The Chrisy Moore musical version of the words of Pastor Niemöller:
When the Nazis came for the communists,
I remained silent;
I was not a communist.
When they locked up the social democrats,
I remained silent;
I was not a social democrat.
When they came for the trade unionists,
I did not speak out;
I was not a trade unionist.
When they came for the Jews,
I remained silent;
I wasn't a Jew.
When they came for me,
there was no one left to speak out.
It is quite appropriate in light of todays discoveries...

We all seem to be posting music.
Pastor Niemöller's words are one of my favourite's to use when anyone seeks to silence me. Sometimes the uncomfortable needs to be said and listened to.

James - We do and I am looking forward to the translation :-)
JHL - I totally agree, some things just have to be said. I won't take the easy option either, if something has to be said I will make my voice heard!
