Religion and patriotism are prime targets of non-governmental organization (NGOs), according to the head of an influential U.S. policy think tank in an exclusive interview with International News Analysis Today.
"Non-governmental organizations are acting as governments," declared Thomas Fleming, President of the Rockford Institute, a respected conservative policy analysis foundation, citing instances of NGO influence in Poland and Slovakia, and particularly in Serbia.
NGOs, private organizations with semi-governmental influence, are recognized as participants in international deliberations, including United Nations conferences.
Serbia became vulnerable to NGO influence after the Balkan wars of the early 1990s and its defeat by NATO following the 1999 air war.
Serbia is half of the Balkan nation of Serbia-Montenegro federation, successor to the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. The Balkan region, traditionally a flash point between the West and the Muslim East, is currently the focal point of a sharp attack mounted by NGOs on religious values and patriotic sentiments.
Fleming was especially focused in his criticism of George Soros and the Open Society regarding Serbia, emphasizing the Open Society's attack upon religion.
"In Serbia, religion is revered, and the (Serbian Orthodox) bishops are major figures - even the intellectuals talk about the bishops as cultural leaders -- and this is what the Open Society wants to destroy," declared Fleming.
The "international community" also appears determined to separate the nation of Serbia from Kosovo, an area closely tied with the history and culture of the Serb people, and assist the aspirations of the militant Muslim separatist who now dominate Kosovo.
Although Serbia officially regards Kosovo as a province, the final status of Kosovo remains highly uncertain, while the clearest trend is toward an independent state of Kosova.
Considering the Open Society's hostility to present Serb culture, the political dismemberment of the Serb nation and the establishment of a new Muslim state in the Balkans certainly fit into the agenda of Soros and the Open Society.
Part of the Open Society's effectiveness rose from its contacts with the Central Intelligence Agency. U.S. President George Bush, however, cut the connection between Soros and the intelligence agency, earning Soros' wrath, Fleming stated.
Soros is now actively working to assemble an international coalition to destroy Bush, Fleming asserted.
A recent BBC Internet article supports Fleming's position. The BBC reports that Soros is urging a "regime change" in the United States.
Any organization led by Soros would be extremely formidable, with billions of dollars in assets behind it, and some of the most powerful individuals in Europe and the U.S. supporting it.
The NGOs are determined to change the world. Unlike
the United States and other nations with election processes,
the NGOs are accountable to no one, and, with no check
on their power, they doggedly persist to create the
world in their own image and likeness.
