Hi,
If John Paul II was such a humanist, why did he support the ultra-montane
Ustache fascists in Croatia in the 1990s?

Why did John Paul II actively repress the movements of Catholic Priests
fighting on the side of the poor in Central America in the 1980s? John
Paul II's Vatican behaved cynically and in a fierecely reactionary manner
after Archbishop Romero was murdered by right-wing death squads in El
Salvador, for example.
Weren't these events in some sense responsible for the rollback of
socialist progress?
PS Now that all the Catholic priests are back on board, let's hope Charles
and Camilla's wedding today goes off without a hitch.
GRANMA INTERNATIONAL
Havana. April 7, 2005
To make the Pope responsible for the fall of socialism is to make too
simple an analysis of history
Fidel reiterates similarities between the humanist ideas
of the Pope and those defended by the Cuban Revolution

WE fervently want the Pope's example to endure, confirmed
President Fidel Castro during his special address
