Today, Hungarian Jews suffer a level of anti-Semitism that is among the worst in Europe. Last year a Jobbik MP, Marton Gyongyosi, called for a list to be published of all people of Jewish origin, claiming they were a national security risk because they supported Israel in its disputes with the Palestinians.
Pointedly, the World Jewish Congress decided to hold its annual meeting in Budapest this year. When it did, Jobbik members protested that the Jews were planning to ‘buy’ Hungary.
The party also indulges in Holocaust denial, notwithstanding the mass murder of Hungary’s own Jews, with one Jobbik MP claiming that the museum at Auschwitz ‘may not reflect the real facts of history’.
