The revised text, although still including the point of view of his critics, now adds that according to his supporters the Holy Father\u2019s neutrality \u201cprevented harsher measures against the Vatican and the Church\u2019s institutions throughout Europe, thus enabling a considerable number of secret rescue activities to take place at different levels in the Church.\u201d The Holy See\u2019s apostolic nuncio to Israel, Mgr Antonio Franco, described the change as a \u201cpositive evolution\u201d; the text had moved from condemnation to \u201can evaluation.\u201d The Israeli newspaper, Haaretz, added that the new caption also states, \u201cUntil all relevant material is available to scholars, this topic will remain open to further inquiry.\u201d<\/p>\n

Significantly, the negative phrase \u201cdid not intervene\u201d has also been changed to \u201cdid not publicly protest\u201d. The Church has always maintained there was a good reason for this: if the Pope had been more outspoken and critical of the Nazis it would have led to more savage reprisals against the Jews \u2013 as happened when the Dutch bishops made their own protest. According to his defenders (who have always included a number of Jewish scholars and historians, as well as influential public figures such as the late Israeli prime minister, Golda Meir) Pius XII had to endure a \u201cmartyrdom of silence\u201d while doing everything in his power behind the scenes to save thousands of Jewish lives in Europe through the work of papal nuncios and religious orders.<\/p>\n

Although the Vatican archives of the Pius XII era are not due to be opened to outside historians until 2014, Fr Federico Lombardi SJ, the director of the Vatican press office, has made it clear that everything there is to know is already known. In other words, when further documentation comes to light it will simply provide more evidence of the Pope\u2019s rescue work, rather than discover any lurking skeletons. According to a spokeswoman for Yad Vashem, the revisions to the caption followed new research, in part based on opening up the archive of Pope Pius XI.<\/p>\n

What is noteworthy is Israel\u2019s willingness to re-examine old positions in the light of new findings and then to make tentative steps to setting the record straight towards a Pope who has been unjustly maligned. …<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
