#2 I suggest Soros goes back and rereads Karl Popper on the concept of an Open Society. In summary, in an Open Society the best approximate of the truth will emerge, notwithstanding the views of any individual or group of individuals. It has nothing to do with international law and nothing to do with the motivations of individuals and nothing to do with any individual's notion of what consitutes 'progress'.
