2. Murders on the Danube Memorial
MurderOnTheDanube ,   jerusalem Israel   (08.04.12)
The government of Hungary should place the plaque describing the murders by the Hungarian Facists of hundreds if not more of Jews that took place on the Danube by the Parliment building where people can see it. The monument consisting of bronze shoes of men women and children left on the river bank as they were shot into the Danube is thought by most tourists as just a cute sculpture as the meaning of the memorial is put on a wall opposite the site which no one sees. Tourists think its cute and try to put their feet into the shoes for a photo . THey need to put the story plaque right by the shoes not hide it as they do. "Blue Danube Waltz" here it was the "red" Danube "waltz"
