Cowards will use any means at their disposal to silence those who disagree with them.

Another opportunity for the gb to muster the troops in a massive letter writing campaign. At least it keeps the troops busy when they aren't 'cart witnessing----sitting down in the vicinity of 'the cart' using their cell phones!
just saying!

We should flood the GB parasites w/messages to get over there (they have good booze in land of see-thrus, i.e., Vodka, so they'd survive) and help these poor JWs. Where's the WT legal team and to what extent is WT responsible. Needs to be TV coverage on this. I'm sure the 8? imbibing losers are quite concerned (what a joke)! They've no regard for law and justice and need to be held accountable.
Putin must have warehouses of JW letters for a paper recycling factory -- I'm sure this is the extent of WT's efforts on behalf of these poor JWs but are concerned and defending their asset/property losses. Apostates' letters would have a better chance with Russian despot revealing truth of the perpetrators they need to go after. Poor innocent cult vics!

In regards the criticism on the way they did it: Police have to be in full gear for these types of things because you don't want to be surprised. If someone gives you intel, it's not always correct, it could always be a trap.
As far as the rest, yes, we should condemn that Russia and Europe-Asia in general doesn't have freedom of religion, however the JW were warned on how they could avoid these situations. The WTBTS is explicitly avoiding compliance with local laws on family separation, child molestation and hate speech/extremism against other religions (which the EU also has but fails to enforce, France tried at least by revoking their tax exempt status).
The JW religion is allowed to exist if the congregations are allowed to exist independently from the WTBTS, not exfiltrate the tax exempt money donations from Russia to the US (which both in Russia and France have to be spent locally for 'charity' to be considered tax exempt) and they stop publishing 'incendiary' hateful language in their publications.
Freedom of speech is only a real thing in the US; Canada, the EU etc doesn't know freedom of speech in the way we are used to.

Disgusting, anyone who values the rule of law should condemn Russias actions.

Very well spoken.
I could not agree with you more.
