10) Modern illberals like Orban and Trump pose a special challenge to Jews, precisely because they make it clear: This time, we can be exempt. Will we as Jews stand for liberal values even when cordially invited to join the illiberal coalition? More here: https://t.co/bcyyJCXHZU — PolitiTweet.org

9) Orban is very canny and very disciplined. On many issues - not only antisemitism, but also on defiance of EU rules and cozying up to Putin - Orban deftly walks right up to red lines, extracts all the benefit from that walk ... and then is able to stop before he crosses. — PolitiTweet.org

8) The greatest threat to the physical security of European Jews remains radical Islamic ideology. Jews in Budapest are safer from violent attack than Jews in Brussels or Paris or many cities in Germany. Synagogues and schools are less heavily guarded. — PolitiTweet.org
David Frum @davidfrum
7) About half the Hungarian Jewish community survived the Holocaust. Jews and people of Jewish origin remain important in Hungarian life - and to Orban's regime. Orban's ideologist of Christian nationalism, Maria Schmidt, lives on the wealth bequeathed her by a Jewish husband — PolitiTweet.org

6) Jewish community leaders told me that Orban would directly assure them: "This doesn't mean YOU" when he engaged in coded antisemitism. They strongly felt they had his attention and protection, even as he played a double game with antisemitic feelings in the electorate. — PolitiTweet.org
David Frum @davidfrum
5) Orban cultivated a close personal relationship with former Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu and enthusiastically encouraged Israeli investment in Hungary. When I visited Budapest in 2016, the restaurant most popular with Orban cronies was owned by an Israeli couple. — PolitiTweet.org

4) It's also true that the Hungarian state under Orban lavishly invests in Jewish memorialization and historical preservation. https://t.co/EqUUb6FHX5 — PolitiTweet.org
David Frum @davidfrum
3) Orban's memorializations of Hungarian history - the "House of Terror" museum https://t.co/ie2X9HMtuQ and his Szabadsag Square monument - falsely depict the Hungarian state as a victim of Nazi aggression rather than as the ally and partner it was from 1940 to 1944. — PolitiTweet.org

2) Orban has made a major propaganda effort to rehabilitate prewar fascist figures, some of them vituperatively and even murderously antisemitic. https://t.co/vYXil1ww2k — PolitiTweet.org

1) It's clearly true that Viktor Orban manipuates antisemitic impulses as a tool of power. Here's an article describing Orban's methods. https://t.co/7tXUPQ5nS0 — PolitiTweet.org

Anthropologist James C. Scott introduced the idea of “weapons of the weak”: “foot-dragging, evasion, false compliance, pilfering, feigned ignorance, slander and sabotage.” Coincidentally, that's Georgetown Law's approach to faculty free speech issues. https://t.co/XfZO5t7LIg — PolitiTweet.org
