Over the last two days my feeds on all the social media have featured posts attacking George Soros. The last time this happened I actually paid attention. His backstory is so odd! I started thinking that there is more to this than meets the eye. Having seen the entire Jewish world of his childhood exterminated, how could he not have at least a little sympathy for the one Jewish State that may soon be the last refuge for the world’s Jews? What was the motive behind his massive funding of progressive politics? I could not wrap my head around the incongruity of an obviously intelligent man buying into the wackiest progressive theories this world has yet seen. So, I wrote a story to try to make some sense of it all. Here it is:
The Dream Jew
A young man was sitting close to where he stood, already connected to the machine that would transfer his young blood to his own body. He sat down and leaned back while the technician connected his tubes. He looked over at the young man, who was used to being ignored during these sessions.
Who says he's really Jewish? He had to put on an assumed identity as a kid. Maybe he's like the talented Mr Ripley...
