Im sure all of you recall a while back when Rutgers University School of Law in partnership with Cornell brought to everyones attention rare OSS documents that detailed a nazi plan for the persecution of Christian Churches. They have the documents in PDF form and I dont know about you all, but I had a lot of difficulty accessing it.
So here the clincher - I have my own independent site with all of the documents. Each individual document in image form (jpg). It makes it easier to view and read through the documents.

Hitler turned on a lot of his former allies.

But all my Jewish Freeper friends told me the Catholic Church was really the catalyst for the Holocaust. Adolf was just the puppet. Shocked I tell you!

Thanks for the post.
"The Nuremburg Project" hasn't been getting as much publicity as it deserves.

I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss their claims - at the very least the silence was deafening.

I should have added that includes * ALL " Christian Churches - Protestant as well as Catholic.
The difficulty was that the Pope was Vatican counsel in Berlin while Adolf was rising to power.
Above all others it is he who should have known and had the loudest voice about the coming storm.

When Hitler's army conquered a new area, the first people killed were the evangelical Christians. A great book on this subject is;

I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss their claims - at the very least the silence was deafening. There was no "silence". The Nazis were crystal clear on the Pope's position. Even the New York Times was clear, in 1942, on the Pope's position. (Later on, the fog set in.)
The difficulty was that the Pope was Vatican counsel in Berlin while Adolf was rising to power.
What is your point? Why was that a "difficulty"? In fact, Pacelli became Vatican Secretary of State in 1930, when Hitler was still just the leader of a fringe political party with 12 seats in the Reichstag. It was in the elections of September, 1930 -- after the Depression began to be felt -- that the Nazis became a major player.
Here is a good essay on Pius XII and the Nazis.
