Even in 1939, when the Pope condemned Nazism, I doubt he called for specific military action. Those who say he failed to oppose Nazism are fools, slanderers and liars; his condemnation was such that anyone who read it would have understood that the world needed to focus its entire energy on ending both Nazism and Stalinism as ... and I quote ... “the Twin Terrors of Totalitarianism.” But I cannot recall him saying, “Bomb Nurenberg” or so; if my recollection serves me correctly (I saw this in 1999), his words left it up to the imagination of the world’s great military powers how to oppose Hitler, but appeasement was not one of the options.
