Description
Asks how should Vatican policies during World War II be understood? Specifically, could Pope Pius XII have curbed the Holocaust by vigorously condemning the Nazi killing of Jews? Was Pius XII really 'Hitler's Pope', or has he unfairly become a scapegoat when he is really deserving of canonization as a Roman Catholic saint instead?
