So the biggest criticism of Soros is that he's not as effective as the Koch brothers, the Mercers, Robert Murdoch...?

yep. and it helps that he’s jewish because it plays into a lot of anti semitic conspiracies. just funny because the government is actually 100 pct controlled by the people you mentioned right now. i’ve never seen soros be nearly as powerful as mercer’s, koch’s, and adelson

FWIW, Soros has himself been accused of anti-Semitism by the AD, among others.

Are you referring to this? http://www.rense.com/general44/soros.htm

The ADL complains that any statement that Jews contribute to anti-Semitic feelings, is anti-Semitic. This is also a tactic that right-wing Israeli politicians use to deflect criticism.

Do you mean the ADL? Citation? Because googling "ADL Soros" finds lots of examples of the ADL condemning attacks on Soros as anti-Semitic, but nothing I can find credibly sourced of them condemning Soros as anti-Semitic.
