‘Hitler’s Pope’ charge rejected

HOW utterly naive is TP O’Mahony in joining writers (some of them vehemently anti-Catholic) in attacking Pope Pius XII for not condemning the Nazis for their oppression of the Jewish people (Irish Examiner, September 12).

In response to a Papal condemnation, Hitler would immediately deny vehemently that such persecution occurred.

His powerful propaganda minister, Joseph Goebbels, would show films and pictures of ‘happy Jewish people’ working for the German war effort.
