George Soros and the
Rothschilds Connection
By Jan Von Helsing ("Secret Societies and
their Power in the 20th Century")
Special Note : The author of this book is German. He claims he has
several jewish friends and is
not racist or prejudice, but often cites the
Talmud as a guide book for certain Jews and discusses a
Jewish Conspiracy
that involves elements of Zionism and other conspiracy issues as well. I do not
agree wholeheartedly with the author's entire beliefs, however alot of the
research on a variety of
other topics is VERY GOOD. We are seeking
truth here and not Hatred or prejudice, as a matter of
FACT, I was
raised Jewish myself. For my views on the Jewish Conspiracy, you will have to go
Here
to find out, this is not the forum.
The now 64 year old Hungarian with a U.S. passport is the
superstar amidst the great speculators.
When the last "Forbes" list of the
best paid managers and financiers was published, Soros was in the
lead by a
huge margin. In the last year he earned 550 million US$, twenty times as much as
the
Disney Boss. When Soros opens the hunt, the international money markets
get moving and the
reserve banks start worrying. In Sept. 1993 he succeeded
over the Bank of England. He was
certain the Bank would have to take the
pound that came under pressure out of the European
exchange mechanism
and devalue it. He gambled 10 Billion US$ --with success. He made 1 Billion
US$, which the British taxpayers now have to come up with. He himself likes
to be openly known
as the man who wants to influence the big money markets
of the world. This is a very unusual stance
for an investor to take, who
should rather be interested in using situations unobservantly that the
competitors have not yet discovered. In March 1993, Soros' activities became
known when he
predicted a rise in the price of gold. It is assumed --since
this started a buying spree in precious
metals --that this drove the price
up 20% over the highest price since the Gulf War. In the beginning
of June
1993, he wrote an open letter to the business editor of the London Times,
Anatole
Kaletsky, announcing that he intented to urge the money markets to
sell large amounts of German
government bonds in favor of French stocks.
Which means: Down with the German mark and
attack on the Bundesbank!
In several newspapers across the world Soros is praised
as a kind of "Robin Hood of the Computer Age", since by speculation he takes
from the rich nations in grand style to hand out to
Eastern Europe and
Russia via several Soros Foundations, to prepare the way for "Democracy" in
those "poor" countries that had been bled dry by communism.
Who then is Soros? The official story says that he was
born in 1930 to Jewish parents and as a
teenager had been chased from
Budapest by the Nazis. He enrolled at the "London School of
Economics" and
in the mid-50's came to the U.S. There he was magically drawn to Wall Street,
but
his career until 1969 was unspectacular. Then with a partner he took
over an investment fund. He
sold stocks he didn't own as futures, hoping
that their price would fall nearer the qualifying date and
that he could
aquire them at a price lower than his selling price.
From
this fund the "Quantum Group" evolved, a family of investment funds operating
from the
Dutch West Indies. Quantum is one of the most impressive
"investment machines" in the world. In
8 of the last 24 years it made an
"official" profit of over 50%, in 2 of those years even over 100%.
In the
meantime Soros handed business over to a group of managers and limits himself to
designing
the "great campaigns". He put down his princples in the book, "The
Alchemy of Finance", where he
says what "financial speculators think more
important than real economic facts".
But this is but the
picture the media -- and we know who owns them --paint of him. Who is he in
reality?
William Engdahl knows this to say about him:
"Soros speculates on the world's financial markets via
his secret off-shore company, "Quantum
Fund NV", a private "investment fund"
that handles a portfolio of 4 to 7 Billion US$ for several
"clients". The
Quantum Fund is registered in the tax haven of the Netherland Antilles in the
Caribbean.
In order to evade control of his financial activities by the U.S.
administration not a single U.S. citizen sits on the board of Quantum. It's
directors are a curious mixture of Swiss and Italian financiers...
Soros has been identified as a front man of the
Anglo-French Rothschild banking group.
Understandably neither he nor the
Rothschilds want this important fact to be public, so the tight links to his
friends in the London "City", in the British foreign ministry, in the state of
Israel and to his mighty friends in the American establishment would stay
concealed."
Among the members of the board of the Quantum
Fund is one Richard Katz. He is, at the same
time, head of the "Rothschild
Italia S.p.A." in Milan and is also on the board of the commercial bank
"N.M. Rothschild and Sons" in London. Another member of the board is Nils O.
Taube. He is a
partner in the London investment group "St. James Place
Capital" which counts Lord Rothschild
among it's main partners. A frequent
partner of Soros in several of his speculations --especially in
the driving
up of the gold quotation-- is Sir James Goldsmith, a relative of the Rothschilds
dynasty.
On the board of Quantum we also find some heads of some highly
"discreet" Swiss private banks
(who help the syndicates of organized
crime--weapons and drugs--to launder their money). Then
there is Edgar D. de
Picciotto, head of the Geneva private bank "CBITDB Union Bancaire Privee",
a
main player on the gold and investment markets, Isidoro Albertini, head of the
Milan stockbroking
company "Albertini and Co.", Beat Notz of the private
bank "Banque Worms" at Geneva, Alberto
Foglia, head of the Banca del
Ceresio" at Lugano. In the course of the recent political corruption
scandals in Italy it was found that several Italian politicians kept their
money at the "Banca del
Ceresio". Apparently Soros had more than just
insider knowledge about the weal points in Italian
politics when he attacked
the lira in Sept. 1994.
William Engdahl explains :
"Soros' connection to the ultra-secret international finance circles of
the
Rothschilds is not just an ordinary or accidental banking connection. The
extraordinary success
Soros has on the high-risk financial markets cannot
simply be explained with "gambler's luck".
Soros has access to the "insider
track" of the world's most imporatnt information channels, both
government
and private.
Ever since the Second World War the
Rothschild family tried to disseminate an aura of
insignificance about
themselves. But behind this one of the mightiest and most obscure financial
groups of the world. The Rothschilds spend alot of money to cultivate the
picture of a wealthy
aristocratic family leading a quiet life where one
loves French wines and another engages in
charitable trusts.
To experts on the "City" N.M. Rothschilds and Sons is
most influencial in the faction of the
British secret service establishment
closely linked with the neo-liberal Thatcher wing of the Tory
party. In the
80's N.M. Rothschild & Sons made several Billion US$ from the privatization
of
British state-owned industries they conducted for Mrs. Thatcher. The
Rothschild bank is also at the
center of world gold trade: In this bank the
gold price is fixed twice a day by the five most
influencial gold trading
banks.
But N.M. Rothschild & Sons is also entangled
in some very dirty secret service operations
dealing with "drugs vs. arms".
Because of it's good relations to the highest places in the British secret
service the Rothschilds succeeded in preventing their complicity in one of
the worst illegal secret
service networks, the BCCI (Bank of Credit and
Commerce International) was never mentioned.
In reality the Rothschilds bank
belonged to the inner circle of these international money laundering
banks
of the CIA and M16 that financed in the 70's and 80's CIA projects like the
"Contras" in
Nicaragua".
William Engdahl : "Was
stecht hinter den Wahrungskriegen des George Soros? (What Is Behind
the
Currency Wars of George Soros?), EIRNA-Studie "Derivate -Die finanzielle
Wasserstoffbombe der 90er Jahre" (Derivatives --The Financial Hydrogen Bomb
of the 90's).
The influencial Chairman of the Banking
Commission in the U.S. House of Representatives, Henry Gonzales, chided the Bush
and Reagen administrations for refusing to prosecute the BCCI. In
addition
the Dept. of Justice repeadedly declined to co-operate in the Congressional
investigations
into the BCCI scandal and the closely linked scandal of the
"Banco Nazional del Lavoro" (BNL).
This bank had made billions of dollars
from loans that Bush had granted the Iraqi government shortly
before the Gulf
War. Gonzales had said that the Bush administration had had a Department of
Justice
which he thought "the most corrupt, most unbelievably corrupt
Department of justice that I have ever
experienced during my 32 years in
Congress".
After the BCCI had been openly accused in the
media for transgression of several laws, the New
York prosecuting
attorney Henry Morganthau announced official charges against the
BCCI.
Morganthau accused the BCCI of the "biggest banking fraud of the
financial world. The BCCI
during it's 19 year history operated as a corrupt
criminal organization."
One of the directors of the BCCI,
the Saudi-Arabian Shiekh Kamal Adham, had been the head of
the Saudi
secret service during the time Bush headed the CIA.
Not a single Western newspaper has so far uncovered the fact that the
Rothschilds group linked
with George Soros was at the hub of the vast illegal
network of the BCCI. The key person in these activities was Dr. Alfred Hartmann,
the managing director of the Swiss branch of the BCCI (Banque
de Commerce et
de Placement SA), head of the Zurich Rothschild bank AG and member of
the
board of N.M. Rothschild & Sons in London. He was also on the
board of the Swiss branch of the
Italian BNL and was vice-chairman of
the "N.Y. Intermaritime Bank" in Geneva. A friendly secret
service man who
had worked on the "Soros" case disclosed that in Sept. 1993 Soros had
amassed
along with a group of "silent partners", a firtune in excess of
10 Billion dollars to use as a lever to
unhinge the European
currencies. Among the partners apparently were the little known metal and
oil
dealer Marc Rich and the Israeli arms dealer Shaul Eisenberg. For decades
Eisenberg has been
working for the Israeli secret service and has important
arms deals in all of Asia and in the Near East.
A third partner of Soros is
Rafi Eytan who before was the Mossad connection to the British secret
service
in London.
Basically George Soros is another tool
for economic and political warfare in the hands of the
Rothschilds. He
is among those circles who three years ago started a malicious "Fourth
Reich"
campaign against the re-united Germany: Soros is very
anti-German. In his 1991 autobiography
"Underwriting Democracy" Soros warned
of the danger that a reunited Germany could disturb the
(power) balance
in Europe...It is easy to see how the situation that existed between the wars
could
come up again. A reunited Germany becomes the strongest economic
power and developes Eastern
Europe as it's habitat.... a terrible "witches
brew".
His US contacts put Soros very close to the
financial and secret service circles around George
Bush. His most
important deposit bank and main lender during his attack on the European
monetary
system in Sept. 1993 was CITICORP, America's largest bank.
Soros called upon the international
investors to unhinge the Deutsche Mark.
When in late 1989 a reunification became probable, a high
ranking
Citicorp manager who before had been advisor in the Dukakis campaign said:
"German unity will be catastrophic for our interests. We have to take action to
insure a decline of the Deutsche
Mark by about 30% so that Germany will
not be able to built up Eastern Germany to become the
economic factor
within a new Europe."
According to his associates
Soros has "an incredible ego". He descibed how during the war
in
occupied Hungary he could not have survived as a Jew, so he had
taken on a second identity. What
he did not say, however, was that he
let a man shield him from persecution who did wealthy Jews out
of their
possessions, and that Soros lent him a hand. This is how he "survived" the war,
leaving
Budapest only two years after it had ended. Although he himself
and the Jewish owned media are
quick in attacking all his opponents,
especially in Eastern Europe, as anti-semitic, his Jewishness is
based
on parts of the Talmud rather than on his links with Jewish religion or the
Jewish people.
Outwardly Soros supports a whole
spate social activities, like "peace concerts" with Joan Baez,
stipends
in Oxford for young Eastern Europeans etc...
But reality
presents a different picture. Soros is personally responsible for the chaos and
"shock
therapy" caused in Eastern Europe after 1989. He foisted
ludicrous draconian measures upon the
weak governments there, which
enabled him to buy up resources in wide parts of Eastern Europe
at
rock-bottom prices.
Take Poland as an
example :
At the end of 1989 Soros organized a secret meeting between
the communist regime of Rakowsky
with the leaders of the then illegal
opposition union organization Solidarnosc. The plan he presented
to
both sides is as follows :
*The communists should let the
opposition Solidarnosc take over the government to win the
confidence of the people.
*Then the state should deliberatly drive it's
own industries and agricultural business to ruin by
applying
astronomical interest rates, by withholding the necessary state loans and by
lumbering the
companies with debts they could never
repay.
*Then Soros would get his rich international business friends to
come to Poland and buy up the now
privatized
state companies.
The most recent example is the huge steel
company "Huta Warsawa", which today, so steel
experts say, would cost
about 3 to 4 Billion US$ to build if it was built by Western companies. A
few
months ago the Polish government agreed to take over the "debts" of Huta
Warsawa and to sell the
company now free of debts for 30 Million US$ to the
Milan company Lucchini.
To instigate his plan Soros used a
young friend, the Polish-Jewish economic advisor Jeffrey Sachs
who however
could not begin his advisory work in Poland because so far he could only show
advisory
work he did in Bolivia. So Soros set up another one of his many
foundations, the "Stafen Batory
Foundation", which then in turn was the
official client for the advisory wotk of Sachs in
Poland
(1989-90).
In Soros' own words he has
worked or still works with the main advisor of Lech Walesa,
Bronislaw
Geremek, with General Jaruzelski, Professor Trzeciakowsky, a secret advisor to
the new
Polish minister for finanve and economy Leszec Balcerowicz, and
with the latter himself. Soros
admits that he had known that his
economic "shock therapy" in Poland would lead to severe
unemployment,
to the closing of factories and to social tensions. That is why he insisted
that
Solidarnosc take over the government. Through his foundation he
could approach the most important
opinion makers in the media, like
Adam Michnik, and his collaboration with the US embassy in
Warsaw
enabled him to censor the media which proceeded one-sidedly to support his
"shock therapy"
and opposed any criticism.
Russia
and the CIS states :
Soros led a delegation to Russia, where he had
been collaborating with Raissa Gorbacheva since the
80's, to set up a
further Soros foundation, ":The Cultural Initiative Foundation". This is a
further
vehicle for him and his Western cronies to enter the highest
political echelons tax-free and proceed to
"buy" the most important
political and economic personalities of the country.
After a failed attempt with Gorbechev 1988-1991 he changed over to the circles
around Yeltsin.
And again it was Soros who introduced his "shock
therapy" aided and abeted by his friend
Jeffery
Sachs.
From Jan. 2, 1992 onwards
Sachs "shock therapy" brought an unprecedented chaos and a
forseeable
hyper-inflation to Russia which was followed by the best scientific research
institutes
fleeing to the West. Under the Soros plan, Igor Gajdar and
the Yeltsin government shorted subsidies
to industry and agriculture
drastically, despite all of economy being a state-economy. The
goal
announced was a deficit-free budget within 3 months. There were no
more loans for industry, the
companies accrued astronomical debts and the
rouble inflation went out of control. Soros and his
friends immediately
profited from the situation. Marc Rich, the world's largest aluminum
dealer,
started to buy up alot of Russian aluminum at incredibly low
prices with which in 1993 he proceeded
to flood the market in the
industrialized countries and thus caused the price of aluminum to plummet
by
30%. This is just one example of the Soros
exploitation.
Hungary :
When Istvan Csurka, parlamentarian of the national-socialist opposition, tried
to protest the
destruction of the Hungarian economy by the strategies
of Soros and his friends, he was branded
an "anti-semite" and in June
was excluded from the governing Democratic Forum.
Yugoslavia :
At the beginning of 1990 Soros --in
cooperation with the IMF--in what was then still Yugoslavia
put down the
gauntlet for what then escalated into a war. Soros is also a friend of the then
secretary
of state Lawrence Eagleburger, the former ambassador to Belgrade
and patron of Slobodan
Milosevic. Eagleburger was formerly chairman of
"Kissinger Associates" on whose board Lord
Carrington (Committee of
300) member also sits. The latter's mediations have directly fueled
the
Serbian aggression against the Croats and the Bosnians. Today Soros
has foundations in Bosnia,
Croatia, Slovenia, and a "Yugoslav Soros
Foundation" in Belgrade/Serbia. In Croatia he uses funds
from his
foundation to hire influencial journalists or to discredit opponents of his
"shock therapy" as
anti-semites or neo-nazis. (From the EIRNA study
