Sì, penso anche che sia un fodero di spada. Sulla sinistra puoi vedere quello che sembra un'elsa di spada. E quello al centro deve essere il fodero. Non penso che sia un rotolo di Scritture. Mi sembra improbabile che gli ebrei portassero con sé rotoli di Scritture, che erano oggetti preziosi e rari, che venivano conservati nelle sinagoghe. Tuttavia, la forma non è chiara e si presta a interpretazioni "ambigue".

Parliamentary question on paedophilia among JWs in Italy
by Achille in(google translation).
question to the chamber by m5s mp stefania ascari to the ministry of the interior on paedophilia among jehovah's witnesses in italy, starting from the recent case in florence, with references to the various cases that have broken out around the world.. i sense a certain creaking at the italian bethel in rome at via della bufalotta 1281, the italian branch of the watch tower bible and tract society of pennsylvania.
will this have future implications for the italian jehovah's witnesses exponential body, the christian congregation of jehovah's witnesses and for its branch committee, which represents the interests of the governing body in our country?https://aic.camera.it/aic/scheda.html?numero=4/03795&ramo=camera&leg=19.

In the Parliamentary Question it is written that "with a press release the religious confession announced that it was ignorant of the matter and that it had expelled the affiliate in 2018".
In fact, in its press release WTS did not write to "ignore the matter". He wrote this:
«We were deeply shocked to read about the acts of violence to which some members of our religious community were subjected. The person under investigation is no longer one of Jehovah's Witnesses: he was expelled from the congregation in December 2018.The protection of children is of the utmost concern and importance to all Jehovah's Witnesses and we are grateful to the Attorney General for the valuable work it is doing.»
They don't say they are ignorant of what happened.
He was disfellowshipped in 2018, at the end of the period of abuse that was perpetrated between 2014 and, indeed, 2018.
The legitimate question that arises is: why was he disfellowshipped?
Perhaps his crimes had been discovered?
This is something that the investigators should know, even if they will never be told, given that the JWs will invoke the so-called "confessional secrecy".
If he had been disfellowshipped for pedophilia, another question that arises is:
why was he not reported to the authorities?
(We know why...)
However, if they were to search the Kingdom Hall archives, they would find nothing.
WTS said any written records on such matters must be destroyed.
And the "elders" will keep their mouths shut, for the good of the organization.

I try to answer you with my very poor English (I get help from Google translator).
There can be many reasons: These are sexual crimes. In traditional Italian culture (but not only in Italian culture) issues related to sexuality are generally kept hidden. These problems are not talked about outside the family. The people involved try to "resolve" the matter privately. There is therefore a widespread silence, typical of a certain Italian culture, which may have influenced the emergence of these problems.
For centuries these things were kept hidden and there were never complaints or legal actions against the abusers.
In recent decades, however, "Pandora's box" has been opened, and, starting with the Catholic Church, many cases of pedophilia have come to light.
In Italy, however, the Catholic Church still has a certain influence, even at a political level. I think there are Catholic lobbies that influence information and also a certain type of investigation, such as the cases of pedophilia that occur within religious organizations. These Catholic lobbies may fear that if pedophilia is investigated more across the board, Australian style, it would end up hitting the Catholic Church even more.
There is also constant lobbying by the Watch Tower which is aimed at containing widespread counter-information.
I believe that the question will not be particularly effective because it has not neutralized the effects of w 8/2024. It will be easy for WTS to demonstrate that it has changed its practice. It was necessary to correlate Jehovist opportunism with the well-known Norwegian events, for example.
The parliamentary question, unfortunately, makes no mention of these "strategic" changes to the WTS. I therefore fear that the WTS will easily be able to reject the criticisms and accusations contained in this Parliamentary Question and everything will end in nothing.

Current delegate to respond: MINISTRY OF THE INTERIOR delegated on 14/11/2024Process status:
IN PROGRESSChamber ofpresented by
Deputies Written Question 4-03795ASCARI Stefaniatext ofFriday 15 November 2024, session no. 382ASCARI . — To the Minister of the Interior, to the Minister of Justice . — To know – given that:
There are faith communities around the world that provide resources, support and opportunities to the most vulnerable, also playing a significant role in the protection of minors;
Other religious institutions, however, are listed among formal organizations where serious deficiencies in safeguarding policies, systematic psychological and sexual abuse of children and cover-ups of allegations are found;
On November 1 , 2024, Ansa reported that an investigation by the Florence Public Prosecutor's Office led to the indictment of a Jehovah's Witness accused of repeated sexual abuse against 7 girls. The abuse, which lasted for 4 years, allegedly began in 2014 inside the Kingdom Hall;
with a press release the religious denomination announced that it was unaware of the matter and that it had expelled the member in 2018;
according to foreign government and press sources, Jehovah's Witnesses have been the subject of several investigations by government authorities of foreign countries who have unanimously noted, among other things, the inadequacies of internal procedures and policies for the protection of minors, the tendency not to encourage reporting, the concealment of incidents of abuse and paedophilia, the lack of collaboration with the authorities, as well as serious cases of secondary victimisation;
in the Netherlands, where the confession would have opposed the call to establish an internal investigation into cases of child abuse, the Chamber of Deputies would have commissioned researchers from the University of Utrecht to carry out such a study. The heavy conclusions of the report, made public in January 2020, would be in line with what emerged in government investigations;
the recent investigation by the New Zealand Royal Commission, in addition to similarly confirming the findings of other government commissions, has highlighted that the questioning of child and young victims of sexual abuse conducted by members of the so-called internal judicial committee of Jehovah's Witnesses, was configured as "inappropriate and emotionally and psychologically violent";
to establish a judicial committee in cases of abuse, Jehovah's Witnesses around the world would use the scriptural rule of the "two witnesses" according to which a report of abuse is considered reliable only if there are at least two eyewitnesses to the fact;
although religion claims that the rule only regulates matters of an ecclesiastical nature, the aforementioned government investigations would have found that applied to contexts of child abuse, it would have contributed to falsifying reality, increased the risk of crime and generated further suffering for the victims;
even in our country the media have repeatedly reported on cases of abuse and cover-ups within the confessional, confirmed by former congregation elders who presided over such judicial committees, without however any attention from the institutional side –:
whether they do not deem it necessary and urgent, within their sphere of competence, to adopt initiatives aimed at investigating the phenomena described in the introduction;
whether and what initiatives, within their sphere of competence, the Ministers questioned intend to adopt to address the serious phenomenon of child abuse in religious contexts.

Warwick sits on $70 billion?
by LaFrancia in70,000 real estate properties at an average value of $100,000 and perhaps we can say (no one knows for sure) that warwick sits on $70 billion in real estate value.
in the video (deleted by jwborg but available on the avoid.jw website) of the 2018-19 coordinators' committee report (english) shown to all congregations at the mid-week meeting, we find several curious and interesting indications:.
