"The answer to the Jewish question is Israel" - wrote a Hungarian far-right blog around 2008-2009. It was an unpopular opinion back then, as Jobbik was a literal Islamophile party, because killing LGBT people and death penalty to robbers, but nowadays it's a popular sentiment among fascist pretending to be "moderates" by calling themselves "conservatives". Even Jobbik isn't that radical anymore, especially compared to both Fidesz (which stole their racist and homophobic ideas, but watered them down) and Mi Hazánk (formed by ex-Jobbik members, has suspicious ties to Fidesz).
Sounds like a branch of ethno pluralism. The word looks fancy but it's just a euphemism for "go back where you come from" – "I'm born here" – "No, where you really come from".
Ethno pluralists will most certainly claim that all Jews come from Israel and it's an empty land (to just ignore the question where Palestinians supposedly come from).
