Benedict XVI: Pope Pius XII saved more Jews than anyone in WWII
None
Pope Pius XII was "one of the great righteous men who saved more Jews than anyone," said Pope Benedict XVI in a book of interviews titled "Light of the World", released Tuesday. "He did everything he could to save people."
"Naturally, we can always ask: 'Why did he not protest more forcefully?' I think he saw what the consequences might have been a public outcry," the pontiff wrote. (AFP)
