Viktor Orban Takes Battle Against Billionaire George Soros to Next Level

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban upped the ante in his political fight against George Soros, the mega-rich financier and philanthropist who reportedly just ploughed $18 billion into his “Open Society” foundation, the controversial NGO that is seldom shy about manipulating domestic policy in Western capitals.
Last week, Orban commented in an interview with Kossuth Radio that he has instructed his intelligence agencies to expose Soros-backed initiatives, which include opening up EU borders to mass migration, and the Hungarian nationals who support them both in Budapest and in Brussels.
“By employing the national security services, the Soros network that strives to influence European life should be exposed,” Orban said. “Another question is who are these Hungarians who are participating in this process from here, within Hungary?”
According to Orban, individuals connected to Soros are members of the European Parliament and other institutions that comprise the 28-member bloc. Orban believes these officials are not representing the views of the European people, but rather that of the Soros “empire,” working to create “a Europe of mixed population.”
Orban has staked much of his political career on making Hungary a “migrant-free zone,” going so far as erecting a barbed-wire fence along its southern border with Serbia. This position – which remains highly popular among his constituents – has nevertheless put him on a collision course with Soros, the Hungarian-born billionaire who said in June that Orban was running a “mafia state.”
Needless to say, that comment did not sit well with Orban, who said the remark amounted to a “declaration of war.”
“The only network which operates in mafia ways, which is not transparent… in Hungary is the Soros network,” Orban was quoted as saying. “This is why we must insist, and I personally insist on having a parliament decision on making these organizations transparent.”
Transparency, however, is exactly where the Open Society – which funds a vast network of global organizations, including Black Lives Matter affiliations and Antifa – falls short of the mark, which opens it up to all sorts of criticism.
Viktor Orban, however, is not alone in his fight against the ultra-liberal ideology of George Soros and the EU. Together with Poland, Slovakia and the Czech Republic, highly conservative, Christian countries that make up the so-called Visegrad Group, Hungary is challenging Brussels over its highly controversial policy of allowing millions of migrants – mostly escaping the (Western-made) war zones in the Middle East and Northern Africa – to flow into the EU unimpeded.
It would be no exaggeration to say the standoff has reached the boiling point and even jeopardizes the stability of the EU project itself.
In September, after the European Court of Justice rejected the Hungary and Poland’s appeal against being forced to take in refugees from Greece and Italy, Budapest’s foreign minister Peter Szijjarto called the ruling ”appalling and irresponsible.”
“This decision jeopardises the security and future of all of Europe. Politics has raped European law and values,” Szijjato continued.
There has been a revival of sorts for right-wing nationalist parties across Europe, which was energized by the euphoria over Austria’s Sebastian Kurz, 31, whose center-right People’s Party, a Christian Democratic party, emerged victorious in mid-October elections. The victory was attributed to the anxiety many Austrians feel about migration policies, which put a strain on budgets, while opening the door to potential terrorists.
Orban’s Fidesz party, which has capitalized on those very same fears, has experienced a surge of support, pulling nearly 40 percent support among registered voters. Incredible as it may seem, Hungary could become even more right-leaning, as the radical nationalist Jobbik is predicted to take second place in next year’s balloting.
Perhaps it’s time for the EU to meet Orban somewhere ‘near the border’ that now divides the continent – both politically and geographically.

For a total of sixteen years the US has been occupying Afghanistan after invading immediately after the 9/11 attacks. This act of aggression has already become the longest war in American history, overtaking the “record” that was held by the Vietnam War that lasted from 1964 to 1975. During this period, Washington would spend over 800 billion dollars on the so-called reconstruction of the Afghan nation. As a result of this “reconstruction”, the Taliban has been regaining control over the country, which has resulted in this group controlling over 40% of Afghan territory. Additionally, opium production rates have overtaken the ...
Needless to say, the important and portentous story of the attempted subversion of the Orthodox Church using the intelligence and political instruments still at the disposal of the moribund post-Christian West has gone virtually unreported, uncommented, and uncondemned. It concerns the multi-front offensive currently being unleashed against the most ancient and authentic Christian communion, the Orthodox Church.The epicenter of this externally induced commotion is at this moment in Montenegro, NATO’s latest “catch” in its persistent effort to secure or at least neutralize the Balkan rear, with a view to the projected conflict with Russia. One of the major remaining targets in ...
IntroductionAfter the catastrophic attacks of September 11 2001 monumental sorrow and a feeling of desperate and understandable anger began to permeate the American psyche. A few people at that time attempted to promote a balanced perspective by pointing out that the United States had also been responsible for causing those same feelings in people in other nations, but they produced hardly a ripple. Although Americans understand in the abstract the wisdom of people around the world empathizing with the suffering of one another, such a reminder of wrongs committed by our nation got little hearing and was soon overshadowed by ...

King Abdullah is being eulogized in the most unrealistic ways possible, from CNN designating him as a “reformer” to Chuck Hagel calling him “a powerful voice for tolerance, moderation and peace — in the Islamic world and across the globe.” Israeli President Reuven Rivlin takes the cake, however, by proclaiming that “his smart policy contributed greatly to Middle East stability.” None of these characterizations are true in any way, as Abdullah’s main legacy isn’t one of reform, tolerance, and regional stability, but of destruction, hate, and regional instability. Every contemporary Mideast problem except for the Israel-Palestine issue can be directly ...
We all know how the story goes. The Golan Heights is Syrian territory that has been occupied by Israel since the 1967 Six-Day War. It was then controversially annexed in 1981, despite the UN calling the efforts “null”, “void” and “without international legal effect”. Today it is still internationally and legally recognised as Syrian land, but Israel persists with its possession.Of course, such persistence can prove to be quite lucrative when the land is abundant in resources – especially land as fertile as the Syrian Golan – a generous source of gushing waters and game changing oil reserves.In fact, the ...
March 16, 2017, was the 49th anniversary of the My Lai Massacre, located in Quang Ngai Province, Vietnam. It was Saturday morning, March 16, 1968, when approximately 115 U.S. Army soldiers of the Americal Division’s Charlie Company, 1st Battalion, 20th Infantry, landed in helicopters just outside the village of My Lai 4. Over the course of the next four hours, these American soldiers, and their Military High Command, who were flying overhead in helicopters observing the massacre, took part in a horror show far beyond the human imagination. They took the term, “War Crimes,” and added a butcher shop to ...

Milo Djukanovic’s thirty-year-old authoritarian kleptocracy is killing Podgorica's Democratic efforts.Largely unnoticed in the wake of events in the Middle-East and the impeachment drama, another crisis is brewing in the Balkans. In Montenegro, thousands of people have been protesting a new law passed by the Montenegrin parliament and signed into effect by the country’s longtime strongman, Milo Djukanovic, which gives the government authority over properties that religious organizations in the country have been using for at least a century. Evidence of the problems the controversial new law creates can be seen in the widespread condemnation it has received from individuals such ...
In the aftermath of the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003 – an invasion which many Iraqis believe left their country in the worst condition it has been since the Mongol invasion of 1258 — there was much discussion in the media about the Bush Administration’s goal for “nation-building” in that country. Of course, if there ever were such a goal, it was quickly abandoned, and one hardly ever hears the term “nation-building” discussed as a U.S. foreign policy objective anymore.The stark truth is that the U.S. really has no intentions of helping to build strong states in the Middle ...

Russian literature fans will recall a moving spectacle from Dostoevsky’s novel “The House of the Dead”. As political prisoners are marched off under guard to Siberia, village folk are handing them food and other provisions that they will need on their long journey. The poor villagers are probably scraping the bottom of their own barrel in order to show Christian Orthodox compassion to those unfortunates. The allegedly nasty czarist guards do nothing to thwart these poignant expressions of humanity. Chances are (and Dostoevsky strongly suggests it) that they themselves feel considerable sympathy for their pitiful charges. Now, fast forward.Albeit depicted ...
The creation of the First Balkan Alliance against the Ottoman Empire in 1866–1868 in the light of territorial requirements of the Balkan states and nations at the expense of the decreasing power of the Ottoman authorities and the Ottoman state integration was the first political-military treaty on the mutual cooperation by the Christian Balkan states and nations. The secret paragraphs of bilateral military-political contracts between Greece and Serbia and Serbia and Montenegro in regard to territorial inheritance of the Ottoman Empire in the Balkans are the most important points of the treaty.Serbia became a leader of the Balkan coalition and ...
