Pope exonerates Jews for death of Jesus
Benedict XVI's theological analysis contradicts traditional Catholic interpretations which have been used throughout history to justify anti-Semitism.

My Comment
The Popes have been hating the Jews. As if the Jewish rulers who killed Jesus by proxy represented the entire Jewish nation. Well, Jesus was a Jew and so were his disciples and the whole base of Christianity —Jews.
The Jews who killed Jesus did what every one in power throughout the world has done before and after Jesus--kill all possible opposition. It had nothing to do with religion. It was purely power.
So, Joe or Benedict is not doing anything special. He is just putting things in perspective. However, Benedict should also condemn his darn predecessors for instigating hate against the Jews in order to take the focus off their corruption of mixing paganism with the teachings of Christ.
When is the Pope going come clean in all of that? If Benedict was really serious about his findings, he would admit that the Catholic Church has been wrong.
An apology to the Jews community is simple overdue. That would be Christ-like.
