Perhaps reshaim won't listen to a tzadik's calls. But on the other
hand, when a rasha suddenly starts preaching Godliness, other reshaim
are more likely to listen.

Imagine what Rabbi Hertz would have given to be able to quote Hitler,
in the "gentiles praise Jews" section (I'm paraphrasing that section
title) in his A Book of Jewish Thoughts!
