The [[Jews]] have suffered a long history of persecution in many different lands. But more egregiously in countries that embraced communism (ie; Soviet Union) or National Socialism (Nazi Germany). It must be noted though that severe Jewish mistreatment (generally called the "pogroms") started well before the [[Russian Revolution]] - for Broadway's take on it, see "''Fiddler on the Roof''"

In 1492 the Roman Catholic Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella of Castile told the Jews to leave Spain or convert to Christianity. Those who remained and converted to Christianity were often tortured by the [[Spanish Inquisition]] in order to test the sincerity of their conversion. Much the same happened in Portugal from December 1496. In 1504 the Roman Catholic mob murdered up to five thousand Jews.

The 1933-1945 Nazi regime in Germany, praised by Alois Hudal a Rome-based Catholic bishop, who in 1937 published the book ''The Foundations of National Socialism'', instigated the [[Holocaust]] murdering six million Jews by the time of liberation in 1945. After liberation an Italy based network of Catholic clerics, including Alois Hudal, helped many Nazis escape justice to South America.
