Soros Scores on Scanners

It’s fomenting chaos, fear and rage among the American people; thus, it’s a safe bet that if we dig a little, we’ll unearth yet another Soros tentacle. Obama’s boss, George Soros, stands to benefit from the government’s use of body scanners at airports.

The machines are manufactured by the whimsically named Rapiscan which received a taxpayer funded contract for $173 million after the Panty Bomber near catastrophe. A former aide to Democrat David Price of North Carolina lobbied on behalf of Rapiscan. Former Homeland Security secretary, Michael Chertoff is also hustling for Rapiscan. And the de facto head of the Democrat party, George Soros is also profiting.

As for the company’s other political connections, it also appears that none other than George Soros, the billionaire funder of the country’s liberal political infrastructure, owns 11,300 shares of OSI Systems Inc., the company that owns Rapiscan. Not surprisingly, OSI’s stock has appreciated considerably over the course of the year. Soros certainly is a savvy investor.

What an amazing coincidence that OSI Systems shares an acronym with Soros’s phony philanthropic organization, Open Society Institute (OSI). Obama’s boss always thought we made too much fuss about 9/11—an event he found “inspiring”.

Hijacking fully fueled airliners and using them as suicide bombs was an audacious idea, and its execution could not have been more spectacular. (George Soros, “The Bubble Of American Supremacy,” The Atlantic Monthly, 12/03)

Yet he has no reservations about profiteering from the terrorist threat. It’s a universal truth—anything that makes Soros richer is going to be bad for America. Joy Tiz is the author of It’s Not Easy Being God: the Real George Soros, now available.
