By Mike James in Germany – 3 November 2008
When the Jews first came for the holocaust deniers,
I remained silent;
For I did not ask questions and accepted the myth.
When they imprisoned the revisionists,
I remained silent;
For the media told me they were hate-mongers.
When they extradited the critics of Israel,
I remained silent;
For I feared being called anti-Semitic and losing my job.
When they murdered the nationalists,
I remained silent;
For I was taught to despise my own race.
When they arrested the patriots,
I remained silent;
For I trusted in Big Government and the European Union.
When they came for the Christians,
I remained silent;
For I rejected the divinity of Christ.
When they came for the opponents of the New World Order,
I remained silent;
For I was afraid of Satan.
When they came for me, I cried out in anguish and despair,
But there was no one left to help me.
