Why were there so few? Was it that perilous to oppose evil? Was it really impossible to help? Was it really impossible to resist organized, systemitized, legalized cruelty and murder by showing concern for the victims, for one victim? Let us remember: What hurts the victim most is not the cruelty of the oppressor, but the silence of the bystander.
Elie Wiesel (1928-2016) Romanian-American novelist, professor, political activist, Nobel Laureate.
Forward to Carol Rittner & Sandra Meyers, Courage To Care — Rescuers of Jews during the Holocaust (1986)More info about this quote: wist.info/wiesel-elie/79927/

Never shall I forget those things, even were I condemned to live as long as God Himself. Never. – Elie Wiesel (Nobel Peace Prize laureate 1986). Translation by Marion Wiesel. #HolocaustRemembranceDay #ElieWiesel

In practice, the ethical stance often depends on the context & the stakes involved. Remaining neutral or silent in the face of injustice allows oppressive systems to persist. Injustice thrives on inaction. Silence signals complicity.
But you can also argue that there are situations where neutrality might be necessary or strategic, such as voiding escalation & preserving peace.
In certain situations it may enable mediation or diplomacy. -
