On another visit he told me a story about a rabbi who as a young man wanted to save all the Jews in the world.

He saved more than 1,200 Jews by hiding them in forests.

The clandestine purpose was trying to save a hundred Jews.

They also argue that he could not have saved Jews by warning them anyway.

They could have saved a million European Jews, but no.

For these people who lost their lives saving Jews, I feel responsible, too.

A pacifist by nature, he stayed away from military action and was particularly active in saving Jews.

His actions were not limited to saving Jews but others, such as communists and homosexuals.

Some have called his efforts "exceptional in how he saved Jews from Germany."

Stepinac was involved directly and indirectly in efforts to save Jews from persecution.
