitment to closer ties with Europe fueled a successful popular insurrection, the EU, along with the International Monetary Fund, is putting together a multibillion-dollar rescue package to save the country from financial collapse…

… I established the Renaissance Foundation in Ukraine in 1990 – before the country achieved independence. The foundation did not participate in the recent uprising, but it did serve as a defender of those targeted by official repression. The foundation is now ready to support Ukrainians’ strongly felt desire to establish resilient democratic institutions (above all, an independent and professional judiciary). But Ukraine will need outside assistance that only the EU can provide: management expertise and access to markets…

… Ukraine would thus open its domestic market to goods manufactured or assembled by European companies’ wholly- or partly-owned subsidiaries, while the EU would increase market access for Ukrainian companies and help them integrate into global markets.

I hope and trust that Europe under German leadership will rise to the occasion. I have been arguing for several years that Germany should accept the responsibilities and liabilities of its dominant position in Europe.” George Soros

Is it ironic that Mr. Soros, a self-proclaimed life-long enemy of all things anti-Semitic, would back this neo-Nazi uprising in the Ukraine while calling for the German conquest of Europe or is he carefully positioning himself to “fit in” with the new fascist brown-shirt management of the country? Is he that stupid or that smart?

Either way, he’s clearly a Mammon worshiping opportunist looking to fill his pockets on the back of yet another tragic crisis and it doesn’t matter to him that Jews and leftists in general in Kiev are packing their bags and heading for the nearest border. When there’s blood in the water, the Soroi swarm. That’s just their nature.

UPDATE: True to form, first thing they do, the neoliberals are ready to push punitive IMF austerity adjustments on the people of the Ukraine, taking full advantage of the manufactured crisis.

After his nomination, Yatseniuk told parliament that Ukraine faced threats to its territorial integrity and promised to pursue European integration. He said: “Our country is on the brink of economic and political collapse …There is no other way out for us than to take extremely unpopular decisions” Guardian
