As a leading figure of Catholic nationalism , Father Julio Meinvielle embodied a “specifically Argentinian variant of anti-Semitism” according to Uki Goñi . In his anti-Semitic bestseller El judío (The Jew) in 1936 he declared the Jews to be the enemies of Christianity, whom "we Christians ... must love according to Christ's command to love your enemy". In Hacía la cristiandad in 1940 he took the view that National Socialism corresponded to the divine will and represented a "purification". "Hitlerism ... paradoxically, the antechamber of Catholicism". The Axis powers have the task of destroying all "anti-Christian structures".
Best-selling author contributed his works to the fact that in the 1940s in Argentina the widespread attitude strengthened, Argentina could regime NS form an alliance with the due to its Hispanic and Catholic tradition without sacrificing the Nazi typical racism to take over .
