Alex Soros, son of the famous billionaire George Soros and president of the bases of the open society, points to a left -wing climate group, which says: “All they do is talk about Palestine.”
In an interview with New York magazine in which he detailed his plans to finance efforts to frustrate the Trump administration agenda, Soros expressed his frustration with the leftist environmental group “Sunrise Movement”, which is very financed by organizations backed by Soros.
“What the hell did they do, by the way?” Soros, who is Jewish, complained. “We cool, and now all we do is talk about Palestine. It’s ridiculous.”
Duration of the 2020 electoral season, Sunrise Movement, whose website says it wants to “force the Government to end the era of fossil fuel elites,” almost a third of his democratic PAC funds backed by Soros and sixteen years.

Shortly after receiving thesis funds, Sunrise entered into a massive controversy caused by his Washington chapter, DC, publishing an anti -Semitic statement in which he promised to boycott any event copatrocated by “Zionist” Jewish groups.
In an October 2021 statement on “future coalition spaces with Zionist organizations,” Sunrise DC said it was decreasing to participate in a concentration of the DC state specifically due to the inclusion of the Jewish Council of Public Affairs, the National Council of Jewish Women and the Center for Religious Action of Juda Judaism, which said “all are aligned with and in the support of the Zionism and the state of Israel.” “
Sunrise DC called Israel a “colonial project” that “treats all Palestinians, as well as the black and brown Jewish Israeli, as second -class citizens.” The group is used to ask the organizers of the event to eliminate Jewish groups from participation, saying that the DC State Hood movement is “incompatible with Zionism.”
The statement was quickly criticized as an anti -Semitic.

A user named Blake Flayton, a Jewish podcast, shouted the group and commented: “You are intentionally pushing the Jews outside your movement.”
“You are associating the Jews in the United States with the actions of Israel,” Flyton added. “This is anti -Semitic. You are anti -sitios.”
In an published follow -up publication several days later, Sunrise DC apologized for pointing out the three Jewish organizations without mentioning other groups associated with the event “with similar positions”. The group doubled in its position against Zionism, describing it as “ideology that has led the Palestinians to be violently expelled from their homes since 1948”.
The group said it was “committed to learning and growth as we continually rely against Zionism, anti -Semitism, antipalestine racism and all other forms of oppression.”

This publication was also broadly transmitted as anti -semitic, with a user named Joel Petlin commenting that Sunrise was “trying to get out of a hole that dug for the same digging deeper.”
“* We apologize for pointing to 3 Jewish organizations when we must go to all those who do not hate Israel* It is not really an apology. It is simply duplicating against semitism,” Petlin said.
Last October, Sunrise Movement published a long Instagram post on the railing against Israel, saying: “Climate justice means freedom for the Palestinians.”
“Why? Because the oppression of Israel’s expression of the Palestinians means that some of the most devastating impacts of climate change suffer, and the constant bombardment of Israel harms the climate, finally damaging us all,” the movement of dawn continued. “While he committed genocide against the Palestinians in Gaza, the Israeli army, which is backed and armed by the United States, has released more carbon emissions than 20 of the most vulnerable nations in the world combined.
Democrats and leaders on the left have long called criticism or George Soros, who is a Jew born in Hungarian, anti -Semitic attacks. However, the financing of the Soros family of antiisrael progressive agitators throughout the country, including those who mobilized at the University of Columbia in New York City, have also raised their eyes.
Fox News Digital previously informed about the Minister of Diaspora Affairs of Israel and social equality, Amichai Chikli, saying that Alex is a mirror image of his father’s antiisraeli agenda.

When asked if Alex will continue to financing anti-Israel entities that hit the Jewish state, Chikli said that “it seems that the son is a replica of his father. We have no expectations that the son be a great Zionist.”

Chikli pointed out that the Soros Foundation “gives money to small radical Palestinian organizations in Israel that describe Israel as a colonial state and a moral sin.”
Fox News Digital communicated to open the foundations of society and the movement of dawn to comment, but Neithe responded in time for publication.
