I actually talked to someone that heard this and believe me, a considerable number of people bought it hook, line and sinker. When it was conveyed to me there was no equivocation or qualification, they were counting down the last hour.
Snippet of a JW letter.

Of course the R&F buy into this, otherwise, yet another one of the things they have been told is not true.

It surprises me that every time I read something like this on this forum, I feel afraid as soon as I read it. I have to talk myself quickly through the things I have learned, things that convinced me that it isn't 'The Truth', and made me leave.
It reminds me how utterly trapped the JWs can feel... even those having doubts. My husband included...

There are only 3 places
where the good news has not reached because it can't reach there
(banned) - North Korea, Afghanistan and Yugoslavia.Wow, so it is finished in China, where there are only a few thousand out of the 1,300,000,000 people, (and finished in India where there are only a few thousand out of the 1 billion and all the other places where the ratio is 1 JW to 10,000's people). How many doors must those Chinese JWs be knocking on each day.

No, silly, the rocks are crying out of course. The news media just aren't carrying the stories of the crying rocks.

You really need to read "Crisis of Conscience" by Ray Franz.
After reading his book, you won't feel any more of these "pangs". You will always know that the W.T. is not the faithful and discreet slave, and statements like "the end coming soon" won't have any more effect on your thinking.

My advice for what it is worth.....Store the email, then forward it back to her every year for as long as you can be bothered!

BTW, how long ago was this email? Yugoslavia hasn't existed for several years; it's Bosnia, Sebvia, Montenegro, Moldavia, etc.
