You can’t really compare the Vatican to WW2. But if you did, imagine if the axis powers still existed and got to keep most of their territories while telling their neighbours they just wanted peace but also promoting their generals and crimes as heroic and necessary.
Once again, you can’t really compare these two. Especially since all the modern countries that descend from the axis powers relinquished the territories they conquered and have often even payed compensations to their former victims.
By that metric neither does the pre Vatican II church before 1965
I am not to comment on that more than: that comparison doesn’t make sense.

This applies to all 3 major axis powers
This applies to Japan
None of the axis powers exists.
And they are widely criticised, like they should be.

I agree. But they absolutely exist and do the thing that you said nobody does.

Not really.
What did I say nobody does?
