I recommend reading this article in its’ entirety since it builds as it goes, and I would also recommend researching the other sources mentioned in this article.
Pope Pius was an enemy to Nazi Germany and was responsible for saving the lives of around 800,000 Jews.
He was hated by the Nazi’s, and they attempted to kidnap him. Pope Pius even attempted an at distance exorcism because he saw such evil in Hitler. He was loved by Jewish leaders including Golda Meier and the other founders of the State of Israel.
But Pope Pius also spoke vociferously against communism. And when Stalin couldn’t silence him directly, he instituted a long term Cold War propaganda attack against him and his reputation after his passing on. One such pawn in this disinformation campaign recently died which spawned the article.
How many times have supposedly well educated people said, “Well, the Church was silent during Hitler’s reign”?
Well, the actual historical answer is that this just was not the case.
For those interested in the history, I offer this article and the leads it provides thereafter if you desire.
