Musings of a former chicken

First they came for the monarchists, and I did not speak out--

because I agreed with them and was not a monarchist;

Then they came for the leftists, and I did not speak out--

because I agreed with them and was not a leftist;

Then they came for the intellectuals, and I did not speak out--

because I agreed with them and was not a intellectual;

Then they came for the Baha’is, and I did not speak out--

because I agreed with them and was not a Baha’i;

Then they came for Montazeri, and I did not speak out—

because I agreed with them and was not a Montazeri fan—

Then they came for me

and there was no one left to speak out for me except Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, New York Times, LA Times, BBC, VOA, Radio Farda, Radio France International, Deutsche Welle, , Radio Zamaneh, Rasa T.V , Saham News, Kalameh,. Rahesabz, Facebook, Balatarin, , , ,
