István Friedrich

István Friedrich (anglicised as Stephen Frederick; 1 July 1883 – 25 November 1951) was a Hungarian politician, footballer and factory owner who served as prime minister of Hungary for three months between August and November in 1919. His tenure coincided with a period of political instability in Hungary immediately after World War I, during which several successive governments ruled the country.

Early life
Friedrich was born into a family of German origin as the son pharmacist János Friedrich and Erzsébet Wagner on 1 July 1883 in the town of Malacka (now Malacky, Slovakia). He finished his secondary studies at the High Gymnasium of Pozsony (now Bratislava, Slovakia). As a right winger footballer of the Műegyetemi AFC, he played once for the Hungary national football team on 9 October 1904, when they suffered a 4–5 defeat against Austria in WAC-Platz. Thus, Friedrich became the first prime minister in the world history who had earlier played for a national football team on a professional level. Following the game, he functioned as a referee, belonging to the second generation.

Friedrich studied engineering at the universities of Budapest (where he graduated in 1905) and Charlottenburg before studying law at Budapest and Berlin. He worked as an engineer for AEG in Berlin until 1908. That year he returned to Hungary and married Margit Asbóth, daughter of Emil Asbóth, the owner of the Ganz-Danubius Company, one of the largest industrial conglomerates in Hungary, albeit he did not work for his father-in-law, instead setting up his own business in Mátyásföld, on the outskirts of the Hungarian capital. On his return to Hungary he was engaged in the manufacture of machinery and owned an iron foundry; he sold the factory in 1920.

Friedrich spent eight years working as an emigrant in the United States. In 1912 he joined the Independence Party of Mihály Károlyi and was considered as part of the left wing of the liberals. During that time he also came in contact with a Masonic lodge. Soon, Friedrich became president of his party's Mátyásföld branch. In 1914 he had accompanied Mihály Károlyi to the United States and since then was one of his closest friends. Károlyi recalled him as a "youtful, idealistic and enthusiastic" who held in high esteem for his "resolute desire for peace". On his way home, Friedrich was interned in France for a short time following the outbreak of the World War I. Returning to Hungary after a successful escape through Spain and Italy, he volunteered and served in the Austro-Hungarian Army, in the artillery, with the rank of lieutenant, and fought at the Uzsok Pass in Carpathian Ruthenia. After having been declared unfit for service on the front, he went to work as a rearguard in Pilsen (Škoda Works) and Vienna (Arsenal), then served as commander of a technical repair unit until his demobilisation from the army in 1917.

Cabinet of Mihály Károlyi and the Soviet republic
During the Aster Revolution at the end of World War I, he led large protests at the Royal Palace of Budapest to demand the appointment of the Károlyi government; he actively participated in and was wounded in the so-called "Battle of the Chain Bridge" on 28 October 1918. Following the formation of the government on 31 October, he was appointed Secretary of State for War in Károlyi's first cabinet on 1 November, which came under his control because of the small size of his superior, minister Béla Linder's entity. According to Károlyi, Friedrich was an "uncontrollable demagogue." The old enthusiasm between the prime minister and his deputy minister cooled quickly. Friedrich approached the more conservative section of the party, while Károlyi relied increasingly on the Social Democrats.

Károlyi proclaimed himself a follower of Woodrow Wilson's Fourteen Points, thus he and his followers trusted the Entente Powers and pinned their hopes for maintaining Hungary's territorial integrity, the securing of a separate peace, and exploiting Károlyi's close connections in France. By contrast, Friedrich, as a prominent member of the moderate wing, rejected Károlyi's "naive" foreign policy and sought to set up a powerful army under the old leadership of military officers, contradicting Linder's pacifist manifesto. After the dismissal of Linder, Friedrich was a close associate of Albert Bartha, the new defence minister. He maintained a relationship with counter-revolutionary groups, thus gradually drifted into the political right-wing.

In the dismemberment of the party that finally took place in January 1919 between conservatives and progressives, Friedrich left, along with the majority, while Károlyi only managed to keep less than a quarter of the party next to him. Friedrich was dismissed as Secretary of State for War on 8 February 1919. He formed an opposition party along with other former cabinet members, such as Minister of Education Márton Lovászy and Minister of the Interior Tivadar Batthyány. In the coming decades, several former colleagues, including Lajos Varjassy, Oszkár Jászi and Mihály Károlyi himself regarded Friedrich as a traitor, who had joined the reactionary forces, abandoning the cause of the short-lived liberal democracy in Hungary.

Following the resignation of the coalition government of Dénes Berinkey on 20 March 1919, which was caused by the intention of the Entente to further reduce the territory controlled by Hungary, the Social Democrats called the Communists to a coalition government, which gained power the next day, leading to the establishment of the Hungarian Soviet Republic. Most prominent liberals left the country or took refuge in the countryside. However, Lovászy and Friedrich remained in the capital. In the face of the Hungarian-Romanian War, the new Soviet government took numerous hostages. On 19 April the authorities arrested Friedrich and sentenced him to death for counter-revolutionary activities. With the aid of People's Commissar Zsigmond Kunfi, a former member of the Károlyi Cabinet, he managed to have the sentence commuted and soon managed to escape with the aid of some of the workers of his factory; he remained in hiding until the end of the Béla Kun government on 1 August 1919.

Coup d'état of 1919

During the period of his internal exile, Friedrich became associated with the White House Comrades Association (Fehérház Bajtársi Egyesület), a right-wing, counter-revolutionary group, which originated from a secret society of intellectuals founded by dentist and well-known anti-Semitic political figure András Csilléry in 1916. Initially sceptical, Friedrich refused to join them and worked closely with Lovászy and Bartha to bring together the formation of a new government after the expected collapse of the Kun regime.

After attempting to negotiate with the new moderate Social Democrat prime minister, Gyula Peidl, in an attempt to replace his government with a coalition where the Socialists would be forced to the background and removed, Friedrich tried to gain support for his project from the representative of the Entente. Failing in both endeavours and fully aware of the conspiracies of the reactionaries, he decided to join the White House to control the plot. The first meeting of the conspirators took place on 1 August 1919 and it was decided that they would take power on 5 August, before the possibility that the prime minister could reach an agreement with the Entente which would reinforce his power or that he would agree to form a new coalition cabinet with the middle class parties. The conspirators communicated their plan to Guido Romanelli, the representative of the Entente in the capital, who rejected it, and the commander of the Romanian occupation troops, who approved it with the condition that the operation did not cause chaos and that the coup leaders acted promptly.

The conspirators who ended up supporting Friedrich were not politicians, but bourgeoisie (officials, university professors, dentists, etc.) with radical right leanings (anti-Semitic, anti-democratic and anti-monarchical). Their first candidate for prime minister was Gyula Pekár, a novelist of little success who was very close to the late prime minister István Tisza. A few days later, Friedrich recommended his friend Márton Lovászy to hold the position of prime minister, however the leadership of the White House objected it on ideological grounds. On 4 August 1919, Friedrich led the monarchical delegation that persuaded Archduke Joseph of Austria, who had "universal prestige" in Hungary, according to Gusztáv Gratz, to travel to Budapest that night to carry out a coup that would overthrow the government of Gyula Peidl, controlled by the trade unionists. However, Joseph was unpopular with the membership of the White House because of his supportive role in the Aster Revolution.

On 5 August, Vilmos Böhm, envoy to Vienna, phoned Budapest to inform his government of his meeting with representatives of the Entente Powers, where they accepted a moderate reorganisation of the Peidl cabinet instead of establishment of a grand coalition. A White House spy informed Csilléry of the conversation's content. Böhm's telephone call confirmed the counterrevolutionary forces' worst fears; the Allied representatives were willing to recognise Peidl's cabinet. The leaders of the White House then felt that they needed to take power immediately.

With the control of the police and some of the military units in the capital on 6 August 1919, that afternoon members of the White House, most notably General Ferenc Schnetzer and Jakab Bleyer, arrested Károly Peyer, the Minister of the Interior, learning that the rest of the cabinet was meeting in council at the Sándor Palace, where they were detained by the coup plotters. At the same time, they had occupied the Ministry of Defence without resistance. After some protests, Peidl's cabinet agreed to resign under threats and with the coup plotters' promise that a coalition government would be formed. Friedrich's participation in the coup was minimal, as he has always tried to resolve the situation by negotiation. Historian Eva S. Balogh argued that he wanted to re-establish the early phases of the Károlyi regime, yet exclude the later shift that led to the Social Democratic Party having more influence in the affairs of the state.

Prime Minister of Hungary
Following the success of the coup, which counted on the Romanian neutrality and the tacit support of the British and the Italians, on 7 August 1919 Friedrich was named prime minister while the archduke became regent. After a one-week transitional period lasting until 15 August, his cabinet was composed primarily of former members of the government of Prime Minister Mihály Károlyi, belonging mainly to the more conservative wing of his Independence Party, which had split during his rule. Friedrich founded his own party Christian National Party (KNP) but it did not have mass support. He was far to the left of the counter-revolutionaries who had plotted the coup against the Peidl government and attempted to carry out, ultimately unsuccessfully, the moderate program that had originally been proposed at the beginning of the government of Károlyi. His government was even weaker than Peidl's and was little more than a collection of conspirators and unknown figures, without members of the nobility that could serve to attract the counterrevolutionary right. The cabinet could not count on British nor Italian military aid, given the practical absence of troops from these countries in the capital, nor could it count on Romanian aid, whose units occupied the city and the eastern territories. The government of Bucharest refused to recognise the Friedrich cabinet. The government of Szeged and the French, for their part, almost immediately tried to do away with the Friedrich government or, if this was impossible, to alter its composition. The neighbouring states, fearful of a restoration of the Habsburgs, supported the French position and showed their opposition to the appointment of Archduke Joseph.

After the seizure of power, Friedrich tried to limit reckoning with the former government's criminals, without much success. Attacks were soon launched on Jews, accused by many reactionaries of being responsible for the Soviet government and any crimes committed during its period. In spite of this, in mid-August he had succeeded in forming a broad coalition government which, however, was not joined by the Socialists. Without these, the Entente refused to recognise the government. The Entente feared that the government, with a ruler from the ancient imperial family, would restore the dynasty.

On 7 August, Friedrich abolished institutions of the Hungarian Soviet Republic and instituted private ownership in industry, commerce and agriculture, following decrees which abrogated the Soviet legacy from the former Peidl Government.

On 23 August, the Archduke decided to resign the regency before opposition from the powers; Friedrich thus lost one of the pillars of his government and the post of head of state remained unfilled.

His attempts to create a military force loyal to his government, independent of the National Army and theoretically subordinate to the government of Szeged, failed due to the Romanian opposition. The few units that managed to reunite mostly defected to the side of Miklós Horthy when they entered Szeged, after evacuating it of the Romanian formations.

Militarily limited, Friedrich tried to politically underpin his government during August and September with successive modifications of the cabinet, first to the left and then to the right, without thereby achieving the recognition of the Entente. With each change of government, refugees, and especially Viennese counterrevolutionaries, were gaining power. Despite failing to achieve recognition of the major powers, the alliances resulted in the formation of a powerful new political party, the Christian National Union Party (KNEP). This party, created in October, brought together important politicians from the northwestern territories of Hungary, the Catholic Church and certain refugees from Transylvania, such as those grouped around István Bethlen and Pál Teleki. Part of the upper-class bourgeoisie also supported the new organisation. The government of Szeged, which had recognised Friedrich's government, had disappeared; the main weakness of this government was the military, and the uncertain possibility at the outset that Horthy should not subordinate his National Army to Friedrich's government, as it happened.

Friedrich tried to earn his loyalty by officially naming himself Commander-in-Chief of the Hungarian Army, a position he already held, but he did not manage to subordinate Horthy to his government, nor transfer his government to the capital. Meanwhile, Horthy controlled the Western territories free of the Romanian occupation through the officers of his army, leaving aside the official officers loyal to the government of Friedrich.

At the beginning of November, the Romanians showed themselves willing to evacuate the capital and the whole territory to the west of the Tisza River, which happened to be controlled by the forces of Horthy, given the lack of significant forces directly subordinate to the government. Faced with the possibility of an extension of a White Terror, practised by officers loyal to Horthy's units, both the Allies and representatives close to the government tried to convince Horthy to limit the crackdown in the capital. After initially promising to subject the Army to control of a new coalition government, he contradicted them and maintained control over it. The large number of detainees under his command intensified after the arrival of Horthy to the capital; political prisoners soon filled the jails.

On 17 November, the Friedrich cabinet imposed Prime Ministerial Decree ME 5985/1919 which established universal suffrage by secret ballot to all citizens (including women) over the age of 24. Thus 74% of the adult population (and 40% of the total population) had access to vote in the January 1920 parliamentary election which was the most democratic election in Hungarian history until the 1945 parliamentary election, as three million citizens had the right to vote. However the first universal suffrage in Hungary proved to be short-lived and temporary, as in early 1922, the Bethlen cabinet at the beginning of the era of consolidation, imposed residency, citizenship, education, age and gender restrictions and reintroduced use of the open ballot system in countryside via Prime Ministerial Decree ME 2200/1922, reducing suffrage by 12% points to 28% of the total population.

Friedrich remained in office as Prime Minister until 24 November, and then transferred to the Ministry of Defence until 15 March 1920, a position of little significance given that the troops obeyed only Horthy. The pressure of the socialist left and the reactionaries led by Miklós Horthy, both supported by the representative of the Entente, led to the resignation of Friedrich. The new government, of which he was a part, was a coalition cabinet that included socialists, liberals and agrarians, but which was controlled by the KNEP. It was led by Károly Huszár, of little political stature and with few followers, elected as a result of the rejection of the candidacy of Horthy and his supporters to that of Albert Apponyi. Supporters of Friedrich theoretically occupied key ministries, such as defence, foreign and interior, but the maintenance of control of the army by Horthy and its independence from the government foiled the chances of Friedrich maintaining political power in the country.

Exit from power
In the elections of February 1920, Friedrich was elected by the KNEP but almost immediately formed an own group with his followers, one of several groups that arose from the parties which had contended in the elections. He was deputy of a small group of Christian Democrats from 1920 to 1939. In 1921, accused in the trial for the murder of István Tisza, he managed to be acquitted. In November of the same year, he was again arrested for participating in the failed attempt to restore the Emperor Charles. Shortly afterwards he became marginalised from national politics.

In July 1951, he was arrested by the government of the Hungarian People's Republic under Mátyás Rákosi and falsely accused of plotting his overthrow. He was sentenced to fifteen years in prison, but died on 25 November 1951. He was posthumously rehabilitated in 1990.

Talk:Modern Hebrew grammar

your recent rv; and a more general subject: Piel Verbs
I don't think I've seen a construction like "Hatkhil ata" ever used in Biblical/classical Hebrew, but I believe you that it's used.

About piel verbs such as "diber" I half-concede your point. You're right that words like diber or izen don't have direct objects. On the other hand, they do have implicit objects--one is speaking or listening to something. You cannot be m'daber to the empty air. I believe that this is, in fact, related to the relative "strength" of pi'el verbs. Still, I'll accept that that is too vague to put in a short aside.

More generally about pi'el verbs, and po'el omed vs. po'el yotzei: I think that something should be added about the "pa'al/pi'el/hitpa'el triangle". The details can be phrased differently, but the point that pi'el often takes the place of hif'il should be mentioned. --Judah

Gerund for nif'al
The nif'al binyan does have a gerund (שם פעולה--shem pe'ulah). For example:

נִכְנַע = surrender הִכָּנְעוּת = surrendering

נִשְׁאַר = remain הִשָּׁאֲרוּת = remaining

נֶאֱכַל = be eaten הֵאָכְלוּת = being eaten

Sentences without verbs
I have removed: "(A more English-like ordering,, literally "it strange that-he said thus", is also possible.)", which is made redundant by changes I have made. I have corrected examples which did not represent well-structured Hebrew sentences. RCSB

Broken plurals?
Quote: Some forms, like אחות ← אחיות (sister) or חמות ← חמיות (mother-in-law) reflect the historical broken plurals of Proto-Semitic, which have been preserved in other Semitic languages (most notably Arabic).

--> Could someone capable check this please?! These forms don't look like Arabic broken plurals at all, but rather like Arabic regular plurals: Those Arabic words ending in -ât take the regular ("sound") plural -ayât, e.g. fatât -> fatayât ("girl[s]"). The Hebrew akhôt -> akhayôt seems to be exactly the same pattern, since Arabic â = Hebrew ô. So I'm positive that these forms have nothing to do with Arabic broken plurals!

Personal pronouns
I expected a section on personal pronouns here, either inside "nouns" or next to it. -- pne (talk) 15:32, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

Gyula Peidl

Gyula Peidl (4 April 1873 – 22 January 1943) was a Hungarian trade union leader and social democrat politician who served as prime minister and acting head of state of Hungary for 6 days in August 1919. His tenure coincided with a period of political instability in Hungary immediately after World War I, during which several successive governments ruled the country.

Early life and career
Gyula Peidl was born on 4 April 1873 in Ravazd, Győr County. His father, a butcher, died early, thus Peidl was raised by his mother. During his apprentice years from 1886 to 1890, he became a typesetter at the printing facility of the Franklin Company. Following this he participated in study tours to Austria, Switzerland and Germany, where came in contact with Social Democratic movements and also learnt German. Returning home, he headed the printer's union from 1900 to 1908, and from 1909 onwards. He was one of the founding members of the General Consumer Cooperative (ÁFOSZ) in 1904. He was elected secretary of the organisation in 1908. As a journalist, he edited the weekly newspapers Typographia and Szövetkezeti Értesítő. He also served as a Board Member of the National Workers' Insurance Fund (Országos Munkásbiztosító Pénztár).

In 1909 he joined the leadership of the Social Democratic Party of Hungary (MSZDP). During the Mihály Károlyi era following World War I and proclamation of the First Hungarian People's Republic, he was Minister of Labour and Welfare in the government of Dénes Berinkey. In opposition to the union of the party with the Party of Communists in Hungary (KMP) at the beginning of the Hungarian Soviet Republic, he resigned his position in the leadership but maintained his membership in the new unified party, called the Socialist Party of Hungary (MSZP).

In July 1919, Romanian troops crossed the Tisza river and marched towards Budapest. On 1 August 1919, the Hungarian Soviet Republic ended and a government formed by Social Democrats and controlled by union leaders replaced it; the leader of the former government, Béla Kun, left the country the next day. The new government unanimously accepted the transfer of power after the Romanian invasion of the capital and, subsequently, the end of the Hungarian Soviet Republic. Sándor Garbai, the Chairman of the Central Executive Council summoned Peidl and communicated his request to form a government, as well as a list of ministers, which Peidl reluctantly accepted because of his closeness to the former cabinet.

The government's position was weak, subject to various pressures: opponents in the capital, Horthy's counter-revolutionary National Army, desertion by some smaller military units, or defectors who left the Socialists after having supported the Hungarian Soviet Republic.

His government
The cabinet, which contained four of Kun's former government commissioners (including Garbai himself), quickly transformed into Social Democrats, who retained important ministerial portfolios (including Defence and Foreign Affairs). At its first meeting on 2 August 1919, it officially dissolved the Hungarian Soviet Republic and declared again the Hungarian People's Republic; the people's courts were disbanded and former political prisoners were released from prisons. The release of the opponents reinforced the counter-revolutionaries. The country worked without a head of the state nor head of government.

Former private owners were given nationalised former properties. Landowners were not transferred nationalised estates, however, as a gesture to the peasantry.

On the same day, the National Smallholders and Agrarian Workers Party (OKGFP) was invited into the government, and the Allied representative promised an end to the economic blockade. Peidl's government tried to demonstrate to the Allies its break with the previous government and its willingness to pursue a policy of moderation. The Allies, however, refused to recognise the new government for having only socialist members. The Romanian occupation army was not willing either to support the new government or to protect it from the counterrevolutionary forces.

Meanwhile, on the same day, the army recovered Szolnok on the outskirts of Budapest and ejected the Romanians. The Allies ordered their representative to begin negotiations with Peidl if he accepted, as he did, the Belgrade armistice; At the same time Peidl requested an army of occupation, partly to counter the Romanians and Czechs and partly to reinforce the power of his government.

On 4 August 1919, the Hungarian Red Guard was dissolved and the Hungarian police force was established. The capture of communist leaders was secretly ordered. The new government, however, had no real control over any armed force, and the battalions of the workers had been dissolved.

The measures taken quickly by the new government tried to win the sympathies of the bourgeoisie and the peasantry, while the cabinet began on 5 August 1919 a round of talks with the liberal parties. On the same day, and at the request of the Allied representative, the Red Guard, now particularly and disorganised and weak, and the other volunteer units were fully dissolved. Also on that day, Peidl's government ordered the withdrawal of the printed currency of the Hungarian Soviet Republic and the currency of the monarchy was reinstituted into legal circulation.

Overthrow
At the same time, the counterrevolutionary forces conspired to overthrow the government and put the Hungarian prince (and Austrian archduke) Joseph August in power. On the night of the 4 August 1919, the prince was brought from his castle to Budapest with the idea of seizing power the next day. Peidl received a communication from Vienna announcing that the Allies would support the government if it included bourgeois elements, which encouraged the counterrevolutionaries to accelerate their plans, backed by Traian Moșoiu, the Romanian military governor of Budapest, but rejected by the Allied representative.

The Romanians seized the capital on the request of refugee counterrevolutionaries in Vienna, against Allied warnings. In the rest of the country, the collapse of the communist administration and the power vacuum left behind led to chaos. The situation was not much better in the occupied capital, where looting and retaliation took place.

On 6 August 1919, the police and part of the army were already in the hands of the counterrevolutionary conspirators. That afternoon they arrested Károly Peyer, the Minister of the Interior, and learned that the government was meeting in the Sándor Palace. General Ferenc Schnetzer occupied, with Romanian support, the Ministry of Defense, without resistance. At the same time, a representative of the Allies appeared before the cabinet, backed by forty mounted policemen and some officers. He demanded, with threats of arrest, the resignation of the government. Peidl protested feebly and asked the assailants to withdraw. After receiving promises of personal security and the formation, in a few months, of a coalition government, the government decided to cede to the ultimatum. A Romanian contingent in the vicinity of the palace did not intervene.

On 7 August 1919, the King of Romania, Ferdinand I, entered the capital. On the same day, Prince Joseph August became regent and István Friedrich, an industrialist, built a new government with career officials from the various ministries and part of the conspirators, generally bourgeois plebeians.

The coup frustrated the possibilities of collaboration between socialists and liberals, and took away from the government some prominent political figures opposed to the seizure of power by force.

After the government
After the coup, Peidl became chair of the printer's trade union again. Representing the working class, he participated in the grand coalition talks intermediated by Allied representative George Clerk in early November. Peidl went into exile in Austria on 18 November 1919, after receiving an increasing number of death threats from far-right paramilitary groups. He resided in Vienna and Sankt Radegund bei Graz, where he worked as a proofreader, until his return to Hungary in November 1921, where he resumed his trade union activity. He became President of the General Consumer Cooperative. He actively participated in the restructuring process of the Social Democratic Party as a prominent member of the moderate and anti-communist wing.

Peidl was elected Member of Parliament for Szeged (2nd constituency) in the 1922 parliamentary election. From 1922 to 1931 he led the Hungarian Social Democratic Party parliamentary group in the unicameral National Assembly then the House of Representatives. When the conservative cabinet of István Bethlen applied for a loan from the League of Nations in 1924, Peidl was a member of a Social Democratic delegation to London which urged the British government not to fulfill the request until the re-adoption of universal suffrage, the abolition of the numerus clausus and the extension of assembly act. Peidl retired from politics just before the 1931 parliamentary election. He died in Budapest on 22 January 1943.

Sándor Garbai

Sándor Garbai (27 March 1879 – 7 November 1947) was a Hungarian socialist politician who served as both head of state and prime minister the de jure leader of the Hungarian Soviet Republic.

Life and political career
Garbai was born into the family of a Protestant bricklayer. An active participant in the labor movement from a young age, he joined the Social Democratic Party of Hungary (MSZDP) in 1901 and quickly rose through its ranks. From 1908 he was the chairman of the Workers' Insurance Fund and during the First Hungarian Republic he headed the All National Housing Council. He was in favour of the merger of the MSZDP with the Hungarian Communist Party which occurred on 21 March 1919. This led to the foundation of the Hungarian Soviet Republic, with Garbai as the Revolutionary Governing Council, both head of state and prime minister. Although Garbai remained titular leader of the Soviet Republic for the better part of its existence, the de facto leader of the state was Communist foreign minister Béla Kun. According to historian Jerry Z. Muller, Mátyás Rákosi later joked that the revolution's Jewish leaders took the gentile Garbai in so that they would have somebody to sign the death sentences on Shabbat.

After the fall of the Soviet Republic, he was arrested by the Romanian military. Fearing reprisals, Garbai escaped from Romanian captivity in Cluj and fled to Czechoslovakia and first in settled Bratislava and then emigrated to Vienna. He was a leader of the centrist Marxist movement among the Hungarian political refugees. With his family, he opened a restaurant in Vienna, where he hosted former communist and other socialist leaders. The restaurant soon went bankrupt, Garbai suffered huge financial losses and lived in poverty for the rest of his lifetime. After leaving Austria in 1934 due to the victory of the right-wing Fatherland Front, he settled in Bratislava, and in 1938, in Paris.

During the German occupation of France he did not participate in the Resistance Movement, although the underground tried to recruit him. He was also not bothered by the German occupiers. After the liberation of Hungary, Garbai and his family desired to return to their homeland but their request was rejected. Garbai remained in Paris where he died on 7 November 1947.

Talk:Curveball (informant)

internal consistency" paragraph should be...
The point of the "internal consistency" paragraph is that anyone with a modicum of engineering training in the CIA who saw what Curveball was claiming should have been able to perceive that his claims didn't ring true. Curveball claimed to be an engineer yet what he said was (it appears) all layman-level and unperceptive of engineering concerns and attitudes.

This is disturbing. With its multi-billion dollar budget and its essential function you'd want to be confident that the CIA was not vulnerable to utter crap from any source. One of the ways to avoid falling for utter crap would be to submit raw intelligence to analysis by experts. Submit engineering-related raw intelligence to analysis by engineers, submit science-related raw intelligence to analysis by scientists. If that is not routinely done we might as well convert the CIA building to an ordinary office building: the CIA is useless

(Of course I'd also like to see the same thing done by newspapers and media. I have never seen anything written on the trailers in Iraq that indicates the reporter checked any aspect of the material with a qualified engineer or scientist.  )

This is significant. '''I'm a chemist, I've made hydrogen (on a backyard-experiment scale) using the same reaction as was used on those trailers. Anyone who has done the experiment knows that in addition to hydrogen the reaction produces a lot of heat.''' On the trailers that would be a great deal of heat. From personal experience I recognize that the cooling unit that was explained so ridiculously in the CIA/DIA white paper is an essential component of the hydrogen-generation system on the trailers. The cooling unit isn't proof of biological use, it's far more proof of hydrogen generation.

It's also absurd science to claim that the cooling unit is even marginally appropriate for biological WMD culture. Anyone who has done biological culture (this includes millions of home bakers and home brewers) knows that temperature is one of the most critical parameters in a biological culture process. You'd not want a simple "cooling unit," you'd want a full temperature-control system. (Note that the unit in the drawings shown by Powell at the UN had no temperature control system. Those drawings were concocted by persons not well versed in biological culture.  David Kay was associated with that project.)

I'd still prefer to believe that the points I raise here were recognized quite early by the analysts at the CIA and that those analysts had their opinions suppressed: the CIA was used as a political tool despite its own expertise. John Prados reports (in "Hoodwinked") that at a meeting of analysts on the nature of the trailers only one analysts supported the biological EMD culture fable. That's despicable, but at least in that interpretation the CIA isn't completely filled with blundering, politically-motivated fools.

My point is that it isn't necessary to know (from some source) that Curveball was regarded as unreliable. The information he supplied in itself indicates he was unreliable.

'''Note, too, that Tenet never said that the CIA believed the trailers were for biological WMD culture. All he said was that "analysts" (plural) at the CIA believed the trailers were for biological WMD culture.'''

Minasbeede 16:08, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Minasbeede, you sound like you know what you're talking about, but that's not really the issue. WP:VERIFIABILITY requires that information in our articles be not only 'true', but 'provably' true. Without citations from reputable sources that can't be done in this case. If you can find a newspaper or magazine article that recapitulates some or all of what you've said, it would be a very welcome addition to the article. Otherwise it's not really appropriate IMO.

 * Eleland 19:27, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Well, OK, that makes sense. What needs to be provable?  What Tenet said, the fact that the reaction used to generate the hydrogen generates heat, what?  I'm asking the straight-forward question: what do I say that need proof?

 * Part of my problem is that the press, media and left have bungled on this issue, probably because for most of them there is an utter lack of scientific or engineering understanding. If there were published articles on these points then the situation would be far different.  As it stands the utter garbage fabrications (that's not an exaggeration) in the CIA/DIA white paper would not have the general acceptability that they have.

 * It's like if Curveball claimed he was an automotive engineer and was reporting on what was under the hood of a vehicle. If he said there was a big block of metal with round white things sticking out and wires or tubes going to the tops of the white things you should right away know that no, he is not the automotive engineer he claims to be.  An automotive engineer would see an engine block and head of a particular type of metal and would recognize spark plugs and ignition wiring.  That's the kind of dissonance that appears to be the essence of Curveball's reports (since we don't see the raw reports we do have to assume that information that showed he was familiar with the field in which he claimed to have been trained wasn't removed from what he said. before publication.)  Even if that did happen that would be another invalidation of the white paper.

 * There was a Jay Bookman column in which he declared the CIA/DIA white paper to be a lie. will that do?

 * When I state that bakers and brewers know that temperature is a major parameter for a biological culture I am attempting to point out that what I am saying is common knowledge - and probably common knowledge that goes back millenia. Do I have to cite a source for that statement?  (That may sound peevish and I guess it is, at heart, but the straight answer to the question should suffice.)

 * The essence of "internal consistency" is that Curveball claimed to be an engineer but didn't talk like an engineer. I'd be very glad for that to have been reported in the press but as it stands Wikipedia is de facto an original source.  Is that improper?  In the automotive engineer example above would I actually have to show a magazine article somewhere that made the same case if Curveball had claimed to be an automotive engineer and had made an uninformed report such as I suggested as an example?

 * Thank you for your time and your comment. I see you (aparently) inserted some helpful hints in the article itself.  (If others read this I'd like their comments.)  Perhaps a better word than "poseur" could be used but all the word means is somebody who claims to be what he isn't.  If I found some reasonably short defintion of "engineer" that showed an engineer was, by the nature of his profession, concerned with "the function of components, material flow, energy flow, control of parameters, conditions," would that be satisfactory?  I don't think I will ever find a definition of what a non-engineer is like.  If Curveball were an engineer my belief is that what he said would reflect an engineer's interests and concerns.  Instead he describes things more the way a politician or cab driver might, if the politician or cab driver had no actual understanding of the considerations involved.  The CIA/DIA white paper might be convincing to a politician or cab driver with no further knowledge.  To someone with a scientific or engineering background who bothers to study the white paper it should be obvious that it's utter nonsense.

 * I do stand naked here: as far as I know there's nothing published anywhere that makes many of the points that can and should have been made. I am unable to provide citations and we could share a pitcher or two bemoaning that fact.  The white paper was a crude and naked fraud.  It has not been exposed as such, although it is reported in "Hubris" that the State Department analysts were angered by the white paper.  "Hubris" does not give detail about what it was that angered the State Department analysts.  I suggest that they were angry because they also saw that the white paper was an utter fabrication.  I'll agree that they may not have cared about Curveball: the flaws of the white paper are not by any stretch of the imagination all from that now known-to-be-unreliable source.  But they were angry.  I applaud their anger.

 * Thanks for your comment. What have I accomplished here?

 * Minasbeede 02:31, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

 * I removed the paragraph in question. I'd like to continue the discussion, though.

 * Minasbeede 13:58, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Discovered trailers

 * Well of course a team of scientists was sent to Iraq to examine the trailers and that team did report back to Washington that the trailers were not for biological WMD culture and that report did reach Washington before the white paper was released. That contrary report was instantly marked "SECRET" and is still classified.  It is believed that the annex to the Duelfer report (final report on the US search for WMDS in Iraq) substantially echoes that still-classified report.  The annex, which has a professional sheen to it. does conclude that hydrogen generation was the most likely use of the trailers.  If you read the relevant chapter in "Hoodwinked," by John Prados, you will discover that at  a meeting of intelligence analysts about the trailers only one analyst believed that the trailers were for biological WMD culture.  So when Tenet said "analysts" in his building believed the trailers were for biological WMD culture (in the sophisticated Washington environment you have to give significant notice to the fact that Tenet did not say he believed it nor did he say the CIA believed it) either Tenet was promoting that one analyst into two or more analysts or one or more analysts with that belief didn't make it to the meeting Prados describes.  Minasbeede 21:03, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Not sure what you referencing but Tenet called Powell in late summer 2003, seven months after the U.N. speech, he admitted that all of the CIA's claims Powell used in his speech about Iraqi weapons were wrong. "They had hung on for a long time, but finally Tenet called Powell to say, 'We don't have that one, either,' " Wilkerson recalled. "The mobile labs were the last thing to go." -- AperfectHell 05:10, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

 * I'm pretty sure it was an earlier Joby Warrick article that told about the suppressed report from Iraq. (Yes, here it is: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/04/11/AR2006041101888_pf.html)

 * I understand that, chronologically, the mobile labs were the last thing to go. My point is that the mobile lab story was never credible.  It shouldn't have been the first thing to go (instead of the last), it was so bogus that it should never have been, period.  The white paper made the story less credible - if you read the white paper knowing about the reaction used to make hydrogen and knowing even a little about biological culture.  The materials used to make hydrogen were found on the trailers (And reported in the white paper.)  The white paper disguised one of the materials (sodium hydroxide, common lye) by calling it "caustic."  No trace of anything remotely related to biological culture was ever reported as being found on the trailers.  The photo of the trailers reveals a system for a chemical process, not a system for a biological culture.  The white paper is riddled with flaws that defeat its purpose of providing support for the mobile culture lab fable.  The technical mission to Iraq and the Duelfer report reached the conclusion that the trailers were not for biological WMD culture.  Substantially all the evidence available to the writers of the suppressed report and the Duelfer report was available to the writers of the white paper.  The writers of the white paper didn't provide a logical or a technical analysis, they provided spin crafted to support the mobile culture lab fable. Minasbeede 14:16, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Name of article
The reason I changed the name of the article back to its original name is very simply because that is what he is universally known as; very few people would have a clue as to who Rafid Ahmed Alwan might be. ("Curveball AND Iraq" gets 366,000 G-hits, while "Rafid Ahmed Alwan" gets only 4400 G-hits.) This is in clear conformity with Wikipedia:MOSBIO, which states: "While the article title should generally be the name by which the subject is most commonly known, the subject's full name should be given in the lead paragraph...." Cgingold (talk) 00:49, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

You are right, because he has also changed his name, according to an article in 'Die Welt'. We want people to find the information and his two Arab names do not make that easier. According to the German TV program 'Panorama' he has become a German citizen and was paid a wage for some years, now social security called Hartz IV (Die Welt). Die Welt wrote also that only two weeks after 9/11 in 2001 the Americans demanded/requested all material on Iraq from the German secret service BND. As he came in 1999, he must have been in the files they handed over.

I have seen Curveball (in English) here, minute 54: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSiE8s36fEM

My vibes were that dishonesty oozed from his every buttonhole and I wondered if he had been paid for concocting that information, but vibes are no proof, of course. That's something for another day. 144.136.192.62 (talk) 03:23, 28 November 2012 (UTC)

Why "See also 'burn notice'" and "last in class"?
If the man got a burn notice (did he?) or was last in his class (was he?), those can be put in the article body. A "see also" and an info box seem like the wrong places for alleged facts and implications. Calbaer (talk) 17:16, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

BND´s support for Curveball
Curveball received EUR 3.000 monthly from a cover company of the BND. He was employed as a freelancer of the cover company. Furthermore they paid a fully furbished apartment with all amenities. During Iraqi election campaign he went to Iraq and founded a party. A campaign boradcast showed him complaining on Iraqi TV that the country needs more honest people in politics. 5 years after the invasion he was granted German citizenship, long after BND realized that his stories were in fact fairytales. Finally, the payments stopped in 2009 and he was forced to leave the apartment since he did not pay the rent. His landlord sued him and court forced him to move out. Today he gets around EUR 1490 monthly from social funds of the government. Malenykij polgar (talk) 09:09, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

Harry Litwack

Harold "Chief" Litwack (September 20, 1907 – August 7, 1999) was an American college basketball coach. He served as head basketball coach at Temple University from 1952 to 1973, compiling a record of 373–193. He was inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame in 1973.

Coaching career
Litwack was born in Galicia, Austria-Hungary (modern-day Poland) but raised in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He graduated from Temple in 1930. He began his coaching career at Simon Gratz High School (1930–31), then he became head coach of the freshman team at Temple. Meanwhile, he was playing pro basketball with Eddie Gottlieb's all-Jewish Philadelphia Sphas, from 1930 to 1936. Before he became head coach at Temple in 1952, he also served briefly as assistant coach for the Philadelphia Warriors (1948–51). He died at the age of 91 in 1999.

He coached Team USA's gold-medal winning team at the 1957 Maccabiah Games in Israel, and its silver medal-winning team at the 1973 Maccabiah Games.

Changhe

Changhe, officially Jiangxi Changhe Automobile Co Ltd, is a Chinese automobile manufacturer based in Jingdezhen, Jiangxi province, China.

Currently a majority-owned subsidiary of a large, state-owned automaker, BAIC, Changhe was previously engaged in a joint venture with Suzuki Motor Corporation of Japan, and some of the products it manufactures carry the Suzuki brand.

It may be a partner in the lesser of the two Suzuki joint ventures in China, and in the span of six years from 2008-2014 Changhe underwent a series of ownership changes and mergers that saw it transform from a subsidiary of a sedentary maker of military aircraft to a neglected division of a struggling, second-rate automaker (Chang'an) already overburdened with excess production lines for Suzuki microvans at a time when consumers in third- and fourth-tier cities were snapping up cheap and cheerful sedans and hatchbacks. As of 2014, Changhe's prospects look brighter having been merged with a different state-owned automaker (BAIC) serving first-tier cities but looking to expand into the faster growing interior of the country.

Making cars and microvans, small trucks and vans for commercial purposes, Changhe has an estimated 200,000 (227,000 to 260,000 ) units/year production capacity as of 2010. Production capacity figures may consider engines and vehicles as discrete.

History
A subsidiary of the Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC) until 2010, perhaps it was the dictate of the Chinese government that prompted a large, state-owned automaker to take Changhe under its wing in a 2009 merger. Between that year and 2013, Chang'an held ownership of the company but was unable to boost growth prompting another merger with a more competent, state-owned partner, BAIC.

Having always been a smaller, dynamic vehicle manufacturer, Changhe was well established by 1973, the year trial production of buses began. Originally only making buses, the introduction of a small passenger vehicle (the Suzuki Carry ST90V) began in 1982 and sparked a long relationship with this Japanese automaker. Currently, Changhe companies make both Suzuki and Changhe-branded vehicles. In 1995, it entered a legal partnership with Suzuki forming a joint venture, Jiangxi Changhe-Suzuki Automobile Co Ltd. This JV does not make all the Suzuki-branded automobiles sold on the Chinese market as some are produced by another Chinese joint venture, Changan Suzuki. Imported models are marketed by Suzuki Motor (China) Investment Co Ltd.

Suzuki may currently be unhappy with its Chinese partners. Despite being an early entrant in the Chinese auto market, this Japanese company has lackluster sales in the country. Suzuki's efforts to change the situation by merging its two joint ventures—since Chinese business law does not allow any foreign company more than two—have so far been stymied by its Chinese partners, who instead hope Suzuki will improve their situation. The Chinese state may also not want new foreign-Chinese joint auto-making ventures at this time. An effort to sell the entire Suzuki model range at unified dealerships fell through in 2008. (This may have been tried again in 2010.) Changhe-Suzuki's first products were versions of the Suzuki Carry microvans and trucks. As of 2010, microvan products include the Suzuki Wagon R (called the Big Dipper and in ) and the newer Suzuki Landy. In 2006, Changhe themselves introduced the new microvan CH6390 Freedom (also called Friend), which has Suzuki underpinnings but a Changhe-designed body.

While microvans continue to be a core product, several recently introduced small cars have expanded the company's offerings. These include the subcompact Changhe Ideal (first seen in October 2003), a self-developed car albeit with styling by Bertone and some Suzuki technology. The Suzuki Liana is also offered. While lower-end Changhes depend on common, Chinese-built engines also used by a variety of other local brands, Changhe builds the Suzuki K12B and K14B engines for use in higher-end versions. These have seen use in a variety of Changhe products, including the Suzuki Wagon R, Liana, and Landy, as well as the Freedom and Ideal.

Export
Changhe has exported to some European and South American nations. These exports may be in the form of complete knock-down kits and are likely fitful and sporadic.

Latin America
Some Changhe models are sold in Brazil and Uruguay under the brand name Effa, and here the Ideal has been renamed the M100. Total Brazilian sales of the Ideal in 2010 were a reported 426 units. In Venezuela, the first Latin American country to receive a Changhe product (2007), the official dealer of the Changhe Ideal was Cinascar, but this model is no longer listed on Cinascar's website. In Peru and/or Colombia, Faga Motors sells various Changhe microvans.

Europe
Italian importer Martin Motors rebadges and sells the Changhe Landy as a Martin Motors Coolcar. The Ideal is known in Italy as the Martin Ideal 1000.

The Ideal is also marketed in the Ukraine.

IPO
Listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange or Shenzhen Stock Exchange in 2001, Changhe was delisted in 2008 prior to its 2009 sale.
