The Real Agenda

McQ over at QandO has a post up about something George Soros said at the Davos meeting. Hyperbolic is the term McQ uses. I'd use a more pejorative word, but there is no real need to. People can read the words for themselves.

Apparently the little sojourn in Davos over the past week has brought the best out in anti-American rhetoric. Not willing to be topped by John Kerry's the "US is a sort of international pariah", George Soros, the bankroller of a $26 million dollar effort to unseat George Bush in '04, stepped up to the mike:

After asserting that the United States is recognizing the error it made in Iraq, Soros said, "To what extent it recognizes the mistake will determine its future." He went on to say that Turkey and Japan are still hurt by a reluctance to admit to dark parts of their history, and contrasted that reluctance to Germany's rejection of its Nazi-era past. "America needs to follow the policies it has introduced in Germany," Soros said. "We have to go through a certain de-Nazification process."

Good lord. One could point out that locking up or exiling from public life one's political opponents is the tactic of totalitarians like Fidel Castro. But then, that's rather obvious. As is the real agenda, I think. There's more in today's news that I'll be writing about later. The masks are slipping.
