Pope anger over Mauthausen speech omitting Jews
In Mauthausen Austria Pope John Paul II condemned Nazism at the camp site where about 110000 died but did not name Jewish victims, angering Austria’s chief rabbi Chaim Eisenberg who called the omission unsatisfactory while noting the pope did reference other Catholic figures and leaders in his remarks. The pope also led Mass for about 80000 in Trausdorf near the Hungarian border, and urged Austrian Jewish leaders to accept support for a Palestinian homeland.
