PM Viktor Orban spoke at the World Jewish Conference...but disappointed the 500 attendees by not condemning the far right Jobbik party for their overt anti-Semitic protest.
A day earlier...a few hundred Jobbik party members had protested in Budapest... accusing Israelis of buying up Hungary...just ahead of the World Jewish Congress meeting there.
The Jobbiks currently hold 43 of 386 seats in the Parliament.
PM Viktor Orban had ordered the rally banned...but a court overruled him.
The WJC held its 4-year event in Budapest to shame Hungary's far right.
