Fascist Hungary was an ally of Nazi Germany. However, Horty's regime was less brutal towards the Jews in Hungary. For example, Hungarian fascists were murdering Jews in occupied Yugoslavia but did not touch Yugoslav Jews who fled to Budapest.

Quote:

"Tens of thousands of Jews from surrounding states actually found refuge in Hungary, and Hungary's Jewish population exceeded 800,000 in March 1944. Hitler scornfully referred to Hungary as a "Central European Jewish island."

Berlin's espionage network was well aware of Hungary's peace-feelers and contacts with the West. When Hitler's patience ran out with the conservative leaders in Budapest, Nazi Germany invaded Hungary in March 1944, drastically changing the situation of Hungary and the Jews.

Hitler installed a pro-German government and appointed Edmund Veesenmayer Reich Plenipotentiary. The Nazi invasion lead to the destruction of Hungary's Jewry, which had survived under the conservative government. Adolph Eichmann arrived to direct the deportation of Hungary's Jews so that by the end of June, virtually the entire Jewish population of the provinces had been deported.

Enter our hero, George Schwartz a.k.a. George Soros

As Dave Tesla wrote:

"During the Nazi occupation, with German and Hungarian fascists rounding up some 300 000 Jews, young Soros posed as the Christian godson of an Hungarian official responsible for expropriating Jewish property. The 14-year old George sometimes accompanied his supposed godfather, helping to identify and expropriate the property of wealthy fellow Jews. So far from being a "Holocaust Survivor," George Soros was instead a Nazi collaborator.

In a TV interview, 15.4.93, Soros made the startling admission: "I actually went with him, and we took decisions on these large estates. That was my identity. So it’s a strange, very strange, life." To this day, Soros recalls those as "the happiest years of my life."

That means that Soros worked for Nazis under Eichmann. How he survived the Soviets, is a mystery. His father Tivadar was prisoner of war in Russia in WWI. Chances are that he signed up for Soviets at that time. (another similar mystery is Josip Broz Tito who became Yugoslav dictator)

It would be interesting to check wether George Soros citizenship application contains disclosure of his activity under Eichmann.
