The Soros Network Exposes its Jewish Front Groups

‘Fighting antisemitism’ by funding antisemitism.

When the New York Times published the false claim that Israeli dogs were ‘raping’ Hamas terrorists, it was sourced to a Hamas-linked group that calls itself the Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor. After Jewish groups condemned it, a radical leftist groups that calls itself the Nexus Project and claims to fight anti-semitism popped up on X to defend the Times smear, which had been circulated to preempt a report about Hamas rapes, calling it “challenging and important”.

What united Euro-Med Human Rights and the Nexus Project is their role in the Soros network.

The Open Society Foundations, the face of the Soros network, had pumped over $2 million into Euro-Med, despite or because of its alleged Hamas links, and $400,000 alone in 2023.

The Nexus Project was created by Jonathan Jacoby, an anti-Israel activist, who had headed Peace Now, which received hundreds of thousands of dollars from the Soros network, and was one of the founding members and an executive director of the New Israel Fund, which served as a major vector for Soros money flowing to anti-Israel groups operating inside the Jewish State.

Now Alex Soros, the son of George Soros, a Nazi collaborator who admitted to helping in the confiscation of Jewish property during the Holocaust, has announced that Nexus will be one of the organizations benefiting from a $30 million fund to ‘fight Islamophobia and antisemitism.’

The move is a clumsy one because it exposes the ‘Jewish front groups’ like Nexus that have been advancing the profoundly antisemitic agenda of empowering Islamic terrorism.

Some organizations like Nexus, which work to actively sabotage the fight against antisemitism, and the Jewish Council for Public Affairs, a formerly venerable group hijacked by the Soros network into supporting antisemitic riots on college campuses worked best by hiding their affiliation with one of the primary funders of antisemitism rather than flying it publicly.

Other reported grantees are less of a secret.

Alex Soros personally heads the action arm of Bend the Arc, which has called for an arms embargo on Israel and defended the campus harassment of Jews. After the murders of Jews in D.C. and Boulder, Colorado by anti-Israel terrorists, Bend the Arc responded with a letter to Congress opposing any moves to prevent campus attacks on Jews while complaining that “police actions have been taken disproportionately toward pro-Palestinian protests.”

The Jewish Social Justice Roundtable is a grab bag of leftist groups including T’ruah, an anti-Israel group whose CEO Jill Jacobs had protested Israel and falsely accused it of genocide, and claimed that blowing up Hezbollah beepers was a ‘war crime’, New York Jewish Agenda, an anti-Orthodox and anti-Israel group co-founded by Rachel Timoner, an anti-Israel activist with T’ruah, who also serves as Senator Chuck Schumer’s ‘rabbi’, along with HIAS, the JCPA and other radical leftist groups. Many of these groups were already funded by the Soros network.

The move by Alex Soros has made it publicly obvious what researchers have long known about the Soros network and the coordination between the various anti-Israel elements of the machine. And the announcement has been awkward for some of the front groups leading to ambiguous statements trying to implausibly claim distance from the rest of the Soros network.

“JCPA is​ a legacy Jewish organization [that] already collaborates with other legacy Jewish organizations,” Amy Spitalnick, the CEO of the JCPA claimed. “No grantee of any foundation agrees with every position of every other grantee. We’ve been a clear voice calling out antisemitism wherever it exists across the ideological spectrum.”

That of course is not true.

Spitalnick had formerly served as the spokeswoman for J Street, the first major Soros attempt at creating a ‘Jewish’ anti-Israel front group, and the JCPA stopped being a “legacy organization” in 2023 and is now a Soros-funded anti-Israel and anti-Jewish operation. The JCPA is formally a member of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, which makes it a useful front group for the Soros network, but it coordinates its attacks on Israel and Jews with other Soros network groups like J Street, Bend the Arc, T’ruah and the New Israel Fund.

The JCPA has defended campus antisemitism and issued only two statements condemning the Oct 7 attacks, but three statements condemning Islamophobia after the attacks and five statements condemning the Trump administration’s crackdowns on campus antisemitism.

In the last month, the JCPA has issued press releases condemning the Supreme Court, DHS and defending the SPLC. The closest it came to a Jewish issue was condemning President Trump’s threat to bomb Iran. According to a press release by Spitalnick, “the President’s threats are deeply reprehensible” and that “any suggestion that this advances Jewish or Israeli safety is simply an exploitation of our community to advance horrific war crimes.”

The JCPA, like the rest of the Soros network, does not condemn antisemitism from its political allies, but does condemn any effort by Americans and Jews to fight against Islamic terrorism.

The JCPA issued no statements on the Muslim mob attacks on New York City synagogues, including the Park East Synagogue assault, but did take the time to defend Iran’s antisemitic genocidal terrorist regime. I could find no examples of Spitalnick condemning leftist antisemitism in the past several months, but she took the time to condemn Sid Rosenberg’s comments about Mamdani, and Rep. Randy Fine’s comments about Islam. All this is typical of the Soros network.

But the Soros network however works best when it looks like a facade of organizations who all happen to share the same opposition to Israel and Jews rather than a coordinated machine funded by the same radical billionaire family whose individual components don’t represent the Jewish community or anything greater than the wealth of a billionaire and his son.

These are not ‘Jewish’ groups, no one elected them to do anything, and the only reason they exist is that a small number of wealthy and powerful people, led by the Soros family, hate Israel, and seek to undermine it by creating a network of radical ‘enemy within’ groups to hijack the Jewish community and claim to speak for Jews because they have better media access.

That was something George understood, which is why he avoided posing with politicians and hid his cash backing for J Street, and what his childishly narcissistic son Alex, who inherited the political machine and can’t stop posing with politicians, doesn’t, which is why he put out a press release bragging about the $30 million infusion of cash into his extremist hate network.

Every media outlet has failed the obligatory story about the $30 million to ‘fight anti-semitism and Islamophobia’. Alex Soros has gotten his money’s worth of publicity, but he also exposed the front groups in his network as a coordinated inauthentic campaign funded by one man.

And that’s a mistake that will come back to hurt Soros and his puppet anti-Israel groups.
