(for the official Catholic position against Nazi racism in the 1930s see Mit brennender Sorge).

In the 20th century, its central importance to Nazi racism fundamentally discredits it.

After 1933, however, Lenel-in spite of his international fame, his status as a veteran and his old age-became a victim of Nazi racism.

I think he was cautiously trying to set up a complete racist policy, competitive with Nazi racism.

In 1933 he published two books criticizing Nazi racism, and was forced to flee from Austria following the Anschluss in 1938.

To equate this with Nazi racism is sickening.

At the end of the war, the full scale of Nazi racism was exposed.

As for the Jews, the main targets of Nazi racism, they face a very different sort of problem today, one that is partly of their own making.
