We can look forward to hot days again around February 11.
After some research on the Internet, we can find dozens of websites and posts from which it can be filtered: the preparation of the antifa in Budapest could even lead to another manhunt. The possible targets, the members of the extreme right, are not waiting with folded hands either. It is certain that there will be legal demonstrations with the participation of antifas against the so-called Nazi ideology and the far-right commemoration called Day of Honor. In addition to the Hungarian antifas, the participation of German and Italian antifas can be assured. However, there is also news that muscular colossus German far-rights may also come to Budapest to beat their German antifa compatriots.
A call for this year's Day of Honor was published on a website linked to antifa in Germany
As the extreme leftists put it:
During the events surrounding the "Day of Honor" in Budapest in 2023, anti-fascists were subjected to mass repression. Since then, the prosecutor's office has been publicly searching for the activists. The German and Hungarian police use the narratives of the right-wing conservative and fascist media and regard the Antifa movement as a criminal organization.
According to them, fascists throughout Europe continue to use Hungary as a safe and contact-making place, so they invite their comrades to protest/demonstrate in Budapest on February 10. Who are expected to come in good numbers. The promised peaceful demonstration on the Danube, also announced by the Hungarian antifas for February 10, can provide a good cover for the ultra-radical antifas who do not shy away from violence.
European far-left groups can be sharply divided into those promoting peaceful resistance and violent terrorist groups. The far left itself is extremely strong in Germany and Italy.
It is no coincidence that the defendants in the trial due to last year's manhunt in Budapest, which began with a preparatory session on Monday, are an Italian woman, a German woman and a man. Because of the manhunt, ten members of the German assault team called Hammerbande are being rounded up, along with Italians.
In Budapest, the manhunting antifas are held accountable
It begins on Monday with a preparatory session at the Capital District Court against the Italian and two German defendants connected to the Hammerbande for their participation in the manhunt last February. Speaking to a press agency, lawyer György Magyar revealed:
The prosecutor's office asked for 11 years in prison for his Italian client, Ilari S., in exchange for a full confession and his resignation from the trial. The Italian woman is accused of attempting to commit the crime of life-threatening bodily harm committed in a criminal organization. Thobias E. and his compatriot were accused of participating in a criminal organization. Imprisonment sentences were also proposed against them, as well as expulsion from the territory of Hungary.
Ilari S. is the main defendant in the trial, and according to his lawyer, he is being treated as if he were a terrorist.
There was a demonstration in Milan alongside the fighting antifa
A few hundred people gathered in Milan the other day at an anarchist and anti-fascist demonstration, the main point of which was solidarity with Ilaria Salis, the 39-year-old antifa from Monza, who has been in prison in Budapest for about a year after participating as a member of the Hammerbande in the February manhunts
writes Milano Today.
The march, which wound its way from Piazza Durante through the Città Studi district to Piazza Leonardo da Vinci, began with a leading banner that read: "Neither prison nor extradition, freedom for all antifa from Milan to Budapest" and "10, 100, 1000 Acca Larenzia" slogan. This is a clear reference to the massacre of the same name, during which antifa attackers murdered two members of the nationalist Youth Front in 1978 in front of the offices of the far-right Italian Social Movement.
According to Milano Today, the Hungarian charges are related to the AntifaOst investigation launched in Germany since 2018 due to attacks on representatives of German neo-Nazism.
The attempt - we can read in the press release of the organizers of the Milan demonstration - wants to confirm the existence of a phantom criminal organization that organized the attacks in Hungary". Therefore, the Hungarian authorities issued 14 European arrest warrants, including the one directed against Gabriele Marchesi from Milan. Marchesi has been under house arrest in Italy since November 22 and is awaiting extradition to Hungary.
The Hungarian authorities do not distinguish between criminals
Although the antifas mobilizing on February 10 complain that they are being persecuted by the Hungarian authorities, the facts speak for themselves. In addition to the members of the Hammerbanda anti-fee assault team, those who attacked far-left demonstrators and greens in Budapest last year on the Day of Honor and immediately before it are being held accountable.
The BRFK recently completed the investigation of the Retek Street attack.
Several men attacked a group of five people walking on the street on February 11, 2023 in the II. district Retek Street. One of them kicked a member of the group who was walking peacefully in the back without any precedent, who fell to the ground, and then another man kicked the victim who was already lying on the ground in the head. Seeing the abuse, another member of the victim's company tried to help his friend who was lying on the ground, but then he was also hit. One of the attacked men suffered light injuries, while his companion suffered serious injuries.
The Budapest police took action against seven men on the spot, two of whom were arrested and brought to the BRFK Gyorskogsi Street facility. The investigators interrogated 44-year-old P. Tibor as a suspect for the crime of group disorder, serious bodily injury, and misdemeanor assault, and 27-year-old Béla Sz. for group disorderly conduct and minor assault. Both suspects were taken into custody and their arrests were initiated. The staff of the Investigation Department of the Budapest Police Headquarters carried out the necessary procedural actions, and the documents were sent to the prosecutor's office in the next few days.
The far-right cannot avoid being held accountable either, if they attack and beat up those holding other views. In a state of law, everyone must obey the laws. This is one of the lessons learned from the fact that the Budapest Police Headquarters (BRFK) has completed the investigation against the suspects who beat up the two antifa.
– this is what the PS wrote back in October in connection with the other attack against anti-facs.
Three 17- to 18-year-olds who were on their way to a demonstration against the Day of Honor on February 11, 2023, around 1:00 p.m., when two men ran out of a larger group in the 1st district, at the corner of Várfok utca and Ostrom utca, and attacked them. One of the boys and the girl were punched in the face, the girl fell, her glasses flew off. The police officers who were nearby immediately intervened and prevented further abuse, so no injuries requiring medical attention occurred. One of the men was arrested on the spot, his partner managed to escape and was identified by the police within a day during the investigation.
Based on the data obtained, the perpetrators assaulted the victims because of their perceived political views, the 53-year-old man from Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén county and the 30-year-old man from Fejér county were questioned at the Budapest Police Headquarters' Investigation Department on the basis of a well-founded suspicion of violence against a member of the community. The investigators completed the necessary procedural actions and sent the documents to the prosecutor's office.
Visible Hungarian antifa preaches peaceful resistance
The visibly active Hungarian antifas, whose views also include a green philosophy, promote peaceful resistance. In connection with the announcement of all their public events, as well as at the events, they use the word "peaceful".
At the same time, they openly announce that they have the right to even paralyze the life of a neighborhood (country?) with so-called peaceful means, if their goals so desire.
Most recently, last Friday at Aurora, the well-known hangout of Hungarian antifa, "How do direct actions work?" a round table discussion was held in the organization of the increasingly active green organization, Extinction Rebellion. Here, the leader of the Szikra Movement, András Jámbor, who is also present in the Parliament, shared his experiences and advice on "direct actions". The round table also confirmed: direct actions are actually the methodical paralyzing of one city district with simple "hanging around". Hundreds of people gather in the city center, for example, and stand on the road and do nothing spectacularly. They just hang around, so to speak.
However, exchanging ideas about direct sales can go a long way. It can be considered a kind of training: do this if you want to protest "peacefully".
Can far-right muscle men also come to Budapest?
After the "peaceful" antifas, let's return to the violent, ultra-radical antifas. The Hungarian terror network is also being prepared, they write on blogs. As they (the antifas) write, "significant successes have been achieved during the resistance so far in Budapest as well", so "the Budapest comrades want to continue the successful mobilizations of previous years in February 2024." According to their claim, anti-fascist protests are "seriously criminalized both in Germany and Hungary", but despite this they are "not afraid of repression" and do not want to "leave Hungarian anti-fascists alone", so they are recruiting for the Hungarian Day of Honor this year as well.
At the same time, domestic antifas are also preparing for February. We will see how far the internationalist terrorists will dare to beat up the defenseless.
The following blog post may be a warning sign:
It would be good if the Hungarian police were prepared, because this year there will be no surprise, and the far-right are not stupid either. It should not be in the news that German neo-Nazis beat to death a fifty-kilogram German viper hussar.
