Pope Pius XII was the Pope during the Nazi era and he has been accused of being indifferent at best to the fate of the Jews who came unstuck then. By the same token Ariel Sharon has not been accused of being indifferent to the fate of the Palestinians in the Zionist era. He was an enthusiastic murderer and terrorist like most if not all Jewish prime ministers in Israel. But that is not quite the point of this little essay.
Pius wrote and published Mit Brennender Sorge [ With Burning Care is my amateur translation ] in 1937, an encyclical which was unusual because it was published first in German rather than Latin and told us thereby who it was written for. He wrote about the Nazi's breach of the Concordat with the German Reich (1933) and in favour of peace in Germany.
If you ever wonder what the Jews did to help
themselves and the rest of us during the war you could visit the cemetery at
Oosterbeek near
Arnhem. It is just one among hundreds in North West Europe. Then
you can count the stars among the headstones with crosses on. Englishmen,
Australians, Canadians and Americans are there. So are Poles and men of the
Wehrmacht but there are not half a dozen Jews among a thousand graves. So the
answer is - not a lot. One of the
reasons why the Jews [ read that as Zionists ] are doing a huge marketing
effort to sell the Holocaust® story is that it deflects criticism of their genocidal
policies in Israel. The money is another and we are looking at billions.
More on that at World Jewish Congress Here are some sources pro and con. Read for yourself. Think for
yourself. Decide for yourself.
Pope Pius XII and the Holocaust
The 'Holocaust' and Vatican Archives
A committee of enquiry was set up with three Jews and three
Catholics to investigate the facts. The Jews sent a list of 47 questions before
they arrived and did not take the time to read the answers produced for them.
They were unable to read Italian which is the language of most of the source
documents. They had
in any event made up their minds before getting anywhere near Rome. The whole
thing was a political boondoggle. Thus saith Ronald J. Rychlak who was
there on the day.

Pius XII -from the Wikipedia
Papal letter on baptized Jewish children called a 'red
herring'
Righteous Gentiles
From the end of
World War II until well after his death, Pius XII was universally respected for
his leadership in the extraordinarily difficult years of the Third Reich. The
first attack was Rolf Hochhuth’s 1963 play The Deputy, accusing the pope
of indifference to Jewish suffering in the Holocaust. John Cornwell
revived the charge in Hitler’s Pope (1999), and Gary Wills, James
Carroll, and Daniel Goldhagen have made the revisionist attack on the
wartime
Church
a popular genre.
Rychlak exposes
the inconsistent charges, false allegations, and manufactured evidence against
Pius XII and his predecessor, the German clergy, and the Catholic Church under
Nazi occupation. His comprehensive and thoroughly documented account establishes
once and for all that the Catholic Church under Pius XII, far from being
indifferent to the Jews, was dedicated to saving them from the Nazis at all
costs. The fruit of this concern was the rescue of over half a million Jews from
the death camps. Rychlak lays to rest the “black legend” of the Church during
World War II, showing that Pius XII and those he directed deserve the title
“righteous gentiles.”

Pope Pius XII Saved Jews From Adolf Then Got Libelled With Malice Aforethought
[
18 March 2012 ] The earlier edition was already notable
for the taking up and dealing with by means of well-documented facts and
carefully thought-out arguments the unjustly criticized pontificate of Pope
Pius XII and, in particular, in evaluating the pope’s reactions and behavior
in the face of the holocaust against the Jews brought about by Hitler and
the Nazis. A new book by John Connelly, a professor of history at the University of
California-Berkeley, shows a similar phenomenon in the 20th century:
converted Jews were instrumental in creating the Vatican II document
Nostra Aetate
which changed the historic position of the Catholic
Church toward the Jews (“Converts
Who Changed the Church: Jewish-Born Clerics Helped Push Vatican II Reforms“).
As with their New Christian predecessors, the technique was to find passages
of Scripture that conformed to their ethnic interests in raising the status
of Judaism yet remaining within the intellectual confines of Catholicism:
Nostra Aetate confirmed that Christ, his mother and the apostles were
Jews, and that the church had its origin in the Old Testament. It denied
that the Jews may be held collectively responsible for Jesus Christ’s
death, and decried all forms of hatred, including anti-Semitism. Citing
the Letter of St. Paul to the Romans,
Nostra Aetate
called the Jews
“most beloved” by God. [ Rather a change from Christ Killers - Editor
] These words … staged a revolution in Catholic
teaching. From the Jewish point of view, a revolution was highly desirable. The article
on Judaism in The Catholic Encyclopaedia from 1910 —
during the papacy of Pius
X (who is highly regarded by traditionalist Catholics)— is
instructive. Jews in the time of Jesus are described as a “race”
that rejected the call of Jesus for repentance, showing no sorrow for sin,
unfit for salvation and rejecting the true kingdom of God in favour of
earthly power:....... As with the New Christian intellectuals of the 15th century, the
converted Jews who influenced Vatican II managed to attain the intellectual
high ground........ From an evolutionary perspective, the Jews who over the centuries have
become priests and bishops while advancing Jewish interests are examples of
altruism on behalf of their ethnic group. By becoming Catholic clergy they
would typically forego marriage and family. But their behaviour as insiders
in an institution that historically had been generally negative toward
Judaism shows that they may nevertheless advance the interests of their
ethnic group without personally reproducing.

Holy Mother Church responds to the accusations and quotes the
Israeli consul, Pinchas E. Lapide, in his book,
THREE POPES AND THE JEWS an Israeli Diplomat's Disclosures About
papal-Judaic Relations Since the Start of WW II
(New York: Hawthorn Books, Inc., 1967) at page 214 as saying that Pope
Pius XII and the Church saved 860,000 Jews from Nazi death camps. That
would be enough to please most people but not in this case.
Three million Catholics were murdered in the Holocaust but they don't whine
about their problems or demand compensation. Bert Einstein, a left wing, Jewish
atheist takes a favourable view too.
The Holy See has published relevant documents, 11 volumes of them
as Actes et Documents du Saint Siege Relatifs a la Seconde Guerre Mondiale which
tell anyone who cares to read them that the Pope did a great deal to help Jews. These
volumes were extensively ignored.
PS, they published their "interim report" while they were in Rome
and before having had time to report.
The Jewish Virtual Library is against the Pope. Jews in America
are often inciting trouble in Israel, the Stolen Land. The current Pope has had
little enough to say about ethnic cleansing and mass murders in Israel but the
JVL is not making that point.
This is a biographical
piece. Before trusting the Wikipedia's position on
anything even slightly contentious you should have a look at
Control of
internet information to find out who owns it and who edits it.
The Jerusalem Report takes an anti-papal line but tells us that two Jews who are
involved thought the letter was an irrelevance. They push the story that Pius should have done
more to help Jews. There is not a word about helping Gypsies, homosexuals or
other undesirables.
QUOTE
A relentless band of propagandists has convinced much of the
world that Pope Pius XII and the Catholic Church, in the face of the great moral
crisis of the twentieth century, were little more than Nazi lapdogs. The myth of
“Hitler’s pope,” however, is grounded not in the facts of history but in the
ideological agenda of Pius’s detractors. Given unprecedented access to Church
archives—including a confidential Vatican
report on Pius XII—Ronald J. Rychlak documents the heroic response of the Holy
Father and countless other Catholics to the plight of Jews under Nazi rule.
UNQUOTE
Professor Rychlak is lying in his
teeth while Jews tell it like it is OR vice versa. There is no middle ground.
Given the Jewish track record of cunning, lying, treachery fraud, slaving,
political manipulation, mass murder et cetera the choice is easy. Read for
yourself. Think for yourself. Decide for yourself.

in The Telegraph on 15 October 2006 tells us at some length that Pope Pius was
lied about. A third of his book explains that Holy Mother Church was very
important in opposing Adolf throughout the time of the Third Reich.

Accusations that wartime Pope Pius XII was an anti-Semite who
turned a blind eye to the Holocaust are part of a "black legend" not supported
by historical documents, the author of a new biography says..... Some Jews have
accused Pius, who reigned from 1939 to 1958, of being indifferent to the
Holocaust and not speaking out against Hitler. His supporters consider him a
holy man who worked behind the scenes to help Jews throughout Europe.
Tornielli's latest book, published by Mondadori, also includes excerpts from
letters the future pope wrote to his family in the early 1930s when he was
Vatican ambassador in Germany, expressing concern over the rise of Hitler.

Haaretz sounds more or less even handed on this one. The case against him is

Krupp, who is Jewish,..... announced last year that Pave the Way,...... would
investigate the papacy of Pius XII by interviewing eyewitnesses and gathering
publicly available documentation and newspaper accounts.

University of Mississippi Professor of Law
Ronald J. Rychlak published a book ten years ago with the same title as that
shown above. This new book, just published, is presented ten years later as
a “revised and expanded” version of the earlier book, and while it
definitely is that, this bare description greatly understates the degree to
which this new book now covers virtually every aspect of the Pope Pius XII
question, and thus has been transformed into what must now be considered the
definitive book on the subject. If you have this book, you have everything
you might ever need to defend the record and reputation of the World War II
head of the Catholic Church.
