Preface
Pg. 10.
In October 1901, the Jesuits return to Zagreb, although Archbishop Haulik wanted to bring them back 40 years ago, but the City Council opposed him, with the explanation that they were afraid of possible street riots due to the arrival of the “Jesuits.” That Jesuit strain was so hated by the Zagreb purgers 125 years ago (they also have a square in Zagreb today). Now they are returning to assume the role of the backbone and lifeblood of the realization of the Clerical program of the century, established at Stadler’s “First Croatian Catholic Congress,” a Popish assembly held a year earlier in the House of the Croatian Falcon in Zagreb.

THE FIRST VICTIM OF CLERICALISM – From Vidovdan 1914 to the May Declaration 1917.
Pg. 43-44.
The point of view of Zagreb Archbishop Posilović, who tried to revive the ideal of his predecessor, was defended in the Croatian Parliament in 1899 by Dr. Ante Bauer, Professor of the Faculty of Theology in Zagreb, the future successor of Archbishop Posilović. He said, among other things: “Against the Jesuits was the same spirit, which is the enemy of the Church and every positive religion. It is a spirit that is against every human and divine authority. That spirit gave birth to revolutions, and the fruit of that spirit is also hydra of Anarchism.” Dr. Ante Bauer must not have wanted to know that the Croatian Parliament in 1861 was resolutely against entrusting any teaching to the Jesuits. The President of that school board was the famous Priest Franjo Rački, the greatest scientific value of the Croatian 19th century. And it’s no wonder that Rački saw it that way, because his close friend Bishop Strossmayer had the same views. When the foundation of the new university in Zagreb was being prepared, Strossmayer wrote to Račko on February 22, 1874 regarding the future Professors of the Theological faculty and this: “It would be of great harm to our nation if Jesuitism were to become established in the theological faculty in Zagreb. Infidelity and Jesuitism are just as dangerous to our people. Look, please, to prevent at all costs Jesuit appointment. These people cover up all their insolence with fanaticism.” And a year after January 6, 1875, he wrote to the same Račko: “Few of us think how much danger lies in Jesuitism for us.” Despite the fact that Dr. Ante Bauer knew what they were for dirty and shameful reasons, the Jesuits had to leave their Monasteries in Požega in 1871, in Dubrovnik in 1887, in Zadar in 1893, he marks the spirit of Strossmayer and Rački as well as all progressive patriots, who opposed it as “hostile to the Church and to every religion.” While in 1860, 1861 and 1874 gave the cultural efforts of the Croats the basic feature of two Preachers of the unity of the South Slavic peoples, who tried to remove all the obstacles that stood in the way, especially their with a religiously tolerant attitude, until 1899 and 1900, Archbishop Posilović and Professor Ante Bauer, who after a decade will be assigned to the same Posilović as his Archbishop-Coadjutor, represent completely contradictory tendencies. Although the public resented this effort by Archbishop Posilović, ban Khuen-Hedervary eventually granted the request of Archbishop Posilović, who was supported by powerful interveners in Vienna and Rome. The expression of the anti-Jesuit attitude is represented by the brochure of Hrvatko Hrvatović, (apparently the pseudonym of a Priest from Strossmayer’s diocese as well as his four “supporters”): Jesuit Propaganda in Croatia. “Hrvatska is the Word of the Croatian people.” Hrvatovic firmly opposed entrusting the education of the youth to the Jesuits, as Strossmayer and Racki once thought and did.

A WOLF IN LAMB’S SKIN – The May Declaration and its true meaning in relation to its origins and its goals.
Pg. 80-82.
Pope Pius X died on August 20, 1914. At the time of his death, the Pope was convinced that nothing in the world would be able to prevent the complete collapse of France, and then of little Serbia, and that the German-Austrian arms would win a complete victory, “His honest but a limited spirit saw in the German performance of Paris only after a punishment, which God sent to the ‘eldest daughter of the Church,’ who caused him the most misery during his Pontificate. … Pius X saw in the Protestant troops of Germany a tool that God himself had chosen to use to punish France. … Only (the defeated French) will understand that they should once again become obedient sons of the Church.”[1] His successor was the Bolognese Cardinal Giacomo della Chiesa, who took the name Benedict XV. In this change one can look for explanations for certain internal and external Ecclesiastical-Political changes, which were noticed very quickly. The new Pope was a Diplomat by profession and knew what difficulties his interventions in favor of peace, which were discussed by his predecessor, would encounter. In the Yugoslav countries of the Habsburg Monarchy there were also changed understandings regarding the internal and external policy of the Monarchy. Especially since it became known that, on the one hand, the Yugoslav Committee was founded in London in May 1915, and in America the Yugoslav People’s Defense in Antofagasta. Both institutions were clearly opposed to major allies declared for the unification of Yugoslavia into one state. The issue of Italy's entry into the war was already in its final phase. All this had the effect that the first that there was a sobering up in Slovenia and that the representatives of the largest Slovenian Party, the Clerical Party, began to change their conceptions regarding the end of the war under the influence of Dr. Janez Krek. New orientations are also noticeable among Croatian Clerical staff. The first Slovenians turn to the Vatican and the Pope. But this in no way marked a break with the Monarchy. “At the time when Italy’s military intervention was already anticipated,” writes a Slovenian Cleric to show how much Slovenian Clerics are responsible for the establishment of Yugoslavia, “several Political leaders met at the Bishop of Ljubljana; Dr. A. B. Jeglič (Dr. Korošec, Dr. Krek and others, brothers-in-law), Bishop Dr. Mahnič from Krk and Dalmatian People’s Deputies Dr. Dulibić (Croatian) and Dr. Vukovie (Serbian). They drafted an extensive memorandum to Pope Pius X,[2] in which they expressed the desire of the Slovenians for the orientation of Vatican diplomacy and Croats to remain together in one and the same state, no matter what it was. The intention of this memorandum was to warn the world in advance through Vatican diplomacy that the Slovenes and Croats would by no means want Italy to tear off a part of the territory of which Slovenes or Croats live in. Later events confirmed the bad premonitions of the Slovenes.”[3]
The fact that four of those present were spiritual persons, and the fifth, Dr. Susteršić, President of the Clerical “Slavic People’s Party.” Therefore, it is no wonder that Slavic Clerics associate their reorientation in these fateful moments with the political orientation of the Vatican, which in fact fundamentally changed after the death of Pope Pius X. Or, in other words, just as the Episcopate in the Yugoslav countries changed its orientation in connection with the outbreak war with the one in the Vatican, he is still trying to win over the Vatican for his Catholic views. The entire course of events that has taken place since Italy’s entry into the war and the continuity of Clerical relations with the Viennese Camarilla cast serious doubt on the idea that the memorandum stated that the Slovenes wanted to remain together with the Croats “in one and the same state, no matter what it was.” In their eyes, as well as in the eyes of Vatican diplomacy, that country was only Catholic Austria. There can be no doubt about that.
It should be said that, independently of the action of the Slovenian Clerics, there was also a Croatian one, which was once again led by a Slovenian, the Bishop of Krk, A. Mahnič, who warmed to trialism even before the death of the Austrian heir to the throne Ferdinand, giving him the necessary information, as he says about it in his memories, one of the initiators of the Croatian Clerical action in the Vatican, Dr. Fran Binički.[4]
Dr. Fran Binički was previously an associate of Bishop Mahnič. At the very beginning of the war, that Cleric and Frank wanted that two members of the Clerical Seniorate, distinguished Clerical pioneers who came from the Clerical academic association “Domagoja,” Dr. Rudolf Eckert, et al. Petar Rogulja, went to Berlin to develop an action aimed at establishing an independent Croatia. After some hesitation Dr. Binički suggested to these two that they abdicate to Benedict XV., and in the end they decided that Bishop Mahnič should do it. At the first meeting, where the involvement of the Vatican in Croatian affairs was discussed, in addition to Bishop Mahnič, the Provincial of the Conventuals, Father Jozo Milošević, O.F.M. and others were present, Fran Binički, et al. The meeting was held at the Rijeka Capuchins. When the matter matured, it was read at a new meeting, which was also attended by Don Frano Bulić, Dr. Janez Krek, and old Dr. Matko Laginja, the only Layman among the Priests, and prepared a memorial titled to Benedict XV. The monument appeals to the Pope to advocate Croatian interests at the future peace conference, believing that a representative of the Holy See will be invited to it. The memorial was signed on behalf of all by Bishop Mahnič himself, and it was taken to Rome by Father J. Milošević, O.F.M. and Father M. Škrivanić. “The Pope received the envoys very graciously and promised that he would do everything he could for the Croatian people if they were allowed to attend the peace conference. On the way, the Pope mentioned Father Milošević that Russia had betrayed the Croats…”[5]
All this was happening in the first half of 1915. With the entry of Italy into the war, the relations of the Croatian and Slovenian Clergy with the Vatican, which now had the Pope-Diplomat, Benedict XV, as its head. Before his eyes were constantly the interests of the Catholic Church, which had to be secured through the future peace between the warring parties. Hence his great interest in all efforts that would lead to peace. In the first half of 1917, it was as if this issue was ripe for the Vatican. That’s why he decided to take a more energetic step.
When Benedict XV took action for peace between the warring parties in 1917, he never dreamed that Austria would disappear as a great power. Undoubtedly, the Vatican could only deal with such a conception of the Slavic Bishops and Priests, as well as the Croatian ones, which in no way interfered with the Sovereign prerogatives of the Apostolic King. It is certainly certain that Benedict XV in all his diplomatic conceptions, he had in mind exclusively the strengthening of Catholicism, according to which the restoration of Catholic Poland, the liberation of Belgium, the removal of Russian influence in the Balkans would also be visibly expressed in the reformed Austria, in which the Catholic Yugoslavs would also be satisfied. Hence the matching of the Vatican as well as the Croatian and Slavic Clerical understandings in the matters of the restored Austria, which the trialist Ferdinand’s plan should prolong the life of. This Papal peace saved Austria, and through it, its threatened positions in Italy and in the world.
The author of the Papal note, addressed to the warring leaders on August 1, 1917, was the General of the Jesuit Order Ledochowski, S.J. The mediator with the Germans was the then Nuncio in Munich Eugenio Pacelli. The final answer was negative, because Wilson determined that the Pope was in fact returning to the state before the war, which is by no means a guarantee of a just peace.[6] It is not without significance that this effort of the Vatican Curia coincides with the effort of a certain number of Slovenian politicians, manifested in the Vienna Parliament on May 30, 1917. Their declaration was intended to mark the demands of the Yugoslavs in connection with the new arrangement of the Monarchy based on the principle of the people and Croatian state law under the Habsburg dynasty. There is no doubt that they are completely closer. Unfortunately for us, this would be nothing else, “but a machination by it in order to serve the policy of Germanic expansion into the Balkans.”[7]

RIPENING BEFORE HARVEST
Pg. 499.
“The reserved but well-informed ‘Obzor’ explained the characteristics of Pavlo Butorac that must have been relevant in his appointment. ‘The new Bishop of Boka Kotorska enjoys strong sympathy among the Croatian public in Boka Kotorska, because in national issues he acted in accordance with the people’s interests and aspirations. Bishop Butorac is known as an active Catholic worker, and he cooperates in K.A. When an action was once taken by Dr. Gavrančić, to ban the Jesuit Order in this country, Professor Butorac drafted a very significant declaration of the Boke Clergy, which met with a general response from the Clergy in Boka Kotorska, and thus prevented the attempt of certain circles, abusing the old Bishop Dr. Uccellini, to separate from the general Catholic compactness in that matter to the Boko Kotor Diocese.”

TERROR AND CATHOLICISM – “Holy — God’s — Christ’s — Militant — Croatia.”
Pg. 693-94.
An excellent connoisseur of the circumstances regarding the attitude of the Clergy during the very struggles in Bosnia and Herzegovina against the National Liberation movement, Publicist Nikola Miličević, gave a full picture long before the complete liberation of Yugoslavia, in the organ of the JNOF for Bosnia and Herzegovina, “Oslobođenje,” in February 1945, which was published in the liberated territory. Through the observations of this Publicist, a difficult and gruesome reality emerges, which even historical science will record as other worldly when compared to the medieval religious wars. “But if the flock protested, if it was outraged by the brutal slaughter of innocent people, the shepherds did not protest. Nowhere and never during these three years of terrible slavery of our people to the occupier and his helpers, the Ustasha and Chetniks, did the Church authorities rise up against the executioner’s work Clergy who worked against the most basic interests of their flock. They put themselves in the service of the occupier, body and soul. They were no different from that part of the Catholic Clergy who, through the Franciscan Highschool in Široki Brijeg and the Jesuit Highschool in Travnik, indoctrinated entire generations of Croatian youth with the obscurantist spirit of religious and national fanaticism and hatred. A large number of Ustasha leaders in Zagreb, Jasenovac and Stara Gradiška graduated from those schools. The knife that slaughtered hundreds of thousands of innocent Serbian victims, patriotic Jews, Muslims and Croats, who did their best to save their honor of the Croatian people, is the same one who insidiously fell into the hands of the Friar’s protege Nevistić so that in Zagreb’s Đačk if they ended the life of the advanced Croatian youth Ljubičica, who even then fought against what came in 1941. That knife was sharpened for decades by a large number of Jesuits and secular Priests with notorious obscurantists and Serb cannibals with Archbishop Sarić and Stadler at the head. In the last two decades, a significant part of the Bosnian-Herzegovinian Friars, who turned the Monasteries into arsenals of material and spiritual tools of Ustasha and Hitlerism, did not lag behind them in this work. From them, Croatian villages were flooded with the poison of Ustasha and Hitler literature, from them Ustasha and German cannons and machine guns fired deadly fire at our fighters, who died for the freedom, brotherhood and unity of our peoples. They did not distance themselves from a number of Ustasha and Gestapo Agents and Spies in Priest’s clothing, who were later held accountable by our authorities. We, the Croats of Bosnia and Herzegovina, will never forget it. …” [They have.]

IDEOLOGY AND PROPAGANDA — He prayed: “God wouldn't be God if he didn't give the Croatian people NDH.”
Pg. 897-98.
The highest and most learned Ecclesiastical Order, which in Croatia has been on the defensive of Clerical and Separatist Croatian interests for almost half a century, (since 1900!) the Jesuit Order, had also wholeheartedly embraced Pavelić’s NDH. We also know why. In several cases, this book shows the warmth that the Jesuits in Croatia showed for Greater Croatia’s efforts. Apparently in agreement with the plan of their senior and highest elders, not only at the beginning of the NDH, but also earlier, when they were paving and preparing the way for this monstrosity. Directly and indirectly, as the leaders of so many Clerical organizations, in which their influence was overwhelming, or they were under their management. It is not without significance that the so-called Black Pope, the General of the Jesuit Order, Count Vladimir Ledochowski, S.J., founded a separate Croatian Province for the NDH, whereby the highest Jesuit authority recognized the NDH and its creator. And when you know how careful the Jesuits are about their so-called “neutrality,” of course formal and masked, then this Jesuit gesture shows how they were too hasty in Rome when they took such a step. Just as, after the war, the Vatican defends itself and renounces the idea that it recognized the NDH and Pavelić, even though it showed him the highest honors at his reception on May 18, 1941, even though it allowed it to recognize Pavelić's delegate, Dr. N. Rušinović, and then Ervin Prince Lobkowicz, “NDH observer at the Vatican,” to receive Ustasha Youth in uniform, to appoint Bishops during the NDH, to appoint Archbishop Stepinac as Military Vicar “sine titulo” in the “Croatian army.” There is no doubt that it is the merit of General Ledochowsky, S.J.[161] that Pope Pius XII shared the privilege of the steps of the Little Basilica to the Jesuit Church in Zagreb. Namely, the Pope responded to the earnest request of the Provincial of the Society of Jesus in Zagreb, and to the recommendation of Archbishop Stepinac and the General of the Order. The Pope signed this Brief on July 31, 1941. It says, as he found out, “that to that Church, which they call the ‘Croatian National Shrine of the Heart of Jesus’ with complete right, devout believers, not only from distant places, flock to it with love for God, and that they generously pour in to help it with offerings, so that in this way, the ten Priests from the said Congregation can take care of the service of God and meet the needs of the faithful, and that the church itself can be supported and solved by this. …” Describing the interior arrangement of the Church, which has nine altars, and is also rich in Church clothes “which really increase the splendor of the service of God and raise the piety of many believers, who gather in that temple and in which pious associations gather. The Brotherhood of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, the Apostolate of Prayer (or the Crusades?) and many Congregations of Mary, all societies with a good number of members, and no doubt the efforts of the Priests of the Society of Jesus, to whom the Sanctuary is entrusted, have their headquarters in that Zagreb Sanctuary. Having considered all this, an almost certain hope is awakened in Us, that when we raise it to the requested honor, it will become day by day a stronger center of worship that we owe to the Sacred Heart of Jesus in the Croatian regions. …”[162] And indeed—this Little Basilica fully deserved that honor. Because it was and remains the focal point of Croatian Clericalism, or as the Brief called it, the “Croatian National Shrine.” […]
[161] “When Jesuit General, Ledochowski, S.J. died on December 13, 1942, the Clero-Fascist press in the NDH devoted numerous obituaries to him. From them, it is known that his administration was marked by efforts towards the union in Russia and the establishment of the Russian Institute, which Pope Pius XI handed over to the management of the Jesuits. While still an Assistant to Jesuit General, Wernz, S.J., he created autonomy for the Croatian branch of the Jesuit Order (1909), and ‘when the NDH was established, he established a Jesuit religious Province.’” —“Catholic Weekly,” (1942), No. 52. “Vrhbosna,” (1943), No. 42, 711.
