Wartime fascist denies targeting Jews

A FORMER high-ranking official in Hungary's wartime fascist government who fled to Australia under an assumed name in 1949 yesterday denied his party had been responsible for the deportation or murder of Jews.

Lajos Polgar, who has lived in Melbourne for more than 50 years since fleeing war crimes prosecutors, admitted yesterday he had been a youth leader in the anti-Semitic Arrow Cross party and worked as secretary to Josef Gera, a senior leader in the Arrow Cross government that ruled under German occupation from October 1944 to January 1945.

Mr Polgar, 89, is facing fresh investigations into his background after his connections to the Arrow Cross regime were revealed by federal Labor MP Michael Danby at the weekend.

In a lengthy interview at his home in the Melbourne suburb of Ferntree Gully, Mr Polgar denied the Arrow Cross party was anti-Semitic, claiming "everybody in Hungary was anti-Jewish" during the war. .....this jerk claims they weren't anti semitic.....just that everyone was anti Jewish....that make sense to anyone?.................Snooker

"After the war all the leaders were hanged, but there was not one among them who was guilty, really," Mr Polgar told The Australian. "At that time, you could not do anything because everybody was in the hands of the Jews. They just hanged them. Completely, completely innocent people."

Mr Polgar said Jews had not been deported to death camps under Arrow Cross. "It is not true. When the Jews were deported that party was not in power. How can we deport Jews when we are not in power?"

Mr Polgar's claim goes against the evidence assembled by historians that hundreds of thousands of Jews were deported to the Nazi death camp at Auschwitz between May and July 1944 under the direction of Arrow Cross partisans Laszlo Baky and Laszlo Endre.

Three days after the Arrow Cross assumed power in October 1944, the order was issued for the deportation of 35,000 Jews by rail and on foot to work as forced labourers in Austria.

Arrow Cross partisans murdered thousands more Jews on the streets of Budapest in October and November 1944, dumping their bodies in the River Danube.

Another Australian citizen, Charles Zentai from Perth, is fighting an extradition request for allegedly beating a Jewish teenager to death in Budapest in November 1944. ........this guy first said that he would be happy to go to Hungary to clear his name......chicken
sh!t change his mind? I wonder why? Suddenly too old to travel...???...........Snooker

Mr Polgar came to Australia under the name of Lajos Kardos. He changed his name in December 1944 to elude prosecution for war crimes as the Arrow Cross government crumbled.

Jewish human rights organisation the Simon Wiesenthal Centre said it would immediately investigate whether Mr Polgar was responsible for any war crimes.

"There is no question that he's a Holocaust denier, but of course there's a difference between a Holocaust denier and a Nazi war criminal," said the centre's Jerusalem head Efraim Zuroff. But he said Mr Polgar's involvement in the Arrow Cross was a matter of concern.

"The Arrow Cross is a movement which actively participated in mass murder," Dr Zuroff said.

Mr Danby demanded yesterday to know how the Nazi sympathiser was allowed entry into Australia in 1949.

"He was clearly a top-ranking official in one of the most thuggish satellites of the Nazi regime," Mr Danby said. "Whether he lied to get into Australia is something that I want the Australian Government to investigate. I don't care whether it's 50 years late."
