We fight, We win, Am Yisrael Chai
"A month ago, I wrote a piece for this website with the title: "The smears against George Soros are dangerous." I knew then, from spending time in Eastern Europe, that the international far-right's attack on Soros had become an excuse for Hungary's government to imprison migrants and shut universities. What I didn't know was that within a month, the conspiracy theories about one of America's most prominent Jewish philanthropists spread by that far-right network -- including members of the US President's entourage -- would lead to bombing attempts and mass murder on US soil."
To many Americans, it might be confusing to see far-right extremists, like Cesar Altieri Sayoc Jr. and Robert Bowers, be accused of attacking Jewish people in the name of protesting nonwhite immigration. Sayoc, who is charged with last week's mail bomb campaign, reportedly accused Soros of funding a high-profile caravan of immigrants currently traveling from Honduras (and echoed several high-profile GOP leaders in doing so.)
Bowers, arrested at the scene of Saturday's synagogue shootings in Pittsburgh, is reported to have posted messages complaining about Jewish organizations aiding refugees. "Open you Eyes!" [sic] read one post. "It's the filthy EVIL jews Bringing the Filthy EVIL Muslims into the Country!!"
To Eastern Europeans, none of this is surprising at all.
