Soros announces $1 billion global education initiative to promote free societies
2020-01-26
[IsraelTimes] American Jewish philanthropist George Soros
...either Ernst Stavro Blofeld or Auric Goldfinger come true...
has announced an investment of $1 billion in a new international educational initiative to promote liberal values and free societies.
Nazi-collaborator
Soros announced the Open Society University Network at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland
...home of the Helvetians, famous for cheese, watches, yodeling, and William Tell...
, calling it "the most important and enduring project of my life."

Details on the project were scant, but a statement said it would aim "to reach the students who need it the most and to promote the values of open society ‐ including free expression and diversity of beliefs."

It will also seek to assist "institutions in need of international partners, as well as neglected populations" and help "politically endangered scholars."

The initiative describes itself as seeking to "strengthen foundations of open society amid authoritarian resurgence" around the world, and to "counteract polarization by promoting global research collaboration and educating students to examine issues from different perspectives and advance reasoned arguments."

One of the project’s founding members is the Central Europe
...the land mass occupying the space between the English Channel and the Urals, also known as Moslem Lebensraum...
an University, a private institution founded by Soros which was forced to relocate from Budapest in 2018 over pressure from the government of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban. It recently opened its new Vienna campus.

Soros’s intense efforts to promote progressive causes have made him a frequent target and boogeyman of right-wing leaders and a key figure in far-right conspiracy theories. His vilification has often carried anti-Semitic undertones, with the 89-year-old portrayed as a villainous figure trying to gain global power.
Whatevs, dudes. I loathe him because he has been a vile human being all his life, not because both he and I are Jewish.
The Jewish billionaire told the Guardian in November he believed the tide may be turning against recent years’ wave of global populism,
...you go on putting down money on your belief, Mr. Soros, while we keep proving you wrong...
and said of his vilification by right-wing leaders that he "must be doing something right."
That’s certainly one perspective.

#7  I have always wondered if he is an anarchist in his deepest heart, a modern day Mikhail Bakunin trying to remake the world through chaos.

#6  "Does Soros also demand Israel open all of it's borders?"

He funds a lot of political+NGO's groups against Israel.

#5   Does Soros also demand Israel open all of it's borders?

He has said he is not a Zionist, Varmint Splat1454. He funds a sheaf of anti-Israel groups — for example, he and sources linked to him reportedly contribute 7% of the leftwing J Street’s budget, though they lied for years about getting anything from him.

#2  This is a man whose millions ensured the election of multiple quasi-bolshevik cop-haters and pro-criminal radicals as prosecutors and top law enforcement officials around the US.

We now have a new definition of chutzpah.
