Many thanks for posting my follow-up commentary (on the Church’s rescue efforts during WW II-and what it did and did not officially authorize) on your blog—

–People are now catching up to the available evidence, though a few still continue to cite the Raul Wallenberg Foundation’s testimony about Roncalli supposedly issuing false baptismal certificates—I like the Wallenberg Foundation a great deal, and often recommend it myself; but in this particular instance, they are simply citing the testimony of Ira Hirschmann’s book, Caution to the Winds, which, for reasons I explain in my post, is well-intentioned but unreliable, and contradicted by the Vatican’s own wartime archives.

One other note: In response to a query I received about the Vatican and the famous priest-rescuer Father Benoit, which was raised at Inside Catholic, on one of its threads (within which you cited my Public Discourse piece—many thanks), I replied, and my response can be read at the very end of this thread; here is the link (scroll all the way to the bottom):
