In the German Nazi era there was a event called Kristallnacht where a pogrom against Jews was carried out by the Nazi Party's Sturmabteilung and Schutzstaffel paramilitary forces. The German authorities looked on without intervening.
Based on this there is this adaptation:

Remember, remember
The 9th of November
Broken glass, fire and plot
I know of no reason
Why our very own treason
Should ever be forgot
