The Vatican radio station, in a broadcast today in the German language, made public the full text of the recent protest by the German Catholic Bishops in Slovakia against the persecution of Jews.
“No one has the right to harm Jews merely because they are Jews,” the broadcast said, quoting the Bishops. “Judgements should not be influenced by language, race or nationality. The whole community should not be blamed for the faults of several members of that community.”
