''They Came for the Jews''

Some may recall the famous Martin Niemoller quotation:

"They came for the Communists, and I didn't object - For I wasn't a Communist; they came for the Socialists, and I didn't object - For I wasn't a Socialist; They came for the labor leaders, and I didn't object - For I wasn't a labor leader; They came for the Jews, and I didn't object - For I wasn't a Jew; Then they came for me - And there was no one left to object." -Martin Niemoller, German Protestant Pastor, 1892-1984

It has application today.

First they bombed the Israelis, and I didn't protest, for I was not an Israeli. Then they struck the Americans, and I paid lip service for a few days. (Sometimes I secretly cheered them on.)

Then they bombed the Spanish trains, and I didn't stand up, for I was not a Spaniard. Then they bombed the British subway, and I didn't protest, for I was not a Brit. Then they came for the Danish cartoonists, and I didn't protest, for I was not a Dane. By the time I realized they were out to destroy western civilization in its entirety, including sympathetic, warm-hearted, fuzzy-headed left-wing moonbats like me, it was too late. -George Soros, George Clooney, Jacques Chirac, Steven Spielberg, John Kerry, et al

Oh, all right, I made up the signatures too. But I can just hear them screaming out, as the Muslim extremists torch the movie studios and burn their books and chop off their heads, "Were you guys serious?"
