...Jehovah’s Witnesses are not involved in a war with anybody in the world. We’re not involved in the affairs of the world. We’re not involved in their wars, their politics. We are totally neutral.
We are totally neutral. ----Neutral: not engaged on either side; specifically : not aligned with a political or ideological grouping...There must be another defintion.

By their (GB) actions they are APOSTATES...they aligned themselves against Jehovah.

JWB...I have mention of this to few JWs and they dismissed it... one said we joined for humanitarian reasons! They do not seem to want to discuss it and have not mentioned it again, I asked them how this could be possible but get no answers.
Of course if I keep talking about I will be labeled as someone causing contentions or division. So I just say very little and wait for an appropriate time.

The Purposes of the United Nations are:
1)To maintain international peace and security, and to that end: to take effective collective measures for the prevention and removal of threats to the peace, and for the suppression of acts of aggression or other breaches of the peace, and to bring about by peaceful means, and in conformity with the principles of justice and international law, adjustment or settlement of international disputes or situations which might lead to a breach of the peace;
2) To develop friendly relations among nations based on respect for the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples, and to take other appropriate measures to strengthen universal peace;
3)To achieve international co-operation in solving international problems of an economic, social, cultural, or humanitarian character, and in promoting and encouraging respect for human rights and for fundamental freedoms for all without distinction as to race, sex, language, or religion; and
4) To be a centre for harmonizing the actions of nations in the attainment of these common ends.

So if it was not wrong...why did they keep it secret from almost all JW'S ?---even to this day!

“Human governments have schemed to form the most brazen and defiant conspiracy against divine rule that has ever existed. (Compare Isaiah 8:11-13.) They have done so, not once, but twice, creating first the League of Nations and then the United Nations.”
The Watchtower, September 1 (1987) p.20
“The United Nations is actually a worldly confederacy against Jehovah God and his dedicated Witnesses on earth.”

1. The Watchtower is very clear that anyone indicating support of an organisation that goes contrary
to Bible principles disassociates themselves by their actions.
Organized To Accomplish Our Ministry (1983) p.151
Concerning those who renounce their Christian faith in his day, the apostle John wrote: "They went out from us, but they were not of our sort; for if they had been of our sort, they would have remained with us" (1 John 2:19). Also, a person might renounce his place in the Christian congregation by his actions, such as by becoming part of a secular organization the objective of which is contrary to the Bible and, hence, is under judgment by Jehovah God (compare Revelation 19:17-21; Isaiah 2:4). So if a person who is a Christian chooses to join those who are disapproved by God, it would be fitting for the congregation to acknowledge by a brief announcement that he has disassociated himself and is no longer one of Jehovah's Witnesses. Such a person would be viewed in the same way as a disfellowshipped person.
“As Jehovah's Witnesses they value their relationship to God and Christ above everything
else. Were they to identify themselves as giving unquestioning support to any political
arrangement... Any act on their part that would indicate otherwise, therefore, would be an
act of disloyalty. Such an act would be taking away from God and Christ their rightful due
and would be worship to the "wild beast." No matter how insignificant the act required may
seem, a Christian's engaging in such worship would mean his being disloyal to God and
Christ.” Watchtower 1976 October 15 pp.632,636

YMCA
“We have long recognized that the YMCA, though not being a church as such, is definitely
aligned with the religious organizations of Christendom in efforts to promote interfaith . In
joining the YMCA as a member a person accepts or endorses the general objectives and
principles of the organization.
Membership means that one has become an integral part
of this organization founded with definite religious objectives, including the promotion of
interfaith. Hence, for one of Jehovah s Witnesses to become a member of such a so-
called Christian association would amount to apostasy. Watchtower 1979 Jan 1

For the past several years the "anointed remnant" have increased in numbers, showing an
embarrassing contradiction to statements published in Watchtower literature.

"There cannot be a question or doubt that Jesus
Christ can and does direct every division of his
organization and that he can and does use his holy
angels to carry into operation his orders and direct
the course of the remnant on earth, regardless of
the fact that the remnant cannot see these agents
or ambassadors of the Lord and can have no direct
or audible communication with them." (The
Watchtower. September 1. 1932. p. 263).
