(IsraelNN.com) Britain and the United States possessed detailed knowledge of Hitler's plans to exterminate Jews and did nothing to stop it, accused the Vatican's official newspaper on Monday. According to a story from South Asia's ANI news, the L'Osservatore Romano article claims that authorities in both countries ignored, downplayed and even suppressed intelligence reports about Nazi extermination plans, and chose not to bomb concentration camps and the railway stations that supplied them.
The report quoted from the diary of Henry Morgenthau Jr., the wartime U.S. secretary of the treasury, who described the U.K.'s alleged indifference as "a Satanic combination of British chill and diplomatic double talk, cold and correct and adding up to a sentence of death". As early as August 1942, the U.S. government "knew that the Nazis were planning to exterminate all the Jews of Europe" he writes in the diary, citing a telegram dated Aug 24, 1942 that was passed on to the U.S. State Department which relayed a report of Hitler's plan to kill between 3.5 million and four million Jews possibly using cyanide poison. A copy of the telegram was reproduced in the L'Osservatore report.

Excellent split there. It is only temporary though. Something the Vatican wants and the others so far refuse to deliver so the shot across the bows was fired in warning to the "others" by the Vatican.
