This page is all about the many prominent Catholic leaders of the Third Reich whose standing as "good Catholics" their church's leaders never publicly questioned until these Nazi Catholics were no longer in a position to do much harm

Note 1 on the above : After eliminating the relatively few Jews there, the leaders of Roman Catholic Croatia targeted all the other non-Catholics and they were even more vicious than the Nazis. See http://CatholicArrogance.Org/CroatianHolocaust.html. Note 2 on the above : Although Mussolini was an atheist, and not technically a Roman Catholic, he could only govern in the heart of the Roman Catholic Church with the blessing of that church.         Many other Roman Catholic dictators in areas other than Europe, could have been added to the list such as Ngo Diem in Vietnam, Ferdinand Marcos in the Philippines, the Duvaliers in Haiti, and the long string of Catholic dictators in the many countries of Latin (i.e. Roman Catholic) America. The list above, however, is only about Catholics who headed the Nazi "axis" nations during the World War II era.

The Roman Catholics in Nazi Germany's Leadership         Many of Nazi Germany's leadership were, like Adolf Hitler, Roman Catholics, people like Heinrich Himmler, Josef Goebbels, Reinhard Heydrich, and Rudolf Hoess, (not to be confused with Hitler's Deputy Führer and secretary, Rudolf Hess).   Hermann Goering, on the other hand, had mixed Catholic-Protestant parentage, while Rudolf Hess, Martin Bormann, Albert Speer, and Adolf Eichmann had Protestant backgrounds.  Not one of the top Nazi leaders was raised in a liberal or atheistic family." [ from http://www.secularhumanism.org/library/fi/paul_23_4.html ]         To be sure, the Roman Catholic Church wants to distance itself from all of these monsters now, but it made no attempt to do so at the time, when it could have caused their millions of Catholic subjects to think twice about following these clearly immoral leaders. But the sight of church leaders condemning the immorality of Catholic political leaders such as those below would have caused those powerful leaders to be very angry with the church. And the pope himself chose not to put German Catholics on the spot. As Lewy reported, "When Dr, Edoardo Senatro, the correspondent of L'Osservatore Romano in Berlin, asked Pius XII whether he would not protest the extermination of the Jews, the Pope is reported to have answered, "Dear friend, do not forget that millions of Catholics serve in the German armies. Shall I bring them into conflicts of conscience?" The Pope knew that the German Catholics were not prepared to suffer martyrdom for their Church; still less were they willing to incur the wrath of their Nazi rulers for the sake of the Jews whom their own bishops for years, had castigated as a harmful influence in German life." ... The failure of the Pope was a measure of the Church's failure to convert her gospel of brotherly love and human dignity into living reality." (The Catholic Church and Nazi Germany, p 304 ) Adolf Hitler: There is so much to be said about the Fuëhrer's Catholicism that we devote an entire web page to it at CatholicArrogance.Org/Catholic/Hitlersfaith.html Heinrich Himmler ( a Catholic ) was born October 7, 1900, as the son of a secondary school instructor and strict Roman Catholic. . .         "A man often seen as the very personification of evil.  Heinrich Himmler was not only head of Hitler's SS police, but was also in charge of the death camps in the East.  The account of Himmler's life and his impact on the rise and fall of the Nazi state make a gripping and horrifying story.  But more than this, it is a profound moral and intellectual inquiry into the nature of evil in the human character.         Although Adolf Hitler held the ultimate responsibility for the killing of six million Jews, it was Heinrich Himmler who essentially laid the detailed plans for the Holocaust. [ from http://www.auschwitz.dk/Himmler.htm ] "The son of a bookkeeper, Josef Goebbels was brought up in a devoutly Catholic home.  His parents hoped he would be a priest, but he saw his future as a writer and instead studied philosophy and literature, earning a Ph.D. in drama in 1921.  Goebbels' literary aspirations were never realized, however.  He received endless rejections from newspapers and publishing houses and ultimately, his pompous overwrought style made him more suited to the life of political rhetoric.     Joseph Goebbels (seated) with his wife Magda, whose Jewish father died at the Buchenwald slave labor camp, and the six young children whom they killed before killing themselves.  The eldest son in uniform, by Magda's previous marriage, was in the Luftwaffe, and survived the war.  Goebbels was so close to fellow Catholic Hitler that Adolf served as first witness at Goebbels' Catholic marriage.         "He was much disliked because of his malice and ill will, and though a mesmerizing orator, he lacked charisma.  Nevertheless, he was a man of tremendous enthusiasm with an endless supply of ideas, and as a master of mass psychology, he became indispensable to Adolf Hitler."         In 1928 Hitler made Goebbels his propaganda chief.  After the Nazis came to power in 1933, Goebbels began to clamp down on all forms of artistic expression, banishing Jewish writers, journalists and artists from Germany's cultural life.  He took control of the news media, making sure that it presented Germany's domestic and foreign policy aims as in terms of Nazi ideology.  He played probably the most important role in creating an atmosphere in Germany that made it possible for the Nazis to commit terrible atrocities against Jews, homosexuals and other minorities.  In some instances, he authorized the violence himself.  On November 9, 1938, after a German diplomat had been killed by a Jewish teenager in Paris, Goebbels issued instructions for "spontaneous demonstrations" to be executed against the Jews during the night.  The subsequent pogrom, often referred to as "Kristallnacht," led to the deaths of 91 Jews, the incarceration in concentration camps of 30,000 others and the destruction of about 7,000 Jewish businesses and more than 900 synagogues." [ from http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/amex/ holocaust/peopleevents/pandeAMEX98.html ]         "By exploiting mob emotions and by employing all modern methods of propaganda he helped Hitler into power.  In 1928, Goebbels was elected to the Reichstag, and when Hitler seized power in 1933 he made Goebbels propaganda minister.  This position gave him complete control over radio, press, cinema, and theater; later he also regimented all German culture.  Goebbels placed his undeniable intelligence and his brilliant insight into mass psychology entirely at the service of his party.  His most virulent propaganda was against the Jews.  As a hypnotic orator he was second only to Hitler, and in his staging of mass meetings and parades he was unsurpassed.  Utterly cynical, he seems to have believed only in the self-justification of power.  He remained loyal to Hitler until the end; in Apr., 1945, he killed his family and himself while Berlin was falling to Soviet troops."   [ from http://www.answers.com/topic/joseph-goebbels ] "Reinhard Heydrich was one of Hitler's most ruthless Nazis and second in importance only to Heinrich Himmler in the Nazi SS organization and the principle planner of the Final Solution.  There was even talk of his one day succeeding Adolf Hitler."  Unlike Hitler, who survived several assassination attempts, Heydrich was assassinated by partisans before he could execute his plans to kill millions of innocent Jews. [ from http://www.shoah.dk/Henchmen/jpg_rheydrich.htm ]   The Devil's Disciples by Anthony Read is a book published in several languages focusing on Hitler's inner circle of Nazi leadership : Göring, Goebbels, and Himmler, along with their nearest rivals, Bormann, Speer, and Ribbentrop—. Franz Von Papen had headed the powerful Catholic "Center Party" and been a close friend of Pope Pius XII from the time that he had been the Papal Nuncio to Germany.  Were it not for Papen, President Von Hindenburg might never have been persuaded to make Adolf Hitler Chancellor of Germany. He beame Hitler's first Vice-Chancellor and the Catholic statesman who negotiated the infamous Cordordat of 1933 on behalf of the Nazi government.  After the war, the allies spared his life, eventually freed him and he returned to the good graces of the Catholic Church. Fritz Thyssen, the most important single financial and industrial supporter of Adolf Hitler from 1924 through 1939.  He gave up all his properties in Germany in 1939 when his conscience moved him to renounce Hitler and he fled the country. He wrote an article in the Swiss Arbeiterzeitung entitled, "Pius XII, As Nuncio, Brought Hitler to Power." Yet his American banking partners, George Herbert Walker and Prescott Bush, who had been helping to finance Hitler's rise to power since 1924 continued to do so for another three years, until the U.S. government closed them down for "supporting the enemy" in 1942. (See www.JesusNoRepublican.Org/about/bushfamily.html ) Klaus Barbie, called the "Butcher of Lyon" because of his role as chief of the Nazi Gestapo in Lyon, France during the worst period of the Holocaust, 1942-1944, where he took part personally in torturing French resistance fighters. As a young man he was so pious that he planned to study theology. During his trial he was still pious enough to proclaim ""When I stand before the throne of God I shall be judged innocent". Julius Streicher was the Rush Limbaugh of Nazi Germany, whose gross anti-semitic mass-produced Der Stürmer influenced the German masses almost as much as his good friends Hitler and Goebbels.  Although he abandonned the faith as an adult, he was the product of a very devout Bavarian Catholic family,  See http://www.holocaust-history.org/short-essays/julius-streicher.shtml .  He was the ninth child of a Roman Catholic primary school teacher, and became a school teacher himself in Nuremberg. Rudolf Hoess was one of history's greatest mass murderers, the architect and SS Commandant of the largest killing center ever created, the death camp Auschwitz, whose name has come to symbolize humanity's ultimate descent into evil.  Responsible for exterminating 2,5 million people in World War II, he was a mild-mannered, happily married Catholic who enjoyed normal family life with his five children despite his view of the crematoria chimney stacks from his bedroom window.         Rudolf Hoess would testify during the War Crimes Trials after WW2 that at peak efficiency Auschwitz had the capacity to 'get rid of ten thousand people in 24 hours,'         Pope Pius XII was happy to wield his powerful excommunication tool shortly after World War II to disuade Italian Catholics from even joining the Communist Party, which was very popular at the time. Yet, throughout the 12 year Nazi reign of terror, not one of the multitude of Nazi monsters who were Roman Catholic was ever excommunicated ! What's more, the ban on membership in the Nazi Party which the Catholic Church had imposed prior to Hitler's successful power-grab in 1933, was actually lifted that year, at the very time that the Nazis gained the ability to actually act on what had only been terrible ideas prior to that time.     Martin Adolf Bormann, Jr. (born 1930) was the first of Martin Borman's ten children.  "As a child during World War II, he saw furniture in the house of Heinrich Himmler made from human skin and bones. His mother, realising that a lampshade given to her by Himmler must also be made from human skin, went home and burned it.  He says that the memory of this has haunted him throughout his life.    After the war, he became a Roman Catholic and was ordained as a priest.  He was severely injured in 1969 and was nursed back to health by a nun.  In 1971, they renounced their vows of celibacy and married.  Mr Bormann has been a tireless campaigner to preserve the memory of the Holocaust and oppose the activities of Holocaust deniers." [ from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Adolf_Bormann ]     Likewise, Herman Goering (who was of Catholic & Protestant background) had a younger brother who was very different from his notorious sibling. Albert played the part of a small scale Oskar Schindler, by saving a number of Jews, www.auschwitz.dk/Albert.htm. Martin Bormann became very anti-Christian latter in life, but "Bormann first became acquainted with Hitler at his 1929 wedding to Gerda Buch.  Her father was a chairman of the Nazi Party Court, and a powerful figure in Nazi circles, so Hitler served as a witness to the marriage.  And a year later Martin and Gerda’s first son was christened Adolf, after his Godfather, Adolf Hitler." (McGovern 20-21).  This would indicate that Bormann was either married and had his first son christened in Hitler's Catholic Church, or in Bormann's Protestant church.

Quotes from Hitler's fellow Christian Henchmen and Christain Nazi Sympathizers :        In a country where 99% of the population considered themselves "Christians", it should come as no surprise that most of Hitler's henchmen, along with the vast majority of German citizens, were Christians. Except for a very few who rejected Christianity (like Bormann and Rosenberg), the rest used their influence (whether through belief or political action) to support both Catholicism and Protestantism. Hermann Göring (Protestant)         "God gave the savior to the German people. We have faith, deep and unshakeable faith, that he [Hitler] was sent to us by God to save Germany."" - (Hitler's Elite, Shocking Profiles of the Reich's Most Notorious Henchmen," Berkley Books, 1990)         "How shall I give expression, O my Fuhrer, to what is in our hearts? How shall I find words to express your deeds? Has there ever been a mortal as beloved as you, my Fuhrer? Was there ever belief as strong as the belief in your mission. You were sent us by God for Germany!" - (Reden und Aufsatze, Munich, 1938)         "Although he himself [Hitler] was a Catholic, he wished the Protestant Church to have a stronger position in Germany, since Germany was two-thirds Protestant." - (Trial of The Major War Criminals Before the International Military Tribunal, Nuremberg, 1945, Vol.9)         "The Führer wanted to achieve the unification of the Protestant Evangelical Churches by appointing a Reich Bishop, so that there would be a high Protestant church dignitary as well as a high Catholic church dignitary." - (Trial of The Major War Criminals Before the International Military Tribunal, Nuremberg, 1945, Vol.9)         "With the Catholic Church the Führer ordered a concordat to be concluded by Herr Von Papen. Shortly before that agreement was concluded by Herr Von Papen I visited the Pope myself. I had numerous connections with the higher Catholic clergy because of my Catholic mother, and thus-- I am myself a Protestant-- I had a view of both camps." - (Trial of The Major War Criminals Before the International Military Tribunal, Nuremberg, 1945, Vol.9)         "I myself am not what you might call a churchgoer, but I have gone now and then, and have always considered I belonged to the Church and have always had those functions over which the Church presides-- marriage, christening, burial, et cetera-- carried out in my house by the Church." - (Trial of The Major War Criminals Before the International Military Tribunal, Nuremberg, 1945, Vol.9) Joseph Goebbels (Catholic )         "The pious Catholic parents of Joseph Goebbels raised him and his two brothers in that faith. He spoke of Hitler as "either Christ or St. John." "Hitler, I love you!" he wrote in his diary.         "A Jew is for me an object of disgust. I feel like vomiting when I see one. Christ could not possibly have been a Jew. It is not necessary to prove that scientifically-- it is a fact." - , in his attempt to win the eternal gratitude of Hitler, (Hitler's Elite, Shocking Profiles of the Reich's Most Notorious Henchmen," Berkley Books, 1990)         "We have a feeling that Germany has been transformed into a great house of God, including all classes, professions and creeds, where the Fuhrer as our mediator stood before the throne of the Almighty." - , in a broadcast, 19 April 1936 Heinrich Himmler (Catholic )         "I swear before God this holy oath, that I shall give absolute confidence to the Fuehrer of the German Reich and people." - , reminding his hearers about the oath taken by all SS men as well as by the military forces (Hitler's Elite, Shocking Profiles of the Reich's Most Notorious Henchmen," Berkley Books, 1990)         "You Einsatztruppen (task forces) are called upon to fulfill a repulsive duty. But you are soldiers who have to carry out every order unconditionally. You have a responsibility before God and Hitler for everything that is happening. I myself hate this bloody business and I have been moved to the depths of my soul. But I am obeying the highest law by doing my duty. Man must defend himself against bedbugs and rats-- against vermin." - , in a speech to the SS guards, (Hitler's Elite, Shocking Profiles of the Reich's Most Notorious Henchmen," Berkley Books, 1990) (The mass murderer Himmler got brought up as a devout Catholic, like young Hitler, and was careful to attend mass regularly.) Rudolf Hess (a Protestant)         "No matter what human beings do I shall some day stand before the judgement seat of the Eternal. I shall answer to Him, and I know he will judge me innocent." - , in a statement to the Nuremberg Tribunal, (Hitler's Elite, Shocking Profiles of the Reich's Most Notorious Henchmen," Berkley Books, 1990)         " We believe that the Fuhrer is fulfilling a divine mission to German destiny! This belief is beyond challenge." - , speech, 20 June 1934 (Reden, Munich. 1938, p. 25)         "With all our powers we will endeavour to be worthy of the Fuhrer thou, O Lord, has sent us!" - , address to political leaders, Munich , 21 April 1938 (Rolf Tell, Sound and Fuhrer)         "You take an oath to a man whom you know follows the laws of providence, which he obeys independently of the influence of earthly powers, who leads the German people rightly, and who will guide Germany's fate. Through your oath you bind yourselves to a man who--that is our faith--was sent to us by higher powers. Do not seek Adolf Hitler with your mind. You will find him through he strength of your hearts!" - , in his speech, "The Oath to Adolf Hitler," 1934 Rudolf Hoess (Catholic)         "In his Nuremberg cell, told psychologist G.M. Gilbert how he got brought up in a rigorous Catholic tradition:         "My father was really a bigot. He was very strict and fanatical. I learned that my father took a religious oath at the time of the birth of my younger sister, dedicating me to God and the priesthood, and after that leading a Joseph married life [celibacy]. He directed my entire youthful education toward the goal of making me a priest. I had to pray and go to church endlessly, do penance over the slightest misdeed-- praying as punishment for any little unkindness to my sister, or something like that. - (Hitler's Elite, Shocking Profiles of the Reich's Most Notorious Henchmen," Berkley Books, 1990)         "When asked if his father ever beat him, Hoess replied that he was only punished by prayer. The thing that made me so stubborn and probably made me later on cut off from people was his way of making me feel that I had wronged him personally, and that, since I was spiritually a minor, he was responsible to God for my sins. - (Hitler's Elite, Shocking Profiles of the Reich's Most Notorious Henchmen," Berkley Books, 1990) Robert Ley         "Dr. Robert Ley held a number of positions in Hitler's Germany. He was Reichorganisationsleiter (Reich Organization Leader), responsible among other things for much of internal party education. He was also head of the German Labor Front (DAF), the Nazi "union".         " Catastrophe was only narrowly averted. It was all due to the faith of one man! Yes, you who called us godless, we found our faith in Adolf Hitler, and through him found God once again. That is the greatness of our day, that is our good fortune! -, in his speech, "Fate-- I believe!"         "Understanding sometimes is not enough to explain something. Only faith is sufficient. The Führer in Nuremberg said: "Woe to him who does not believe!" He who does not believe has no soul. He is empty. He has no ideals. He has nothing to live for. He has no sunshine, no light, no joy in life. He is a poor, poor man. What is wealth? What are possessions? What does it all mean? Problems come despite them, only faith is left. Woe to him who does not believe! -, in his speech, "Fate-- I believe!"         "Our god is the wonderful law of creation, whose amazing unity of all things shows itself if wonderful flowers, in growing trees, in new born children, in the secrets of a mother, in the growth of our people, in work and accomplishment and creation, in life itself. It is the joy we have in everything. How beautiful everything is. Do you feel the same way? I am so happy to be alive. -, in his speech, "The Jews or Us...," 1939 Julius Streicher (Catholic )         ""After Hitler's release from prison in December 1924, Streicher hailed Hitler's return to politics as a "gift of God," a judgement the Fuehrer never forgot. Streicher held an enthusiam about allegations that the Jews murdered non-Jews in order to obtain blood for the feast of Passover. He charged that Jews hated Christianity and mankind in general. Streicher went to grotesque lengths in his attacks on Jews claiming the discovery that "Christ was not a Jew but an Aryan."         "If the danger of the reproduction of that curse of God in the Jewish blood is finally to come to an end, then there is only one way-- the extermination of that people whose father is the devil... " - paraphrasing John 8:44 as his justification for extermination (Trial of The Major War Criminals Before the International Military Tribunal, Nuremberg, 1945, Vol. 12)         "Only the Jews, he shouted, had remained victorious after the dreadful days of World War I. These were the people, he charged, of whom Christ said, "Its father is the devil." " - [See John 8:44, for Christ's accusation of father the devil], (Hitler's Elite, Shocking Profiles of the Reich's Most Notorious Henchmen," Berkley Books, 1990)         "Germans must fight Jews, that organized body of world criminals against whom Christ, the greatest anti-Semite of all time, had fought. " - (Hitler's Elite, Shocking Profiles of the Reich's Most Notorious Henchmen," Berkley Books, 1990)         During the Nuremberg trials, Streicher was asked about his participation in the Nuremberg Race laws of 1935. He responded:         "Yes, I believe I had a part in it insofar as for years I have written that any further mixture of German blood with Jewish blood must be avoided. I have written such articles again and again; and in my articles I have repeatedly emphasized the fact that the Jews should serve as an example to every race, for they created the racial law for themselves-- the law of Moses, which says, "If you come into a foreign land you shall not take unto yourself foreign women." And that, Gentlemen, is of tremendous importance in judging the Nuremberg Laws.. These laws of the Jews were taken as a model for these laws. When after centuries, the Jewish lawgiver Ezra demonstrated that notwithstanding many Jews had married non-Jewish women, these marriages were dissolved. That was the beginning of Jewry which, because it introduced these racial laws, has survived throughout the centuries, while all other races and civilizations have perished." - , (Trial of The Major War Criminals Before the International Military Tribunal, Nuremberg, 1945, Vol. 12)         When asked if there were any other anti-Semitic publications, other than Der Stürmer, published in Germany, Streicher replied:         "Anti-Semitic publications have existed in Germany for centuries. A book I had, written by Dr. Martin Luther, was, for instance, confiscated. Dr. Martin Luther would very probably sit in my place in the defendants' dock today, if this book had been taken into consideration by the Prosecution. In this book The Jews and Their Lies, Dr. Martin Luther writes that the Jews are a serpent's brood and one should burn down their synagogues and destroy them..." - , (Trial of The Major War Criminals Before the International Military Tribunal, Nuremberg, 1945, Vol. 12)         "Now it goes to God!" -, his last words before his hanging, as he mounted the gallows platform to his death, on Purim Fest, 1946. [Purim describes a Jewish holiday, celebrated in the spring to commemorate the hanging of Haman, biblical oppressor of the Jews]. (Hitler's Elite, Shocking Profiles of the Reich's Most Notorious Henchmen," Berkley Books, 1990) Joachim Ribbentrop         "May God save Germany!" - Joachim Ribbentrop, his last words before his hanging, (Hitler's Elite, Shocking Profiles of the Reich's Most Notorious Henchmen," Berkley Books, 1990) [ from http://jews-for-allah.org/messianic-jews/christianhistorywithjews/henchmen.htm ]

Contrary to the apologists for the Catholic Church who claim that its villainy is "Old News", i.e. a thing of the distant past "dark ages", read CatholicArrogance.Org / murderedpope/, the true but largely untold story of the 1978 & 9 massacre of Popes, Cardinals and other important Liberal Catholic leaders in Rome and the Vatican, which is what enabled the ultra-Conservative wing of the Roman Catholic Church to replace the ultra-Liberal John Paul the First, after he had been pope for only 33 days, first with the ultra-Conservative John Paul the Second, and now with the ultra-Conservative (and one time Nazi soldier) Benedict XVI.  (I've received an email objecting to my use of "ultra" in the descripbtion of these popes because they haven't been as conservative as this writer would have liked!)         Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg, the officer who came closer than anyone to removing Hitler with a suitcase bomb was a devout Roman Catholic. God bless him, that was a truly heroic way of giving his life for his country.

In his book, "The Myth of Hitler's Pope"         One of the main thrusts of Ultra-Conservative Rabbi David Dalin is an attempt to shift blame for the Nazi Holocaust from the Catholic Pope in Rome to the Muslim Mufti in Palestine.  Alhough the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Amin el-Husseini, may well have been a more willing collaborator of Hitler's than was the Pope - and therefore more culpable morally -, how many Muslim followers was the Mufti able to persuade to do Hitler's bidding?  How many Jews were ratted out by Muslim neighbors, gathered up by Muslim police, guarded, beaten, killed and incinerated by Muslim, as opposed to Catholics or Lutherans who were recruited to fulfill all of those roles?         I don't know how many Muslims there were in Germany to be moved by the Mufti to embrace the Nazi agenda, but my reading tells me that some 98% of Germans were either Catholics or Protestants.  Allowing for the Jews, the Jehovah Witnesses, the atheists and agnostics, the "Bolsheviks" that Hitler claimed were under every bed, how many of the balance were Muslims? See our extensive refutation of Rabbi Dalin's book at CatholicArrogance.Org/Catholic/Hitlerspope.html         Here is an example of the moving music that was used to promote patriotic sentiment among the Nazi SS : waffenss/WWII.mp3.

The largely Roman Catholic leadership of the Nazi regime:         Many of the most vicious architects of the Nazi Holocaust were Roman Catholics i. e. Adolf Hitler, Heinrich Himmler, Josef Goebbels, Reinhard Heydrich, Rudolf Hoess, Julius Streicher, Fritz Thyssen, Klaus Barbie, and Franz Von Papen. None of the Catholics above or below was ever publicly excommunicated by "Holy Mother the Church", R. C. Engelbert Dollfuss was head of the Nazi state of Austria. R. C. Leon Degrelle was head of the Nazi state of Belgium. R. C. Emil Hacha was head of the Nazi state of Bohemia-Moravia. R. C. Ante Pavelic was head of the Nazi state of Croatia. R. C. Adolf Hitler was head of the Nazi state of Germany. R. C. Miklos Horthy was head of the Nazi state of Hungary. R. C. Konrad Henlein was head of the Nazi state of Sudetenland. R. C. Pierre Laval was head of the Nazi state of Vichy-France. R. C. Henry Petain was head of the Nazi state of Vichy-France. R. C. priest, Fr. Augustin Voloshin was head of the Nazi state of Ruthenia. R. C. priest, Fr. Josef Tiso was head of the Nazi state of Slovakia. R. C. priest, Fr. Andrei Hlinka was head of the Nazi state of Slovakia. R. C. priest, Fr. Anton Koroshec was head of the Nazi state of Yugoslavia.
