Lessons of the world history speak louder than words.
When the fascists came to Germany, a German pastor, imprisoned in a Nazi concentration camp, Martin Nimeuller said:
"At first the Nazis took the communists. I kept silent because I was not a communist.
Then they took the Jews. I kept silent because I was not a Jew.
Then they took members of organized labor. I kept silent because I was not a trade union member.
Then they took the Catholics, but being a Protestant I kept silent again.
When they took me there was nobody who could intercede for me".
