This essay discusses George Soros through the template of Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice. Permit me to be your gondolier, while we navigate George Soros: quant, philosopher, philanthropist, authour, & agent provocateur.

Circumstantial evidence is the best evidence, provided you have all the circumstances. Carefully review the facts presented below, their context & make your own considered assessment. In case, you have any more information kindly comment in a reply below. Kindly also express your opinion in a reply.

Coin clipping


Coin clipping shaves metal from the coin's circumference to debase coins.

From 1290 to 1655, Jews were exiled from England, in the same manner that the Alhambra Decree banished Jews from Catholic Spain. In 1276, Edward I of England funded his war with Wales progressively taxed Jewish moneylenders to the extent that they could not pay the tax.

Elizabethans in England, the bard of Avon included, derived their Jewish expertise second hand from the rabid anti-Semitism that engulfed medieval Europe. While literature aficionados debate the degree of Shakespeare's anti-Semitism, the bard was certainly not sympathetic to Jewish causes.

             Once we realize that imperfect understanding 
             is the human condition 
             there is no shame in being wrong, 
             only in failing to correct our mistakes.

Funding his preferred outcomes

"I have always harboured 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, or, even better, like Einstein."

Budapest, Hungary: George Soros, founder with Michael Ignatieff, the fifth president & rector, Central European University.

"My sense of reality was strong enough to make me realise that these expectations were excessive & I kept them hidden as a guilty secret."

George Soros, Chairman of Soros Fund Management LLC & founder of the Open Society Foundations, in The Alchemy of Finance
           I'm not doing my philanthropic work, out of any kind 
           of guilt, 
           or any need to create good public relations. 
           I'm doing it because I can afford to do it,  
           & I believe in it.

                  I chose America as my home because I value 
                  freedom and democracy, civil liberties & 
                  an open society.
                  George Soros

"This was a source of considerable unhappiness through much of my adult life. As I made my way in the world, reality came close enough to my fantasy to allow me to admit my secret, at least to myself. Needless to say, I feel much happier as a result."

George Soros, The Alchemy of Finance
             The United States has a strong constitution & 
             resilient institutions, & even though this moment 
             may usher in grave threats to our democracy I am 
             confident that open society will prevail.

          Soros lived in Budapest, Kingdom of Hungary. 
          His non-observant Jewish family, like upper-middle 
          class Hungarian Jews of the time, were uncomfortable
          with their Jewish origins.
          Soros claimed that his home as antisemitic.  
          His father Tivadar ("Teodoro") was a lawyer &  WW1 POW.

Esperanto

Babel for the New World Order?

           Q:  Are you religious
           A:  No
           Q:  Do you believe in God?
           A:  No

Strong's Concordance
soros: a cinerary urn, by anal. a coffin
Original Word: σορός, οῦ, ἡ; Part of Speech: Noun, Feminine; Transliteration: soros; Phonetic Spelling: (sor-os')

           Tivadar was an Esperantist writer who 
           taught young George  to speak Esperanto. 
           In 1936 Soros's family changed their name 
           from the German-Jewish Schwartz to Soros 
           as concealment  from antisemitism Hungary. 
           Tivadar liked the palindromic surname & because
           "soros" means "next in line," or "designated successor" 
           in Hungarian & "will soar" in Esperanto.

"Were there but an international language, all translations would be made into it alone ... and all nations would be united in a common brotherhood."

L. L. Zamenhof, Polish-Jewish ophthalmologist, constructor of Esperanto in a letter to Nikolai Borovko, ca. 1895.
As per Unua Libro, L. L. Zamenhof's book, Esperanto orignates from Doktoro Esperanto, one who hopes. Doktoro Esperanto, was Zamenhof's nome de plume when Unua Libro was published.

"To find some means of overcoming the natural indifference of mankind, and disposing them, in the quickest manner possible, and en masse, to learn and use the proposed language as a living one, and not only in last extremities, and with the key at hand."

Doktoro Esperanto, L. L. Zamenhof's 3rd goal for Esperanto in Unua Libro.

11 Now the whole earth spoke one language and used the same words (vocabulary). 2 And as people journeyed eastward, they found a plain in the land of Shinar and they settled there. 3 They said one to another, “Come, let us make bricks and fire them thoroughly [in a kiln, to harden and strengthen them].” So they used brick for stone [as building material], and they used tar (bitumen, asphalt) for mortar. 4 They said, “Come, let us build a city for ourselves, and a tower whose top will reach into the heavens, and let us make a [famous] name for ourselves, so that we will not be scattered [into separate groups] and be dispersed over the surface of the entire earth [as the Lord instructed].”
Gen 11:1-4, AMP

Pieter_Bruegel_the_Elder_-_The_Tower_of_Babel_(Vienna)_-_Google_Art_Project.jpg
The Tower of Babel by Pieter Bruegel the Elder (1563)

5 Now the Lord came down to see the city and the tower which the sons of men had built. 6 And the Lord said, “Behold, they are one [unified] people, and they all have the same language. This is only the beginning of what they will do [in rebellion against Me], and now no evil thing they imagine they can do will be impossible for them. 7 Come, let Us (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) go down and there confuse and mix up their language, so that they will not understand one another’s speech.” 8 So the Lord scattered them abroad from there over the surface of the entire earth; and they stopped building the city. 9 Therefore the name of the city was [b]Babel—because there the Lord confused the language of the entire earth; and from that place the Lord scattered and dispersed them over the surface of all the earth.
Gen 11:5-9, AMP

In quantum mechanics, Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, postulates that it is impossible to predict the behaviour of sub-atomic particles. Soros' Curaçao, Dutch Antilles investment vehicle is called the Quantum Fund.

Invest first and then investigate … form a hypothesis, take a toehold position to test the hypothesis, and wait for the market to prove you are right or wrong.

George Soros

I find the current [market] situation much more baffling and much less predictable than I did at the time of the height of the financial crisis.

George Soros

It's not whether you're right or wrong, you just have to have the maximum when you're right.

Stan Druckenmiller on George Soros & the British pound.

Alchemy

It really is the method of alchemy, because the value of securities or the value of currencies is much more dependent on the kinds of incantations or fomulas that you are using, rather than a process of science.

George Soros


Alchemy is now claimed to be the science of understanding the structure of matter, breaking it down. Traditionally, alchemy is the medieval forerunner of chemistry, transmutation of matter, attempts to convert base metals into gold & finding a universal elixir.

And I will do all I can to help preserve the openness, inclusiveness & diversity that represent our greatest strength.
Soros

Soros' efforts to bring about an Open Society, with New World Order compassion encompasses specific programs & efforts with a global footprint.

The Merchant of Venice, otherwise called the Jew of Venice.

Thomas Gray, Jessica and Shylock, 1868

The villainy you teach me I will execute.

Shylock, in The Merchant of Venice.

"Hath not a Jew eyes? Hath not a Jew hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions; fed with the same food, hurt with the same weapons, subject to the same diseases, healed by the same means, warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer as a Christian is?"

Shylock, in The Merchant of Venice.

The villainy that Christians taught Shylock, in the Merchant of Venice.

  • Antonio spat on Shylock.
  • Gratiano wanted Shylock hanged.
  • Portia was aghast at the possibility that a dark complexioned suitor might choose the right casket, and hence, could be her husband.

SHYLOCK
Yes—to smell pork, to eat of the habitation which your prophet the Nazarite conjured the devil into. I will buy with you, sell with you, talk with you, walk with you, and so following, but I will not eat with you, drink with you, nor pray with you. What news on the Rialto? Who is he comes here? How like a fawning publican he looks!
I hate him for he is a Christian,
But more for that in low simplicity
He lends out money gratis and brings down
The rate of usance here with us in Venice.
If I can catch him once upon the hip,
I will feed fat the ancient grudge I bear him.
He hates our sacred nation, and he rails,
Even there where merchants most do congregate,
On me, my bargains and my well-won thrift,
Which he calls “interest.” Cursèd be my tribe
If I forgive him!
Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice

              Stock market bubbles don't grow out of thin air. 
              They have a solid basis in reality, 
              but reality as distorted by a misconception.
              George Soros

Exacting his pound of flesh without shedding blood?


Julius Streicher, Nazi propagandist & Gauleiter of Franconia, built on the foundations laid by Luther, Bismarck, Goethe, Hitler, Alfred Rosenberg & The Merchant of Venice to prove that Jews, the race of Shylock would only be satisfied when it had exacted their pound of flesh.

Between 1933 to 1939, Nazi Germany had 50 productions of The Merchant of Venice with elements of the play modified to suit the Nazi agenda.

In 1943, when Vienna become Judenrein, “cleansed of Jews,” in 1943, a virulently anti-Semitic Nazi Youth leader, Baldur von Schirach, commissioned a performance.

ANTONIO
Mark you this, Bassanio,
The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose.
An evil soul producing holy witness
Is like a villain with a smiling cheek,
A goodly apple rotten at the heart.
Oh, what a goodly outside falsehood hath!
Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice.

Kroft:  You’re a Hungarian Jew. 
Soros:  Mm-hmm. 
K:  …who escaped the Holocaust. 
S:  Mm-hmm. 
K:  …by—by posing as a Christian. 
S:  Right. 
K:  And you watched lots of people get shipped off to 
      the death camps. 
S:  Right.  
      I was 14 years old.  
     And I would say that’s when my character was made. 
K:  In what way? 
S:  That one should think ahead.  
      One should understand & anticipate events 
      when one is threatened.  
      It was a tremendous threat of evil.  
      I mean—it was a very personal experience of evil. 
K:  My understanding is that you went out with this 
      protector of yours who swore that you were his 
      adopted godson. 
S:  Yes. Yes. 
K:  Went out, in fact, and helped in the confiscation of 
     property from the Jews. 
S:  Yes. That’s right. Yes. 
K:  I mean, that’s—that sounds like an experience that 
      would send lots of people to the psychiatric couch 
      for many, many years.  
      Was it difficult? 
S:  Not—not at all.  
      Maybe as a child you don’t—
      you don’t see the connection.  
      But it was—it created no, no problem at all. 
K:  No feeling of guilt. 
S:  No. 
K:  For example, that “I’m Jewish and here I am, 
      watching these people go. 
      I could just as easily be there.  
      I should be there.’  
      None of that? 
S:  Well, of course I, I could be on the other side or 
       I could be the one from whom the thing is 
       being taken away.  
       But there was not sense that I shouldn’t be there, 
       because that was—well, actually in a funny way, 
       it’s just like in markets—that if I weren’t there, 
       of course I wasn’t doing it, but somebody else would—
       would be taking it away anyhow.  
       And it was the—whether I was there or not, 
       I was only a spectator, the property was being taken away.  
       So the—I had no role in taking away that property.  
       So I had no sense of guilt.

"George Soros confiscated Jewish property for the Nazis & has no regrets even today," Dinesh D'Souza The Big Lie.

"Soros is being attacked not for his Jewish identity, but for his actions. Yet both Jews and non-Jews have risen up to declare such criticism “anti-Semitic” solely because he happens to be Jewish. In the left’s brave new world, you can neither call a speculator a speculator nor criticize a progressive donor for his progressive donations. As long as he’s a Jewish progressive, he can’t be touched."

Evelyn Gordon, The Left’s Inversion of Anti-Semitism, on the uproar over the recent Hungarian campaign against George Soros & the Hungarian Jewish Federation's protests against Hungary's actions.

SHYLOCK
These be the Christian husbands. I have a daughter.
Would any of the stock of Barabbas
Had been her husband rather than a Christian!—
We trifle time. I pray thee, pursue sentence.
PORTIA
A pound of that same merchant’s flesh is thine.
The court awards it, and the law doth give it.
SHYLOCK
Most rightful judge!

PORTIA
And you must cut this flesh from off his breast.
The law allows it, and the court awards it.
PORTIA
Tarry a little. There is something else.
This bond doth give thee here no jot of blood.
The words expressly are “a pound of flesh.”
Take then thy bond, take thou thy pound of flesh,
But in the cutting it if thou dost shed
One drop of Christian blood, thy lands and goods
Are by the laws of Venice confiscate
Unto the state of Venice.
GRATIANO
O upright judge!—Mark, Jew.—O learnèd judge!

The upright judge, Portia herself is the quintessential hypocrite. Portia confides in Nerissa, “I can easier teach twenty what were good to be do than to be one of the twenty to follow mine own teaching.”

Even in the 1600s, Portia's pontificating on grace while coercing Shylock into converting to Christianity was not a recommended evangelistic technique.

In A Demonstration To The Christians In Name, Without The Nature Of It: How They Hinder Conversion Of The Jews 1629, George Fox, opines that conversion is not merely "bringing others to talk as you.”

SHYLOCK
Is that the law?
PORTIA
Thyself shalt see the act.
For as thou urgest justice, be assured
Thou shalt have justice more than thou desirest.

"There is almost as much evil in the defending Christians as there is in the prosecuting Jew, and a verdict that relieves a moneylender of half his wealth and then forces him to convert to save his skin is not really a sterling example of Christian justice.”

Charles Marowitz, Recycling Shakespeare

"The distinction between what is and isn’t anti-Semitic ought to be obvious: When progressive activists—or any other kind of activists—are targeted because they are Jews, that’s anti-Semitic. When they are targeted because they are progressive activists, that’s not anti-Semitic, even if they also happen to be Jews."

"Yet in a stunning inversion, the progressive left has turned this obvious distinction on its head: Targeting people for being Jewish is no longer anti-Semitic, but targeting people for being progressive activists is. Thus instead of being a shield to protect Jews, charges of anti-Semitism have become a shield to protect leftists. And thereby, the left has completed the process of redefining anti-Semitism to its own benefit, and the detriment of the Jews."

Evelyn Gordon, The Left’s Inversion of Anti-Semitism.

SHYLOCK
When Jacob grazed his uncle Laban’s sheep—
This Jacob from our holy Abram was,
As his wise mother wrought in his behalf,
The third possessor, ay, he was the third—
ANTONIO
And what of him? Did he take interest?
SHYLOCK
No, not take interest—not as you would say
Directly interest. Mark what Jacob did:
When Laban and himself were compromised
That all the eanlings which were streaked and pied
Should fall as Jacob’s hire, the ewes, being rank,
In the end of autumn turnèd to the rams.
And when the work of generation was
Between these woolly breeders in the act,
The skillful shepherd peeled me certain wands.
And in the doing of the deed of kind
He stuck them up before the fulsome ewes,
Who then conceiving did in eaning time
Fall parti-colored lambs—and those were Jacob’s.
This was a way to thrive, and he was blessed.
And thrift is blessing, if men steal it not.
ANTONIO
This was a venture, sir, that Jacob served for—
A thing not in his power to bring to pass
But swayed and fashioned by the hand of heaven.
Was this inserted to make interest good?
Or is your gold and silver ewes and rams?
SHYLOCK
I cannot tell: I make it breed as fast.
But note me, signor—

Has George Soros simply fashioned a better way to thrive?

And sought make his thrift a blessing?

What do you think?

What's your opinion?
