Many of the groups holding pro-Palestinian and anti-Israel protests across the nation since the war in the Middle East first broke out are funded by none other than billionaire leftist financier George Soros.
According to a new report, the Open Society Foundations, Soros' organization, has funneled millions of dollars to these groups, some of which are publicly justifying Hamas' actions in the Israel/Gaza conflict, which raises serious questions about the merits and ethics of finances going toward an organization that has a well-documented history of killing Israeli civilians.
Far-left billionaire kingmaker George Soros has funneled more than $15 million since 2016 to groups behind this month's pro-Palestine protests, where demonstrators openly cheered Hamas militants' craven terrorist attacks on Israel.
A Post examination of Open Society Foundations records shows Soros' grant-making network gave $13.7 million of the money through Tides Center, a deep-pocketed lefty advocacy group that sponsors several nonprofits who've justified Hamas' bloody attacks while claiming Palestinians obsessed with the eradication of the Jewish state are the real victims.
Soros' funding of these groups adds another layer to the ongoing debate over the Israel/Palestine issue, especially when it comes to the current war, which was sparked when Hamas launched a massive surprise attack against Israel.
Folks on the left have responded to these criticisms by claiming anyone who speaks ill of Soros is motivated by antisemitism because he is Jewish.
The question is: Are those calling Soros out for funding these groups still antisemitic? Is it wrong to criticize Jewish folks who support antisemitic causes? Or is this akin to the N-word for black folks in that antisemitism is only acceptable when it comes from someone who happens to be Jewish?
