Far-Right Hungarian MP Marton Gyongyosi Calls for List of “National Security Risk” Jews

---snip---

Reuters reports that 35-year-old Marton Gyongosi, a member of the far-right Jobbik party, called for the list after Foreign Ministry State Secretary Zsolt Nemeth affirmed Hungary’s desire for a peaceful solution to the Israel-Palestine conflict. Nemeth said that a peaceful resolution of the Palestine issue would benefit Hungarian Jews, Israelis of Hungarian origin and Palestinians living in Hungary.

While the party is rife with anti-Semitism and anti-Roma racism, it has taken a strong stand against Israeli crimes against humanity in occupied Palestine. Jobbik President Gabor Vona recently accused Israel of operating “the world’s largest concentration camp” in Gaza.

British Prime Minister David Cameron is among the many international figures who has also called Gaza a “prison camp” or “the world’s largest open-air prison.”

Often, those who criticize Israeli crimes are accused of anti-Semitism. After Cameron’s remarks, for example, Israeli President Shimon Peres accused the entire nation of Britain of being anti-Semitic. Former Israeli education minister Shulamit Aloni candidly confessed that such accusations are “a trick” that Israelis “always use” to stifle criticism, but in the case of Hungary’s Jobbik party, the accusations are firmly rooted in truth.

For example, in 2009 a newsletter edited by Judit Szima, a former Jobbik candidate for European Parliament, declared that, “given our current situation, anti-Semitism is not just our right, but it is the duty of every Hungarian homeland lover, and we must prepare for armed battle against the Jews.”
