i'm a catholic i dispute many claims in this article but the catholicity of the ustase is not one of them come on wustenfuchs the ustase undeniably has a bad image and would be condemned i would imagine by of the world so i understand the desire to want to distance them from the catholic church but to do so would be a lie almost as big a lie as the war myths reiterated in this article the ustasa had franciscan monks as prison guards for crying out loud they were thoroughly catholic regardless if they allowed muslims into their ranks during war time
