Today is the 70th Anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz - a good day to sign up with Jews for Justice in Palestine, something Ive been meaning to do for some time - Never Again. jfjfp/?page_id=2 And a good opportunity to re-quote the 1946 poem by Martin Niemoller en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Martin_Niemoller : 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 wasnt a Jew. When they came for me, / there was no one left to speak out. Against racism, against antisemitism, against Islamophobia, against stereotyping and oppression and violence.... For peace, love, understanding, justice and happiness, worldwide for all people and living creatures. Myoho-renge-kyo
