The Great Soprendo
Striker
Well, just one small example:Like what?
On my way into work this morning, I was reading a book about people in Tuscany who helped rescue Jews in 1943-44 when the SS and local fascists were doing their best to round them up and send them to their death. A huge proportion of the people who hid Jews, organised false papers for them, arranged transport to safe havens etc etc at great risk to their own lives, were members of the clergy (priests, nuns, even the cardinal of Florence, who organised an elaborate rescue network saving hundreds of lives).
