Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people; neither shalt thou stand idly by the blood of thy neighbor" (Leviticus 19:16).


 In order to escape accountability for his/her crimes, the perpetrator does everything in their power to promote forgetting.  Secrecy and silence are the perpetrator's first line of defense.  If secrecy fails, the perpetrator attacks the credibility of his victim.  If he cannot silence him absolutely, he tries to make sure no one listens.  --  Judith Lewis Herman
