Foreign ministry responds to criticism by Israeli ambassador over Soros billboard campaign
Just like Israel, Hungary will take action against everyone who poses national security risks to the country and its citizens, the foreign ministry said on Saturday in response to Israeli Ambassador Yossi Amrani’s criticism of a Hungarian billboard campaign depicting US financier George Soros.
Soros wants to have the fence protecting the Hungarian border demolished and to settle hundreds of thousands of illegal migrants in Europe and Hungary with the help of the NGOs he finances, the ministry said in a statement. The illegal migrants and their often anti-Semitic views pose risks to Jewish communities in Europe and in Hungary, the statement added.
As a result, the Hungarian government will make every effort to fight against the financial speculator who is a danger to Hungarian citizens and against his organisations promoting illegal migration, the ministry said.
Amrani said on the Israeli Embassy’s Facebook page on Saturday that he calls on those involved in the current billboard campaign and those responsible for it to reconsider the consequences.
“No gain can come from such a campaign recalling the historic lesson,” he said.
“At the moment beyond political criticism of a certain person, the campaign not only evokes sad memories but also sow hatred and fear,” he added.
As we wrote before, the head of the Federation of Jewish Communities in Hungary (Mazsihisz) has called on PM Orbán to call an end to the government’s recent billboard campaign depicting US financier George Soros.

People of Hungary – ignore the ambassador – at Israel we hate this Sorros also, he also pushes his nose into our polictics supporting our far left extremists, that try to weaken Israel vs arabs and africans that infiltrate from Egypt.
You can freely protest against this sorros , no one normal in Israel will see this as anti semitism, its your right as a country to protect your borders !
Your Jewish friends in Israel.
Alex, you are right. Jewish people are not responsible for the action of one rotten apple. However, no one should use this opportunity to promote hate against the Jewish people. I hope Hungary has revoked Soros’s Hungarian citizenship if he had one.
Israel should support Hungary because Israel would not tolerate a foreigner to try to control its policies. It is up to the Hungarian population to say who they wish to live with.
The EU is trying to stop migration to Europe, yet Soros advocates removing the border fence that protects the EU from migrants. He is an evil man.
As a young, now old criminal. I doubt the Hungarian government would have issued this P.O.S., any citizenship in the last 7 years to revoke. I’m hear in Canada where i’m surrounded by people from all walks of life, trying to understand why some scum would want to interfere with a foreign ‘now’ to him government and civilization and lobby to change things there. But to see what this P.O.S. has done in his own portfolio could only be presented back to him and his own willing family in the future. I see the SOROS or whatever they decide to call themselves later as the goons on trial when they get collected and strung up for their perverted measures. There is no JEW, CHRISTIAN, MUSLIM or CALVINIST in this equation. These clowns are an athiestic, perverted, and deprived bunch that deserve capital punishment, end of story.
