If the Likud (or, as it now calls itself, "Kadima") State founded by utterly unrepentant anti-British terrorists in 1967 ever acknowledged things like the truth about Pope Pius XII and the Holocaust, then it would have to attend to the concerns of figures such as the heads of the Greek, Latin, Melkite, Maronite, Syrian Catholic, Armenian, Anglican and Lutheran communities in the Holy Land, four of which eight are Catholics.
Indeed, it would have to acknowledge before the world the existence of those communities, so that it is not itself in any sense the frontline of the West (to which, be definition, a country without at least a culturally Christian majority does not belong) against Islam; indeed, let the reader understand that it has legally binding Sharia courts for those of its citizens who happen to be born into certain ethnic minorities, as it would also have to acknowledge before the world.
People might then start asking about other ancient Christian communities in the Middle East. Such as in, for example, Iraq.
And we can't have that...

ReplyDeleteReally?
ReplyDeleteGosh!
Every single position that Pius XII condemned, from Socialism to the Novus Ordo Missae, has been embraced with gusto by his successors. What many people forget about the whole Hitler's Pope nonsense is that Cornwell was originally hired by the Vatican itself to write it. (He'd already done a very good job on the death of Pope John Paul I.) In the Vatican's long-running campaign against Pius XII, Israeli Jews are just useful idiots.
