Hungarian politicians at the Holocaust memorial on the Danube river bank in Budapest on April 16, 2014, during the official opening day of Holocaust Memorial year in Hungary Hungary began 70th anni­versary commemorations of the Holocaust on Wednesday amid boycotts and protests by Jewish groups which accuse the govern­ment of whitewashing the coun­try’s role in the mass deportations of Jews in 1944. Marking the day when Hun­garian Jews were first placed in ghettos in 1944, ceremonies were held around the country as part of “Holocaust 2014”, a program of events organised by Prime Minis­ter Viktor Orban’s government. In Budapest, President Janos Ader and Deputy Prime Minister Tibor Navracsics lit candles at a monument by the Danube com­memorating the thousands of Jews shot into the water in 1944-1945 by the Hungarian fascist Arrow Cross militia. A ceremony was also to be held at Budapest’s Holocaust Museum, with trees planted and candles lit to remember the 600,000 Hun­garian Jews who perished in the Holocaust. But the commemorations were marred by the absence of Hunga­ry’s largest Jewish organisation, Mazsihisz, which has said it will boycott all “Holocaust 2014” events. Over the last few years, critics have accused the prime minister of turning a blind eye to anti-Semitism and of stoking a chauvinistic brand of nationalism around the country. The far-right Jobbik party, whose members have been accused of Holocaust-denial, has been an increasingly power­ful force in Hungarian politics, finishing third in last week’s election. Relations between Orban’s government and the Jewish community have been especially strained over a planned monu­ment in the capital dedicated to “all the victims of the Nazi occupation of Hungary”, which Jewish groups say downplays the role Hungarians themselves played during World War Two. timesofisrael. com Easter Sprinkling in Hungary The English Page of the Hírlap can serve as a bridge between the non-Hungarian-speaking members of the fam­ily and the community.

Tradition dictates that participat­ing girls dress in traditional garb and take to the streets, where boys will throw buckets of water at them as they run past. The ritual is rooted back to pre-Christian times in Hungary’s tribal past as far back as the second century AD, and is meant to promote fertility, pbs.org Warship that fired first shots of WWI now a gravel barge in Serbia The Bodrog, a heavily armored vessel launched in 1904 and equipped with the most advanced naval technology of the time, shelled the Serbian capital just before midnight on July 28, 1914. The Bodrog was built at a shipyard in Budapest. The ship’s 120 mm guns fired the first shots of a conflict that would last four years, leave mil­lions of people dead and devastate Europe. The ship later was seized by Serbia as war loot. The aging Bodrog currently uses the vessel as a gravel barge. Calls for the ship’s preserva­tion as a floating museum led to the government granting the vessel limited heritage protection in 2005, a move that has kept the Bodrog from ending up on the scrap heap. “This monitor is part of a broader heritage, Serbian and Austrian history, and a unique item that still exists. It should be preserved, reconstructed,” Danilo Sarenac, a member of the Institute of Contemporary His­tory in Belgrade, foxnews.com Ismerőseinek, barátainak és üzletfeleinek A •• Áldásos Húsvéti Ünnepeket kíván Hauer Gyula HAUER’S GERMAN CAR SERVICE (818) 426-3620 „(Erősítse egészségét, növetje szépségét és 6oCcfogságát” Mindezt elérheti rendelőnkben: Susan Pekarovics, M.D. Belgyógyász szakorvos, endocrinológus, Fibromyalgia specialista Klinikánkon megtalálható: 1.
