The most recent WT article that will come back to bite them is in the September 1, 2005 Watchtower, page 23-26.
There the WT lashes out at the Mennonites for their practice of expelling members. Here are some direct quotes:
"Many feel oppressed and live in dread of being expelled from the community - a terrible prospect for one who has never experienced life outside."
"...church preachers, who threatened Johann's family with expulsion if they did not stop. Later, during a family discussion about the pressure the Mennonite elders were putting on them, one young man spoke up."
"A few days later, the church elders came to the home of Johann's family with an ultimatum for the interested ones: " We heard that Jehovah's Witnesses visited you. You must forbid them to return, and unless you hand over their literature to be burned, you face expulsion."
"How did the elders react? They expelled them for studying the Bible! This was a cruel blow indeed."
"Neighbors surrounded the home to take away the wife of one of the young men, asserting that she could not live with her expelled husand. Despite all of this, the families who studied the Bible did not give up their search for the truth."
"Cut off from their community, the families began making their own cheese. The missionaries helped them find buyers. A longtime Witness in North America who grew up in a South American colony heard about the families' plight. He had a special desire to help."
"It was difficult after we were expelled from the community. We would travel to the Kingdom Hall with sad faces."

There it is again... the pot calling the kettle black. The WT and their elders are really good at doing that.
