Judaism and the Vatican by Vicomte Leon de Poncins is a radical critique of the Jewish literature on Christian anti-Semitism. This book is also meant to serve as an explication for the events which took place during the Second Vatican Council regarding the position of the church on the Jews and Judaism. According to de Poncins certain powerful Jewish forces (backed by organizations such as the freemasonic B'nai B'rith) were able to infiltrate the thinking of Vatican prelates and Roman Catholic bishops to force a church decision on the "Jewish question" and to re-configure traditional Christian teaching. It is well known that the Gospel accounts of the Passion of Christ (in particular the Gospel of Matthew) do not show favorably for the principal Jewish leaders at the time. Indeed, the Roman official Pontius Pilate was said to have not wanted to murder Christ and later to have washed his hands, symbolically cleansing himself of the murder, while the crowd demanded that Christ be crucified. Upon crucifying Christ, the crowd cried out "His blood be on us and all our children" (which some interpreted to mean a curse upon the Jewish nation - regarded by certain fanatics as "the deicide people"). In addition, certain church fathers including especially Saint John Chrysostom, Saint Augustine, and Saint Pope Gregory the Great were known to teach the doctrine that the Jews served as a "witness people" given their failure to convert and recognize the Messiah. Many Jewish scholars including Jules Isaac (whose writings de Poncins examines) have questioned the historical validity of the Gospel accounts, arguing for the exoneration of the Jewish leaders at the time of Christ (as well as the condemnation of the Romans). Jules Isaac in particular, challenges nearly 2000 years of Christian teaching by calling into question many of the familiar Christian formulas and blaming Christians for anti-Semitism among Europeans. Indeed, individuals such as Jules Isaac may have helped to sway the minds of the Catholic bishops (such as Cardinal Bea who led a progressive faction in pushing for the church statement on the Jews and Judaism). Conservative forces within the church as well as those among the Arab states (including many Arab Christians) argued against this measure and were able to get the official statement amended so as not to mention the "deicide" charge specifically. De Poncins attempts to demonstrate how the church's position has changed with regard to the Jews as well as how anti-Semitism has arisen among the European nations. Indeed, it was during the modern era when both the dictators Hitler and Stalin sought radical solutions to "the Jewish Question" involving mass murder. However, according to de Poncins, this must be considered within its historical context and within the context of Jewish-Gentile relations. In modern times, an entirely new issue has arisen, that of the involvement of the Roman Catholic Church and in particular the pope, Pius XII, with the Nazi and Fascist regimes. Certain Jewish writers especially have called into question the activities of Pius XII during this time. However, by bringing up dead issues and besieging the American people with an endless series of books detailing Christian involvement in the Holocaust, the Jews have been able to further their own control within government. Indeed, many Catholic writers and de Poncins himself have written exonerating the Roman Pontiff of all wrongdoing. Thus, Jewish and Roman Catholic relations remain strained. Despite the attempted patch-up job done at the Second Vatican Council, it can be argued that Judaism and Christianity remain fundamentally irreconcilable in a way that Christianity and other religions (e.g. Islam) do not.
