Uprising! David Irving   Uprising! One Nation's Nightmare: Hungary 1956
Review by Rerevisionist: 9 Nov 2015
First Published Twenty-Five Years After the Hungarian Revolution

I re-read this book partly to see if there are lessons within it for the modern world, as Europeans, or some of them, awaken to Jewish corruption, deceit and destructiveness.

David Irving published on this short-lived revolution (1956, 1957) with information from various sources; an important one is the Columbia University Oral History Project (appearing as CUOHP). Another are BBC Monitoring Reports though I couldn't find an account of how these are obtained, presumably in translation. Probably at the time David Irving was still persona grata in official circles. Uprising! was serialised in Der Spiegel, which no doubt helps explain the similar-length chapters and rather journalistic style—short headlines, and plenty of human interest.

It's available on-line, in an electronic edition (2001). I have not compared this with an original paper copy; it seems likely to be similar, with an unrevised Stalin-influenced 'Cold War' feel. It even has material on Jews taken to 'death camps'.

At the time of publication Jews protested against the Jewish material, as of course is traditional. For example, David told me, Arthur Koestler disliked the book. Jews made about 8% of the population of Hungary at the time. But although there are plenty of Jewish names, the full extent of transnational Jewry is not revealed. So-called 'Jews' in the USA, UK, France, and USSR followed joint policies. In Hungary, the net effects of 'Jews' were to remove vast lands from the Roman Catholic Church; build factories essentially exporting below-cost products to the USSR, with large movements of workers and—with low wages— their wives, who had to work too. There seem to have been genuine peasants, working their own land for food; these of course were put into supposedly communal farms. The process was carried out by what are still called 'secret police' by historians, though of course they were not secret, at, of course, huge cost. And by the Jewish-funded 'Communist' Party, supported by 'state' (read: 'Jewish') news propaganda, thugs (I'd guess including gipsies), and legal measures of the sort that westerners are starting to recognise. In my view the 'Cold War' was propped up by mythological nuclear weapons. Hungary had some uranium ore (Irving writes) so here was an industry that fulfilled all Jewish needs: defilement of the country with mining waste, hard working conditions, and complete waste of time and other people's money.

David Irving notes Bela Kun, after the First World War:
The country would not easily forget the 133 days of Kun's "Soviet republic". Organised murder gangs, of which a later Reinhard Heydrich or Adolf Eichmann would have been proud, prowled the country on the orders of Otto Korvin and Tibor Szamuely, liquidating "counter-revolutionaries" without trial. In the same year Kun and his followers fled to Moscow, where they split into several rival factions. Rákosi, who had been one of Kun's officials, opted for Austria; he outlived his welcome there in 1920 and returned to Moscow. The new regime, led by Admiral Horthy, liquidated the rest of the Communist leaders in what came to be known as the White Terror. Since Kun and all his cronies had been Jews, the pogrom had unmistakably anti-Semitic overtones.
Note Irving's traditional Judaic wording: 'pogrom', 'anti-semitic'.

... Counter-revolutionaries ... Hundreds of thousands of landowners, capitalists, generals and bishops ... is part of the phrasing of a poster—'Jews' like anonymous messages. It is purely Judaic propaganda: nothing about Jewish finance, Jewish terror, Jewish propagandists, Jewish population movements; just a list of traditional enemies Judaics love to have.

With the rest of the world effectively against them, there were few victories, and a lot of destruction; more, mostly by Russian tanks, than in the Second World War.
Over at Stalin Square the mob had still not had its way with the grinning statue. Laughter gusted across the park, as somebody hung a placard on the dictator’s bronze chest with a crude slogan: "Russians, when you start to flee—I beg of you, forget not me!"

The statue had been sturdily built on the site of the Catholic Regnum Marianum church blitzed in the war, a twenty-five-foot Hungarian bronze monument to their own enslavement, cannibalised from the bronze statues of all Hungary’s kings and queens. A medical student in a white shirt had climbed the statue and noosed the first ropes round Stalin’s neck ...
Certainly worth reading for the accounts of events in a satellite of the USSR. I suspect the gruesome details were far worse than appears in Irving's book. But, I repeat, it is not so good as an overview, lacking a summary. As revisionism advances, I hope such work will appear, exposing Jewish activities worldwide, no doubt in the malodorous teeth (© Sefton Delmer) of 'Jewish' opposition.

Here's an online comment (by 'Floda' 3 Feb 2016) showing one lesson: '... When snipers start taking them out it will get their attention. This was very effective back in 1956 when the Hungarians woke up to their Zionist Hostile elites and began shooting them as they stepped out of their Government offices.'
