Six month after Hungarian President Viktor Orban succeeded in driving his former mentor, and current neemsis George Soros out of Hungary, the Hungarian-born billionaire financier and his "Open Society" Foundation that has financed an army of liberal NGOs across Europe and the US has been driven out of yet another country.
According to the Guardian, Soros' Open Society Foundation is formally withdrawing from Turkeyafter the founder of its Turkey organization was arrested and charged with supporting an opposition figure accused of trying to overthrow the government of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
The organization announced its decision to withdraw from Turkey amid an interior ministry investigation seeking to uncover links between the organization and protests at Gezi Park in Istanbul in 2013. One of the founders of the Turkish OS branch, Hakan Altinay, was arrested along with 12 others two weeks ago and accused of supporting jailed Osman Kavala, an opposition activist accused of trying to overthrow the Hungarian government with mass protests. Kavala has been accused of supporting terrorism within Turkey, and Open Society has been accused of supporting Kavala.
Back in May, OS closed its Budapest Office and moved its operations to Berlin after the country passed an "Stop Soros" law aimed at making it more difficult for foreign NGOs to operate in the country.
In a speech last week, Erdogan accused Soros of trying to sow instability and discord in Turkish society, and of organizing destabilizing protests.

He's causing the same trouble here. So why isn't he removed from American Society. He's one of our enemies.
I have been calling for Soros ban from US. Why has Trump not kicked him his family and all his organizations out. Also confiscate all his and his families assets in the US and US territories ASAP.
Agreed, get them all out NOW!
I think you have to prove he has done something wrong first. Never happen. Same as Obama. Every one does their dirty work for them while they sit back and laugh. Need to give the CIA more power if you know what I mean.
I wish this country will throe this devil follower out of this country.
