I wonder if the UN will let them use their planes now that they have DA'd themselves and the UN finds out about all the nasty things WT has written over the years about them?

this quote comes from the wt's brochure called mission to africa.. the entire brochure is on kents site the watchtower observer.. our activity was often hindered by difficulties particular to the region.
distances are vast and lines of communication almost nonexistent.
the best form of travel, if not the only one, is the airplane.

italics are mine.
They used this connection to the fullest and published propaganda in their literature to impress Governments and to try to secure their tax exempt status and who knows what else!
They were never concerned in the past about this kind of humanitarian work and we all know it.

as of 11:45 this morning (i had a telphone call this morning with the refernce department person named holly at 212-963-7234), i can tell you that the watchtower has disassociated itself from the united nations dpi!!!!!!.
the dpi is now taking them off the list.
the dpi requested the list removal to be done this morning!!!!!.
Hawk,
I don't know what to think!
They are going to say they didn't know about it and it's apostates that made them members!
They'll say that or some other lie.
I just hope the UN doesn't let them off that easily!!
Ranchette
yep, that's right!!.
i called my mother tonight to say a friendly hello.
you guessed it.
ana,
That sounded like something my mom would say!
It's very frustrating.
I'm glad that you feel good about the way you handled the situation.
I just want to warn you not to feel shocked if in a week or so you start feeling different emotions.
Those feelings will be perfectly normal.

the other evening when i put the garbage out, i got that creepy "i'm being watched" feeling.. elders?
i thought, looking around in a discreetly paranoid fashion.. nope.
it wasn't elders.
Ex,
We used to have lots of racoons!We loved them but like you didn;t want them in our trash.
We used bungi cords to lock down our trash lids.
They love dry cat food and anything you throw out for them.One night I fed them a pan of jalapeno corn bread.They snarfed it down!
But probably needed water afterwards.
So my advise is to secure your trash cans and then decide if you want to feed and enjoy them like pets or not.
I feed every critter and varmit that comes to my house including humans.I just can't help it.
Tell them to come see me!
Ranchette
P.s. If you really want to have fun, go to Walmart and buy some 20cent goldfish.Put them in a shallow pan that won't turn over and watch the coons fish.
this comparison shows graphically how our loved ones and friends have been mesmerized by the watchtower cult.
note the same defensive statements in each resopnse.
first let's see 'fed up's sister:.
Rex,
I know this is very frustrating!
I sent over 20 UN letters out about two wks ago and the silence is deafining!
Maybe I should take it as a positive.I mean they haven't asked me not to send any more info like that yet.What do you think?
Ranchette
for those of you who don't know about "bathory," i will tell you.. he is a liar.
he doesn't keep his word, nor does he keep his agreements.. he claims to be a dub, but like many dubs, he lies and he doesn't mind the fact that he lies.
he revels that he lies and gets away with it.. this is all fact.. englishman: you nailed him.. farkel.
Farkel,
I don't know this person but will keep my eyes peeled so I can see what your talking about.He he!
Just wanted you to know that several of us responded to you last night in chat when you said that no one ever listens to you.
We were all in agreement that we do listen to you and enjoy your posts.
I was one of the privleged who got to see you in the old H2o days.I've known you for about 1 1/2 yrs to 2yrs even if your not that famaliar with me.
There are so many new ones here.Please consider digging up some of your gems!

call for holy war renewed.
by nadia abou el-magd cairo, egypt (ap) - osama bin laden's spokesman issued a strident, televised appeal tuesday, for muslims around the world to rise in a global holy war against the united states and its interests everywhere.. al-qaida spokesman sulaiman abu ghaith praised the hijackers who flew planes into the world trade center and pentagon for their ``good deed,'' saying they had ``moved the battle into the heart of america.''.
Moe,
Check your email.

i have not been reading posts lately.
can anyone give me a brief summary of the "scandal" involving the un and the wtbs?
thanks!
DB,
The WT UN thread is NOT mixed with nonsence like some of our threads.
I URGE you to take the time to digest this from start to finish.
This is big! So much so that some have disassociated themselves over it already.A long time ex elder friend of ours DA'd his self last tuesday over this.
At the very least this should be shocking and disturbing to any long time JW!

collier buildings evacuated; closed for day .
Laura,
I agree,If my local paper or radio station reported these things I would be scared too.
I think any one else would be too.At least some axiousness would be felt.I don't care what the reputation of the paper is.
Even the tabloids get it right sometimes people!
Put yourself in the other persons place,please, before making judgments.Also, leaving the past where it belongs would be helpful too.
Mr Moe has really come along way.I can tell she's really trying Please give her a break.
