Mr. Malloch Brown, remember, was until last year Kofi Annan's deputy at the United Nations. In that position, he distinguished himself by spinning away the $100 billion Oil for Food scandal as little more than a blip in the U.N.'s good work, and one that had little to do with Mr. Annan himself. Last week, Mr. Malloch Brown was named vice president of the Quantum Fund, the hedge fund run by his billionaire friend George Soros. A former World Bank official himself and ally of soon-to-be British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, Mr. Malloch Brown would almost surely be a leading candidate to replace Mr. Wolfowitz should he step down. Not surprisingly, Gordon Brown cold-shouldered Mr. Wolfowitz at a recent meeting in Brussels.Read the whole thing.
Soros is also sticking his beak into Israeli affairs by working with his little thugs at Media Matters.
Furthermore, Soros funds Media Matters- purportedly a media "monitoring" group. However, the group has an agenda. The group has been criticized for trying to censor the news by its criticisms and for "spinning" the news so as to give its readers a particular view of the events of the day.Be very wary of any "news" you hear from that propaganda outfit.
One new group has been launched to deliver its choices of news and opinion to stovepipe to decision-makers and media outlets; the other group was formed to pressure media outlets regarding their presentations of the news. Seems as if an effort is being made to mold the news in a particular direction -- one that may not be favorable towards Israel or the American-Israel relationship.
