In the face of human cruelty just say no

For an allegedly Judaeo-Christian nation this country does no justice to the Books many allege to be its truths:

"So you, too, must show love to foreigners, for you yourselves were once foreigners in the land of Egypt."

Deuteronomy 10:19

"Master, which [is] the great commandment in the law?"
³⁷ Jesus said unto him, "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
³⁸ This is the first and great commandment.
³⁹ And the second [is] like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
⁴⁰ On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets."
Matthew 22-40
 

If the Holocaust taught one thing it is the sin of silence while the innocent are being tortured.  A blogger said: "It's being done because at this moment the will of the American people is not defined on this issue [immigration].  Like many other issues the public is silent. There should be 1 million citizens on the border supporting human rights."

What  is being done in this nation to the least of these who seek refuge from certain death is this nation's great sin.  It is an example of humanity at its very worst -- one step away from the Nazis who laid siege to 1930's Europe.  The Nationalist, which Trump claims title for himself and the extreme right an extension of it, simply do not care.  In fact, I aver, most Nationalists and right wing extremists would kill all the asylum seekers if they could. We ask how could Nazi Germany have happened. You do not have to look far for the answer.  "The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, But in ourselves, Julius Caesar (I, ii, 140-141)"

If Nuremberg taught us one thing it taught us to say no in the face of human cruelty, injustice and the diminishing of a single human life.
