Why Did Alex Soros Blow a Gasket Over Trump Striking Iran? Daddy Dearest Offers a Clue

March 12th, 2026 1:17 PM

Is it any real surprise that the crown prince of the most notorious left-wing empires in American politics is getting all bent out of shape because President Donald Trump decided to finally dismantle the murderous Islamist regime of Iran? 

Alex Soros got his panties in a bunch after the United States launched coordinated strikes on Iran with Israel, and praised the leftist-run Spain for grandstanding against the attacks in a March 2 X post that got ratioed into oblivion. “Why aren’t more Europeans standing up to an illegal war! Same with Canada! They make nice speeches at conferences, but do little. Spain is becoming the leader of the free world,” Soros whined, as if the world would have been better off with a bloodthirsty “Death to America” cult wreaking havoc across the Middle East.

Alex apparently doesn't see the absolute incoherence of angrily opposing action against the Islamists in Iran while he reshared the Open Society Foundations X post for International Women's Day that reads, "This International Women’s Day, and every day, we are called to show moral clarity and stand up for the rights of every person on this planet." Uh, hello!

But a deep dive into his daddy’s history gives a clue as to why Alex has come out full froth against the U.S. and making himself a useful idiot for the floundering Islamic extremists seeking to cling onto power like a barnacle in Tehran.

The Jewish News Syndicate reported on September 3, 2018, that “Iran admitted on Sunday that it had worked closely” with George Soros’s Open Society Foundations, “which has often been accused of promoting an anti-Israeli agenda through left-wing NGOs.”

MRC Business has documented how Soros poured small fortunes into a litany of groups that celebrated terrorist group Hamas’s October 7 genocide against the Jewish people as some sort of a Palestinian liberation effort. Then-Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif tried to downplay this connection by saying during a question-and-answer session before the Iranian parliament that Tehran’s work with Soros “predated his term and boast[ed] ‘regulating’ it.” 

Oh, but there’s more! Soros also dumped $50 million into a “network” of Iran-sympathizer groups connected to disgraced former U.S. Special Envoy to Iran under the Biden administration Robert Malley, according to a December 9, 2023, New York Post report. The irony was that Alex had been appointed as chair of the OSF board just a year earlier. Malley, who was one of the core architects behind the infamous Iranian Nuclear Deal under President Barack Obama, had his security clearance suspended amidst an investigation into his alleged mishandling of classified materials concerning “his dealings with his Iranian interlocutors,” according to Commentary Magazine.

The members of the Soros-funded groups tied to Malley, wrote Post reporters Rich Calder and Mary Kay Linge, “gained significant sway within the Biden White House — pushing to defang US sanctions on Tehran while advocating for a renewed nuclear deal.”

The problem is that there’s anecdotes like this showcasing some kind of hidden affinity by the Soros empire for the Iranian regime all over cyberspace if you look under enough proverbial rocks. 

When MRC Business published its January 2023 deep dive investigation into Soros’s connections and influence over global media — George Soros: Propaganda Powerhouse — one of the more alarming examples of connections to the Iranian regime involved his bankrolling and deep ties to powerful lefty opinion clearinghouse Project Syndicate, which boasted having its commentaries published 18,700 times in 2025 alone, being active in 156 countries, working with 573 media outlets, having its columns published in 66 languages, and having at least 140 heads of states as contributors. George Soros, who dumped at least over $1.5 million into Project Syndicate’s coffers between 2016 and 2020, had contributed at least 115 columns to the organization at the time.

One notable Project Syndicate contributor was none other than the anti-American and anti-Israel former Iranian President Hassan Rouhani. Project Syndicate allowed Rouhani to push propaganda in 2014 threatening conflict with the U.S. if an agreement on his country’s notorious nuclear program wasn’t reached. “By diminishing the prospects for a permanent negotiated agreement on our nuclear program, such behavior increases the likelihood that the Iran-US standoff will continue,” Rouhani wrote.

Rouhani also reportedly denounced Israel in 2021 as “‘the enemy’ of the Middle East in comments leading up to World Al Quds Day, which Iran inaugurated after the 1979 Islamic Revolution to protest the existence of the Jewish state,” according to i24News. Rouhani proclaimed: “‘The Zionists are the enemies of the region and of the security of the Palestinian people.’” 

Need we say more? Well, we may not need to, but George Soros himself does. In a 2014 interview that celebrated the Obama administration’s ongoing work with Rouhani on the feckless nuclear deal, suggested that “a new order would emerge in the Middle East” if the Palestinian, Iran and Syria conflicts were resolved. He took a potshot at Israel Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu, sneering that he was “dead set against a deal with Iran” simply “because peace with Palestine would end his political career in Israel.” It couldn’t possibly be because the Iranian regime under now-deceased Ayatollah Khamenei had made the destruction of Israel its inherent obsession, right? For goodness' sake! Even German publication DW ran this Captain Obvious! March 1 headline following Khamenei's recent assassination: " Ayatollah Ali Khamenei: The man who wanted to destroy Israel." This was never hidden knowledge.

But for Soros, Netanyahu’s retrospectively judicious warnings against dealing with Iran were inconsequential because “the broad outlines of a potential new order can already be discerned,” one of which being that “Iran may emerge as America’s closest ally, second only to Israel.” 

Holy crud. No wonder Alex is throwing a fit now. The twisted dreams of Daddy Dearest are getting blown to bits in real time!
