The 1956 Hungarian Revolution Started as Anti-Jewish!
Historian David Irving wrote a book about the Hungarian revolution in 1956 that was portrayed as anti-communist, revealing that it started as anti-Jewish. Why would the Hungarian people rise against the Jews in their country? The weird turn of events is that Hungary is one of the strongest allies of Israel today, even when the majority of the world, including most Europeans, is standing against the Israeli war crimes across the world, especially in the Levant and Iran.

"Uprising! Hungary 1956 One Nation's Nightmare link here" is the name of his book.
I found something called Winston, which looks like an AI model for books, and asked it to summarize the book. Here's the summary:
What does the archive say about Uprising! Hungary 1956: One Nation's Nightmare (2025 Edition)?

Question
What does the archive say about Uprising! Hungary 1956: One Nation's Nightmare (2025 Edition)?
Answer
The archive holds David Irving's Uprising!, his study of the Hungarian Revolution of 1956, and the cited material provides a clear picture of the book's scope, methodology, and reception — though the sources here do not specifically reference a "2025 Edition" by that title. What they do document is substantial.
The Book and Its Research
Irving's Uprising! was researched across multiple continents. As the archive describes it:
"David Irving's search for material and documents took him to the great cities of the northern hemisphere. He questioned survivors in Moscow, Munich, Geneva, Paris, London, New York, Verona, Rome and Madrid — he obtained clearance of previously un-obtainable records in Washington relating to the role of the CIA, Radio Free Europe, and United States diplomacy."
He worked through Eisenhower's presidential records in Kansas, interviewed Budapest's police chief — who had recently been amnestied from life imprisonment — in Toronto, and was officially permitted to visit Budapest several times, gathering new documents and photographs directly from eye-witnesses and survivors [Source 3, Source 4].
He also questioned men who had been "kidnapped, exiled, imprisoned and put on trial" alongside Prime Minister Imre Nagy, who was sentenced to death, as well as members of Nagy's family [Source 1].
Distinctive Arguments
Two aspects of Irving's analysis were flagged as particularly striking at publication:
- His reassessment of Imre Nagy, which reviewers expected to "raise eyebrows"
- His discovery, among official records, of evidence that anti-Semitism was one of the motors of the popular discontent [Source 1]
He also made use of "hundreds of interrogation reports prepared at the time by American agencies," supplemented by diaries of diplomats and Western journalists who entered Hungary during the uprising [Source 1].
Content and Scale
The book covers the uprising from the first demonstrations on 23 October 1956 through to the Soviet counter-offensive in the early hours of 4 November 1956, with particular attention to the street fighting around the Kilián Barracks, the storming of the radio building, and the brutal events at Republic Square on 30 October [Source 2]. It also chronicles the aftermath: the flight of some 200,000 Hungarians westward before the year's end, the trials and executions of figures including General Maléter and Nicholas Gimes, and the restoration of Communist rule under János Kádár [Source 1, Source 2].
Irving corrects the casualty figures that circulated at the time — Pandit Nehru had cited 25,000 Hungarians and 7,000 Russians killed in Budapest, but the Hungarian Central Statistical Office's own interim estimate listed 2,500 to 3,000 dead in total [Source 3].
Press Reception
Reviewers were notably positive about the narrative achievement:
"The book's achievement: the piecing together of an astoundingly detailed account, almost shot-by-shot, of the street fighting in central Budapest… A work which must have taken years to write and research." — The Observer
"The result is a narrative which is extraordinarily powerful, indeed compelling." — New Society
The Sunday Express called it "a forthright journalistic profile" while noting it would "further enrage professional historians" [Source 1].
Availability
The archive records that the book has been made available as a free PDF download in English, German, and Magyar editions, and that a Hungarian edition was published in 2003 [Source 4].
The cited sources do not specifically reference a "2025 Edition" subtitle or introduction. If there is new prefatory material in that edition, the archive material available here has not surfaced it. The historical content of the book is, however, richly documented across the sources above.

In the above summary, I do not see a reference to the anti-Jewish nature of the Hungarian people's uprising in 1956, as David Irving explains in the short introduction to his book in the video linked above (https://t.me/syupdates/3890). I don't have the resources (time and money) to go through the original book. If you have read the book, please share your thoughts in the comments.
There's a global massive campaign of brainwashing and gaslighting the public into diverting the attention away from the crimes a particular group of people keeps committing wherever they get a grip of power to which eventually leads to expelling them from each country they settled in, while at the same time demonizing the real patriots defending their countries from those criminals, the dirty US-led NATO-sponsored war of terror on Syria that lasted 13.5 years and murdered more than half a million people, displaced more than 5 million others, and turned one of the most advanced secular countries in the region into a failed state run by the CIA-sponsored al Qaeda HTS/ ISIS.
Similarly, the genocide and war crimes committed by the Zionist settlers across the Levant and wherever their tentacles reach, including in the very countries that sponsor them, like the USA, UK, Canada, Australia, etc., stripping the people there of their liberties, especially free speech, and controlling their resources through corrupt politicians and large corporations.
