Mihalj Kertes

[edit]

How can you Serbs be afraid of Serbia when I, a Hungarian, am not afraid of Serbia?

His name would be according to Hungarian spelling Kertész Mihály. For a short period the Hungarian press used this form of his name, but later - up to the present day - even the Hungarian press uses the form Mihalj Kertes. The point is that he cannot be treated as ethnic Hungarian, and the main reason is that he can't speak even a single word on Hungarian. According to the Hungarian logic, "the nation lives in his languange", so a person who doesn't speak a word in Hungarian is not a Hungarian. (So in Hungarian nation not the citizenship, not the religion and not the origin matters, but the language.)

The second, a more symbolic reason why he is not Hungarian is that he has always used his name as Mihalj Kertes. In some time only the Serb form of the name was allowed to be used in Yugoslavia, but Hungarians has always been using the Hungarian form of their names, regardless if it was accepted officially or not. If he were a "real" Hungarian, then it would be very likely that he would use the Hungarian form of his name.

Well, I mostly agree; however, that were his own words, which were largely (ab)used by the Milošević's media of the time as a sort of proof that the "people's movement" is based on ideas of equity and justice rather than nationalism. FWIW, his trial started just today [1]; I assume you arrived here because it intrigued your curiosity and you performed the search. Too bad that he doesn't have an article... he's such a... um... colorful person. Duja 15:08, 5 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I couldn't resist making the article... his biography could take volumes... Duja 15:04, 7 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
