  Well ... do we want to speculate about innate racial or national 
characters of genetically anti-russian Magyars? Pan-Slavism of sorts?

  Well, as a result of the violent repression of the Hungarian uprising 
in 1956, there now IS a "probably capitalist Hungary", and it is even 
member of NATO, the imperialist military alliance, taking part in 
imperialist aggression worldwide, and having served, on the very first 
days of its NATO membership, as staging ground for the imperialist 
aggression against neighbouring Jugoslavia. Now what? Even the Soviet 
Union itself crumbled, caused among other by this violent repression of 
a popular revolt in Hungary 50 years ago. 

  And the good thing about it: there is no more a strong material force 
propped up by money and arms from the Kreml to keep us from attacking 
capitalist minority rule.
