A leak of private documents of George Soros’ Open Society Foundations has been released, courtesy of DC Leaks.

George Soros is known to be involved in pretty much any revolution or coup around the world as well as heavily influencing politics. But these leaks provide direct evidence and show how deep and serious his involvement is. Here’s a quick analysis of what one can find.

First, there’s a lot of cash involved. The guy is literally pouring money into all these NGOs by either financing them directly or sponsoring their projects (which always have clearly defined goals).

The papers don’t mention final intentions directly but always use “promoting” with the following keywords:
* human rights
* LGBT rights
* women’s rights
* alternative news (which is really funny as they also boast their relations with mainstream media like The Guardian, Liberation, Huffington Post, etc…)
* democracy
* minorities
* gender equality
* migration

They’ll also claim to fight corruption and fascism. Of course, corruption and fascism always seems to happen within systems opposed to “EU values” (Orban’s Hungary, Putin’s Russia, …) and not where they really happen (ie. Ukraine, although they do recognize Ukraine is in a messy state).

Here are some of the techniques they use:

* influence new political parties (eg. Five star movement in Italy, Podemos in Spain, Syriza in Greece, …)
* organise conferences in universities
* organise exchange visits with activist groups between countries (eg. Ukrainian activists meeting Spanish protesters)
* get the support of mainstream journalists
* setup coalitions and make it appear it’s the only truthful news source (eg. Friends of Maidan)
* influencing EU MEPs
* kicking out Russian media broadcasts
* getting young people to vote in a certain way
* producing videos, documents, social media groups, …
* organizing protests
* praising migrations, LGBT, equality (of genders, never of salaries and social status)
* attack populist/nationalist movements

They try to brainwash these group of people:

* left wing groups
* young people
* feminists
* LGBTs
* migrants
* gypsies
* journalists

They blame:

* the right (refered to as ultranationalists and anti-semitic)
* Russia (Putin’s Russia, Russian propaganda, anything from Moscow is dismissed)
* Hungary (Victor Orban)
* anything that tries to resist the EU

They fear crackdowns on NGOs, which is something Russia initiated some years ago as they recognized the dangers these organisations bring ( http://soros.dcleaks.com/download/?f=/European%20Election/EUDO%20conference%20%20%202013%20Elections%20in%20Europe%20in%20times%20of%20crisis/economic%20voting%20in%20latvia%20and%20lithuania%20in%202010%202012%20ibenskas.pdf&t=europe ).
