How many religious leaders have martyred themselves in the last 1,000 years??

And you keep pushing this point, the world was at war but you’ve decided the pope should have committed suicide over Croatia. Or whatever you decided he should have martyred himself over.

Did any other Christian or Jewish leaders martyr themselves?

It’s ok, now I know the pope’s sin was that he lived.

How many holocausts, where 10’s of millions of people were systematically exterminated, have we had in the last 1000 years?

This is the whole point, this was a once in history event, which required a greater response than was given by the Catholic church, or any church for that matter.
