Klappentext zu „Pius XII, the Holocaust, and the Cold War “
Using newly available material from the U.S. National Archives, MichaelPhayer sheds new light on the actions of the Vatican and of the man whom some havemistakenly called "Hitler's Pope." As a new world war loomed, the Vatican believedit had to make a choice between communism and Nazism. Reluctantly, both Pius XII andhis predecessor chose the Nazis as the lesser of two evils. In the balance restedthe genocide of European Jews. As difficult as his wartime behavior is to accept, perhaps nothing demonstrates Pius's fear of communism more than his misguided andunethical attempt to thwart its growth in South America by abetting the escape ofNazis and Ustaši war criminals. The story of these Vatican "ratlines" addsanother facet to the complex picture of Pius XII and the Holocaust.
