It would be funny if the wt was jewish owned. This is a possibility i consider since jews have been involved in not a few of the latest wt property sales. Charlie russel was chums w powerful jews of the time. They could have invested there, at the ground level, so to speak.

Farkel love your comments wish you would post more with all the newbies comming on board.
Farkels health is not the best. Check the archives. Follow his posts and threads, he has done remarkable research.
I don't quite see why this is such a revelation or sort of secret mystery to so many - long articles were written about this in wt and ga in the 30s and 40s, and a whole special number of one of the mags deals with the "plot" to stop the Judge from being buried there. It should be very easy for everyone slightly interested in the wt history to find it, I simply don't get it why so many seem to think this is some sort of secret finally made public thru this and other sites. 30 seconds of googlin' and there it is for everyone to see.
I googled and could find nothing for "Hawaiian Education Facility" that was JW oriented.
Can someone please confirm? Photos would be great!

This is from a previous thread about the Hawaiian facility.
A multi-national, nonprofit Bible educational group, the Watchtower will use its new 53,000-square-foot building at MTP for its Watchtower Educational Center - Pacific. The educational center will be comprised of four conference rooms and one auditorium equipped with multimedia audio/visual equipment with multi-language capabilities to accommodate conferences, seminars and training classes.
...based on the Big Island, said he has seen numerous church groups coming to town looking for properties to buy with the intention of establishing a worship facility or for business purposes.
"The whole aspect of being a church is extremely attractive. Churches have some flexibility in doing things they wouldn't be able to do otherwise," Jardine said.
But according to Nathan Wong, assistant to the branch manager at The Watchtower Bible and Tract Society, there is a great need for these types of facilities.
Better known as the Jehovah's Witnesses, the society recently opened a $20 million, 130,000-square-foot facility at the Mililani Technology Park.
The group established an educational and meeting facility -- situated on 3.4 acres next to Oceanic Cable -- called the Watchtower Educational Center Pacific.
The center will house programs based on practical direction from the bible geared toward businesses and community organizations.
Because of its massive size, the group has been approached by individuals wanting to rent the site for personal events but Wong said the building will remain purely for bible educational meetings.
The center features a main auditorium large enough to fit 1,500 visitors, smaller meeting rooms, and a multimedia facility housed with the latest in electronic devices.
And the society -- which has 300 members in the area -- is continuing its quest to build a larger presence in the Islands with its 24,200-square-foot two-story meeting hall being built at the former Ranch House site in Aina Haina.
The Jehovah's Witnesses -- who rely heavily on donations to operate -- purchased the 60,890-square-foot site for $3.6 million to build a facility for both prayer and education. Construction is scheduled for completion in October.
