Foremost among these statements were those regarding <a href="/wiki/Protestantism" title="Protestantism">Protestantism</a>, <a href="/wiki/Eastern_Orthodox_Church" title="Eastern Orthodox Church">Eastern Orthodoxy</a>, <a href="/wiki/Communism" title="Communism">communism</a> and <a href="/wiki/Freemasonry" title="Freemasonry">Freemasonry</a>.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001552-33">[29]</a> Stepinac criticized Protestantism, stating in a speech in 1938 that "the Catholic Church was the greatest civilising force in human history",<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001552-33">[29]</a> and railed against those that wanted to deprive the Catholic Church of any influence in public life. He referred to the <a href="/wiki/Reformation" title="Reformation">Reformation</a> as the "Deformation", and denounced <a href="/wiki/Martin_Luther" title="Martin Luther">Luther</a> as a false prophet who "demolished the principles of legal authority given by the Lord".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001553-58">[54]</a> He went on to blame Protestantism for the "hell in which human society suffers today",<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001553-58">[54]</a> and said that it had opened the road to "anarchy in all forms of human life."<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001553-58">[54]</a> Stepinac was also highly critical of Eastern Orthodoxy, seeing it as a serious danger to both the Catholic Church and Croats in general. The day after the <a href="/wiki/Yugoslav_coup_d%27%C3%A9tat" title="Yugoslav coup d'état">Yugoslav coup d'état</a> of 27 March 1941, carried out by British-supported Serb officers against a pact with the <a href="/wiki/Axis_powers" title="Axis powers">Axis powers</a>, he wrote in his diary:<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001553-58">[54]</a> <blockquote>All in all, Croats and Serbs are two worlds, the north and south poles, which will never become close except by a miracle of God. The <a href="/wiki/East%E2%80%93West_Schism" title="East–West Schism">schism</a> is the greatest curse of Europe, almost greater than Protestantism. In it there is no morality, no principle, no truth, no justice, no honesty.</blockquote> On the same day he issued an encyclical to his clergy, calling on them to pray for the young king, and that Croatia and Yugoslavia would be "spared the horrors of war". This was consistent with long-standing practice of the Catholic Church to show loyalty to the state and its leadership.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBiondich2007a41-57">[53]</a> Stepinac was well aware of the fact that an estimated 200,000 mostly Croatian Catholics had converted to the Serbian Orthodox Church in the interwar period. Actual census data contradict these claims, showing slightly greater percentage increase in the number of Catholic Croats compared to Orthodox Serbs in both Croatia and Bosnia.<a href="#cite_note-:5-59">[55]</a><a href="#cite_note-:6-60">[56]</a> He later claimed that Catholics were forced to convert to Orthodoxy during the period between the wars, but according to the historian <a href="/wiki/Jozo_Tomasevich" title="Jozo Tomasevich">Jozo Tomasevich</a>, the principal reason for their conversions was the pro-Serb public policy in the Serb-dominated Yugoslav state meant that it was advantageous both politically and for career prospects to be a member of the dominant religion.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001524-61">[57]</a> Tomasevich also notes that despite the fact that it was the national church of the dominant nation in the country, the Serb Orthodox Church felt threatened by Rome, particularly in Bosnia where the Catholic Church was extremely dynamic - in just one diocese, encompassing half of Bosnia's Catholics, it created 17 new parishes in the interwar period.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001527-62">[58]</a> Tomasevich cites <a href="/wiki/Vladko_Ma%C4%8Dek" title="Vladko Maček">Vladko Maček</a>, the leading prewar Croatian opposition leader, who when attacked by an Ustaše priest, for failing to state in his autobiography that the Catholic Church was persecuted in prewar Yugoslavia, Maček responded: "I could not write about the persecution of the Catholic Church because to the best of my knowledge such persecution did not exist."<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001524–525-63">[59]</a> Yet, Stepinac viewed the Yugoslav state as essentially anti-Catholic, particularly after the failure of the Yugoslav Parliament to ratify the already signed <a href="/wiki/Concordat" title="Concordat">Concordat</a> with the Vatican, which would have put the Catholic Church on a more equal footing with the Orthodox Church.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBiondich2007a40-56">[52]</a> He was also sensitive to the fact that the Concordat had been vetoed in the Yugoslav parliament partly due to pressure exerted by the Serbian church.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001525-64">[60]</a> The political scientist <a href="/wiki/Sabrina_P._Ramet" title="Sabrina P. Ramet">Sabrina P. Ramet</a> has detailed a range of anti-Catholic aspects to the interwar Yugoslav state, including that King Alexander tried to regulate the religious life of the state, entrenching discrimination against adherents of religious groups other than the Serbian Orthodox Church, and trying to erode their influence by allowing Orthodox proselytising in Catholic areas. Yet <a href="/wiki/Stella_Alexander" title="Stella Alexander">Stella Alexander</a> states that both the Catholic and Orthodox churches proselytized in interwar years, with the Catholic Church doing so more openly and aggressively than the Orthodox, especially in Bosnia Hercegovina which had a mixed Catholic, Muslim and Orthodox population.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEAlexander197881-65">[61]</a> The press was used to accuse the Catholic Church of being pro-fascist, despite the Yugoslav government itself having fascist traits at the time. The government promoted the <a href="/wiki/Old_Catholic_Church" title="Old Catholic Church">Old Catholic Church</a>, a rival organisation which has been established when some Catholics refused to accept the doctrine of <a href="/wiki/Papal_infallibility" title="Papal infallibility">papal infallibility</a> after the <a href="/wiki/First_Vatican_Council" title="First Vatican Council">First Vatican Council</a>. Despite the fact that in 1921, Catholics made up 39.3 per cent of the population, and Orthodox comprised 46.7 per cent, the Ministry of Faiths initially allocated fourteen times more money to the Orthodox Church than the Catholic Church. While this was adjusted, the funding proportions remained very inequitable. All of these strategies worked to undermine the role of the Catholic Church in Yugoslavia. The promotion of Serbdom was at the centre of government education policy, with school books promoting the importance of Serbian Orthodox monasteries in Dalmatia while ignoring Catholic ones. The official newspaper of the Serbian Orthodox Church stated that it wanted to achieve the "victory of Serbian Orthodoxy" throughout Yugoslavia. Under the constant pressure from the state and the Serbian Orthodox Church, between 1923 and 1931 the proportion of Catholics in Yugoslavia declined to 37.4 per cent and that of Serbian Orthodox believers increased to 48.7 per cent. The Croatian theologian Roko Rogošić claimed that 100,000 Roman Catholics had converted to Eastern Orthodoxy under pressure from the Yugoslav government and the Serbian Orthodox Church in 1935 alone.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTERamet200694–96-66">[62]</a> However, census data contradict these claims, showing a slightly greater percentage increase in the number of Catholic Croats compared to Orthodox Serbs in both Croatia<a href="#cite_note-:5-59">[55]</a> and Bosnia<a href="#cite_note-:6-60">[56]</a> in the interwar years. In 1930's Croatia the Catholic movement shifted rightward toward authoritarian, radical Catholicism.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEFroehlich2007387-67">[63]</a> Under Stepinac the hierarchical Crusaders Catholic youth organization grew to 40,000 members by 1938. Via uniformed parades and public rallies, and their slogan "God, Church, Homeland", they blended radical Catholicism and Croat nationalism, opposing liberalism, communism and Greater Serbianism<a href="#cite_note-68">[64]</a> They adopted a <a href="/wiki/Greater_Croatia" title="Greater Croatia">Greater Croatia</a> ideology, which envisaged Croatia expanding its borders to claim <a href="/wiki/Bosnia_and_Herzegovina" title="Bosnia and Herzegovina">Bosnia-Herzegovina</a> and <a href="/wiki/Ba%C4%8Dka" title="Bačka">Bačka</a>. In 1941 the Crusaders became enthusiastic supporters of the Ustaše regime.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEFroehlich2007393-69">[65]</a> Stepinac was the leader of the Croatian <a href="/wiki/Catholic_Action" title="Catholic Action">Catholic Action</a> in the Zagreb Archdiocese, whose newspaper, Hrvatska straža (Croatian Guard) proclaimed they are "always radical Croats and always radical Catholics", that "communism is the greatest evil" and "the fruit of the Jew Karl Marx".<a href="#cite_note-:3-70">[66]</a> In the Spanish Civil War they sided with Franco, Italy and Germany, because "they do not tolerate Jews or communists or insidious, dangerous Freemasonry." Katolički list, the official newspaper of Stepinac's archdiocese, proclaimed: "Jews are the main enemies of humanity. They are the true curse of the human race."<a href="#cite_note-:3-70">[66]</a> On the domestic front, Catholic newspapers especially attacked the politics of the <a href="/wiki/Croatian_Peasants_Party" class="mw-redirect" title="Croatian Peasants Party">Croatian Peasants Party</a> and <a href="/wiki/Vladko_Ma%C4%8Dek" title="Vladko Maček">Vladko Maček</a> in particular.<a href="#cite_note-:3-70">[66]</a> In the late 1930s a significant segment of the Croatian Catholic movement attacked the Croatian Peasant Party's commitment to democracy, pacifism and negotiation, and instead moved toward independence and authoritarianism, with prominent Catholic intellectuals joining the Ustaše before WWII.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEFroehlich2007388–391-71">[67]</a> After 1941, these Catholic activists - men like Ivo Guberina, Milivoj Magdić, Ivan Oršanić, Ivo Bogdan and others - became leading Ustaše propagandists and apologists, some served as officials in the Ustaše regime.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEFroehlich2007388–391-71">[67]</a> Thus a leader of the Crusaders, Ivan Oršanić, first led the State Secretariat for Propaganda in the NDH, then became the leader of the <a href="/wiki/Usta%C5%A1e_Youth" title="Ustaše Youth">Ustaše Youth</a>, reporting directly to <a href="/wiki/Ante_Paveli%C4%87" title="Ante Pavelić">Pavelić</a>.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEFroehlich2007393-69">[65]</a><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEYeomans2013251-72">[68]</a> In 1937 Archbishop Stepinac founded the Committee for Refugee Assistance in Zagreb, which extensively helped the Jews fleeing from Nazi Germany. Terezija Skringar, the secretary of that Committee, would be apprehended by Gestapo immediately after the arrival of Wehrmacht forces in Zagreb in April 1940, and spent 5 months in German detention. Stepinac preached against racism in several sermons, starting from 1938. "To consider oneself as some higher beings - superhuman and despise another, when it is known that all men are in themselves dust and ashes, and by the mercy of God, all the children of one Heavenly Father", he preached in 1938. Stepinac considered Nazis as "pagans", and always held a reserved attitude in any contact with German representatives. The Gestapo in Zagreb reported that Stepinac held a clear antipathy against Nazism, and made numerous acts to help persecuted Jews in the 1941–1945 period.<a href="#cite_note-73">[69]</a> In 1940, Stepinac told Prince Paul:<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTECornwell2008265-74">[70]</a> <blockquote>The most ideal thing would be for the Serbs to return to the faith of their fathers, that is, to bow the head before Christ's representative, the Holy Father. Then we could at last breathe in this part of Europe, for Byzantinism has played a frightful role in the history of this part of the world.</blockquote> Of all the threats he perceived to the Croatian people and the Catholic Church, Stepinac railed most against the dangers of communism. In August 1940, in response to the recent establishment of diplomatic relations between Yugoslavia and the <a href="/wiki/Soviet_Union" title="Soviet Union">Soviet Union</a>, Stepinac sermonised that there could be no co-operation between the Church and communists, stated that the Church was not afraid of communists, and that communists would make Croatia "a nation of killers and robbers, debauchees, and thieves".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001553-58">[54]</a> Stepinac was particularly obsessed with Freemasonry,<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBiondich2007a40-56">[52]</a> which was closely associated with support for the unification of Yugoslavia and opposed what it considered the Catholic Church's "authoritarianism and anti-liberal ideology."<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001554-75">[71]</a> In 1934 Stepinac wrote in his diary: "In Yugoslavia, today, Freemasonry rules. Unfortunately, in the heart of the Croatian nation also, in Zagreb, this hellish society has entrenched itself, a lair of immorality, corruption, and all kinds of dishonesty, the sworn enemy of the Catholic Church and therefore also of the Croatian nation. Without the knowledge and approval of the Freemasons, nobody can be appointed to any influential position. It is no joke to join battle with it, but it must be done in the interests of the church, the Croatian people, and even the state of Yugoslavia if it wants to continue to exist, because the violence that rules today is supported by Freemasonry."<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001553–554-76">[72]</a> Tomasevich notes that such vehement sentiments against Freemasonry were not unusual among conservative senior churchmen prior to the <a href="/wiki/Second_Vatican_Council" title="Second Vatican Council">Second Vatican Council</a>. Tomasevich further observes that despite papal <a href="/wiki/Encyclical" title="Encyclical">encyclicals</a> against both Italian fascist abuses against Catholic Youth organizations in 1931<a href="#cite_note-77">[73]</a> and German Nazism in 1937, Stepinac refrained from condemning or even mentioning Fascism or Nazism, pointing out that in 1938 the Catholic Church was supporting the Italian and German allies of Franco <a href="/wiki/Spanish_Civil_War" title="Spanish Civil War">Spanish Civil War</a>, and public criticism of their political ideologies would not have been helpful. Finally, Tomasevich stresses that the Vatican saw Germany as the most important opponent of communism.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001554-75">[71]</a> Nevertheless, Stepinac was a member of the Yugoslav Catholic Bishops' Conference that issued warnings against both Nazism and Communism after the 1937 papal encyclical against Nazis ideology.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBiondich2007a40-56">[52]</a> Stepinac feared both Nazism and communism, even as he disdained western parliamentary democracy. This can be seen from Stepinac's diary entry of 5 November 1940, when he wrote, <blockquote>If Germany wins [the war], there will be appalling terror and the destruction of little nations. If England wins, the masons, [and] Jews will remain in power ... If the USSR wins, then the devil will have authority over both the world and hell.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBiondich2007a40-56">[52]</a></blockquote> West describes Stepinac as a "puritanical zealot",<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEWest199560-78">[74]</a> who gathered together those opposing communism, <a href="/wiki/Liberalism" title="Liberalism">liberalism</a>, <a href="/wiki/Secular_education" title="Secular education">secular education</a>, <a href="/wiki/Divorce" title="Divorce">divorce</a> reform, <a href="/wiki/Profanity" title="Profanity">profanity</a>, <a href="/wiki/Sexual_intercourse" title="Sexual intercourse">sexual intercourse</a> outside of marriage, and <a href="/wiki/Birth_control" title="Birth control">birth control</a>, under the umbrella of the Croatian Catholic movement. Stepinac even railed against "mixed sunbathing and swimming".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEWest199560-78">[74]</a> West also observes that by 1934, Stepinac had developed into an <blockquote>ardent, almost obsessive, Croatian nationalist whose bigotry was softened only by his piety and a measure of human kindness.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEWest199582-34">[30]</a></blockquote> According to the journalist Marcus Tanner, by the time he became coadjutor bishop, Stepinac had become a determined opponent of the Serb-centric approach of the Yugoslav government, and by the time he became archbishop he was a strong supporter of the HSS, making it clear that he had voted for Maček in the 1938 elections.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETanner1997145-79">[75]</a> <a href="/wiki/Stella_Alexander" title="Stella Alexander">Stella Alexander</a> wrote of Stepinac's political outlook: <blockquote>He was in many ways a typical son of the Church in Croatia of that time, fervidly pious, narrow and dogmatic, believing, in his own words, that "Jews, freemasons and communists" were "the worst enemies of the Church", and that the Orthodox Serbs, the schismatics must whenever possible be brought back to the true Church. This was coupled not only with great courage, but with social concern and charity, especially when he was confronted with individual cases; he was a good pastor and felt close to his people. The impression he makes is also, unexpectedly, one of simplicity and personal modesty. He was conscious of the dignity and weight of his office but never of himself. His courage, which was always great, increased as the pressures on him grew heavier and in the end could be described as heroic; this and his devotion to duty made flight or even withdrawal from his diocese unthinkable. But his political short-sightedness limited his grasp of the apocalyptic events of 1941 to the immediate future of Croatia and the Catholic Church in Croatia, and this left him open to the charge of complicity in the terrible crimes of the ustaše. The same blinkered outlook kept him from establishing some kind of modus Vivendi with the new government immediately after the war.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEAlexander1978-80">[76]</a></blockquote>

Commencing on 6 April, a German-led Axis invasion force began its assault from multiple directions, quickly overcoming the limited resistance. During the fighting, several Croat units mutinied and others performed poorly or defected. On 10 April 1941, with the assistance of the Germans, the senior Ustaše figure in the country, <a href="/wiki/Slavko_Kvaternik" title="Slavko Kvaternik">Slavko Kvaternik</a>, proclaimed the establishment of the <a href="/wiki/Independent_State_of_Croatia" title="Independent State of Croatia">Independent State of Croatia</a> (Croatian: Nezavisna Država Hrvatska, NDH). German tanks entered Zagreb later that same day and were greeted by cheering crowds.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEU.S._Army198660-88">[84]</a> Before the war the <a href="/wiki/Usta%C5%A1e" title="Ustaše">Ustaše</a> were a fascist, ultranationalist, racist and terrorist organization, fighting for an independent Croatia. Ustaše terrorists set off bombs on international trains bound for Yugoslavia,<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich197533-89">[85]</a> and were convicted in the 1934 assassination of the Yugoslav King and French foreign Minister in Marseilles.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich197533-89">[85]</a> <a href="/wiki/Ante_Paveli%C4%87" title="Ante Pavelić">Ante Pavelić</a>, Kvaternik and other Ustaše leaders were sentenced to death in absentia by French courts, as the true assassination ringleaders.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich197534-90">[86]</a> The Ustaše "17 Principles" proclaimed that those who were not "of Croat blood" (i.e. Serbs and Jews), will not have any political role in the future Croat state. In his 1936 tract, "The Croat Question", the Ustaše leader, Pavelić, spouted anti-Serb and anti-Semitic hatred, calling Jews the enemy of the Croat people.<a href="#cite_note-91">[87]</a> On 12 April, Stepinac visited Kvaternik and pledged his loyalty to the NDH.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEWest199583-49">[45]</a> The following day, when the Ustaše leader Ante Pavelić arrived in Zagreb, Stepinac did not participate in the welcome, but he did visit Pavelić on 16 April. These meetings and a radio broadcast all occurred prior to the capitulation of the Yugoslav armed forces on 17 April.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEWest199583-49">[45]</a> That evening, Stepinac hosted a dinner party for Pavelić and the leading Ustaše.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTECornwell2008253-92">[88]</a> On 27 April, Stepinac recorded in his diary that Pavelić assured him he will act per the Catholic Church's desires, and that Pavelić stated he will "exterminate" the <a href="/wiki/Old_Catholic_Church" title="Old Catholic Church">Old Catholic Church</a> (which rejects Papal authority) and will not be tolerant of the Serbian Orthodox Church, because it was not the Church for him, but a political organization. Based on this Stepinac concluded in his diary that Pavelic is "a sincere Catholic and that the Church would enjoy freedom to carry out its work", although he recognised that difficulties lay ahead.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBiondich2007a42-93">[89]</a><a href="#cite_note-94">[90]</a> On the same day, the official Croatian Catholic newspaper Nedelja praised both Pavelić and Hitler, saying:<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEWest199584-95">[91]</a> <blockquote>God, who directs the destiny of nations and controls the hearts of kings, has given us Ante Pavelić and moved the leader of friendly and allied people, Adolf Hitler, to use his victorious troops to disperse our oppressors and enable us to create an Independent State of Croatia. Glory be to God, our gratitude to Adolf Hitler, and infinite loyalty to our Poglavnik, Ante Pavelić.</blockquote> Immediately the Ustaše implemented draconian decrees specifying death as the sole penalty for those who attempt to act against the regime (April 17),<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001383–384-96">[92]</a> opened the first <a href="/wiki/Danica_concentration_camp" title="Danica concentration camp">concentration camp</a> (April 15), and initiated the persecution of Jews and Serbs. Aware the Ustaše were preparing Nazi-style Race Laws, on April 23 Stepinac wrote Ustaše interior minister <a href="/wiki/Andrija_Artukovi%C4%87" title="Andrija Artuković">Andrija Artuković</a> a letter, in which Stepinac calls the Race Laws "necessary", and only asks that Jewish converts to Catholicism be exempted.<a href="#cite_note-97">[93]</a> Five days later, on 28 April, Stepinac issued a "rapturous" encyclical to his diocese regarding the creation of the "young Croatian state",<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBiondich2007a42-93">[89]</a> which included the words:<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEWest199584-95">[91]</a> <blockquote>Our people has come face to face with its age-old and ardently desired dream. The times are such that it is no longer the tongue which speaks but the blood with its mysterious links with the country, in which we have seen the light of God, and with its people from whom we spring. Do we need to say that the blood flows more quickly in our veins, that the hearts in our breasts beat faster? ... It is easy to see God's hand at work here.</blockquote> Stepinac urged the clergy of his archdiocese to fulfill their duty to the new Croatian state and pray that the head of state, i.e. the Ustashe leader Pavelić, <blockquote>may have the spirit and wisdom in order to fulfill noble and responsible office for the glory of God and the salvation of the people in truth and justice.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001555-98">[94]</a></blockquote> Stepinac's letter captured what was a common sentiment among Croatian nationalists and much of the Catholic Church in the new state.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBiondich2007a42-93">[89]</a> Considering the marginal role of the Church in the political arena during the interwar period, the creation of the NDH appeared to offer the Church and the Croatian Catholic movement an opportunity. The leaders of the new state appeared willing to work with Church leaders, and thus reduce the marginalisation the Church had been subject to under the Yugoslav state.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBiondich2007a41-57">[53]</a> Stepinac's immediate visits to Kvaternik and Pavelić, and his diocesan letter all assisted the Ustaše in consolidating their control of the new state,<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001370-99">[95]</a> and enhanced its credibility with the Croatian people.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETanner1997144-100">[96]</a> Cornwell notes that this letter was issued on the same day that <a href="/wiki/Gudovac_massacre" title="Gudovac massacre">nearly 200 Serbs were massacred</a> by the Ustaše near <a href="/wiki/Bjelovar" title="Bjelovar">Bjelovar</a>.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTECornwell2008253-92">[88]</a> Even prior to Stepinac's letter, Ustaše and Volksdeutche had already <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/osijek">destroyed the Osijek synagogue</a> (14 April), and on 17 April Pavelić had issued the Decree on the Protection of the Nation and the State, the first of the acts that placed Serbs, Jews and Roma outside the law, leading to their persecution and destruction.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001383–384-96">[92]</a> The Ustaše had opened and started filling <a href="/wiki/Danica_concentration_camp" title="Danica concentration camp">their first concentration camp</a> (15 April), and had instituted additional <a href="/wiki/Ante_Paveli%C4%87#Legislation" title="Ante Pavelić">discriminatory edicts against Jews and Serbs</a> (14, 19, 22 and 25 April). Stepinac already knew of the planned racial laws, which Pavelić signed only 2 days after Stepinac issued his letter praising Pavelić and the Ustaše state. On 30 April 1941, Pavelić signed the main race laws - the Legal Decree on Racial Origins, and the Legal Decree on the Protection of Aryan Blood and the Honor of the Croatian People. In a letter to the Pope from May 16, Stepinac wrote that the race laws were meant to appease the Nazis, and concludes that "it was a much lesser evil that the Croats passed this law rather than that the Germans took all power into their own hands".<a href="#cite_note-:0-101">[97]</a> In a May 14 letter to the Pope, when he knew of the slaughter of 260 Orthodox Serbs held in the Glina Church, Stepinac praised Ustaše efforts to turn Croatia into a "Catholic country", and praised <a href="/wiki/Ante_Paveli%C4%87" title="Ante Pavelić">Pavelić</a> in particular, noting he will "liquidate" (eliminate) Orthodox Serbs from Croatia: <blockquote>Completely honestly, I notice that in the circles of power there is the utmost desire to turn Croatia into a Catholic country. The Minister of War [<a href="/wiki/Slavko_Kvaternik" title="Slavko Kvaternik">Slavko Kvaternik</a>] absolutely guaranteed me: either Croatia will be a Catholic country, or let it disappear…The desire of those who currently rule Croatia to implement the teachings of the Catholic Church obliges us to help and support them with all the loyalty and strength we have." Stepinac added: "Pavelić is a true Catholic practicing believer, and he wants to create, despite huge obstacles, a Catholic state in Croatia ... I believe that if the Poglavnik, <a href="/wiki/Ante_Paveli%C4%87" title="Ante Pavelić">Pavelić</a>, were head of government for 20 years, the schismatics [i.e. Orthodox Serbs] would be completely liquidated (eliminated) from Croatia." Referencing Nazi plans to expel 260,000 Slovenes, Stepinac wrote: "Earlier [Pavelić] asked me what I thought if he decided to ask the German authorities to change the fate of Slovenes and transfer them as Catholics to Croatia, among Catholics, and transfer the same number of schismatic Serbs from Croatia to Macedonia. I replied to [Pavelić] that such a solution would be better for the unfortunate Slovenes"<a href="#cite_note-:0-101">[97]</a></blockquote> Croatian historian, Hrvoje Klasić, notes Stepinac supported actions that today's courts would classify as ethnic cleansing of Serbs.<a href="#cite_note-102">[98]</a> In May 1941 Pavelić visited the Pope. Phayer writes that Stepinac arranged the audience with Pius XII,<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPhayer200032-103">[99]</a> and "recommended the dictator to the Holy See".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPhayer200037-104">[100]</a> Ester Gitman writes that "Stepinac chose not to join Pavelić" and that he was given a private audience with the Pope.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEGitman200650-32">[28]</a> Pavelić put pressure on Archbishop Stepinac to write to Pope Pius XII, via Cardinal Maglione, to request official recognition of the Independent State of Croatia.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEGitman200650-32">[28]</a> The answer came back in July - in accordance with long-standing tradition during wartime, no Vatican recognition of the NDH was forthcoming. But the Pope did send Abbot <a href="/wiki/Giuseppe_Marcone" title="Giuseppe Marcone">Giuseppe Marcone</a> as apostolic visitor, who acted as papal nuncio, which satisfied Stepinac, since he felt "the Vatican had de facto recognized the new state".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPhayer200032-103">[99]</a> In May 16 report to the Pope, Stepinac wrote: <blockquote>It is obvious for now, the pressure of the Germans, who are very much felt in the laws against Jews, although they claim that they do not want to interfere in the internal affairs of the Croatian State. Indeed, the racist law passed these days must be attributed to the severe pressures of Germany, because I know from personal encounters with people who run the state that they do not intend to keep the law in full force for long as it has been published. It is much less evil that the Croats passed this law than if the Germans had taken all power into their own hands.<a href="#cite_note-105">[101]</a> </blockquote> Pavelić met Hitler for the first time on 7 June 1941, and told him that many younger clergy were supportive of the Ustaše regime, but mentioned that Stepinac had advised him that he could only rule if he was "as forebearing as possible". Biondich notes that Stepinac was unhappy that many younger priests were overtly supporting the Ustaše.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBiondich2007a43-106">[102]</a> On 26 June 1941, Stepinac met with the <a href="/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Archdiocese_of_Vrhbosna" title="Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Vrhbosna">Archbishop of Vrhbosna</a> and the bishops of <a href="/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Archdiocese_of_Belgrade" title="Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Belgrade">Belgrade</a>, <a href="/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Diocese_of_Banja_Luka" title="Roman Catholic Diocese of Banja Luka">Banja Luka</a>, <a href="/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Archdiocese_of_Split-Makarska" title="Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Split-Makarska">Split</a>, <a href="/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Diocese_of_Hvar-Bra%C4%8D-Vis" title="Roman Catholic Diocese of Hvar-Brač-Vis">Hvar</a>, <a href="/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Diocese_of_%C5%A0ibenik" title="Roman Catholic Diocese of Šibenik">Šibenik</a> and <a href="/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Diocese_of_Senj-Modru%C5%A1" title="Roman Catholic Diocese of Senj-Modruš">Senj-Modruš</a>. The <a href="/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Diocese_of_Mostar-Duvno" title="Roman Catholic Diocese of Mostar-Duvno">Bishop of Mostar</a> sent a <a href="/wiki/Friar" title="Friar">friar</a> to the meeting. The group decided to go to Pavelić to express their devotion and trust. At the reception with Pavelić, Stepinac stated that "love of religion and country spring only from God", then promised Pavelić their loyalty and co-operation.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEWest199588–89-107">[103]</a> Despite initially welcoming the Independent State of Croatia, Stepinac subsequently[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Dates_and_numbers#Chronological_items" title="Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Dates and numbers">when?</a>] condemned the Nazi-aligned state's atrocities against Jews and Serbs.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEGilbert2003236-108">[104]</a> He objected to the persecution of Jews and Nazi laws, helped Jews and others to escape and criticized Ustaše atrocities in front of <a href="/wiki/Zagreb_Cathedral" title="Zagreb Cathedral">Zagreb Cathedral</a> in 1943.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEJansen200387,_151-109">[105]</a> Despite this, Stepinac never broke with the Ustaše regime and continued to attend public gatherings at their side.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKent2002164-110">[106]</a> After the invasion and Italian annexation of much of the Dalmatian coast, the <a href="/wiki/Ecclesiastical_province" title="Ecclesiastical province">ecclesiastical province</a> of the Zagreb archbishopric included the Archdiocese of Zagreb, as well as the dioceses of <a href="/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Archdiocese_of_%C4%90akovo-Osijek" class="mw-redirect" title="Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Đakovo-Osijek">Đakovo</a> and Senj-Modruš, and the <a href="/wiki/Croatian_Catholic_Eparchy_of_Kri%C5%BEevci" class="mw-redirect" title="Croatian Catholic Eparchy of Križevci">Greek Catholic Bishopric of Križevci</a>.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBiondich2007a58-111">[107]</a> Stepinac had very limited formal authority over the <a href="/wiki/Suffragan_bishop" title="Suffragan bishop">suffragan bishops</a> of his province, being more of a "first among equals" than a superior. Biondich states that Stepinac did not have the power to dictate policy or control the behaviour of the Sarajevo-based Archbishop of Vrhbosna, Ivan Šarić, or the other bishops in the NDH.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBiondich2007a42-93">[89]</a> Yet Goldstein notes that Stepinac communicated with Sarajevo Archbishop Ivan Šarić, but apparently never even privately condemned his public support for the Ustaše genocides, unlike the <a href="/wiki/Croatian_Peasant_Party" title="Croatian Peasant Party">Croatian Peasant Party</a> members in London who vehemently condemned Šarić.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEGoldstein2018585-112">[108]</a> By the end of Summer 1941, Ante Pavelić publicly blamed the irregular "Wild Ustashe" (some 25,000-30,000 of them, including many criminal elements) for all the atrocities performed by the Ustashe in the previous months. The state authorities never paid members of "Wild Ustashe", nor acknowledged them to be in the military service, though government-controlled press and Ustashe officials in former months clearly encouraged those aggressive but undisciplined groups to go against the "enemy elements", as the regime needed the manpower to execute ethnic cleansing and genocide within the NDH. Some members of that irregular part of the <a href="/wiki/Ustashe_Militia" class="mw-redirect" title="Ustashe Militia">Ustashe Militia</a> were arrested, tried and executed for the crimes against Serbs and Gypsies. This was done to convey a message to the rest of the "Wild Ustashe" to become part of the Ustashe hierarchy through regimentation.<a href="#cite_note-113">[109]</a> Persecution against Serbs, Jews and Roma persisted, however. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Relations_with_the_government">Relations with the government</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Aloysius_Stepinac&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: Relations with the government">edit</a>]</div> The historian, Jozo Tomasevich, states that the NDH regime unleashed genocidal policies against Jews, Serbs and Roma, while also subjecting Croats to the greatest repression they experienced in their history.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001381-114">[110]</a> According to <a href="/wiki/John_Van_Antwerp_Fine_Jr." title="John Van Antwerp Fine Jr.">John Fine</a>, Stepinac enjoyed close associations with the Ustaše leaders, as he was the archbishop of the capital.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEFine2007284–285-1">[1]</a> During the war Stepinac personally celebrated <a href="/wiki/Te_Deum" title="Te Deum">Te Deums</a> on the anniversary of the founding of the NDH, including on April 10., 1945.<a href="#cite_note-:1-115">[111]</a> Stepinac served as the <a href="/wiki/Military_ordinariate" title="Military ordinariate">military Vicar</a> of the NDH army throughout the war.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEAlexander197880-116">[112]</a> He appeared in photographs numerous times in Ustaše newspapers, alongside Pavelić and other Ustaše leaders.<a href="#cite_note-:1-115">[111]</a><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEGoldstein2018582–583-13">[13]</a> Although he later sought to distance himself from the Ustaše,<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001372-117">[113]</a> especially when it became clear the Axis powers and the Ustaše would lose the war,<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001556-118">[114]</a> Stepinac and the hierarchy of Catholic Church in Croatia nevertheless continued to publicly support the Ustaše regime until the very end.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001372-117">[113]</a> In mid-May 1941, Maglione was already noting that Stepinac and other bishops were treading cautiously with the NDH authorities to avoid "compromising themselves" with the Ustaše leadership.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBiondich2007a43-106">[102]</a> In July 1941, no <a href="/wiki/Te_Deum" title="Te Deum">Te Deum</a> was sung at the <a href="/wiki/Zagreb_Cathedral" title="Zagreb Cathedral">Zagreb Cathedral</a> in celebration of Pavelić's birthday, which contributed to tension between Stepinac and the Ustaše leader.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEGitman200651-119">[115]</a> Yet that same month, at the end of the first NDH Bishop's conference, the bishops were received by Pavelić. Stepinac personally greeted Pavelić and stated that the bishops were visiting him "as the legitimate representatives of the Church of God in the NDH, with the promise of sincere and loyal cooperation for a better future of our homeland".<a href="#cite_note-120">[116]</a> In October 1941, shortly after the Ustaše destroyed the main <a href="/wiki/Zagreb_Synagogue" title="Zagreb Synagogue">synagogue in Zagreb</a>, Stepinac preached a sermon in which he said, <blockquote>"A House of God, of whatever religion, is a holy place. Whoever touches such a place will pay with his life. An attack on a House of God of any religion constitutes an attack on all religious communities."<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEGitman200656-121">[117]</a> (Ivo Goldstein notes that claims that Stepinac said this come from a single individual, and are not confirmed by any other source, despite the fact Stepinac supposedly made the speech in the Zagreb cathedral. Goldstein also notes it's contrary to the rather gentler criticism of Ustaše race laws in well-documented, private-only communications at that time)<a href="#cite_note-122">[118]</a></blockquote> In November 1941, Stepinac chaired a bishop's conference, during which he heard reports from various bishops within the NDH. What he heard made his enthusiasm wane for the new Croatian state. On 20 November he wrote to Pavelić including some of the reports he had received. He stated that he believed that the worst of the atrocities were over, and that he believed they were the work of individuals. Yet contrary to Stepinac blaming individuals, historians state the Ustaše regime carried out systematic genocidal policies against Jews, Serbs and Roma.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001381-114">[110]</a> The letter did challenge Pavelić, stating that "no-one can deny that these terrible acts of violence and cruelty have been taking place", pointing out that Pavelić himself had condemned the atrocities committed by the Ustaše. He said, "The Croatian nation has been proud of its 1000-year-old culture and Christian tradition. That is why we wait for it to show in practice, now that it has achieved its freedom, a greater nobility and humanity than that displayed by its former rulers".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETanner1997155-123">[119]</a> Tomasevich notes that Stepinac never made this letter public, e.g. in the form of a pastoral letter, which could have had a beneficial effect on restraining Ustaše crimes.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001540-124">[120]</a> In fact Tomasevich writes that neither Stepinac, nor anyone else in the Church hierarchy ever uttered one word of public protest against Ustaše crimes against Serbs, by far the most numerous victims of NDH genocidal policies.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001537-125">[121]</a> In December 1941, Pavelić met with the <a href="/wiki/Italian_Minister_of_Foreign_Affairs" class="mw-redirect" title="Italian Minister of Foreign Affairs">Italian foreign minister</a>, Count <a href="/wiki/Galeazzo_Ciano" title="Galeazzo Ciano">Galeazzo Ciano</a>, and told him that the lower levels of Catholic clergy displayed a very positive attitude towards the Ustaše regime, but that some of the bishops were openly hostile to the government.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBiondich2007a43–44-126">[122]</a> Also in December, Stepinac declared membership in <a href="/wiki/Catholic_Action" title="Catholic Action">Catholic Action</a> and in the Ustaše to be incompatible.<a href="#cite_note-127">[123]</a> Cornwell states that Stepinac was "wholly in accord with the general goals of the new Croatian state".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTECornwell2008253-92">[88]</a> Tomasevich states that the Catholic Church fully supported Ustaše policies, and failed to publicly condemn crimes against Serbs. Many priests and well-known Catholic laymen openly sided with the Ustaše, assumed responsible positions in the NDH, while the Catholic press praised the Pavelić regime.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001555–556-16">[16]</a> On more than one occasion, the archbishop proclaimed his support for the Independent State of Croatia and welcomed the demise of Yugoslavia.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEFine2007284–285-1">[1]</a> On 10 April each year during the war he celebrated a mass to celebrate proclamation of the NDH.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEAlexander1987-5">[5]</a>[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citing_sources" title="Wikipedia:Citing sources">page needed</a>] In June 1945 the Papal legate to the NDH, Marcone, related to a British officer in Zagreb that the Croatian Catholic Church during the war "tended to identify itself too closely with the Ustaše", because (1) many Croat priests were passionate believers in Croatia's independence, thus they were tempted to turn a blind eye on Ustaše atrocities, and (2) they were drawn to leading Ustaše because they were devout Catholics, including the worst criminals like Pavelić, Rukavina and Luburić.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001555–556-16">[16]</a> In May, 1943, Stepinac sent a report to the Papal secretary of state, on the attitude of the Catholic Church in Croatia towards the Ustaše regime.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001371-128">[124]</a> Responding to criticisms that the Church had not done enough to oppose Ustaše crimes, Stepinac enumerated the main benefits the Church received from the Ustaše regime: it fights abortion, which Stepinac claimed is mainly performed by Jewish and Serb doctors, and has banned pornography, according to Stepinac, published by Jews and Serbs; that it abolished Freemasonry and vigorously fought against communism, that it issued decrees against swearing. The Ustaše government ensured the Christian education of NDH soldiers; insisted on religious education in schools; that it increased financial aid to Catholic religious institutions, increased the salaries of the clergy, supported the Church's charitable activities, financially supported the construction of new and the repair of existing churches. According to Stepinac, all these were indicators of the Ustaše regime's goodwill towards the Catholic Church, and "as the Archbishop's report makes clear, the Church reciprocated in kind."<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001371-128">[124]</a> In the same letter Stepinac described Yugoslav government-in-exile complaints against the Ustaše regime as "enemy propaganda" aimed at bringing the NDH into disrepute in the eyes of the Vatican. He admitted that atrocities had been committed against Serbs by irresponsible people without the sanction of the NDH authorities, and claimed that many of those responsible had been executed by the government. He deplored and condemned the atrocities, but stated that they were a reaction to Serb behavior during the interwar period during which, he claimed, Serbs had violated all the rights of the Croatian people. He also reminded the Cardinal of the assassination of the Croatian deputies in the Parliament in 1928.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001371–372-129">[125]</a> Tomasevich notes the Ustaše also sought to justify, what they regularly referred to as "some excesses" by individual Ustaše and "wild Ustaše", by invoking prewar repressive acts by the Serb-dominated Yugoslav regime.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001402-130">[126]</a> However, contrary to Stepinac's views, Tomasevich writes that "the wartime Ustaše policies against the Serbs were of a genocidal nature and totally out of proportion to earlier [Serb] anti-Croatian measures, both in nature and extent". Furthermore, the Ustaše regime also carried genocides against Jews and Roma,<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001404-131">[127]</a> in NDH state-run concentration camps. Pavelić attended services at Zagreb Cathedral only once in the four years he was in power, and Stepinac did not greet him at the entrance on that occasion.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEGitman200651-119">[115]</a> Stepinac lost control of the Archdiocese's publication Katolički List under the new regime.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEGitman2011101-132">[128]</a> In 1942, officials from <a href="/wiki/Kingdom_of_Hungary_(1920%E2%80%931946)" title="Kingdom of Hungary (1920–1946)">Hungary</a> lobbied to ecclesiastically attach <a href="/wiki/Hungarian_occupation_of_Yugoslav_territories" title="Hungarian occupation of Yugoslav territories">Hungarian-occupied Međimurje</a> to a diocese in Hungary.

It had no real alternative, given that the likely alternate governments were led by Serb-chauvinist <a href="/wiki/Chetniks" title="Chetniks">Chetniks</a> or communists. By that time the Ustaše had long lost the support of the great majority of the Croatian people, and most members of the main Croatian prewar party, the <a href="/wiki/Croatian_Peasant_Party" title="Croatian Peasant Party">Croatian Peasant Party</a>, were supporting the Partisans.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001367-140">[136]</a> Contrary to this, the Church maintained its support of the NDH government to the bitter end.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001372-117">[113]</a> This is demonstrated by the pastoral letter issued after the episcopal conference of 24 March 1945, in which the Croatian Catholic Church maintained its formal support for the puppet state and its rulers, despite the fact that most senior <a href="/wiki/Regime" title="Regime">regime</a> figures were preparing to flee the country.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001550-141">[137]</a> The Episcopal Conference was convened at the urging of the Ustaše government, who also had a hand in drafting the letter, issued after the formation of the new, unified Yugoslav government, which had already been recognized by the Allies.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001550-141">[137]</a> According to a later British representative in Zagreb, the papal legate Marcone stated that if he had known of the Bishops' letter of support for the NDH, he would have done everything to prevent its publication<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001550-141">[137]</a> (during the war the Vatican recognized the Yugoslav government in exile, and postwar recognized the new Yugoslav government). The Catholic press in the NDH also maintained its support of Pavelić right to the end.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001370-99">[95]</a> Ivo Goldstein notes Stepinac's protests against Ustaše crimes, yet states that Stepinac's biggest failure was his public support for the criminal NDH, from its first dayt to its last - he celebrated the coming of the Ustaše to power, held Te Deums on the anniversaries of the NDH (even on April 10, 1945), on numerous occasions he was photographed with Pavelić and other Ustaše officials, all of which provided legitimacy to Ustaše regime, allowing it to maintain power and commit crimes.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEGoldstein2018582–583-13">[13]</a> The Ustaše ignored Stepinac's private criticisms, while only a relatively small number of people heard his few public criticisms. On the other hand, countless people saw and read about Stepinac's public support for the NDH. Furthermore, Stepinac expressed much of his criticisms only after the Ustaše had already committed most of their genocidal crimes.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEGoldstein2018582–583-13">[13]</a> Biondich concludes that claims that Stepinac was an Ustaše sympathiser, and even the spiritual leader of the regime are unfounded. He further states that while Stepinac supported independence, he "began privately to distance himself from the regime within weeks, and certainly within months of the Croatian state's formation." He also observes that while Stepinac continued to attend to his ceremonial duties at official state events, he was privately raising his concerns with the Ustaše leaders.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBiondich2007a44-142">[138]</a> However Biondich also states that Stepinac was not the outspoken critic of the Ustaše regime that many of his defenders claim. On the other hand, historian Robert McCormick states, "for all the Archbishop's hand wringing, he continued to be a tacit participant in the <a href="/wiki/Independent_State_of_Croatia" title="Independent State of Croatia">Independent State of Croatia</a> (ISC). He repeatedly appeared in public with the Poglavnik (the Ustaše leader <a href="/wiki/Ante_Paveli%C4%87" title="Ante Pavelić">Ante Pavelić</a>), and issued Te Deum's on the anniversary of the NDH's creation. His failure to publicly denounce the Ustaše's atrocities in the name of the NDH, was tantamount to accepting Pavelić's policies".<a href="#cite_note-:7-14">[14]</a> On 10 April 1945, Stepinac held a mass in the Zagreb Cathedral for the 4th anniversary of the NDH's founding, and Te Deum's were sung for what was left of the Ustaše state.<a href="#cite_note-Yugoslavia,_Richard_West_2009,_p.161-143">[139]</a> <a href="/wiki/Richard_West_(journalist)" title="Richard West (journalist)">Richard West</a> writes that, on 15 April, as Pavelić and other Ustaše leaders were getting ready to flee, "Archbishop Stepinac devoted his sermon to what he believed was Croatia's worst sin, not mass murder, but swearing."<a href="#cite_note-Yugoslavia,_Richard_West_2009,_p.161-143">[139]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Response_to_Ustaše_atrocities">Response to Ustaše atrocities</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Aloysius_Stepinac&action=edit&section=11" title="Edit section: Response to Ustaše atrocities">edit</a>]</div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1251242444">.mw-parser-output .ambox{border:1px solid #a2a9b1;border-left:10px solid #36c;background-color:#fbfbfb;box-sizing:border-box}.mw-parser-output .ambox+link+.ambox,.mw-parser-output .ambox+link+style+.ambox,.mw-parser-output .ambox+link+link+.ambox,.mw-parser-output .ambox+.mw-empty-elt+link+.ambox,.mw-parser-output .ambox+.mw-empty-elt+link+style+.ambox,.mw-parser-output .ambox+.mw-empty-elt+link+link+.ambox{margin-top:-1px}html body.mediawiki .mw-parser-output .ambox.mbox-small-left{margin:4px 1em 4px 0;overflow:hidden;width:238px;border-collapse:collapse;font-size:88%;line-height:1.25em}.mw-parser-output .ambox-speedy{border-left:10px solid #b32424;background-color:#fee7e6}.mw-parser-output .ambox-delete{border-left:10px solid #b32424}.mw-parser-output .ambox-content{border-left:10px solid #f28500}.mw-parser-output .ambox-style{border-left:10px solid #fc3}.mw-parser-output .ambox-move{border-left:10px solid #9932cc}.mw-parser-output .ambox-protection{border-left:10px solid #a2a9b1}.mw-parser-output .ambox .mbox-text{border:none;padding:0.25em 0.5em;width:100%}.mw-parser-output .ambox .mbox-image{border:none;padding:2px 0 2px 0.5em;text-align:center}.mw-parser-output .ambox .mbox-imageright{border:none;padding:2px 0.5em 2px 0;text-align:center}.mw-parser-output .ambox .mbox-empty-cell{border:none;padding:0;width:1px}.mw-parser-output .ambox .mbox-image-div{width:52px}@media(min-width:720px){.mw-parser-output .ambox{margin:0 10%}}@media print{body.ns-0 .mw-parser-output .ambox{display:none!important}}</style><table class="box-POV plainlinks metadata ambox ambox-content ambox-POV" role="presentation"><tbody><tr><td class="mbox-image"><div class="mbox-image-div"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/fe/Unbalanced_scales.svg/45px-Unbalanced_scales.svg.png" decoding="async" width="45" height="40" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/fe/Unbalanced_scales.svg/68px-Unbalanced_scales.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/fe/Unbalanced_scales.svg/90px-Unbalanced_scales.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="400" data-file-height="354" /></div></td><td class="mbox-text"><div class="mbox-text-span">The <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Neutral_point_of_view" title="Wikipedia:Neutral point of view">neutrality</a> of this section is <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NPOV_dispute" title="Wikipedia:NPOV dispute">disputed</a>.

I consider that it would be necessary, in passing the necessary laws, to take converts of this kind into account."<a href="#cite_note-144">[140]</a> Historian Ivo Goldstein notes that Stepinac not only did not protest against the adoption of racial laws, he called them "necessary", and only asked that Jewish converts to Catholicism be exempted.<a href="#cite_note-145">[141]</a> Following Pavelić's proclamation of the Race Laws, Stepinac praised Pavelić to the Pope, as "a true Catholic practicing believer",<a href="#cite_note-:0-101">[97]</a> and stated that "it was a much lesser evil that the Croats passed this law rather than that the Germans took all power into their own hands".<a href="#cite_note-:0-101">[97]</a> Stepinac again wrote to Artuković on 22 May to protest the race laws and their application to converted Jews, telling him that members of other races should not be discriminated against "through no fault of their own."<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBiondich2007a42-93">[89]</a> He wrote, "We ... appeal to you to issue regulations so that even in the framework of antisemitic legislation, and similar legislation concerning Serbs, the principles of human dignity be preserved."<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPhayer200035-146">[142]</a> Stepinac added: "Everyone will certainly approve the attempt for the economy to be in national hands, not to allow a non-national and anti-national element to amass capital, or foreign elements to decide about the State and the people. But to take away any possibility of existence from members of other peoples or other races, and to brand them with the stamp of shame, this is an issue of humanity and a question of morality".<a href="#cite_note-147">[143]</a> As Goldstein notes, Stepinac seemingly argued for "humane" race laws. On 24 May 1942, Stepinac condemned racial persecution in general terms, although he did not mention <a href="/wiki/Serbs" title="Serbs">Serbs</a>. He stated in a diocesan letter: <blockquote>All men and all races are children of God; all without distinction. Those who are Gypsies, Black, European, or Aryan all have the same rights ... for this reason, the Catholic Church had always condemned, and continues to condemn, all injustice and all violence committed in the name of theories of class, race, or nationality. It is not permissible to persecute Gypsies or Jews because they are thought to be an inferior race.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEJansen2003151-148">[144]</a><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEGoldhagen2002146-149">[145]</a></blockquote> In a sermon on 25 October 1942, he further commented on racial acceptance:<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBreitman2005208-150">[146]</a> <blockquote>We affirm then that all peoples and races descend from God. In fact, there exists but one race ... The members of this race can be white or black, they can be separated by oceans or live on the opposing poles, [but] they remain first and foremost the race created by God, according to the precepts of natural law and positive Divine law as it is written in the hearts and minds of humans or revealed by Jesus Christ, the son of God, the sovereign of all peoples.</blockquote> In response to criticisms by the Yugoslav government in exile, that the Church had not done enough to counter Ustaše crimes, in May 1943 Stepinac wrote a letter to the Papal secretary in which he acknowledged the crimes, yet praised the Ustaše, among other reasons, for fighting abortion and pornography, with Stepinac blaming Jews and Serbs for both.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001371-128">[124]</a> In his homily of 31 October 1943, which some claim is his most resolute critique of the Ustaše,<a href="#cite_note-151">[147]</a> Stepinac first inveighed against abortion, the "pagan fashions of today's female world" and "all the licentiousness ... that has been observed ... at sea beaches and other bathing spots". He blames these "sins" for the fact that "God like thunder today brings down not just cities and villages, but entire peoples". The speech's primary theme is the defense of the Church's actions, against those who "accuse us of not having arisen in timely or appropriate fashion against the crimes in parts of our homeland". Stepinac states that "the Church cannot force others to behave according to God's laws" and cannot be responsible for "the hotheads in its own priestly ranks". He proclaims it was not the Church that "created in the souls of people the dissatisfaction and insatiability which has produced such sad consequences", instead he blames "certain circles, organizations, and members of other national groups", which some sources state is a reference to Serbs and perhaps Jews.<a href="#cite_note-:2-152">[148]</a> Stepinac then criticizes Communism, its denial of private property rights, its approval of divorce, negation of God, refusal to allow religious education in schools, etc. Finally at the end of the homily he states: "The Catholic Church does not know races that lord over others, or slave races. The Catholic Church knows only races and peoples as the creatures of God, and if it values some more, it is those of noble heart, and not of stronger fist. For her, a king in the royal palace is a man, in the same way as the last pauper and gypsy under a tent ... The system of shooting hundreds of hostages for a crime in which no culprit can be found is a pagan system that never yielded a good fruit".<a href="#cite_note-:2-152">[148]</a> In this speech Stepinac condemns "all the wrongdoing, all the killing of the innocent, all the burning of villages". Much of his public criticism was spoken after most of the genocides were already completed, and it became clear the Nazis and Ustaše would lose. These belated speeches were made before limited audiences, unlike his pastoral letter, condemning the Communists, that he ordered read from all the pulpits across Croatia, only 4 months after the Communists seized power. In a letter to the Vatican of May 1943, Stepinac still praised the Ustaše for the "good things" they had done, including the "strict ban on all pornographic publications, which were first and foremost published by Jews and Orthodox!".<a href="#cite_note-153">[149]</a> Stepinac was involved directly and indirectly in efforts to save Jews from persecution. <a href="/wiki/Amiel_Shomrony" title="Amiel Shomrony">Amiel Shomrony</a> (Emil Schwartz), was the personal secretary of <a href="/wiki/Miroslav_%C5%A0alom_Freiberger" title="Miroslav Šalom Freiberger">Miroslav Šalom Freiberger</a> (the chief <a href="/wiki/Rabbi" title="Rabbi">rabbi</a> in <a href="/wiki/Zagreb" title="Zagreb">Zagreb</a>) until 1942. In the actions for saving Jews, Shomrony acted as the mediator between the chief rabbi and Stepinac.

As a military vicar, Stepinac dispensed blessings to the Ustaše armies.<a href="#cite_note-157">[153]</a> Stepinac initially responded to these mass killings with private letters of protest. Thus, on 14 May 1941, Stepinac received word of an <a href="/wiki/Glina_massacres" title="Glina massacres">Ustaše massacre of Serb villagers at Glina</a>. On the same day, he wrote to Pavelić saying:<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBiondich2007a42–43-158">[154]</a> <blockquote>Just now I received news that the Ustaše in Glina executed without trial and investigation 260 Serbs. I know that the Serbs committed some major crimes in our homeland in these last twenty years. But I consider it my bishop's responsibility to raise my voice and to say that this is not permitted according to Catholic teaching, which is why I ask that you undertake the most urgent measures on the entire territory of the Independent State of Croatia, so that not a single Serb is killed unless it is shown that he committed a crime warranting death. Otherwise, we will not be able to count on the blessing of heaven, without which we must perish.</blockquote> According to Biondich, in the first weeks or even months after the establishment of the NDH, Stepinac may have not known that the atrocities perpetrated by the Ustaše were a key component of their plan. This view supposes that Stepinac considered the atrocities were either spontaneous or the result of so-called "irresponsible elements" who would be held to account by the authorities. His correspondence with Pavelić tends to suggest he did not believe that the <a href="/wiki/Poglavnik" title="Poglavnik">Poglavnik</a> would have sanctioned such actions.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBiondich2007a43-106">[102]</a> Although Stepinac was firmly opposed to the idea of Ustaše to establish a concentration camp within the borders of the Đakovo Bishop's domain, the <a href="/wiki/%C4%90akovo_concentration_camp" class="mw-redirect" title="Đakovo concentration camp">Đakovo concentration camp</a> was established in the deserted flour mill owned by the <a href="/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Archdiocese_of_%C4%90akovo-Osijek" class="mw-redirect" title="Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Đakovo-Osijek">Diocese of Đakovo</a> on 1 December 1941.<a href="#cite_note-159">[155]</a> On the other hand, Phayer writes, "it is impossible to believe that Stepinac and the Vatican did not know that the Ustasha murders amounted to genocide", given the "repression and terrorism of the Ustasha regime were without parallel in the history of Southeastern Europe".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPhayer200038-160">[156]</a> Stepinac clearly knew of the May 1941 Glina massacre, and early on that the Ustaše state was sending Jews, Serbs and others to concentration camps. Initially, Stepinac did not oppose these deportations of Jews and others to concentration camps as a matter of principle, but pleaded they be carried out "humanely", by proposing to Pavelić, on 21 July 1941, the introduction of "some particulars to mitigate the procedure: a) for people to be sent to camp in such a way to allow them to prepare what would be the most essential, to allow them to arrange their most urgent obligations both to their families and their jobs; b) for transport not to be in crowded sealed railway cars, especially to distant places; c) to give internees enough food; d) to provide those who are ill with medical treatment; e) to allow the most necessary food to be sent to them, and enable them to correspond with their families.".<a href="#cite_note-161">[157]</a> After the release of left-wing activist Ante Ciliga from Jasenovac in January 1943, Stepinac requested a meeting with him to learn about what was occurring at the camp.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEDujmović1991104–105-162">[158]</a> After seven Slovene priests were killed at Jasenovac, Stepinac wrote to Pavelić on 24 February 1943, saying:<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001400-163">[159]</a> <blockquote>This is a shameful blot and crime which cries to heaven for revenge, as the whole Jasenovac camp is a shameful fault for the Independent State of Croatia ... the entire public, and especially the relatives of the killed priests, ask for compensation and satisfaction and ask that the killers, who are the greatest misfortune for Croatia, be brought before a court of justice.</blockquote> These were still private protest letters. Although later in 1942 and 1943, Stepinac started to speak out more openly against the Ustaše genocides, this was after most of the genocides were already committed, and it became increasingly clear the Nazis and Ustaše will be defeated. Additionally, Stepinac never publicly condemned the numerically greatest Ustaše genocide, that against the Serbs,<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001555-98">[94]</a> and Stepinac continued to support until the very end the Ustaše state that had committed these crimes. Addressing defenders of Stepinac's more private approach, Ivo Goldstein notes that "relatively more persecuted Jews were saved when high church dignitaries openly, energetically and in a principled manner opposed this persecution – as in France (especially the Archbishops of Toulouse and Lyon), the Netherlands, Italy and Denmark, and for a time even in Germany itself. Catholic bishops in Slovakia strongly opposed Nazi demands for radical deportations and thus saved the lives of many converted Jews, and the Orthodox Metropolitan Stefan in Sofia, by tireless public defense of Jewish lives, played a fundamental role in preventing even one Jew from being deported to the Nazi camps from Bulgaria.<a href="#cite_note-164">[160]</a>". <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Deportations">Deportations</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Aloysius_Stepinac&action=edit&section=14" title="Edit section: Deportations">edit</a>]</div> Stepinac again wrote to Pavelić on 21 July 1941 in the wake of mass deportations of Jews and Serbs to concentration camps, stating he was sure that Pavelić was not aware of the atrocities, and that others might not be willing to tell him about them. He wrote that this situation meant there was an even greater obligation on Stepinac to bring them to Pavelić's attention. Referring to Jews as "non-Aryans", Stepinac wrote: "I hear from many quarters that non-Aryans are being treated inhumanely and cruelly during deportations to concentration camps, and in the camps themselves; moreover, that children, the elderly and the sick are not exempt from such treatment." Stepinac urged Pavelić that some things be undertaken "in the direction of easing the procedure: a) that they be sent to the camps in such a way that they be able to prepare the most necessary things, that they can arrange their most urgent obligations to family and service; b) that dispatch is not carried out in overcrowded sealed wagons, especially not to remote places; c) that internees are provided with sufficient food; d) that patients are provided with medical care; e) to allow the dispatch of essential foodstuffs and to facilitate correspondence with families."<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEGoldstein2018572-165">[161]</a> Having heard that some of the deportees were recent converts to Catholicism, he had a duty to show greater concern regarding them. He asked that "humane and Christian consideration ... be shown especially to weak old people, young and innocent children, and the sick." According to Biondich, it is highly likely that Stepinac shared these concerns with the Vatican.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBiondich2007a43-106">[102]</a> Goldstein, on the other hand, notes that in his letter to Pavelić, Stepinac did not question the deportation of Jews to concentration camps, instead only urged that these be carried out more "humanely".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEGoldstein2018572-165">[161]</a> When deportation of Croatian Jews began, Stepinac and the papal envoy <a href="/wiki/Giuseppe_Marcone" title="Giuseppe Marcone">Giuseppe Marcone</a> protested to <a href="/wiki/Andrija_Artukovic" class="mw-redirect" title="Andrija Artukovic">Andrija Artukovic</a>.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPhayer200085-166">[162]</a> Pope <a href="/wiki/Pius_XII" class="mw-redirect" title="Pius XII">Pius XII</a> had dispatched Marcone as Apostolic Visitor to Croatia, reportedly in order to assist Stepinac and the Croatian Episcopate in "combating the evil influence of neo-pagan propaganda which could be exercised in the organization of the new state".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPreziosi2011-167">[163]</a> Marcone served as Nuncio in all but name.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPhayer200032-103">[99]</a> Mancone reported to Rome on the deteriorating conditions for Croatian Jews, made representations on behalf of the Jews to Croatian officials, and transported Jewish children to safety in neutral Turkey. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Forced_conversions">Forced conversions</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Aloysius_Stepinac&action=edit&section=15" title="Edit section: Forced conversions">edit</a>]</div> In a circular letter to his clergy, Stepinac initially insisted that conversion had to be done freely, and only after religious instruction. While this and subsequent regulations were designed to protect "the church hierarchy against charges of promoting forced conversions", they also indicated "the church was willing to cooperate with regime's forced conversions, provided the canonical rules were followed".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001539-8">[8]</a> On 3 December 1941, Stepinac sent the pope a report, wherein he notes "the best prospects exist for the conversions".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001541-168">[164]</a> However, the church's instructions were ignored by the Ustaše authorities. The authorities not only conducted forcible conversions, but on occasion they used the prospect of conversion as a means to gather Serbs together so they could kill them, which is what occurred at Glina. Some Serbs demanded that the local Catholic clergy convert them in order to save their lives.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETanner1997151-169">[165]</a> Later Stepinac advised individual priests to admit Orthodox believers to the Catholic Church if their lives were in danger, such that this conversion had no validity, allowing them to return to their faith once the danger passed.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKrešić200794-7">[7]</a> On 18 May 1943, Stepinac wrote a letter to the pope, in which he estimated 240.000 conversions to date (despite some disputes Tomasevich states this letter is authentic<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001541-168">[164]</a>). The Catholic Church in Croatia has also had to contend with criticism of what some have seen as a passive stance towards the Ustaša policy of <a href="/wiki/Religious_conversion" title="Religious conversion">religious conversion</a> whereby some Serbs – but not the intelligentsia element – were able to escape other persecution by adopting the Catholic faith.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTECornwell2008253-92">[88]</a> According to Cornwell, through his role in the forced conversions, Stepinac displayed a "moral dislocation" that "endorsed a contempt for religious freedom tantamount to complicity with the violence".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTECornwell2008255-15">[15]</a> While Stepinac did suspend a number of priests, including Ivo Guberina and Zvonko Brekalo, he only had the authority to do so within his own diocese; he had no power to suspend other priests or bishops outside of Zagreb, as that power was reserved for the Vatican.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPhayer200086-170">[166]</a> Due to the arbitrary nature of justice in the NDH and the absence of proper systems for complaint and redress, people such as Stepinac developed an approach of intervening personally with senior government figures on behalf of victims.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001350-171">[167]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading5"><h5 id="Other_crimes_against_the_Serbian_Orthodox_Church">Other crimes against the Serbian Orthodox Church</h5>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Aloysius_Stepinac&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section: Other crimes against the Serbian Orthodox Church">edit</a>]</div> In addition to forced conversions, Tomasevich describes other elements of the "Ustaše massive attack against the Serbian Orthodox Church".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001528-172">[168]</a> The Ustaše killed 157 Orthodox priests, among them 3 Serb Orthodox bishops (cutting the throat of the bishop of Banja Luka and killing the archbishop of Sarajevo),<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001528-172">[168]</a> while they jailed and tortured the Orthodox archbishop of Zagreb, <a href="/wiki/Dositej_Vasi%C4%87" title="Dositej Vasić">Dositej Vasić</a>. The Ustaše expelled to Serbia 327 Orthodox priests and one bishop, while 2 other bishops and 12 priests left on their own.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001529-173">[169]</a> Thus 85% of the Orthodox priests in the Independent State of Croatia were either killed or expelled by the Ustaše, in order to "leave the Orthodox population without spiritual leadership so the Ustašas' policy of forced or fear-induced conversions to Catholicism would be easier to carry out".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001529-173">[169]</a> The Ustaše destroyed and desecrated numerous Orthodox Churches,<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001529-173">[169]</a> forbade the Cyrillic script and Julian calendar (both used in the Orthodox Church), even prohibited the term "Serbian Orthodox Church".

Here Tomasevich states "there are serious shortcomings in Stepinac's statements and actions toward the Ustashe regime and its genocidal actions against the Serbs and the Serbian Orthodox Church".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001564-178">[174]</a> Thus, despite the Ustashe genocide against the Serbs, the ethnic cleansing and forced conversions, the killings and expulsions of most Orthodox priests, the destruction and desecration of many Orthodox Churches, "neither Archbishop Stepinac, nor any other Catholic bishop in the state ... uttered one word of public protest" against these crimes.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001537-125">[121]</a> "This was not a mere oversight. It was a deliberate policy" as stated by the papal legate Abbot Marcone, when he wrote in 1943 that given the fact that most guerrillas were "schismatics" (i.e. Eastern-Orthodox Serbs) "our Croatian episcopate does not have any special motive to protest publicly against the government in favor of the schismatics".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001538-179">[175]</a> In Stepinac's case this was compounded by his "dim view of Orthodoxy and thought that an unbridgeable gulf existed between Croats and Serbs".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001564-178">[174]</a> Additionally, given both Stepinac's and the Vatican's desire to see a Catholic state in Croatia and have a legate there, "the Church had to refrain from publicly criticizing the government's policies".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001564-178">[174]</a> Tomasevich concludes "the policy of the Croatian Catholic Church hierarchy and the Vatican of not publicly condemning the Ustasha regime's actions during the war will probably remain controversial. From the standpoint of humanity, justice and common decency, it cannot be defended. But Stepinac was not the only one responsible for it, the Vatican was too".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001564-178">[174]</a> <a href="/wiki/Stella_Alexander" title="Stella Alexander">Stella Alexander</a>, author of The Triple Myth, a sympathetic biography of Stepinac, writes about him that <blockquote>Two things stand out. He feared Communism above all (especially above fascism); and he found it hard to grasp that anything beyond the boundaries of Croatia, always excepting the <a href="/wiki/Holy_See" title="Holy See">Holy See</a>, was quite real. ... He lived in the midst of apocalyptic events, bearing responsibilities which he had not sought. ... In the end one is left feeling that he was not quite great enough for his role.

He made repeated private interventions in individual cases, he refused to allow converted Jews to wear the yellow star in church, and he forbad military chaplains to administer the ustaSa oath if a crossed dagger and revolver were lying in front of the crucifix. Eventually he arranged for about 7,000 children, who were either orphans or had lost their families, to be accepted into Catholic homes, but forbad the clergy to baptize them into the Catholic Church.

The Court appointed two distinguished advocates to defend Stepinac – Dr. Politeo and Dr. Katicic.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEAlexander197884-203">[199]</a> Stepinac defense acknowledged he paid courtesy calls on Pavelić and other Ustaše leaders as soon as they arrived, but this could be considered normal for the head of the Catholic Church. However, Alexander notes that Stepinac's tone of welcome to Ustaše authorities could have left the clergy in no doubt that they were expected to cooperate with them.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEAlexander197880-116">[112]</a> Alexander claims his lawyer defended him more convincingly on some other accusations, stating that Stepinac's control over the censored Catholic press had been largely formal, and that he had no control outside his own diocese.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEAlexander197880-116">[112]</a> When he was appointed NDH military vicar, Stepinac's two deputies, both prominent Ustaše supporters, had already been appointed and it would've been virtually impossible for him to remove them.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEAlexander197880-116">[112]</a> He had accepted Ustaše archives without examining them, and stowed them in the archbishopric, but later handed them over to the Partisans when they came looking for them.

Tomasevich notes that most priests killed in the war's aftermath were not killed because they belonged to a specific religion, but because they were participants in a civil war.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETomasevich2001568–569-207">[203]</a> Stepinac was arrested on 18 September, and was only given the indictment on the 23rd−meaning his defense counsel <a href="/wiki/Ivo_Politeo" title="Ivo Politeo">Ivo Politeo</a> was given only six to seven days to prepare.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEO'Brien194780–89-208">[204]</a> Stepinac's defense counsel was only allowed to call twenty witnesses—while the prosecution was allowed to call fifty-eight, most from outside Stepinac's diocese. The President of the Court refused to hear fourteen witnesses for the defense.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTERamet1990189-209">[205]</a> On 11 October 1946, the court found Stepinac guilty of collaboration with the fascist Ustaše regime.<a href="#cite_note-210">[206]</a> He was sentenced to 16 years in prison. He served five years in the prison at Lepoglava until he was released in a conciliatory gesture by Tito, on condition that he either retire to Rome or be confined to his home parish of Krašić.

In conclusion, Turudić stated that the verdict has been revised after nearly 70 years which has a profound significance for the history of the Croatian people.<a href="#cite_note-index1-17">[17]</a> This annulment is, however, highly controversial due to its overtly nationalist Croatian sentiments, the fact that lower court (County Court of Zagreb) annuls the verdict of the Supreme Court, the fact that the whole process of annulment was over in only six days,<a href="#cite_note-Veritas-219">[215]</a> prosecution was on the same side with the defense (they did not appeal on the annulment) and the judge, who is openly anticommunist,<a href="#cite_note-Večernji1-220">[216]</a> obviously made his decision before the start of the trial.<a href="#cite_note-Večernji2-221">[217]</a> Thus, this annulment can be seen as an example of a <a href="/wiki/Show_trial" title="Show trial">show trial</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Novosti-222">[218]</a> The Simon Wiesenthal Center strongly condemned the annulment, stating Stepinac "openly supported the regime which committed mass murder, and afforded them spiritual comfort and support...

The beatification re-ignited old divisions between Serbs, who are mainly <a href="/wiki/Eastern_Orthodox_Church" title="Eastern Orthodox Church">Eastern Orthodox</a>, and Croats. Shortly prior, the Paris-based <a href="/wiki/Simon_Wiesenthal_Center" title="Simon Wiesenthal Center">Simon Wiesenthal Center</a> requested that the Holy See delay the beatification until the case was given further study; the ask served only to infuriate Croatian officials as well as the Vatican.<a href="#cite_note-stanley-266">[262]</a> According to Ljubojević, Gavrilović and Perica, the mythology regarding Stepinac was created during the <a href="/wiki/Cold_War" title="Cold War">Cold War</a> and newly independent <a href="/wiki/Croatia" title="Croatia">Croatia</a> with the cardinal's beatification in 1998. Their assessment is that this myth positioned Stepinac as the primary character in Croatian mythology, crediting him as a hero and martyr who was politically impartial. This myth alleges that Stepinac resisted all forms of totalitarianism in equal measure.

Juraj Batelja, the official Church <a href="/wiki/Postulator" title="Postulator">Postulator</a> advocating Stepinac's canonization, has for years selectively used parts of the diary for his books, without other researchers having an opportunity to see the original text. Despot notes that Stepinac did not write the diary as a private person, but as the Archbishop, and the diary is an extremely important source for Croatian history.
