A Budapest court of appeal on Thursday issued a legally binding ruling banning the Hungarian Guard, the uniformed arm of the radical nationalist party Jobbik.
The decision applies to the Hungarian Guard Cultural Association for the Preserving of Traditions.
The appellate court upheld a decision of December 2007, not long after the Guard’s first of a series of anti-Roma marches in Tatarszetgyorgy, a village in central Hungary, which later became known for the murder of a Roma man and his young son and other anti-Roma violence.
Today’s decision rules that the Guard’s activities overstepped its rights as an association and curtailed liberties of the Roma, both of which justify its banning.
Jobbik registered the Magyar Garda in June 2007 as a cultural organisation to “prepare youth spiritually and physically for extraordinary situations when it might be necessary to mobilise the people.” Guard members wear black uniforms and regularly hold military-style training.
Orban Kolompar, chairman of the National Gypsy Authority, welcomed the court’s decision. He told MTI that the binding ruling was good for Roma and the whole country.
“The sober mind has won, and so has democracy, the Roma and the whole country,” he said.
Kolompar said he trusted that the court had seen that the Guard’s activities had harmed the Roma and the whole of society.
Fortunately for the Italians, they don’t have to please Mr. Kolompar and the Jewish lobby. They just set up their own uniformed citizen patrols. They call it the National Guard and it’s legal, approved by the parliament. Apparently Italy is for the Italians.

Of course the Italians cleaned out their jewish population a decade before Hungary scrambled to accomplish it realizing the need in the last months of the war unsuccessfully.
Horthy missed the boat by a long shot. The Italians may thank Mussolini for their relative breathing room from these rats.
Also, in the United States the Italian immigrants hated the jewish ones head to toe and despised them excommunicating everyone in their midst who mingled with them, did business with them.
Hence their advantage.
Godot:
The Italian “National Guard” has been approved by the Parliament, but only yesterday. And it being condemned by anyone with a memory for the random atrocities of the Mussolini-period Blackshirts — who, let’s remember, were killing fellow Italians.
Beju:
I don’t know what you’re smoking, but your account of Ital0-Jewish relations in the US is a bunch of crap. The cultural affinities between the groups go back to the late 19th century, when both emigrated to the US and lived cheek-by-jowl on the lower east side of New York City. For example, when Italians and Jewish lawyers were not allowed to join New York law firms because of discrimination, they formed their own, joint firms – which exist to this day.
And no, I’m not Jewish — but I am Italian AND Hungarian, unlike you pair of pseudo-Magyars.
Godot,
Did you actually read the link you pasted? At no
point does it say Parliament approved the National
Guard. In fact…Cut and Paste from the BBC article
link: “But Interior Minister Roberto Maroni said the
group, which sports beige uniforms and black
military-style hats, would not be allowed to mount
street patrols”. Not much possibility of guarding
anything there!
“Italy’s parliament has given final approval to a law criminalising illegal immigration and allowing citizens’ patrols to help the police keep order.”
Gárda is alive, only whit diffrent status!
Ginnie,
You are so much an Italo-Hungarian as I am Persian. What was I smoking when you posted your piece, is surely what you’ve been drinking.
And on the pseudo Hungarian front in your comment I don’t even gratify it with an answer you dummy.
Italian Hungarian…my behind.
The Italians hated their Jewish counterparts and vica versa, clashed with them for turf in New York you clown, lived in separate neighborhoods, segregated themselves except the mafia types on both camp you idiot.
Just like the Irish did.
Don’t give me your crap when you know what you’re spewing is baloney. Please.
Or…or dear ginnie1980, you have been watching too many Hollywood movies where the casino owners and crooks were Italians and Jews shoulder-to-shoulder. That certainly would explain your lack of history but wouldn’t be an excuse for writing complete idiocies on this forum.
This round went to the fascist storm troopers, but it ain’t over just yet.

Concede nothing, Godot. See you on Szabadság Tér on Saturday.
Beju:
I’m an American citizen, and live in New York City — unlike you. So yes, I know a heckuva lot more about American history than you do. When the Italians in New York got into street battles in the ’20′s and ’30′s, it was between Italians, fascist and non-fascist — not with Jews.
As you’re a fascist, I’d think you’d take the trouble to know your own history. But you’re not interested in facts, just convenient mythology. And don’t tell me you’re a Hungarian nationalist — you and your Jobbik pals are Hungary’s shame.
Have a nice weekend.
ginnie loveboy,
You are an American citizen?)))
And how does that exempt you from writing baloney?
Is that something you are proud of? Good for you.
Let me tell you on the side I am one too. You dumbass!
What’s with this American citizen bull you seemed to have picked up?
Is it some sort of asylum for being stupid?
If that’s the case I renounce mine, you idiot.
You know nothing about what it means to be American. None whatsoever. So on behalf of normal Americans, please bug off and study some history.
I know in New York it must be tough with all the Jews and Italians bending it for you.
Good luck in your endeavors!
And ginnie hunchyback,
Just for future reference…
Next time you write baloney to someone try it in your own ghetto neighborhood, not in mine in Hawaii.
I got it!
You must be one of Bernie Madoff’s victims.
Indeed he fucked you guys bad and deserved the 150.
New York. My goodness. Can’t wait not having to include it in my next itinerary on the way to a Jobbik meeting in Budapest.
Constraints, constraints… always butt in.
Great 160 you have your citizenship but you are not one of us, you are a twisted, sick individual. You world view is not inline with people who actually live in NYC.
It is painfully obvious to anyone who reads your rants how sad and lonely you really are.
C’M,
You should make an appointment with our resident maniac, Vandorlo. He spends his lonely days and nights on keeping track of posts and posters here. Maybe he and his database will help you identifying people, so you can direct your pathetic insults to the right person. I understand that this is very important to your kind of useless SZDSZ shills.
You hide like roaches when someone exposes your for your lies. There is no database, you’re just too fucking dumb to realize how obvious you are.
I certainly am not a Szdsz or Mszp shill, and find it ridicules that the people of your politically retarded movement are described as ‘right-wing’ since almost all of your ideas are populist, working-class, protectionist twattle which is much more in like with the ethos of national socialism than any real right-of-center political movement.
So go ahead, pick a new ID and write back, everyone will still know which cunt you are anyway.
Hide from what, you imbecile (C’M)?
In case you haven’t noticed, no one uses their real name on a message board. You must be seriously retarded if you cannot recognize people by their style and views.
(Many of us do have views, you know…)
Proving again reading comprehension is not your strong suit either. I clearly said ID not name.
C’est moi my bud,
You really have a deep attachment to your New York Americanism. Very commendable! Hope you just as eagerly send your kids voluntarily to die for someone else’s cause!
Judging from your comments, you have no idea what America is all about.
I’m not one of yours. That’s a fact. And this is where America begins for you to comprehend.
Now if you don’t have a clue what your own country’s values are, how would it be sanely expected of you understanding another’s?
Lonely you must be my sole friend. Bury yourself into some serious history before you mouth off.
Just an advice.
C’M is a sewer rat with bad manners. Typical SZDSZ material.
No argument there. The trick is how to get rid of them. I’m open to suggestions.
Come to think of it… Hitler had one, but it never materialized. That’s why in a democratic society you need more time than two terms should you be serious to deliver utmost change. Or you just do it fast and efficient. Hallo!
My dear C’est moi. You must be crumbling with your szadesz gangsters in New York. I feel for you. No doubt in my mind though that you’ll resurface under another name fleecing further the unfortunate Hungarian population. You guys are experts at that. Liberals.
