This film sounds like a pretty accurate description of the current state of affairs. I am not sure about Mr. Soros but I know the US intelligence community spends about 300 million a year spying on Iran and the intelligence services have a long history of subverting non profits and cultural groups in foreign countries.
Why wouldn’t they think the Intelligence community was using human rights groups?
