Certainly this is a place with a high emotional, intellectual and psychological load. Nevertheless it is less a monument set on the Danube promenade for (Jewish) Holocaust victims than a reminder of the Hungarian hypocrisy in regard to its longest surviving fascist "Weltanschauung" and political movement in Europe and the world: Horty, then Arrow Cross and now Jobbik ...
