Either that, or he must be making a list of all those “rabid lefties” and “anti-semites” over on Twitter. He has just left us with a warning about his new Sun column come this Tuesday. Wait a minute! Didn’t he and the Sun part company in 2007? Ah yes, this is the new guard which advocates “locking and loading”; he should be their star.
Anyway, he is ranting about George Soros, a billionaire who spends his money on left winged agendas. More specifically, ol’ Ezzy’s got his intestinal tract twisted in a pretzel because of Soros’ supposed ”Nazi” activities during the Holocaust. He is referring to this interview on Sixty Minutes.
KROFT: My understanding is that you went out with this protector of yours who swore that you were his adopted godson.
Mr. SOROS: Yes. Yes.
KROFT: Went out, in fact, and helped in the confiscation of property from the Jews.
Mr. SOROS: Yes. That’s right. Yes.
KROFT: I mean, that’s — that sounds like an experience that would send lots of people to the psychiatric couch for many, many years. Was it difficult?
Mr. SOROS: Well, of course I c — I could be on the other side or I could be the one from whom the thing is being taken away. But there was no sense that I shouldn’t be there, because that was — well, actually, in a funny way, it’s just like in markets — that if I weren’t there — of course, I wasn’t doing it, but somebody else would — would — would be taking it away anyhow. And it was the — whether I was there or not, I was only a spectator, the property was being taken away. So the — I had no role in taking away that property. So I had no sense of guilt.
Mr. SOROS: Not — not at all. Not at all. Maybe as a child you don’t — you don’t see the connection. But it was — it created no — no problem at all.
KROFT: No feeling of guilt?
Mr. SOROS: No.
KROFT: For example that, ‘I’m Jewish and here I am, watching these people go. I could just as easily be there. I should be there.’ None of that?
You see, Ezzy, of course, will believe anything his beloved Ann Coulter spews. His beloved Ann, who, as we remember, believes that Jews need to be “perfected” and I imagine ol’ Ezzy is included in this badly needed improvement category.
Rich for ol’ Ezzy to go neanderthal on a scared 14 year old in hiding and doing what he needed to do to survive while losing much of his family and watching the attrocities around him.
Really rich for Ol’ Ezzy, considering he so proudly and vigorously defended Marc Lemire, a known white supremacist who worked with the likes of neo-Nazi leader, Paul Fromm, called a bigot by the NattyPo’s Johnny Kay, of all people, for Gawd’s sake and former president of the Heritage Front, a Neo-Nazi organization, until it disbanded in 2005, against a Canadian Human Rights Commission, striking down Section 13. Yes, kids, he was feeling festive about it and probably still does to this day. All about free speech, supposedly.
What a hypocrite! He chastises George Soros for events he had no control of as a teen-ager, but vigorously defends thugs like Marc Lemire, who chose their own twisted, psychotic, bigoted paths in life and would more than likely defend other such neo-Nazis and holocaust deniers in his quest to stay relevant and attempt to close down Human Rights Commissions.
Between his defense of white supremacist neo-Nazis, his known bashing of B’nai Brith and the Canadian Jewish Congress, & his pathetic school boy admiration of Ann Coulter, one has to wonder who the anti-semite really is?
One also has to wonder if ol’ Ezzy would still be turning purple over Soros’ past if he were funding the tea-bagger movement along with the Koch brothers and/or World Net Daily instead of Media Matters?
I wonder if this will get me on his Anti-Semite hit list now? I’m starting to feel lonely.

Levant has never had to do what’s necessary to survive. He does what he does because he is a privileged piece of shit who always wants more. He lives off wingnut welfare and feasts on victims. He attacks a 14-year-old who did what he did to survive. With Levant’s history of lies, deceptions and moral corruption, he is no one to tear down another. If Levant were in the 14-year-old Soros’ shoes, he would be reporting directly to Der Sturmer in praise of the Nazis. Now, that is the real Ezra Levant.
None of us truly knows how we would behave in similar circumstances, so for that reason I am always hesitant to judge those who have lived through such times. Secondly judging someone on their actions of some 50+ years ago, while at the age of 14 is the height of unfairness. Unlike Levant etal, most people have grown and changed for the better since their childhood, and should be judged on who they are today as fully formed adults.
Frankly, I find the sudden wave of attacks from the BTs to be quite entertaining. By far the most amusing comes from BC Blue Dean Skoreyko, who references an article written by a member of the LaRouche Youth Movement:

Now there’s a source!

Yeah, I have to admit that BC Blue has proven quite entertaining as of late as well.
“Hypocrisy” suggests that Ezra is betraying a set of beliefs. In truth, he has few, if any, real beliefs to betray. He is a propagandist, with no more interest in facts – let alone broader truth – than the cheapest redneck on the worst late night talk radio slot in Bumfuck, Georgia.
He’s a bad lawyer, a failed publisher, and a shameless self-promoter whose star is rapidly setting.

Good point re: hypocrisy.
PS -for added hilarity, note that the original source of all this drivel is the Lyndon Larouche Foundation – famous American ultraright wing psycho and hatemonger, convicted of fraud, former Marxist, former Trotskyite, all-round scumbag.
Now for added ADDED hilarity, visit Steve McAllister’s site, where he first quotes Larouche, then scrambles desperately to pretend that there’s nothing wrong with quoting a crazy windbag with unsavoury associations.

Well, Balb, Scenty is nothing if not entertaining while playing detective, is he? His references to Larouche and BC Blue, another delightful individual, who, naturally, links back to…larouche!
Did you check his comments section? He ain’t doin’ too well there, defending his post, neither.
“Did you check his comments section? He ain’t doin’ too well there, defending his post, neither.”
I know, poor Steve. It’s a great recapitulation of all his lines of panicky defense:
- Oh, YEAH? SAY, you sound kinda suspicious yourself!
- I don’t BELIEVE you and you can’t MAKE me! Nyahnyahnyah!!
- Stop picking on me, I’m deaf.
Now that Shaidle’s married, I think we should set up a fund to pay for a date between Steve and Maria. If they actually figure out how to breed, they could conceivably produce the first entity on the planet with a negative IQ.

I dunno, Balb, do we really wanna see those 2 reproduce? Think about this for a second. Little Steve-Dodo juniors spouting Mommy & Daddy’s wingnuttiness to other impressionable children?
Okay, I take it back, the most amusing BT attack on George Soros comes from Steve McAllister, not BC Blue Dean Skoreyko. The former’s scattershot defence is as wacky as it is wild.
All this attention given to Lyndon LaRouche… I don’t imagine Dr. Roy Eappen is amused.

Ah the rancid Dr. Roy…he’s busy these days, spreading his own “Gawd Save the Queen; Save Lord Black from the evul leftie persecution; we must suck up to the HM PM; we must Americanize health care because, it’s wealth care for billionaires only club” and of course, his new tea-bagging club; their inaugural din-din is coming up next month, where, none other, than Kory, hisself, will be the keynote speaker!
Wait a minute! Think we can find Lyndon Larouche and send him to crash their little party?
