Israel's ambassador to Hungary demanded a government inquiry on Tuesday into a public hanging of effigies of Israeli leaders staged by a town mayor linked to the far-right Jobbik party.
Mihaly Zoltan Orosz, mayor of Erpatak, was filmed ordering the hanging of effigies of Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and former president Shimon Peres in protest against the Gaza conflict on Sunday.
"Israel's leadership is in the service of the Antichrist," Orosz can be heard telling onlookers in a video available online.
"The government of Hungary must act now in order to stop these very dangerous acts," Ilan Mor, Israel's envoy to Budapest, said in a statement.
"I am sure that an investigation into this issue will start as soon as possible," he added.
Hungary's foreign ministry condemned the incident in a statement on Monday, accusing the mayor of using the Gaza conflict "to incite hatred".

Well, I see that Hungarians haven’t changed in all these years. This guy is just showing the world what a complete piece a@@ he is. How about using him to test out a new gallows?
Most liberals would join in that protest. I think the only reason Liberals hate the jews is because they are afraid the Old Testament is correct
And I see ignorance is still alive and well in your Amerika, how clever of you to condemn an entire people over the act of one or a few. Your logic must be the kind that muslims use to condemn alL Americans, it's not very thoughtful.
What religion is this guy who thinks they are the antichrist? What’s the main religion in Hungary? Are they known as antisemitic?
Hungary was a member of the Axis powers during WWII. In 1938, Hungary began to issue anti-Jewish legislation. Jews were removed from the economy and were identified as a racial group. 568,000 Hungarian Jews were killed during the Holocaust, many by Hungarian collaborators. That’s not condemning an entire people “over the act of one or a few”. There were many more than a few Hungarians involved in the brutal killing of Jews, simply because they were Jews.
And ignorance is ignorance, my grandparents were Americans, after leaving Hungary, my parents Father was and Mother still is American after leaving Hungary. But they were actually there during the God Damn war and know a little more about it then you, and your tarring of all Hungarians is ignorant, insulting and well I’ll leave it at that.
Look at his last post, and look at yours. Use your words, we know you can. Nobody here in America really truly cares about that “old country” crap.
His was a factual account, and was careful to avoid including all Hungarians. You simply cuss and say the parents lived there. So what?
What’s important here is whether one identifies himself as Hungarian to any extent or fully American.
My parents became Americans I am an American but that doesn’t mean I won’t call out an ignorant statement. The truth is a kind of important thing without changing over to questioning whether someone is an American or not, go play that game with all the friggin hyphenated americans, not me. And maybe don’t slander a whole people because of the actions of a few. That’s the same stupidity as calling every German a Nazi, when the truth is that there many many who were disgusted by the Nazi but would be imprisoned or worse if the openly disagreed.
Jobbik supports the KGB Putin just like nazis and fascists all over Europe. Moscow is the biggest supporter in the world of Israel’s enemies.
I don’t harbor any vanity for any of the European countries that my ancestors came from. They didn’t, either. And in my opinion, most of the glaring problems in our U.S.A. are consequences of too many unassimilated minds of European loyalty gaining too much wealth and influence in our nation. They cling to the cultures of their old countries while coming here for the money.
To learn about the extents of antisemitism in Hungary, Austria and Germany, look for information on the Völkisch movement. It predated World War II by many years (1800s), and the sentiment, longer than that.
Does the world think America is pro-Palestinian or Hamas because of the “thousands” who protested against Israel this past weekend? Just asking, even if I am half-Hungarian.
The idiotic anti-Semitic “Jobbik” party is a minor party, they are not representative of the Hungarian people — many Hungarians put themselves in jeopardy, hiding Jewish people during the war, to save them.
It is unfortunate that the article chose to NOT put the existence of the Jobbik party in context that they represent a very small minority.
What would people here think if the world would judge the USA based on our small or not so small fraction of the idiot haters?
