Shemos; Silence Brings Destruction byRabbi Shloime Pollak

The obvious question is: what should איוב have done? Protest the Gezeirah? Cry sympathetically for the Yidden (אז סטוט וויי שרייט מען)?? Well, יתרו didn't cry or protest and nothing happened to him... Apparently, it was clear that they can not do anything to change the decree... So what is wrong with being quiet??...
