OK.....let me say this one more time. (Back to having to defend myself, I see....classic Alinsky.) NOBODY on this thread - and certainly not me - faults him for his role during Nazi Germany, when he was a teen. I am saying how awful it was that during the 60 Minutes interview, when he was an adult, he couldn't even pretend to have any feelings about what he did. It was basically a big shrug, as if to say "so what." He was proud to say, to all Jewish survivors and their descendants, that yes...I was involved....and no....I don't feel a morsel of guilt about it. Read about passive-aggressive behavior, because that was classic.
I don't know how much more clear I can make it, but you're doing it: putting your opponent on the defensive because you are unwilling to acknowledge that Soros' response in that interview was like a knife in the heart of many Jewish survivors. If he had any respect for Jews, he would have at least pretended that he gave a ****.
And I'm not sure what you mean by St. Petersburg, although I know you are a liberal so I imagine it's some snide comment intended as an insult. (Oh wait.....I just got it. Russia, Russia, Russia!)
Finally, as far as the "proper response," why am I not allowed my opinion about what a proper response is? Why are only the responses that follow the liberal line allowed? Once again, it is the liberal way to shut up people who see things differently than they do. SOROS' RESPONSE IN THAT INTERVIEW WAS HORRIBLE.
In the 60s we lived in Rochester, NY. Our apartment was in the inner city. When the Rochester Riots broke out we found out when we went the wrong was through a police road block. Kind of interesting - two whites one pregnant out watching the riot unfold. We were actually well protected as we were known and surrounded by young and good sized neighbors.
A week or so later the the quite Republican Rochester government decided to help the black community organize. They recruited and paid the Alinsky organization to come in and lead the effort. They also recruited a black neighbor who was a graduate student close to his PhD in physics to lead the new organization.
So that would suggest Alinsky was acceptable to the Republican in the 60s
