The Open Society Foundation (AVF) is a Soros non-governmental organization, operating in more than 120 countries, and its stated goal is the development of democracy, human rights, and civic education. The founder of the foundation, J. Soros, was born in Budapest, Hungary. He has already officially donated more than $ 32 billion to AVF alone.
To which vision is this money being donated? In 1998, Soros wrote: “The sovereignty of states must be subordinate to international law and international institutions. Global policy makers are needed. We need a global society to support our global economy. ” Nations must be rebuilt and nations lost in power so that humanity can merge into a global “open society.” Soros finds many concrete tools for this purpose.
Many factors may have formulated your views and your mission to “build a new world.” Young Soros’s life must have been heavily influenced by World War II.
He was 13 when the Germans occupied Hungary, and this, of course, affected the Soros family as well. His father, sensing that difficulties were approaching, decided to divide his family and bought false documents for them, in the hope that they could hide their true Jewish identity and, by not being in one place, their chances of survival would increase. This is how Soros survived the Holocaust by pretending to be a Christian.
In an interview in 1998, when asked if he felt guilty for helping confiscate his alleged godfather’s Jewish property, Soros replied: “Not at all. Maybe as a child you don’t see a connection, but that wasn’t a problem at all. “When asked if he didn’t feel cooperating with the Nazis, Soros simply answered” no “and added that” if it wasn’t for him, the other I’d be in his place. “
World War II possibly created a distorted understanding of nationalism for Soros and his generation as they saw a perverted form of nationalism, chauvinism, which in the case of the Nazis evolved into imperialism, anti-Semitism, and non-related racism. nationalism in general.
As V. Sinica observes, “nationalism proclaims as a doctrine: every nation that seeks to do so must have a state and govern itself”, which is completely contrary to the hierarchy and occupation of nations, adding that “during the Soviet era the terrible oath was a “bourgeois nationalist.”
This thought that nationalism is something bad and aggressive has been spreading to this day. It is no longer said to be “bourgeois”, but it is still said to be “nationalist” with a supposedly discrediting subtext. All the media are full of it. “It is this distorted attitude that Soros-funded organizations constantly propagate. Denial of nationalism is an essential part of the vision of an open society.
What is an open society?
The Lithuanian Open Society Foundation explains that “the concept of open society is changing. It is flexible, incompatible with fundamentalism of any kind. The idea of openness is based on the idea that every action comes from incomplete cognition and that no one, no person or organization, creates or controls a monopoly of truth.
If a closed society were understood as a bastion of a truth, or, more precisely, a field, then an open society would be an impressive construct on the rule of law, respect for minorities and vulnerable groups, an inclusive economy and a participatory democracy.
Perhaps the most important conditions for the mature expression of an open society are critical thinking, freedom of ideas and their exchange, a culture of polylogue, free creation, and fair competition. “
Reading gives the impression that an open society is defined simply through the principles defended in every democratic constitution, with the additional mention that a truth does not exist and cannot exist. However, a closer look at the Foundation’s work around the world shows that its true vision can fit into one sentence: an open society is one that renounces identity and allows everything within to become the most diverse. possible. It could be added: even the cost of annihilation.
This, of course, is also reflected in the actions of the creators of an open society, interfering in political processes throughout the Western world.
Realizing that the Open Society Foundation and its Lithuanian branch, the NPO, seek to create a society without identity, many of their shocking activities become apparent.
For example, distributing leaflets inviting refugees to come to Europe. Soros himself said that “the strength of Europe is unrealistic”, saying that Europe cannot be closed to newcomers, but must open up as if it were a physical or historical inevitability. There is no point in following a responsible and fair immigration policy.
After 2016 In the wake of the British referendum in the wake of the EU existential crisis, Soros turned to the EU bailout plan. The philanthropist said the best place to start rescuing “Europe” would be to tackle the refugee crisis and remove a regulation “that dictates how many refugees each country must adopt.” A year later, he said that today, with its presence on the brink of collapse, the EU remembers Gorbachev’s Soviet Union. It is clear from the increased funding that the project will save itself to the best of its ability. A leaked Open Society Foundation document that appears in the media says the European refugee crisis must be accepted as a “new norm” and that the refugee crisis represents a “new opportunity” for Soros to influence global migration policy. . Nigel Faraj described Soros’ influence in Strasbourg and Brussels as “truly extraordinary”, noting that “an open society can boast of having held 42 meetings with the European Commission last year.”
In addition, Soros’ organizations have published a 177-page book detailing 226 trusted “friends” working in the European Parliament, meaning that at least a third of the seats in Parliament are held by “trusted allies” by Soros.
Thus, the Open Society Foundation is essentially an ideological interest group that lobbies, distorts parliamentary activity and understanding of what Europe is: many nation states with their own democracies, languages and traditions, or a rejection federal state of the “new Europeans” (enshrined in the EU Constitution) the greatest achievements of true European civilization?
In his text, Soros wrote in 2016 that between 300,000 and a half million Muslims a year must come to Europe. Although the Pope is silent, several Catholic bishops warn that mass immigration fundamentally conflicts with the idea of the West as a Christian civilization and signifies the Islamization of Europe.
Migration can benefit society if people who have the skills and want to integrate into the West are controlled and arrive. However, uncontrolled migration is a challenge to our national security, as evidenced by a series of terrorist attacks that have struck Europe disguised as refugees.
Activities of Open Society Foundations in Lithuania
The Open Society Foundation of Lithuania (NPO) has been operating in Lithuania on a short break since 1990. The fund was suspended in 2008 but was resumed in 2017. In total, the NPO spent more than USD 70 million, 4 million per year, in “creating an open Lithuania” (the NPO’s own wording).
In the early stages of its operation, this fund has also done a good job for Lithuania. S.Žukas noted that after regaining independence, “the general cultural policy in Lithuania has changed: the state tradition of supporting books has emerged. We then began publishing humanitarian and social publications, which were supported by both the state and the Open Lithuania Foundation (OSFL) established and funded by Soros, which supported the Open Lithuania Book series. Not only were hundreds of books published, but internships for scientists and artists were funded. It boasts of the foundation itself, 19 NGOs.
However, when foreign capital invests in educating the citizens of our state in the fields of politics and philosophy, there are ample opportunities to shape the worldview of the younger generation in the desired direction. The establishment of the so-called civil society organizations and the NPO Academy for the training of young researchers have left a special mark in this regard. The young academics who have passed the academy today are all in favor of the ideas of “openness” and “diversity.”
As already mentioned, Soros takes seriously the possibility of the collapse of the EU project and sees Central Europe as a region where the fate of the EU will be decided. The Union will or will not have the support of the countries of the region.
Although the Visegrad countries support the EU, they are extremely critical of its erosive values and leadership. It is therefore no coincidence that Soroš has moved to Lithuania in recent years, which looks very promising and whose public opinion of the EU is the most favorable in Europe. By creating its outpost in the Baltic States, Soroš announced in 2017 that it would invest 700,000 LTL in the activities of the restored Open Lithuania Fund. euros.
In light of the EU crisis, the new objectives of the NPO are a resilient society, a rethinking of Europe and an analysis of public policies. Examining the foundation’s reports, discussions, and contests, it becomes clear that the restored foundation’s primary goal is to increase public resistance to nationalism, “fear politics,” oppose laws that protect the natural family, and promote multiculturalism.
Media Foundation and Open Lithuania
The influence of Soros and the NPO in the country’s media is prevalent, especially among the country’s most influential journalists. Some Lithuanian media have direct contacts with the NPO and openly declare it. One such outlet is Freedom TV, which features NPO as its sponsor at the end of its reports. One of the most influential authors in the country, Edward Lucas, is also a member of the NPO. Ovidijus Lukošius, editor-in-chief of the news site alfa.lt and IQ magazine, is also the director of the Open Society Forum.
However, this connection is nothing compared to the fact that the Open Lithuania Foundation was the founder of the Lithuanian Journalism Center. The center was established in 1995, where today’s most influential Lithuanian journalists teach, train and certify new journalists from the country (an alternative to university). The Open Lithuania Foundation continues to be a shareholder in this center. One of the three members of the Board is LRT journalist Indrė Makaraitytė. Among the former leaders is Laimonas Tapinas, the father of Andrius Tapinas, who today has the broad support of the OSFL.
Soros’s footprint in Lithuania is much larger, but the obvious influence in the academic community and the media are the two areas of greatest concern.
Democratic governance of the state requires that citizens are not exposed to systematic external influence by pressure groups. In Lithuania, it is as if the whole world understands that it is harmful and unacceptable for Russia to try to influence the attitudes of Lithuanian society. However, Soros does not invest less in the re-education of societies, including Lithuania, in the desired direction. In fact, it is the largest investor in the world.
Is this influence acceptable to Lithuania? Is it not in direct conflict with the National Security Framework Law? To what extent is the Lithuanian state really controlled by Soros through scientific and media groups?
A self-respecting state would pose these problems.
