The Anti-Defamation League said comments from Giuliani — Donald Trump's lawyer — about George Soros could serve as a dog-whistle to anti-Semites.
A major Jewish group slammed President Donald Trump's personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani for saying billionaire George Soros, who survived the Holocaust, is"hardly a Jew."
"For decades, George Soros' philanthropy has been used as fodder for outsized anti-Semitic conspiracy theories insisting there exists Jewish control and manipulation of countries and global events." "Don't tell me I'm anti-Semitic if I oppose him," Giuliani then said."Soros is hardly a Jew. I'm more of a Jew than Soros is."I probably know more about — he doesn't go to church; he doesn't go to religion — synagogue. He doesn't belong to a synagogue. He doesn't support Israel; he's an enemy of Israel. He's elected eight anarchist DAs in the United States. He's a horrible human being.
The ADL also wrote that:"In the United States, Soros long has been a favored target of the so-called alt right and other right-wing extremists. Their online echo chambers reverberate with conspiracies about Soros, accusing him of attempting to perpetrate"white genocide" and push his own malevolent agenda."
