-Caveat Lector-
I should briefly mention something that is perhaps obvious. The
activities of investment bankers span a spectrum that ranges from
passive to active. All investment banking decisions are based on
predictive models of the economy (or portions thereof, and
integrating sociological context to varying degrees). In purely
passive investment banking, the banker's investment has no effect on
the model. In the most active investment banking, the banker's
investment results in a new socio-economic circumstance, requiring
the replacement of existing models with new ones. As the magnitude of
the investment increases, and as the economic leverage of the
investment rises, there is an unavoidable shift from passive to
active. A microloan to a shopkeeper in a small town in Africa can be
very close to purely passive banking; the currency and commodity
manipulations of the Rothschilds and their operatives (e.g. George
Soros) involve highly active investments. The most active investments
are in revolutionary technologies and longitudinal programs of socio-
economic engineering. The social control potential of investment
banking is obvious, since even in its most basic form it constitutes
a system of economic subsidy and censorship.

George Soros' "Parallel Anti-War Media/Movement"
by bob feldman
Perhaps Amy Goodman should finally make full disclosure of all
foundation grants that either the Pacifica Foundation, WBAI,
Democracy Now, WBAI, KPFA, the Indymedia Centers, Free Speech TV,
Deep Dish TV, the Pacifica Campaign or the Downtown studio from which
she broadcasted in 2000 and/or in 2001 have received since 1992?
Regarding George Soros's U.S. alternative media
gatekeeping/censorship network, the following recap might be of use
to U.S. grassroots anti-war activists whose political work is not
being subsidized by Establishment Foundations such as Billionaire
Global Speculator George Soros' Open Society Institute:
1. In 1999, George Soros's Open Society Institute gave a $50,000
grant to the Nation Institute "to support project to improve
performance and reach of Radio Nation, weekly public radio news and
commentary program." George Soros' personal advisor for politics,
Hamilton Fish III, is also a top executive at The Nation Institute.
2. In 1999, George Soros's Open Society Institute gave a $50,000
grant to the National Federation of Community Broadcasters, which
used to be headed by former Pacifica Foundation Executive Director
Lynn Chadwick.
3. In 1999, George Soros's Open Society Institute apparently gave a
$125,000 grant to the Citizens for Independent Public Broadcasting
[CIPB} group (on whose board sits FAIR/CounterSpin co-host Janine
Jackson) "to cover administrative and start-up costs for launching
national campaign entitled Citizens for Independent Broadcasting."
4. In 1999, George Soros's Open Society Institute gave a $78,660
grant to Don Hazen's Institute for Alternative
Journalism/IMI/Alternet in San Francisco "to fund start-up of Youth
Source, a youth Web site which will be part of a larger web poral,
Independent Source."
5. In 1999, George Soros's Open Society Institute gave a $126,000
grant to the International Center for Global Communications
Foundation "toward launch of Media Channel, first global media and
democracy supersite on the Internet."

totalling $118,000, to the Internews Network.
7. In 1999 George Soros's Open Society Institute gave a $12,000 grant
to Downtown Community Television Center. (There's a possibility that
this was the group which provided studio facilities for Democracy Now
after the 1999 WBAI Christmas coup).
8. In 1999, George Soros's Open Society Institute gave a $150,000
grant to the Fund for Investigative Journalism. (Is this the same
media group which provided some funding for KPFA's Dennis Bernstein
during the 1990s?)
9. In 1999, George Soros' Open Society Institute gave a $35,000 grant
to American Prospect magazine.
10. In 1999, George Soros's Open Society Institute gave a $30,000
grant to the Center for Defense Information.

totalling $393,000, to the Tides Foundation.
18. George Soros's Open Society Institute recent gave a $102,025
grant to Radio Bilingue.
19. George Soros's Open Society Institute has also apparently been
providing funds to subsidize a "parallel left" section of the
prisoner solidarity movement. Critical Resistance, the Prison
Moratorium Project, the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights and The
Sentencing Project are all being funded by George Soros's Open
Society Institute.
20. In 2001, George Soros's Open Society Institute also gave grants
to help subsidize the Jews for Racial and Economic Justice group, the
Malcolm X Grassroots Movement group, the Million Mom March group and
the Center for Investigative Reporting.
21. After 9/11, George Soros's Open Society Institute gave a $75,000
grant to the American Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee Research
Institute, a $250,000 grant to the ACLU and a grant to the LCEF group
on whose board Mary Frances Berry used to sit.

Billionaire Soros's War Stock Investments
Like the former Corporation for Public Broadcasting Chairperson who
owns a major chunk of the Columbia University-linked Nation magazine,
Clinton-Gore Campaign Fundraiser Alan Sagner, the global speculator
whose Open Society Institute gave KPFA a $40,000 grant in 1995 has
some interesting special economic interests.
In his 1990 book The New Money Masters, John Train has a chapter
entitled "George Soros: Global Speculator" in which he indicated how
Soros obtained his surplus wealth:
"Soros...has always had partners on the management side, such as Jim
Rogers...In 1969, aged 39, he [Soros] ...joined with Jim Rogers to
found Quantum Fund... "It is not registered with the SEC...so the
shareholders are foreigners, mostly Europeans...It engages in
multidirectional international speculation in commodities, stock, and
bonds...Thanks to Rogers, the fund was one of the first to recognize
the investment merits of defense stocks."
According to The New Money Masters book, Soros's business partner in
the 1970s and early 1980s, Jim Rogers, "became the largest outside
shareholder of Lockheed in 1974."
As of 1989, the portfolio of Soros Fund Management Equity Holdings
included $27 million worth of Boeing stock, $106 million worth of RJR
Nabisco tobacco company stock, $3.5 million worth of Lockheed stock,
$2.2 million worth of CBS stock, $2.3 million of Time Inc. stock,
$12.8 million worth of Warner Communications stock and $6.5 million
worth of Wal-Mart stock.
A Senior Fellow at the Soros Foundation's Open Society Institute who
is a former president/ceo of Twin Cities Public Television in St.
Paul, Minnesota "is aiding the Open Society Institute in considering
issues of professionalism in media and related public policy
questions," according to the Soros Foundation/Open Society Institute
website.
