The Pictures Tell the Tale: The Vatican and Nazism in Germany and Croatia

The Vatican claims that Nazism was a pagan phenomenon, opposed to the Catholic Church, and that the Catholic hierarchy never aided the Nazis. But if this is so, what is the content of the much-praised Vatican apology regarding its role in the Holocaust? Consider the words of Joseph Ratzinger, who is now Pope Benedict XVI. He was Pope John Paul II's right hand man when he wrote the following:

"'Even if the most recent, loathsome experience of the Shoah (Holocaust) was perpetrated in the name of an anti-Christian ideology, which tried to strike the Christian faith at its Abrahamic roots in the people of Israel, it cannot be denied that a certain insufficient resistance to this atrocity on the part of Christians can be explained by an inherited anti-Judaism present in the hearts of not a few Christians.'"
--Ratzinger as quoted by Abe Foxman in an Anti-Defamation League press release welcoming the papacy of Joseph Ratzinger.

Ratzinger's apology amounts to saying, "I'm sorry for what some other people might have done."

But the evidence shows that:

* a) The Catholic Church hierarchy - especially Eugenio Pacelli, before and after he became Pope Pius XII - aided the Nazis. Indeed, Pacelli played a key role in making Hitler dictator of Germany;

* b) The Catholic Church was active in Nazi movements outside Germany especially in the Baltic region and in the Balkans, where it helped run the Nazi puppet State of Croatia. After the war, the Vatican sheltered Nazi war criminals.

* c) As for Nazism being a "Godless ideology," as Pope John Paul II put it, the fact is the Nazis used Christian symbolism, worked closely with Christian churches and based their attacks on Jews in part on Christian texts, with which Europeans were familiar. The use of these texts was not attacked by the Church.

So the Nazis have taken over the Catholic Church.

Now all they need is for Swartznegger to become president and they'll be running America and the rest of the Western world.
