Don't you dare try to tell me what " European perceptions " were about the Jews ; especialy NOT in Hungary ! I ask, yet again : WHERE DID YOU GET THE INFO FROM ?

Where YOU living there back then ; have relatives , in Hungary, who have told you ? If not, then what book/s source this data ? I had family living in Hungary ( until WW II and 1956 ... not since the latter date, that I know of ) and have a great number of books about Hungary / Hungarian history. Through personal annecdotal history ( family & friends of the family ) , as well as through well respected authors, your " facts " have been thoroughly and utterly refuted. Oh, and before you want to tell me abot the very few who were anti-Semitic there, ever , yes, there were some; just as there were / are the same ( if not more ) here in America. It was NOT ; however , state instituted, nor even common place, in Hungary, as it was for millenia, in other European countries ! You paint with fallacious and spurious words AND too damned broad a brush .

Either quote from and tell me your sources, or stop trying to talk about things that exist ONLY in your own mind !

Here's a little factoid for you , dear ... Before WW II , Budapest , had one of THE largest and wealthiest Jewish Temples in ALL the world, which was the rival of any MAJOR Catholic cathedral ; not to mention the many other Jewish houses of worship in that city and throughout the country. Yeah, right, that's because Hungary was oh sooooooooooooooo anti-Semitic ! ( / sarcasm )

The above info ( mius my sarcastic remark ) comes directly from a 1925 Baedeker's suggestions on things to see and descriptions of IMPORTANT / interesting landmarks, in Budapest. Put THAT in the pipe you're smoking and making you hallucinate.

He's not only out of step, he's far removed from what Conservatism has ALWAYS been about ; except for the extreme fringe elements.

Oh yes, "conservatism" has always been about kowtowing to a foreign country -- and a socialist country, at that. "No pardons" -- that's unpardonable.

What's unpardonable , is your trying to use my nic in a spuruois way , as well as implying ( for your own purpose and disgusting agenda ) that I said something, which I did not ! But then, Justin, you do write for " PRAVDA " and we all know the history of that newspaper, dear.

You don't understand the meaning of the word " kowtow ". Get a dictionary and a tutor. Though a " foreign " word, kowtow has been fully understood , by most Americans ( gee, absent from class, the day it was covered, Justin ) , for a rather long time.

Just which country / countries is supposedly being kowtowed to ? Hmmmmmm ... beauty may be in the eye of the beholder ; however , your obtuse, blind biases, only distort facts, as far as you and a few other benighted individuals are concerned. Your silly straw man posts , are simply a waste of bandwidth.
