Re: Mac Rory's alleged "opposition to National Socialism" (since deleted)

[edit]

There is no objective source anywhere online that can cite a single word by Mac Rory against Nazism. The source cited (with domain ".ie") is inaccessible and an exhaustive Google search comes up with nothing. More German clerics/religious condemned National Socialism, at considerable risk, than their Irish counterparts, who consider[ed] Northern Ireland to be the Irish equivalent of Auschwitz.

Neither:

  • a) "Letter from Joseph P. Walshe to David Gray (Dublin) (Draft), DUBLIN,September 1941" (excerpt: "With regard to your remarks about suppression of portion of episcopal pastorals, the public utterances of Cardinal Hinsley and anti-Hitler pronouncements in the ‘Osservatore Romano’, and the contrast which you see between this treatment and that accorded to Cardinal MacRory’s pastoral, you should remember that Cardinal MacRory’s pastoral referred to the ever present injustice of British rule in the Six Counties and had nothing to do with the issue of neutrality.")
  • b) Joseph Walshe: Irish Foreign Policy, 1922-1946 (By Aengus Nolan), which are the closest sources I could come to anything material to this topic contain any mention of any opposition to National Socialism (Nazism) by Mac Rory, NADA. This maudlin revisionism has no place on Wikipedia. Quis separabit? 00:16, 8 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
