Iraqis the Endangered species

First they came for the Jews and Iraqis did not stop them—
Because the Jews were not Iraqis
Then they came for the Kurds, and Iraqis did not stop them—
Because the Kurds were not Iraqi
Then they came for the Shia, and Iraqis did not stop them—
Because the Shia were not Iraqi 
Then they came for the Sunna, and Iraqis did not stop them
Because the Sunna were not Iraqi
Then they came for the Turkman, and Iraqis did not stop them
Because the Turkman were not Iraqi
Then they came for the Christians, and Iraqis did not stop them
Because the Christians were not Iraqi
Then they came for the Yazidis, and Iraqis did not stop them—
Because the Yazidis were not Iraqi

Then they came for the Iraqi—
But there was no one left.

In my own lifetime "they' have changed, but the brutal expulsion, destruction and murder has continued and intensified. 
I have personally heard this denial of "Iraqiness" used to justify it all
...... they were Israeli agents .......they were Iranian agents...... they were Saudi agents, ...........they were British agents......they worship the devil.......
Every Iraqi is another Iraqi's foreigner,  spy,  traitor,  heathen or all the above and they are all dispensable unless they become.....refugees.....of another nationality
