http://www.themoscowtimes.com/news/article/jehovah-s-witnesses-banned-as-extremist-in-russian-region/511221.html.

nothing new on the horizon they have problems , arrests, razzia's , confiscations of literature and real estate , imprisonment and much more of that for years now in several parts of Russia and countries that were part of the former soviet union. This ban in Samara is just a part of that problem.

Russia is becoming a dictatorstate again with no free press and no independent justice system, no independent media. These actions against the witnesses are instignated by the Russian Orthodox Church. The Patriarch of that Church even lives inside the Kremlin since 2011. I have seen television programs full of lies and propaganda on russian state television about Jehovah's Witnesses.

The Witnesses will appeal to the ECHR but that will not help them, even if they win the case , because Russia does not listen to any institution.

It's sad for the witnesses overthere because life becomes very hard for them. I have several friends (JW's) in St Petersburg. But in the end it will not change anything. Jehovah's Witnesses will stay there and will continue to do their 'work' nothing can or will stop that.

so the governing body likes to keep claiming incredible growth.

at the same time they claim bible studies are way down.

are the finally admitting what we've known all along, that they can no longer recruit outsiders?

@Witness007 that is BS. In the United states they did grow during the 2 decades of Internet

Underrated topic: Gazprom contract with CCJW in the Netherlands

by Gorbatchov in

jw
friends

i posted some days earlier a toppic about the contract between the russian state owned energy supplier gazprom and the ccjw.

here in the netherlands for all the kingdom hall's gas and electricity.. the contract is chosen by ccjw because gazprom is the cheapest suplier.

with the heated debat here in holland because of the mh17 shooting and.

Gazprom Energy is a new player on the dutch energy market for businesses. The dutch branch (located in Den Bosch) is now active for some 3 years and has also branches in the UK , Ireland, France and Germany. The gas is not from Gazprom but delivered by GTS (Gas Transport Services formerly known as Gasunie) . GTS is an international gas trader and 100% state owned by the dutch government.

The electricity is also not russian. They do not produce energy in western europe but buy it from europes providers a and sell it again at a more compettitive rate.

Many companies and also our dutch governent has got deals with gazprom in russia of gazprom energy in the Netherlands. The situation with MH17, Ukraine or human rights did not influence that at all.

Big chance you heat your home and prepare your food with russian gas too because a lot of the gas (if not most) on their network is norwegian and russian.
