Hungary, Israel in Talks over Controversial Holocaust Museum in Budapest
(Ha'aretz) Noa Landau and Ofer Aderet - Israel and Hungary are holding talks on the content of a controversial Holocaust museum, the House of Fates, scheduled to open in Budapest next year. The opening of the museum, which was initiated and funded by the Hungarian government, is to mark the 75th anniversary of the Nazis' deportations of Hungarian Jewry with the cooperation of the Hungarian authorities, which led to the murder of half a million people. The Hungarian Jewish community fears the museum will serve to distort Hungary's true role in the Holocaust.
