....would they have the resources to rebuild? Are the buildings insured, or is the WTS self-insured?
Anyone know?

My guess is that they're self-insured.

I guess that will never happen, but if it did, they have the money to rebuild a couple of times over.

Imagine terrorists really trying to make a HUGE impression. They get together and say,"Let's really show the world the utter devestation that we can accomplish." They look at national monuments, major bridges, and huge skyscrapers. Finally they meet and decide to do the most dastardly act concievable: Destroy Brooklyn Bethel.....Of course we know that such a thing is impossible. No way would God let the governing body be destroyed.Then what would He do?

Insurance baby, Insurance!!
However, over here, insurance companies are no longer covering buildings for terrorist attacks. Is it the same over there??
Well anyway, if anything did happen to the WT, isn't it more the land and location that is makes it worth what it is, rather then the building? They would probably sell and rebuild somewhere else...in a less prominent part of town. I would have thought that location isn't important to the society when it comes to their premises as most KH quick build projects I have been to the KH was always being built in a cheaper side of town...as was the South Auckland Assembly Hall and Auckland Bethel.

No, I wouldn't do anything stupid. I'd evacuate the building first!
Beck,
Yes, I imagine that the property is worth a fortune. But, hey the WTS will have to start paying out some massive claims in the future, I believe. They just might sell their property, which would be great for Brooklyn. They ain't getting squat for taxes from the WTS as it is.
