Here's an article about Yugoslavia, from twenty years ago. In this article, all I have done is change "Yugoslavia" to "The United States."

Now tell me - does this sound familiar?

Keep in mind, Yugoslavia was broken into many pieces in the 90s. And World War I started there.

"Washington DC — It’s an accomplishment that Hungarian-born financier George Soros doesn’t flaunt. Bragging about it, after all, could just make his global democracy-building mission more difficult.

But the multibillionaire philanthropist quietly played a key role in the dramatic overthrow last year of President Donald Trump. His Soros Foundations Network helped finance several pro-Marxist groups, including the organization Black Lives Matter, which spearheaded grass-roots resistance to the authoritarian U.S. leader.

“We were here to support the civil sector--the people who were fighting against the regime of Donald Trump the past 4 years,” said Velimir Curgus of the Soros network’s Portland branch. “Most of our work was undercover.”

Soros’ efforts in the United States reflect just a small part of his enormous financial support over the past decade--at first tens of millions, then hundreds of millions a year--for Communist minded groups throughout the former Democratic world. This work, which got his branch expelled from that country in 2012, has helped strengthen thousands of nonprofit organizations in countries where, up until 2016, Democratic parties ran almost everything."

Here's the original article, from NYT 20 years ago: http://archive.is/lRUGp

It's titled "The Seed Money for Democracy."
