Would be nice if it were true, but it sounds like a lot of wishful thinking.

Being on the writing staff is worse than being 'The Devils Double'. I pity the person that got to write this bull shit to please the Governing Body.

Plot [ edit ]
In 1987, Latif Yahia (Dominic Cooper), an Iraqi soldier fighting in the Iran–Iraq War , is called to become a "fedai" ("body double" or political decoy) for Uday Hussein (also played by Cooper), the playboy son of Iraqi president Saddam Hussein (Philip Quast). Latif comes from an upper-class family and had attended school with Uday, where the other students would remark on their likeness. Latif initially refuses the position, but is imprisoned and tortured, ultimately relenting when his family is threatened. Latif undergoes minor cosmetic surgery to perfect his resemblance to Uday and practices emulating the young Hussein's mannerisms and wildly volatile persona. He is given access to all of the luxurious benefits of the Husseins' fortune, including massive palaces, expensive wardrobes and Uday's Ferrari and various other exotic cars. Latif tries to resist Uday's exorbitant merrymaking and erratic behavior, at one point fleeing a nightclub in another of Uday's Ferraris to attempt to see his family, who believe he has died in the war. However, he is apprehended by Uday's bodyguards and given a whipping by Uday. After an appearance at a conference with several Kuwaiti leaders, an attempt is made on Uday's (Latif's) life, apparently by a member of a rebel opposition group, possibly aKurd. The real Uday, though, is more concerned with the Kuwaitis, who he believes have been slant drilling into Iraq's Rumaila oil field. The First Gulf War is launched with Uday proclaiming "The Age of the Sheikhs is over!"
Uday's increasingly violent, sadistic tendencies are displayed when he kidnaps a 14-year-old school girl and forces her to escort him to a party. At the party, based on an actual 1988 celebration honoring Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak's wife Suzanne, Uday becomes enraged with his father's personal bodyguard Kamel Hana Gegeo (Mehmet Ferda). Uday believes Gegeo facilitated an affair between Saddam and Samira Shahbandar, which devastated his mother, Sajida Talfah, and he also expresses jealousy at the trust his father places in Kamel Hana. When Gegeo passes sarcastic comments about Uday's sexual advances towards his young victim, Uday butchers him with an electric carving knife in front of all of the guests. The next morning, Uday's bodyguards are seen dumping the partially naked, beaten body of the young girl.....

I’m skeptical of this as well. This feels like a rumor that has grown in the telling.
Of course, historically many individuals in writing have woken up, including one GB member. I’m sure other GB members who stayed like Lyman Swingle had pangs of conscience and knew something was seriously wrong. But I can’t imagine any of the Governing Body 2.0 having sleepless nights.

Hi everyone! Thanks for your thoughts on this post.
I just wanna clarify that my intentions were not to promote any website and I'm not the owner of any website. ( And I don't want a 5 mins of fame as someone has said)
I sincerily thank everyone, even the haters. You may or may not know how hard it is to know the truth about the truth and have to stay in cause of family members still trapped in the cult.
I'm new here and your honest opinions about what is happening in the org are really appriciated.
Again thank you everyone! You are awesome!

While it's possible that several members of the WT writing department resigned, I seriously doubt that any members of the current GB have any pangs of conscience. The new GB members are hardcore party hacks, groomed by Ted Jarecz and selected by him. Any conscience, if they had one to begin with, was left behind when they were appointed to leadership positions in the Borg.

The likelihood of members of the writing department @ WT deserting their post is high IMO.
Journalists, writers and other pencil pusher contributors do a great deal of research before their articles finally go to print. It's no different with WT's scribbler scribes. As these do their research online, eventually they land on XJW sites like this one and others like it and wallah...they wake up!

My policy regarding JW rumor is that if it is impossible to verify within one level, then it probably is false.
Seriously they suggested there is a GB member having a hard time? No way. Who Splane? Morris? Herd? The we just love this idea guy?
No way.
