There were abuses, mistakes, arrests and murders [made by Hungarians] - this is unquestionable. Nevertheless, unlike the 1944 September-October anti-Hungarian vengeance campaign, these events were far from being organized.

The article tends to attribute Romanians an overreaction to the crimes of Hungarians in the same area. I have to refute the above statement. My grandfather, who fought in Transylvania at Toplita-Prunisor, was eye witness of columns of Romanian refugees, who said that the Hungarians soldiers were burning their houses in their controlled regions.

Unlike the previous document, this one deserves attention. It focuses around the crimes of the Black Coats (Sutanele Negre) under the leadership of Gavril Olteanu.

That is Sumanele Negre. The article has been presented on the forum in another threads and it is clearly more scholarly written and researched.

Nobody said that.

I didn't say that either. I said that the abuses, mistakes, arrests and murders made by Hungarians were organized too.

The Romanians killed were villagers and soldiers captured during the battles of Oarba de Mures - Ludus - Chetani.

I'm not even sure wether the casualty count from atrocities can reveal something we didn't know or help explaining anything at all. What make me smile, but it shouldn't, is how one people's "massacre" becomes another people's "affair" or "revenge" in a war of words trying to take root in past ghosts. Rather futile.
