Glenn Beck has gone too far this time and should be fired.

He has revealed himself as anti-Semitic, a charge taken up by the Jewish anti-defamation league who have strongly challenged him on recent comments about George Soros.

Soros survived the Holocaust after his father bribed an agricultural official in his native Hungary to pass him off as a relative of his when Soros was 14.

Soros had to play the role and at one point the man took him to a farm which had been taken from Jewish occupants to do an inventory.

Here is what Beck says "[When he was] 14 years old, he had to help the government confiscate the land of his fellow Jewish friends and neighbors.

It is what beck said next however, that is so deeply offensive.

"H]ere's a Jewish boy helping send the Jews to the death camps."

Soros did no such thing. He merely accompanied the official, in his guise as his relative, to a deserted farm.

He was 14 years old and his parents were trying to save his life in desperate times.

What gives Beck the right to claim that Soros had aided and abetted the Holocaust?

It is utterly shameful that he would make such comments.

Sure he has the right to disagree with Soros and challenge him on his left wing politics.

But to accuse him of aiding the Holocaust is a bridge way too far.

Has Glenn Beck no shame?

Or has Fox no shame either?

They should fire him for this blood libel and make him apologize.

George Soros has sat on evey TV show in America and said he went on field trips with the SS troops to confiscate Jewish propertiy, he said he found it exhilerating and he got a feeling of power that he liked . It was not just a one time shot, he did this many times and even said he had fun. This man wishes nothing good for anyone, or any country, he has no loyalties to any one country, especially the USA. I dont' know why anyone gives him the time of day, his English is very hard to understand and he talks like a zombie, I think he is demented. I am always amazed when people interview him, and give him a platform of any kind. Glen Beck is not my favorite person but he didn't say anything about George Soros that Soros hasn't said him self, every chance he gets on every TV show and in magazines. He equates himself with God, he said it took him some time to get used to being a God but he is comfortable with it now. Tell me he is not insane.

seagreen, Glenn Beck knows too much about German history? And what are you implying. An interest in German history makes a person a NAZI. Should we ban people now from having an interest in German history. Of course he has an interest in German history, he is descended from German immigrants. What is wrong with wanting to know your own history. My parents are from England and Ireland and I know a ridiculous amount about English and Irish history, because that's my heritage. I hope under your rules, I'll continue to be permitted to pursue my interests in all areas of European history. Everyone has the right to know about the history or their own ancestors no matter how pretty or how ugly or how pleasant or unpleasant it may be. We all have the right to know our history. Is that now going to taken from us too?

This is just the same old Irish American political tradition we all know as licking the ass of the guy with the money, consolidating your power base, just trade a few of your rights and freedoms to get aligned with the money people. You know darn well Beck is not anti-semetic. It's just part of the groveling process at the feet of Soros. Beck has the right to his own opinion. I for one know the difference between someone who is anti-semitic and someone who is exercising their right to have an opinion about the actions and behaviors of their fellow human beings.

Funny the things you can read on the net. Looks like rooland is heading in the same direction as Ireland, Greece, Spain & unfortunately us. Sounds like Tasmania won't be necessary. I'll be moving my trailer next to yours seano. Make sure your daughters are proper bathed for my arrival.

I would think you would be worried about sodomy in Ireland, seano, rather than worried about telling lies about Beck. Your muslim buddies are going to stone your liberal socialist Irish friends.

George Soros is a dangerous "One World" lunatic! Beck didn't say anything "anti-Semitic" about him! Read what Soros actually says about "taking over", and study his activities around the world. Get your heads out of the sand, regarding Soros' and his "Goals" for the future!
