Imperial Japanese sun rises over Budapest in Jobbik campaign ads

rising-sun-budapest.jpg

While the folks at Képviselő Funky were primarily concerned with the orthography used by Jobbik in their campaign leaflets (above), what struck us (and which the blog also noted) was that it immediately made us think of Imperial Japan. Then again, considering how recent Japanese involvement in Budapest has led to things being done faster and probably cheaper, all hail our future Japanese overlords!

    Arpad colours is what came to my mind, however the socially conditioned Neo Liberals and Media influenced westerners would view differently no doubt. The trash written about Japanese History is also misleading. The biggest war criminals are the Zionist Jews who are killing to this day.

  2. Viking says:

    Why are the using the writing of “the socially conditioned Neo Liberals and Media influenced westerners”?
    Where did Law’s runes go?
    Law normally always claim that Magyar runes are from the original language (of course they spoke ‘Hungarian’ already at that time)
    Makes a Viking wonder where the Vikings got their runes from…
    -
    On the other hand, when having an Elected Official in the Local German Language National Minority Government, as “Jobbik”‘s Finest and candidate for Mayor of Budapest, adhering to Hungarian orthography is of course not so high on the agenda

  3. Vándorló says:

    But they also made a point that these so called protectors of Hungary and guardians of the Hungarian language can’t even write their slogan correctly. Of course this is in the tradition of the dregs that support them, along with LHVJ, Richie, Law etc… who hardly speak a word of their ‘mother-tongue’. De így jó a mű-Magyaroknak, ugye?

    By the way what’s happened to comments on

    I couldn’t use an href, and links get oddly cut in

    Yes, day two, “Jobbik” was mentioned:
    -
    http://www.economist.com/blogs/asiaview/2010/08/far_right_gathers_japan_0
    -
    “Krisztina Morvai of Jobbik in Hungary advocated for a global network of human-rights lawyers to aid nationalists everywhere who are “constantly silenced, threatened and punished.”"
    .
    “The conference assembled eight European nationalist groups from France, Britain, Belgium, Austria, Hungary, Spain, Portugal and Romania”
    .
    “I noted that 100 years ago the Austrians hated the Spanish, the Hungarians hated the Romanians and the British hated the Japanese—and today, groups from all these nations participated in the conference as friends”

    Fuck dude, it’s been like 2 years of reading your trash Law, don’t you ever get tired of writing the same bullshit over and over and over. We all get it, the Jews are bad and you don’t like them, it’s time to move on.

    Hi bob,
    Did you have your virus protection program on? That may prevent the pasting of hyperlinks.

  11. Cináed says:

    Law: I’d be genuinely interested to hear what ‘trash’ you are referring to in regard to Japanese history. Would you care to elaborate?

  12. Law says:

    Fuck you Cinaed, I’m not your Google bitch or Historian, the information is all out there if you truly want to know.

  13. Cináed says:

    Law: you’re such a charmer. Oh, I know what information is out there regarding Japan’s behaviour…after all, remember where I live. All I have to do is ask some of the older people here who lived through the war.On my recent trip through Mainland China and Korea I also heard some interesting first-hand testimony. So this is why I’d like to know what you think you know, because quite frankly, I think your comment is just yet another one of those empty claims where you try to sound like you are knowledgeable, but in actual fact know nothing at all. So, by all means, if you have something to say, go ahead, but in any case, we all know that you’re fill of shit.

    Yes, you need a Viking’s touch to succeed in life?
    I suppose this was the interesting part of that article (the end and not dedicated to Ricsi, Law and Mr Lobotomy, but to ‘bob’):
    .
    The most revealing moment came towards the end of the day, in a question innocently posed by a stocky Japanese delegate. The faces of the European participants turned pale, and for a brief second, everyone became very uncomfortable. The question sounds contrived, but it is not. This is what he really asked:
    I don’t know too much about the history and culture of Europe, so my question may be very primitive. If so, I apologise. I’d like to ask about the very strong hatred against the Jewish people that was put forward by Hitler. Listening to you yesterday and today, there doesn’t seem to be too many concerns about the Jews. But I sense that there is a strong fear of Muslims. However, when we the Japanese look at it, the Catholics, Jews and Muslims all respect one god, they derive from the same origin, and they all come from the same geographic region. So why do you hate each other so much? That is something that I don’t understand. And how about the Jews? What happened? Don’t you hate them any more?
    -
    “Don’t you hate them any more?”
    Maybe that is why so many French Jews vote for Le Pen?

  18. Vándorló says:

    @Viking: This was one of the points I was trying to hook American_in_… on, in regards to his claim Hungary is not a civilised nation compared to France – and my assertion that there are shitheads everywhere (which I believe to be borne out by the data). The French press had reported on this LePen visit, upsetting everyone in Japan and France, a week or two ago: http://bit.ly/bZpeF6
    It is should also be noted that communism is on the rise in India, with increasing attacks. What with Chinese workers demanding decent human rights and higher wages people may start consider outsourcing closer to home again.

  19. Law says:

    By 1940, Roosevelt had rammed through Congress a
    draft and conscription although polls indicated at
    least 50% of the public was against such a move.
    By now it should be perfectly obvious that World
    Jewry had begun planning for U.S. entry into the
    war at least three years before Pearl Harbor,
    despite overwhelming opposition.
    Speaking of Pearl Harbor, it is important to
    understand the complete facts surrounding the
    “surprise attack.” While 95% of all respondents
    were opposed to war in 1939, about 90% indicated
    they were willing to fight if directly attacked.
    Operating on this information, Jewry did
    everything possible to goad either Germany or
    Italy into attacking America. However, the bait
    was refused as Hitler was attempting at that time
    to negotiate a peace with England, which was
    flatly rejected by the Jew lackey Churchill.
    Thus Jewry’s attention turned toward Japan, which
    had a mutual defense pact with Germany and Italy.
    Japan had been engaged in a war with China which
    FDR and the Jews tried to use as an excuse for
    American intervention, even though the events in
    Asia were of no concern to America.
    Jewish, not American, interests however were what
    concerned Roosevelt and in July 1941, he froze
    Japanese assets in the U.S. and embargoed trade.
    This was reason enough to declare war, but Japan
    humbly proposed to sit down and negotiate U.S.-
    Japanese differences.

  20. Law says:

    Instead of accepting the offer, FDR insulted
    Japanese Ambassador Nomura and refused to meet
    with Prime Minister Konoye.
    As a result, Konoye and his “peace party” were
    replaced by Gen. Tojo and his “war party,” yet
    Japan continued to make peace overtures only to
    have them all flatly rejected. Finally, on 26 Nov.
    1941, Roosevelt sent an ultimatum to Japan which
    amounted to a virtual declaration of war. This
    ultimatum, according to Prof. Harry Elmer Barnes,
    was actually drafted by Jew Harry Dexter White
    (Weiss) in collaboration with Jew Treasury
    Secretary Harry Morgenthau.
    It was this ultimatum, penned by two Jews, that
    forced Japan to attack or else “lose face,” which
    in Oriental thinking is a fate worse than death.
    The final, sorry episode of this disgusting chain
    of events is that Washington knew of the impending
    attack on Pearl Harbor at least 12 hours before
    the blow fell, but refused to warn military
    officers there.
    The U.S. had been forewarned since the Japanese
    message code had been broken and America was thus
    able to monitor Japanese dispatches. No word was
    sent to Pearl Harbor by FDR and the Jews as
    the messages revealed that the attack should be
    called off if it appeared
    that the Americans were prepared.

  21. Law says:

    So International Jewry by going through the “back
    door” had successfully ensnared America into WWII;
    a war that would cost millions of lives and
    billions of dollars. The bottom line of the war
    would be a· world under the total subjugation of
    Jewry through its twin arms of Communism and
    Zionism.
    These facts have been covered up and ignored in
    the mass media, but Charles Lindbergh, for one,
    recognized where the finger of proof pointed. In
    his “Wartime Journals,” he states that “the Jews,
    the Roosevelt administration, and British
    sYmpathizers combined to encourage the U.S. to
    enter World War IL”
    Lindbergh and other patriots sought to stop
    Jewry’s war plans by setting up the America First
    Committee. The committee found widespread support,
    but could not overcome the billions spent by Jews
    to brainwash the public into accepting war after
    Pearl Harbor.

  22. Cináed says:

    hmm. interesting. So nothing of Japan’s imperial, expansionist aims? You might want to ask the Koreans about that. …and Japan wasn’t at war before Pearl Harbour? You might want to check that too. Really Law, you of all people shouldn’t trust everything you read in a book or on the internet. I’d suggest talking to some real witnesses. You might learn something.

  23. Law says:

    Will we learn from the lessons of the past or will
    we once again find ourselves forced into war for the
    benefit of World Jewry?

  24. justasking says:

    @Law,
    People like you hardly, if ever, learn the lesson. You tend to be the lesson.

  25. Odin's lost eye says:

    The emblem shown is the Ensign worn by all ships of the Imperial Japanese Navy most of which now lie rusting quietly in ‘Davy Jones Locker’. The ships of the Japanese Self Defence force wear the plain ‘Rising Sun’, the national Flag of Japan.
    ‘Banzai’ means ‘nine lives for the Emperor’. ‘Kamikaze’ means the Devine Wind (not the stuff I suffer from after a good Vindaloo)–See the destruction of Kublai Kahn’s invasion fleet.
    Viking – 1910 the Brits and the Japanese were on very good terms. See the battle of Tushimo (1905) and the battleship Mikasa built by Vickers in Barrow on Furness. She is now in Kokosuka as a museum ship.

  35. Kinga says:

    The affects of propaganda, however, last well
    after treaties are signed and the dusts of war
    settle. Japan, though defeated, still held inside
    the same hatred for the United States it had
    before the war if not more so. They played the
    role of defeated foe, smiling to appease their
    victors on the outside but contemptuous and
    demoralized on the inside. The United States still
    often referred to the Japanese as “Japs” or other
    racially derogatory names. The words and images
    left to us by propaganda remain in a nation’s
    collective memory. They are vestiges of war-time.
    However good or bad, those memories linger in
    culture. The elements of war are not left on the
    battle field to wither away with those who
    perished. Hate, anger, and contempt are brought
    home so that “war” becomes no longer a job but a
    way of life.

  36. Kinga says:

    How attractive were the armed forces made to look?
    What kind of rewards, benefits or honors could be
    gained? From the nationalistic stand point, how
    evil was the enemy made to look? What facts about
    the enemy should be told or withheld from the
    public, and how can that information be skewed to
    make the enemy look even worse? What rights had
    the enemy violated? Was Japan a realistic threat
    to our liberty? If they were, America was
    certainly not about to stand around and not take
    up arms. America’s dignity had been challenged,
    and Japan would pay.
    Conversely, how were America and the Allies
    violating Japan and other Asian nations? Asia had
    been invaded by an uninvited Western guest wearing
    the guise of diplomacy and trade. They brought
    greed, wealth and sought not the benefit of the
    native people but for their own wealth. They
    brought their Western ways spreading their
    culture, language, and ideologies, with empty
    hopes for Indians, Filipinos, Indonesians, and
    Chinese. They brought materialism and
    selfishness. India, China, the Philippines, and,
    with the exception of Thailand, Southeast Asia
    were oppressed under the ruling thumb of Western
    colonization. Japan had the strongest Army and
    Navy in Asia. Certainly it would be up to them to
    defend the honor and dignity of these Asian
    nations who could not fend for themselves.

  37. Kinga says:

    America points their finger at Japan, the aggressor,
    while America itself has had a history of aggression
    against Blacks, and other minorities including
    Asians. Japan brought wealth to Asia and stirred
    dormant countries like Korea to raise themselves up.
    Asia had the potential to be a world power, and it
    could only do that with Japan’s leadership.

  38. Kinga says:

    The United States, on the other hand, fixated on
    the dehumanized depiction of the Japanese,
    presenting them as monkeys and gorillas. They
    tended to shy away from any animal or demonic
    portrayal of their European foes partly because
    the majority of American’s were of European
    decent. To dehumanize the Europeans would be to
    dehumanize themselves. They felt no ethnic ties
    to the Japanese whatsoever. Both countries
    realized the importance of eliciting an ethnic
    hatred for the enemy as well as creating a
    subhuman image of them. It is much easier to kill
    a big hairy white mongrel or vine-swinging, gun-
    wielding monkey than it is to kill another human
    being. The enemy was not human.
    It can easily be said that the United States
    had more effective propaganda because they won the
    war. But the bottom line is that war is won on
    the battlefield. The United States won because
    she relentlessly Nuked Japan and because she had
    the resources and means to do so.

  39. Cináed says:

    “Certainly it would be up to them to
    defend the honor and dignity of these Asian
    nations who could not fend for themselves.”
    -
    Ok, so Japan was defending the honour and dignity of China when it invaded? Heard of the Rape of Nanking? …and unit 731? That was aiding the defence of other Asian nations? What about the occupation of Hong Kong and ‘reduction’ of its population?
    -
    “Japan brought wealth to Asia and stirred
    dormant countries like Korea to raise themselves up.”
    -
    So that whole business of occupation and subjugation of Korea from 1910-1945 was actually for the country’s benefit? I’m guessing then too that the destruction of their cultural icons was also done with the benevolent motive of ‘modernising’ them.
    -
    Oh of course, none of these things ever happened, so all of the witnesses here who remember it are all Jewish provocateurs.
    -
    Let me put this in perspective.These kinds of comments are the equivalent of saying that the invasion of Hungary by Soviet forces and the rape of Hungarian women never happened.Moreover, that the communist period actually modernised Hungary and left the country with a legacy of healthy institutions and a happy population.
    -
    A lot of people fought and died to turn back the Japanese advance through Asia…especially Asians themselves. Are you seriously trying to dishonour people who sacrificed everything for their country? What would happen if someone said the same of Hungary?
    -
    Honestly, what a crock of shit.

  41. justasking says:

    @Cin,
    I bought the book ‘The Rape of Nanking’ years ago. When it first came out.I was watching a morning show and the author was on. Can’t remember her name off the top of my head. I believe her family was personally effected during this ruthless time.
    Anyway, if I remember correctly, the Japanese Government was trying to stop this book in it’s tracks. Truth be told, that’s why I ended up buying it.
    Disturbing book with graphic pictures. I remember bawling through out it. Not being able to get my head around how people could inflict such horrors upon each other. Needless to say, I could not stomach reading the book all at once. I had to keep putting it down and going back to it.
    I had lent it to my brother-in-law to read. He returned it shortly after unread. He said he could not get past the first few chapters.
    Not a book I could read twice. But a book that needs to be read.

  42. Kawasaki says:

    Generalising and not investigating the backgrounds of how the English Spanish, French, Dutch, other European and Americans exploited Asia exposes how naïve and one sided your debate is, to support this ugly campaign of the west is highly hypocritical coming from a person of your calibre. You make out the Europeans were sent to help Asians, what a joke.
    The European expansion in Asia has hundreds of examples of exploitation and oppression, and here is just a few.
    1830 David Sasson a Baghdadi Jew and Jewish banker of David Sassoon & Co., with branches in China, Japan and Hong Kong uses his monopoly of the opium trade in this area, on behalf of the Rothschild controlled British government, to traffic 18,956 chests of opium earning millions of dollars for the Rothschilds and the British Royal family.
    Interestingly, back in 1939, President Roosevelt tried his hardest to railroad The United States into the war in Europe to accommodate the Jews in the United States, and the world, but when that failed he knew he would have to try a different tactic. That was, of course, what happened at Pearl Harbor.

  43. Kawasaki says:

    1945 On July 16th, the first successful test of the atomic bomb occurs at the Trinity site, two hundred miles south of Los Alamos. Its creator, J. Robert Oppenheimer, a Rothschild, states in wonder,
    I am become Death, the Destroyer of worlds.
    He is right, within the month, subsequent detonations over Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan, result in the deaths of 140,000 people in Hiroshima and 80,000 in Nagasaki.

  44. Kawasaki says:

    @Justasking
    What a sucker you must be “Nanking Massacre” has been either exaggerated or wholly fabricated for propaganda purposes, there are other sources that dispute the very nature of the event, so that argument won’t work only for emotionally conditioned western brats.
    In other genocide events, there was a clear agenda to kill everyone based on their race. That is not what happened in Nanjing. Genocide is a term bandied about too often these days, so perhaps in some other cases it shouldn’t be used.

  45. wolfi says:

    @kawa:
    Copying from LaRouche again ?

    No, no…it actually works for us ‘Sex and the City’ brats as well.

  47. Kawasaki says:

    @Kinga
    So true.
    “Asia had been invaded by an uninvited Western guest wearing the guise of diplomacy and trade. They brought greed, wealth and sought not the benefit of the native people but for their own wealth. They brought their Western ways spreading their culture, language, and ideologies, with empty hopes for Indians, Filipinos, Indonesians, and Chinese. They brought materialism and selfishness.

    My suggestion is for anyone who thinks the Rape of Nanking was a propaganda fabrication should go there and say so. I’m betting you won’t last too long. Likewise with the Korean occupation.
    -
    Clearly a Chinese life is not as valuable as a European one.
    -
    wolfi: I realise it’s all a bunch of c&p crap, but I said what I wanted to say…and perhaps there is an element of giving someone enough rope. I also thought that while people argue so much about the European theatre of WWII and the behaviour of the US, maybe not everyone is so familiar with the Pacific conflict.
    -
    In any case, I don’t need to read about the history of WWII in China when there are so many people around who were here when it happened. I believe them more than some of the ‘experts’ we have here.
