Sandak, a resident of the Bat Ayin settlement, was fleeing Border Police in a car with three other so-called hilltop youth on December 21, 2020, when the car flipped over, killing him. According to police, Sandak’s group fled from police before losing control of their vehicle. Sandak’s defenders view his death as a police killing; they allege that the police car hit his vehicle from behind, causing it to run off the road.

Attacks on Jewish people rising on Instagram and Twitter, researchers say
Researchers who study social media say that they are seeing an increase in anti-Semitic posts from far-right users of Instagram and Twitter and that the services aren't doing enough about it.
Separate researchers who were independently looking at the two social networks said attacks on Jewish people had spiked on both services ahead of the midterm elections on Nov. 6, similar to a rise in harassment before the 2016 presidential election.
Many but not all of the posts mention billionaire investor and philanthropist George Soros, the researchers said. Soros is frequently the subject of unfounded conspiracy theories, and his home was among the targets in a series of attempted bombings this month.
Which Jews are criticizing Jewish philanthropist George Soros?
It’s not just people in power who are calling attention to Soros: This spring, there were half a million negative tweets about him in one day, according to the Anti-Defamation League, which says the Soros theories “can serve as a gateway to the antisemitic subculture that blames Jews” for unrest in the US Many of the tweets, according to the ADL, blamed Soros for fomenting violence in the wake of Black Lives Matter protests.

Blinding is alternative to capitol punishment

So Glenn Beck Calls George Soros a Nazi Collaborator? Marty Peretz Said It First
https://forward.com/opinion/133132/so-glenn-beck-calls-george-soros-a-nazi-collaborat/
The part that’s gotten the most attention is a reference, repeated several times, to Soros’s childhood in Nazi-occupied Budapest, when Soros’s father hid him and his siblings with Christian families as their “godchildren.” As Soros describes in his own 2003 authorized biography, he went out at times with his godfather-protector to deliver Nazi orders to Jewish residents and — once, apparently — to inventory some property confiscated from Jews. Here’s how Beck tells it:
So when George Soros was 14, his father basically bribed a government official to take his son in and let him pretend to be a Christian. His father was just trying to keep him alive. He even had to go around confiscating property of Jewish people.Now, imagine you are Jewish and you have to go and confiscate the property of your fellow Jews. And you are pretending to not be a Jew and if anybody finds out, you’re dead. He actually had to endure watching people send off to their eventual murders, watching people gathering their stuff, sending them off knowing that they were going to go to their death.
As Beck tells it, Soros
used to go around with this anti-Semite and deliver papers to the Jews and confiscate their property and then ship them off. And George Soros was part of it. He would help confiscate the stuff. It was frightening. Here’s a Jewish boy helping send the Jews to the death camps.When he had to go over and take the lands from the people, his fellow Jewish friends and neighbors who were being sent to the gas chambers, I can’t imagine what that would do to a teenager, or anybody, to an adult. Well what did it do to George Soros?In an interview with Steve Croft, Soros was asked if he felt guilt at all about taking the property from the Jews as a teenager. He responded — no. He also said, quote, I don’t deny the Jews their national existence but I don’t want to be a part of it.
Congressman: Holocaust Survivor Is a Nazi Collaborator Who Organized Charlottesville Rallies
“George Soros survived the Nazi occupation of Hungary, and he has spent his life supporting efforts to ensure that such terrifying authoritarianism never takes root again,” his foundation said in a statement to Vice. “He was 14 years old when the war ended. He did not collaborate with the Nazis. He did not help round up people. He did not confiscate anybody’s property.”
“Such baseless allegations are insulting to the victims of the Holocaust, to all Jewish people, and to anyone who honors the truth. It is an affront to Mr. Soros and his family, who against the odds managed to survive one of the darkest moments in our history. He abhors violence in any form and has never funded it. Never has. Never will.”

אמת ליעקב בראשית פרק כז פסוק ד
(ד) בעבור תברכך נפשי בטרם אמות.
עיין במלבי"ם כאן שביאר בטוב טעם שכוונת יצחק בזה היתה לעשות מעין שותפות יששכר וזבולון בין יעקב ועשו, והינו שיעקב יקדיש את חייו לעבודת ה' ועשו ימציא לו מזונו, ועיי"ש32.
ועוד נראה בביאור ענין זה שרצה יצחק שהברכות יהיו לעשו, דהנה סוד הברכות שנתברכו בו האבות בעולם הזה - במעין עולם הבא - הוא משום שחייהם היו חיי קדוש השם והמלכת הבורא גם בארץ, וכמו שהביא רש"י [לעיל כ"ד פ"ז] בשם רז"ל וז"ל: עכשיו הוא אלקי השמים ואלקי הארץ שהרגלתיו בפי הבריות אבל כשלקחני מבית אבי היה אלקי השמים ולא אלקי הארץ שלא היו באי עולם מכירים בו ושמו לא היה רגיל בארץ עכ"ל. ולפיכך יצחק אבינו, בראותו כי יעקב איש תם יושב אהלים חשב כי הנהו כולו לד' ולא בזה בחר ה', כי לא למלאכים ניתנה התורה, וכן ארץ ישראל שנבחרה למדינה שעל ידי עבודתה יקיימו חלקים חשובים שבתורה כחיי עם שכולו עובד ד', ולא בזה חלק יעקב שאין לו הכשרה להיות עוסק בישובו של עולם, ולפיכך בחר לברך את עשו ולמסור לו טל השמים ומשמני הארץ33, כי משם תצא תורה ואורה לעולם כולו וליושביו, אבל מכיון שזכה בברכת משמני הארץ34 נתן לו כבר ברכת אברהם כי הוא כבר המושל בארץ, ודו"ק
Hearing Delayed in Complaint Against Andrew Cuomo Due to 'Potentially Defective' Filing
Apple has previously been criticized for his handling of the case. Cuomo's attorney, Rita Glavin, said that the sheriff of Albany County "didn't even tell the District Attorney what he was doing."
"But Apple's behavior is no surprise given (1) his August 7 press conference where he essentially pronounced the Governor guilty before doing an investigation, and (2) his Office's leaking of grand jury information," she continued in a statement. "This is not professional law enforcement; this is politics."

No, George Soros wasn’t a Nazi soldier
https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2020/feb/10/facebook-posts/no-george-soros-wasnt-nazi-soldier/
We’ve fact-checked a version of the same photo before, as have reporters at Snopes and the Associated Press. The photo isn’t fake or doctored, but it also doesn’t show Soros, despite what the text attached to it says. A quick reverse image search reveals that much.
In reality, the photo is of Oskar Gröning, a former SS soldier who was sentenced to four years in prison in 2015 for being complicit in the murder of 300,000 people during the Holocaust.
The Vilification of George Soros In Israel
https://momentmag.com/the-vilification-of-george-soros-in-israel/
There are many reasons why Soros is vilified in Israel, and one of them is clearly the liberal focus of his philanthropy. Largely through his charitable organization, the OSF, Soros gives nearly $1 billion a year to organizations worldwide that support democracy and civil society. Only a tiny fraction of this annual largesse goes to Israel: From 2006 to 2016, OSF gave an average of around $3 million a year, an amount that pales in comparison to funds provided by other American mega-donors.
Debunking the George Soros-was-a-Jew-killing-Nazi conspiracy theory
Glenn Beck’s three-part Fox News series about George Soros in 2010: “The Puppet Master.”
Soros was very rich and world-famous before the series aired. He had been sometimes portrayed as a hero, such as for spending billions of dollars on foundations promoting democracy in Eastern Europe. And he had been sometimes portrayed as a villain, as when he earned a fortune by speculating against the British pound in the 1990s.
But Beck turned Soros into a cartoon nightmare — using actual puppets as props as he told Fox News viewers that Soros was funding a vast web of liberal organizations and trying to “form a shadow government, using humanitarian aid as a cover.”
Beck’s treatment of Soros’ childhood was bizarre. In the second episode of the series, Soros was called “the son of Orthodox Jews.” In the third, Beck said, “his mother was wildly anti-Semitic” — a Nazi sympathizer who had perverted her son.
“He was a Nazi collaborator,” Jones told his viewers a few weeks after Election Day. “He went around and helped round up thousands of people, stole hundreds of millions of dollars, reportedly. ... He got off on it. The guy is fundamentally evil.”

George Soros is not a Nazi, explained
https://www.vox.com/2018/6/11/17405784/george-soros-not-a-nazi-trump
Donald Trump Jr. is more than his father’s right-hand man — he’s his most important link to the conspiratorial far right.
He tweets constantly about the “deep state” to more than 2 million followers, continually sending them the signal: Trump hears you.
And as the 2018 election heats up, many of Trump Jr.’s tweets center on billionaire and longtime progressive donor George Soros. Specifically, they focus on a conspiracy theory regarding the Hungarian-born Jewish investor: that he’s a Nazi.
So yes, George Soros is a billionaire with ties to progressive causes. But he is not a Nazi. Or a Nazi sympathizer. At all. Despite what one might see on Twitter (or Reddit or Facebook) — or even hear from members of Congress. When one Republican Congress member suggested to Vice News that Soros had funded the “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, VIrginia, last summer in an effort to discredit the right, he made sure to add that Soros ”turned in his own people to the Nazis.”
