Susan Sarandon has really rubbed America’s largest Catholic civil rights organization up the wrong way. The actress raised eyebrows the other day when she referred to Pope Benedict as a “Nazi”, and the Catholic League is now lashing out at her. The league claims that what Susie said was positively obscene, showing “unparalleled ignorance”.
As a young boy growing up in Germany, Joseph Ratzinger (Pope Benedict) was a member of the Nazi Youth. According to the Catholic League, Susan got the next part of the story a bit mixed up though. You see, all 14-year-old German boys were conscripted to the Nazi Youth at that time – but young Joseph actually refused to go to youth meetings and effectively deserted the Hitler Youth.
Which is precisely why Jews today regard him as a friend, not as an enemy, points out the currently outraged Bill Donohue, President of the Catholic League. Can’t wait to hear Susan’s comeback.
