I disagree strongly with Buchanan on Israel and many other things.

But this disgusting slander of the saintly Pius XII has got to stop.

He did more to fight the Holocaust than any other European leader except maybe Churchill.

Pius XII has been used as a scapegoat to ridicule pre-Vatican II Catholicism. His worst critics are not Jews, rather, they are the liberal so-called "Catholics" who live as if the Church began in 1965, and everything before that was instantly anathematized. Since Pius XII was the face of the Church immediately before the Council, he must be maligned, but they have to use convenient political arguments to discredit him to the masses.
