Instead of pursuing a resolution and a settlement they are daily increasing the pressure and offering Russia no way out.
Putin; Oh yea, Say hi to my little friend!

Where will the war in Ukraine lead to?
by Kosonen inthere has been comments in the news recently that the war in ukraine could be the beginning to the world war three.. i would not be surprised if it is.
.
the bible says a time will come when the peace will be taken from the earth.. revelation 6:4 another came out, a fiery-colored horse, and it was granted to the one seated on it to take peace away from the earth so that they should slaughter one another, and he was given a great sword.. have you heard what possibly this war in ukraine could lead to?.

The only man in the room - Kennedy 1962
by slimboyfat inin the current situation, it’s worth listening to this podcast about nuclear near misses.
the cuban missile crisis was only one example, but is worth considering.
in 1962 the united states and russia went eyeball to eyeball over russia’s military base in cuba.

Everyone in the room said it was a terrible deal, there was no way the Unites States should accept it. John Kennedy’s own brother, the Secretary of State, opposed the deal. The invasion of Cuba should go ahead.
Is that why they killed JFK?

"Somebody" needs to do "Something!"
by Terry init's always unjustifiable for a country to attack another country without having first been attacked itself.. the nuremberg trials at the end of wwii made this clear.. more vividly too: following orders as a patriotic duty is never secondary to the pangs of your personal conscience.. .
worst of all, hypocrisy destroys credibility when you.
criticize other countries for doing what you have done.. .

Given the above, if you were in Putin’s position, would you start nuclear war now, and almost certainly be incinerated?

People need to wise the fuck up and stop being led by the politicians and the media who walk us into pointless conflicts for ratings and distraction purposes.
A lot of thinking people have wised up and know the media, the politicians, big tech, and money hungry corporations, are playing them, but the masses who "Need" their cell phones, need their "Likes" on their selfies, need the approval of invisible friends, and believe they are "Entitled" to monies they didn't earn----they are the ones that are bringing the human race on the verge of extinction, because they are to stupid to know they are being manipulated.
No different than JWs being manipulated to let their children or spouse die by refusing a needed blood transfusion.

You virtue signalled. And you voted for the people who made this happen.
This pisses me off so much.
I can't number the times that I've talked to stupid people who argued that Biden was the best president to vote for.

There's too much money to be made by keeping the organization intact.
Money moves everything. You might be right.

One reply by;
isettaplus1959I think you have it right , I joined jws in 1963 it is a totaly different religion now ,major doctrines changed from 2013 on that make no sense ,like the sudden declaration that the faithfull slave is now made up of only the governing body, since pastor Russell time the slave has always been anointed Christians , another is the doing away with types and antitypes which basically undermines the teaching on 1914 and the teaching that there are two classes of Christians .
In knorrs time as president the organisation was the leading publisher of Bible aids ( even if their theology is way off) , as you say now we get one fresh public WT a year !
No books to place in ministry , the rush to get all on line and use tablets and smartphones etc for ministry and meetings ,and the cherry on the cake the grand media centres to produce movies to broadcast on line .in fact bro Morris said at the AGM that route calls are a waste of time .
If it was not for the shunning many would simply melt away and many would dissociate as a protest at the absurd nonsense that is presented on the jw broadcasts and in meetings..
As for kingdom halls I think they will sell off most of them and Keep a few strategically located for small circuit assemblies. The religion known as Jehovah's witnesses will become just like the original Bible students just another small insignificant group with little contact to the public .

Interesting Idea by;Fabian Strategy WarriorTo many of you, this idea might seem absurd, but is it?
On the surface, the Organization seems as fanatical as ever, maybe even more so.
At the top, we see a different story. They are in no hurry to get back to Kingdom Halls.
They failed to launch a special program to keep baptisms up. They have nearly killed off printing and writing of magazines.
Their sense of 'apologia' barely exists at all, in spite of the greatest challenges to their history and doctrine ever.
The direction of the Organization has never been this lazy, as an objective fact.
In regard to their on air performances, it takes no special effort to rant about adversaries. It's stereotypical behavior anyway.
Maybe they are letting things go with some intention.
Let things burn themselves out.
Selling off Kingdom Halls might be an obstacle best dealt with by inaction.
Let Zoom calcify the situation and publishers won't care anymore.
