(Reuters) – Anti-Wall Street protesters say the rich are getting richer while average Americans suffer, but the group that started it all may have benefited indirectly from the largesse of one of the world’s richest men.
There has been much speculation over who is financing the disparate protest, which has spread to cities across America and lasted nearly four weeks. One name that keeps coming up is investor George Soros, who in September debuted in the top 10 list of wealthiest Americans. Conservative critics contend the movement is a Trojan horse for a secret Soros agenda.
Soros and the protesters deny any connection. But Reuters did find indirect financial links between Soros and Adbusters, an anti-capitalist group in Canada which started the protests with an inventive marketing campaign aimed at sparking an Arab Spring type uprising against Wall Street. Moreover, Soros and the protesters share some ideological ground.
“I can understand their sentiment,” Soros told reporters last week at the United Nations about the Occupy Wall Street demonstrations, which are expected to spur solidarity marches globally on Saturday.
Pressed further for his views on the movement and the protesters, Soros refused to be drawn in. But conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh summed up the speculation when he told his listeners last week, “George Soros money is behind this.”

"Spooky Dude" of course.
I knew it all along.
And the 420 friendly crowd that is participating is his cheap, underpaid labor that doesn't have a clue.
My bad,- "unpaid labor".
Actually, they are not "unpaid" nor "underpaid". Check this out:
http://www.examiner.com/conservative-in-spokane/a…
Their are several George Soros "Spooky Dude" front groups involved, as well as the Democrat Party (which, I suppose, is a G.S. front group itself!!)
Sorry, I meant "there" not "their". (I hate it when that happens).
His well financed Move-on organization is really pushing for people to come out and help keep the "occupation" going!! RIGHT – ON! SORROS!! with Leftists & Liberals!!
Perhaps "Spooky Dude" should redistribute some of his wealth to the stoners
that are occupying..
And yes, ireuel, they need to go occupy the shower instead.
REMEMBER … Obama has to have an unrest in order to DECLARE a national state of emergency which allows him to have marshall law in America … create a crisis is in his Alinsky playbook and alas, the Iran episode gives the Attorney General a voice to say "we are too busy with this Iran deal to spend time talking about Fast and Furious … just listen to the echo of terminology in the polititions … Pelosi, Geitner, Obama and news puppets. All of them are under the indirect command of General Soros!!!
The people behind the Obama puppet now realize he is going to be a one term president and they have to put their agenda on fast forward. Watch for everything to escalate. What ever they are planning has to be done and in place before the 2012 election. I could be wrong, but what if I'm right?
I have thought that for some time and I believe you are right.
Polly,
I think you mean "martial law"
Absolutely martial law … thanks for reminding me … but I realized afterwards. Spell check would not catch that either … I am just now learning to read and spell. ha
Cold this guy Soros be the anti-Christ?
I have heard NO but Obama might be a 'forerunner' to the aniti-Christ however but we know one thing for sure … CHRIST IS COMING and will have VICTORY over sin and death … so why do I ever complain? REJOICE in the Lord always … and again, I say REJOICE. Are you with me?
Mr. Soros background, involved intricately with the Nazi's during WWII, his family changing their name to Soros in order to duck the Nazi "Final Solution" in which they intended to exterminate the Jews, his previous dealings in other countries to destroy their economy, shows he is the epitome of evil. Certainly his money is behind this. He wants to destroy America's economy from within. Then Obama can declare martial law and suspend elections, thereby declaring himself "President Extraordinaire". Mr. Soros wishes to destroy the U.S. Constitution, particularly the 2nd Amend., disarm the general public, thus when they knock on your door at 3 a.m. they don't have to fear meeting an armed citizen behind the door. (Same thing Hitler did in Germany in the late 1930's).
Thanks for a more thorough explaination … I knew that but it is always good to repeat … plus it helps me to learn how to spell "martial law" … duh
Is " Spooky Dude" a US citizen? I read that he is here on a visa. How many countries, is he currently listed as "Persona Non Grata ?" I know that France is one, as well as an Asian country for his efforts to ruin their economy,. yet he has no problem in visiting the White House.
He has so much money in banks all around the world I would expect … it would be hard to decide where to have allegience. Perhaps that is why he and Obama and Hillary are all for a ONE WORLD BANK … as that's the expected trend right out of the Bible … wonder how they like being a part of Biblical prophecy???
Soros, as a Jew, should have been in one of the camps also. Instead, he roamed thru them stealing everything he could get his hands on. How do you think he got started otherwise??
Weather underground initially financed from Russia, with love? Today we find Ian Fleming to be correct and astute. Finacially independent, and without a country, our villan G.S. works to re-order the world.
Unfortunately, there is an American immigration law which states that if a rich foreigner "invests" $500,000 or more in the United States, such a foreigner will be given a Green Card for permanent residency in the United States. Yet, honorable, qualified, ordinary foreigners, who wish to immigrate legally to the United States, must wait months or years to get a visa–if ever. It is time for "Spooky Dude" George Soros to "Move-On.org" out of this country with a good kick in his rear. This man is dangerous and means ill for our country. Send him to France where he has been indicted for money shenangans.
You are correct about the need to kick him out of our country, but you can bet none of the demos or obummer are going to do it. They are in bed with him. What he is doing to us is the same thing al O. is doing, he just uses money. That is TERRORISM and since he has a visa it might also be TREASON. He should be in JAIL.
Yep, money talks
The name sounds right. He is a good friend of the leaders of this country. Some reason this get together is not being put down like most of these do. I still say that the wrong types can get in there and make a big mess of it.
Obama sent troops to Uganda for protection because Soros has financial investments there, not because he was being a good samaritan. You can bet that Soros is behind all of what's going wrong in this country and outside of it. The puppeteer is 'always' holding the strings for puppet Obama.
Obummer, Acorn, Unions,Soros, and God knows who else. The Federal printing press hasn't stop running since the anti-Christ put his Muslim feet in the white wood shed. All the money is funneled through all his pet projects under false titles. Soros was run out of Europe for the same problems he is causing here in U.S. Go on line and get his bio. It gives you a clear look at this evil, self appointed director of destroying this country with the help of the bum looking for change.
I don't know why people who hate it here so much come here inthe first place. Soros is a Hungarian. He should go there.
Everyone seems to want to be here for the free lunch….like the Mexicans and other illegal immigrants. IF they want to be here so much…..why are they trying to ruin it?
I will never understand why they want to destroy the best country in the world.
