NEWEST PRESS RELEASE :
Vatican Bank
Holocaust Litigation
(See all press releases below)
|
With the 50th Anniversary of the
death of Pius XII, the
Vatican is again
pushing for his sainthood. While Pius can be legitimately criticized for his
tepid condemnations of the Nazi Holocaust there is no question he was complicit
in the deaths of at least 500,000 Orthodox Christian Serbs, Jews and Roma
murdered in Croatia, Bosnia, and Krajina during the Second World War by the Axis
allied Croatian regime. -
