Russia bans
George Soros charity as ‘security threat’
Monday, 30 Nov 2015 | 8:17 AM ET
Russia has banned a pro-democracy
charity founded by hedge fund billionaire George Soros, saying the organization
posed a threat to both state security and the Russian constitution.
In a statement released Monday morning,
Russia's General Prosecutor's Office said two branches of Soros' charity
network — the Open Society Foundations (OSF) and the Open Society Institute
(OSI) — would be placed on a "stop list" of foreign non-governmental
organizations whose activities have been deemed "undesirable" by the
Russian state.
"It was found that the
activity of the Open Society Foundations and the Open Society Institute
Assistance Foundation represents a threat to the foundations of the
constitutional system of the Russian Federation and the security of the
state," a
translated version of the press statement read.
Soros, who is best known for his
namesake Soros Fund Management firm, originally founded the OSF network to help
countries transition from communism. The charity now funds project aimed at
democracy building across the globe.
OSF first came into trouble with the
Russian government in July, when it hinted it might ban the foundation along
with a number of other pro-democracy organizations accused of launching
"soft aggression" in the country.
Russia
blacklisted Soros NGOs: "Threat to constitution and state security"
Monday,
November 30, 2015 - 18:42
Two foreign
non-governmental organizations run by George Soros have been blacklisted as
undesirable by the Russian Prosecutor-General's Office, according to RIA
Novosti. Soros himself does not deny having contributed financially to
Ukraine's 2004 "Orange Revolution" and 2013 Maidan coup.
The Russian
Prosecutor-General's Office has included two foreign organizations operated by
George Soros in its list of the undesirable NGOs, RIA Novosti quoted the office's
spokeswoman Marina Gridneva as saying on Monday.
The
organizations include the Open Society Foundations and the Open Society
Institute Assistance Foundation, both part of a network of international
organizations created by noted US billionaire investor George Soros.
"[The
prosecutors] have found that the activity of these organizations poses a threat
to the foundations of Russia’s constitutional system and state security,"
Gridneva said.
Earlier this
year, Russia adopted a law facilitating the blacklisting of foreign and
international non-governmental organizations which were considered
"undesirable in Russia". Organizations are included in the list if
they are thought to pose a threat to the country's constitutional system,
defense capability or national security.

Two foreign non-governmental
organizations run by George Soros have been blacklisted as undesirable by the
Russian Prosecutor-General's Office, according to RIA Novosti.
The Russian Prosecutor-General's Office
has included two foreign organizations operated by George Soros
in its list of the undesirable NGOs, RIA Novosti quoted the office's
spokeswoman Marina Gridneva as saying on Monday.
The organizations include the Open Society
Foundations and the Open Society Institute Assistance Foundation, both part
of a network of international organizations created by noted US
billionaire investor George Soros.
"[The
prosecutors] have found that the activity of these organizations poses a
threat to the foundations of Russia’s constitutional system and state
security," Gridneva said.
The decision
came after Russia's upper house of parliament, the Federation
Council, asked the country's Prosecutor —General's Office, the Foreign
Minister and the Justice Minister to inspect organizations included
in the so-called patriotic "stop list." The document was
approved by the Federation Council in July 2015.
Earlier this year, Russia adopted a law
facilitating the blacklisting of foreign and international
non-governmental organizations which were considered "undesirable
in Russia". Organizations are included in the list if they are
thought to pose a threat to the country's constitutional system,
defense capability or national security.
Under the law, the Prosecutor General or
his deputy decides whether or not to blacklist an organization,
in coordination with the Russian Foreign Ministry. The revocation
of such a decision is carried out in a similar manner.
Known for having made some
of the largest speculative transactions in history, George Soros'
agenda in Russia dates back to 1988, when he met with Mikhail
Gorbachev in Moscow. Through his multi-billion-dollar funds, he once hoped
to help steer the course of Russian political development.
However, he disapproved of the
Putin administration, and in 2003, he stopped funding charitable projects
in Russia.
Earlier this year, he made it known that
he supports sanctions against Russia and proposed propping up Kiev
with a whopping $50 billion fund to "counter Moscow’s nationalist
expansionism", writing in the New York Times Review of Books
that this would foil Putin's "attempts to destabilize Ukraine".
Among other 'charitable' projects, Soros
himself does not deny having contributed financially to Ukraine's 2004
"Orange Revolution" and 2013 Maidan coup.

SLAM: Russia

Russia’s
banned two George Soros-linked groups, the Open Society Foundation and the Open

nation’s security and government.
Russia’s
general prosecutor’s office said the two organizations are going to be placed

“undesirable” in the eyes of the Kremlin, CNBC reported.

Soros founded
the OSF groups as a means of helping countries move away from communism
and toward more democratic rule. But both Soros and his charity organizations
faced criticism in October after Hungary accused them of supporting illegal
immigration and pressing for countries to take in Syrian refugees. Soros also
recommended each refugee receive $16,000 a year in government assistance to
help pay for housing, health care and education.

Russia
Eliminates George Soros

Poor
Billionaire scumbag George Soros. His colour revolution is finally being called
out for what it truly is. Rather than a pro democracy movement of civil
disobedience, its nothing less than a full attack on democracy by the New World
Order Agenda truly behind it. On Monday Obama’s State Department criticized
Russia’s decision to evict George Soros’ Open Society Foundation.
In November Russia put the Open Society Foundations and the Open Society
Institute Assistance Foundation on a stop list of undesirable foreign NGOs.
Russia’s General Prosecutor’s Office said the Soros outfits represent “a threat
to the foundations of the constitutional system of the Russian Federation and
the security of the state.” The Soros “pro-democracy” track record includes
underwriting color revolutions and stirring up social unrest in Serbia,
Georgia, Egypt, Turkey, Macedonia and most recently Ukraine.
“We see the tragic consequences of the so-called color revolutions and ordeals
survived by the peoples of the states that faced these irresponsible
experiments of covert and sometimes even… overt interference into their lives,”
Vladimir Putin said in a speech before a meeting of the Russian Security
Council in November.
“This is a lesson and warning for us and we will do everything possible to
prevent this from happening in Russia.”
At the very least, Americans should be outraged by Soros’ unabashed fueling of
division in our country. As our hijacked government continues to protect his
minions. ”A ‘Black Lives Matter’ supporter who threatened to massacre 16 white
students as part of a revenge attack for the shooting of Chicago teen Laquan
McDonald has been allowed to return to campus by a federal judge.
“This is my only warning,” wrote Dean. “At 10 a.m. on Monday mourning (sic) I
am going to the campus quad of the University of Chicago. I will be armed with
a M-4 Carbine and 2 Desert Eagles all fully loaded. I will execute aproximately
(sic) 16 white male students and or staff, which is the same number of time
(sic) Mcdonald (sic) was killed.”“I then will die killing any number of white
policemen that I can in the process. This is not a joke. I am to do my part to
rid the world of the white devils. I expect you to do the same,” the post
stated.”
That in a nutshell is what you can expect resulting from the dirty deeds of
George Soros.
