    Why would you include:

    Later that year at age 14, Soros posed as the Christian godson of an official of the collaborationist Hungarian government’s Ministry of Agriculture, who himself had a Jewish wife in hiding

    The topic you brought up was "unsavory service" a kid was pressed into. Plenty of people who survive the Shoa and Holocaust did it precisely by having other people claiming to be their parents.

    My grandmother was a kid herself (blue eyed, blond) during that time and was downstairs to another family while there was a check by the Nazis, the daughter of a Jewish family took her place so she would not get deported. The parents were deported at some point, though and likely died in KZ Sachsenhausen.

    She would later be fetched by people the parents knew, but her fate is not known to us, even after having my grandmother being a contemporary witness and working together with survivors of the Shoa.

    The point is that even before the Shoa it wasn't uncommon for Jewish parents who had kids to try to safe their offspring's lives and hid them during pogroms with Christians, but the Ghetto was a bad place and to include one venue of potential escape framed as unsavory is bad.

    In any case why would you repeat claims of that nature when in any case?

      Because elsewhere in the thread in addition to the distributing deportation papers (the process nazis used to fill the concentration camps) claim the claim was made that he survived the holocaust by living with the collaborationist government. Which seems to be true.

      I replied to the post because they asked for a source and it took less than sixty seconds to find one for both claims, in soros’ own voice.

      I did not bring up unsavory service. My first reply in this thread is the one you replied to.
