A sensational statement concerning the organization and the program of the Doppelkreuz Blutbund, the leading anti-Semitic organization in Hungary, was published by the “Esti Kurier.”
The statement declares that the Doppelkreuz Blutbund is an organization on a military basis and that it controls all political events in the country and also government decisions.
“The ministerial decision to disband the Doppelkreuz Blutbund is impossible because we are not to be disbanded. A section of the state officials are our members. If the decent part of the Jews will help us at the necessary moment, the Jews will be able to remain in Hungary. Should they fail to do so at the necessary moment, they will have to leave Hungary, even under compulsion,” the statement declares.
