"His name is perhaps the strongest example of those who support anything that weakens nation states, they support everything that changes the traditional European lifestyle," Orban said in an interview on public radio Kossuth. "These activists who support immigrants inadvertently become part of this international human-smuggling network." Rights groups have criticized Orban for building a razor-wire fence on the border, tightening asylum laws and boosting his support among voters with anti-immigrant rhetoric. Soros, who was born in Hungary and is one of the biggest philanthropists in eastern Europe via his foundations and university, gives grants to organizations that provide legal assistance to asylum seekers. Soros said in an e-mailed statement that a six-point plan published by his foundation helps “uphold European values” while Orban’s actions “undermine those values.” “His plan treats the protection of national borders as the objective and the refugees as an obstacle,” he said in the statement. “Our plan treats the protection of refugees as the objective and national borders as the obstacle.”

Unless it's the Israeli border, then they're all for a wall.
I doubt that Soros favors that either. He is an open-borders ideologue and radical. Has been for decades.
A lot of them do, Pete Singer is a good example. Jews have been very prominent in the struggle to erase America's national identity, but for their own tribal homeland they want it the other way. What good for the Goys is not sauce for Eric Cantor.

America has been virtually the only nation to support Israel. The Jews in America are strong leftists. This isn't anti-Israel rhetoric, only observation of the American scene. Many of the Communists in The Soviet Union were Jewish.
