Beck's Comments Scorning Soros Anger Jews; Was "A Jewish Boy Sending Jews to Death Camps"

Fox news reporter Glenn Beck has been criticized by many Jews for making Holocaust comments this week against George Soros -- a Hungarian-American financier -- who Beck said survived in Nazi-occupied Hungary as a 13-year-old Jewish boy by pretending to be a Christian.

Beck broadcast on radio on November 10, 2010 that Soros -- living apart from his parents in order to avoid apprehension by the Nazis -- "used to go around with this anti-Semite and deliver papers to the Jews and confiscate their property and then ship them off... Here's a Jewish boy helping send the Jews to the death camps."

Abraham Foxman, national director of the Anti-Defamation League and a Holocaust survivor, called Beck's comments "completely inappropriate, offensive, and over the top," according to the Associated Press website.

Some six million innocent Jews were killed by Nazis during World War II.
