I suspect the Jews do.[indent]After Beck used his radio show on Wednesday to accuse Soros of having helped "send the Jews" to "death camps," prominent Jewish leaders and Holocaust survivors condemned Beck's smears, with Anti-Defamation League national director Abraham H. Foxman calling them "completely inappropriate, offensive and over the top," as well as "unacceptable" and "horrific."
Nonetheless, Fox News reportedly continues to support Beck:
Fox stood by Mr. Beck. Joel Cheatwood, a senior vice president at Fox News, said in a statement Thursday afternoon that the "information regarding Mr. Soros's experiences growing up were taken directly from his writings and from interviews given by him to the media, and no negative opinion was offered as to his actions as a child."
In fact, Beck has distorted one of Soros' interviews in advancing his false allegation. Beck has claimed: "In an interview with Steve Kroft, Soros was asked if he felt guilt at all about taking the property from the Jews as a teenager. He responded, no." In fact, Soros told Kroft that he felt no guilt for "taking the property from from the Jews" because he had not done so:
[quoting the Steve Kroft interview; I'm sure you all have that memorized]
In Soros: The Life and Times of a Messianic Billionaire, Michael T. Kaufman detailed Soros's reaction during the interview, as well as Soros' actions in Nazi-occupied Hungary, noting that Soros "collaborated with no one":

While he was living with Baumbach as Sandor Kiss, an event occurred that more than a half a century later would become the basis of charges that George Soros, the international financier and billionaire, had somehow collaborated with the Nazi occupiers of his homeland and had exploited his fellow Jews. The issue was raised in a bizarre television profile and interview of Soros aired on the CBS television program 60 Minutes in December of 1998. In the segment, Steve Kroft, the interviewer, noted with prosecutorial gusto that George's father had "bribed a government official to swear that you were his godson," and added that this survival strategy "carried a heavy price tag." For, he continued, "as hundreds of thousands of Jews were being shipped off to the Nazi death camps, a thirteen-year-old George Soros accompanied his phony godfather on his rounds, confiscating property from the Jews." Visibly dumbfounded by the line of questioning, Soros could only manage to say that he had no role in the seizure of property and was merely a spectator. To underscore Kroft's point, film footage showed masses of Hungarian Jews being led away at gunpoint.
This is what actually happened. Shortly after George went to live with Baumbach, the man was assigned to take inventory on the vast estate of Mor Kornfeld, an extremely wealthy aristocrat of Jewish origin. The Kornfeld family had the wealth, wisdom, and connections to be able to leave some of its belongings behind in exchange for permission to make their way to Lisbon. Baumbach was ordered to go to the Kornfeld estate and inventory the artworks, furnishings, and other property. Rather than leave his "godson" behind in Budapest for three days, he took the boy with him. As Baumbach itemized the material, George walked around the grounds and spent time with Kornfeld's staff. It was his first visit to such a mansion, and the first time he rode a horse. He collaborated with no one and he paid attention to what he understood to be his primary responsibility: making sure that no one doubted that he was Sandor Kiss. Among his practical concerns was to make sure that no one saw him pee. [Page 37]
Polly want a cracker? Just keep parroting that MM propaganda it makes you look extremely intelligent. There were no smears, it was all fact and is heavily documented.
BECK CLAIM: Soros "attended the Fabian Socialist London School of Economics." Beck said, "In 1947, the Soros family relocated from Hungary to England, where George attended the Fabian Socialist London School of Economics."
REALITY: LSE is a mainstream university that many prominent conservatives have attended. While it is true that LSE was founded by four members of the Fabian Society 1895, Beck's suggestion that the school is a socialist indoctrination center is ridiculous. LSE alumni include:[list of famous conservatives]
Does Glenn really think you don't know what the London School of Economics is?

If I wanted to look extremely intelligent, I'd quote this.
His real name is George Schwartz. And his father who is a guy who spoke Esperanza fluently. Esperanza was developed in the '80s as the world's first international language. It was the language of peace, like the UN is the house of peace. And it was developed so everyone could speak the same language. And no one would have to [use] their old tribal language. We'd all have a new language. His father was big in Esperanza. And Soviets I think first embraced Esperanza then[, no,] they realized [these] guys are global government in a different way. The Chinese did the same. So did Hitler. They knew these guys were real dangerous, and they were dangerous to those guys. They're dangerous to everyone, because it's their way. So his father was big into Esperanza.
So delusianne, is Soros treating you well? I guess so.
Go check back to media matter and see what you should say about this...
“It is sort of a disease when you consider yourself some kind of god, the creator of everything, but I feel comfortable about it now since I began to live it out,” (The Independent, June 3, 1993 “THE BILLIONAIRE WHO BUILT ON CHAOS - GEORGE SOROS.”)
[SIZE=2]- “I admit that I have always harbored an exaggerated view of my self-importance—to put it bluntly, I fancied myself as some kind of god or an economic reformer like Keynes (each with his General Theory) or, even better, a scientist like Einstein (reflexivity sounds like relativity).” (The Alchemy of Finance, George Soros) (Link)[/SIZE]
Soros thinks he is god.
[SIZE=2]KROFT: Are you religious?
Mr. SOROS: No.
KROFT: Do you believe in God?
Mr. SOROS: No.
KROFT: (Voiceover) Soros told us he believes God was created by man, not the other way around, which may be why he thinks he can smooth out the world’s imperfections.[/SIZE]
What did Beck say that was wrong or racist abour George Soros?
In your other post, you said Soros was not "spooky". You said he was a rich, liberal Jew.
Well, you are wrong, Bob. Soros does not believe in God, he is not a Jew:

Bob, I'm not arguing with you. I know you are wrapped up in Media Matters. That's fine. It's your choice.
My hope is that by openly debating and debunking your statements in public, than those who are reading this may wake up and realize what is going on here. I hope by debating with the left, those who are on the left BUT OPEN-MINDED and the moderates reading this will realize what the left really is. Progressives.
Progressives like yourself can't handle the facts because it infringes upon your bubble world. However, you progressives cannot argue with the facts because they are FACTS. My point is prooven below. I ask you a question, present you with facts and you......ignore and deflect the facts.

Point prooven.
Stating the same things over and over again, regardless how effective you think FOX is, doesn't make them true, just annoying.
