On Nov. 27, hundreds of people gathered in front of the Parliament in Budapest (photos [2]) to protest a Hungarian far-right MP's call [3] “for Jews to be registered on lists as threats to national security [4].” Some of the protesters wore yellow Stars of David. The rally took place despite the removal of the Facebook event page for it by Facebook admins.
According to Millamedia [5] [hu], the news site of ‘One Million for the Freedom of Press in Hungary’ [hu [6], en [7]], the event page had been removed due to misunderstanding of the meaning of the event's profile picture: the Star of David with the word ‘Jude’ (German for ‘Jew’) on it, which alluded to the Nazi WWII practice [8] of forcing Europe’s Jews to wear yellow stars as “badges of shame” – and was used by the protesters not to offend, but in protest against anti-Semitism in Hungary [9].
