Chikli’s statement comes two days after Musk compared Soros, a billionaire and Holocaust survivor who is at the center of multiple antisemitic conspiracy theories, to a comic book villain.
Musk tweeted “ADL should just drop the ‘A.'” The tweet implied that the group, which is the most prominent antisemitism watchdog in the country, should instead be named the “Defamation League.”
The attacks on Soros come as Twitter has faced criticism over its lax hate speech policies in the months since Musk bought the platform last year.
Musk’s tweet “smelled of antisemitism...[and] immediately brought a flood of antisemitic conspiracy theories,” the Foreign Ministry said.
Vice Media Group listed both assets and liabilities in the range of $500 million to $1 billion ahead of a sale to a consortium, including George Soros's hedge fund.
The antisemitic and racist tropes bring more than money. They paint bulls-eyes on the backs of prosecutors, judges, jurors, witnesses, reporters and other Trump targets.
Trump says he will be charged for allegedly paying off a paramour to keep quiet about their sexual encounter, and has sent a flurry of appeals calling for protests.
Jewish investor George Soros, a major donor to Democratic political campaigns and liberal organizations, is frequently targeted by conspiracy theorists.
