  El País ( listen (help·info); literally The Country) is the highest-circulation daily newspaper in Spain and one of three Madrid dailies considered to be national newspapers of record for Spain (along with El Mundoand ABC).[2] El País, based in Madrid, is owned by the Spanish media conglomerate PRISA.

  The latest info at the Spanish forum is that the elders are receiving electronically instructions from the COs to go out and buy from the stands all the copies of this newspaper edition. One of the friends commented that this might result in the publishing of a second edition.

  Fidel Castro and the WT

  i am going to engage on a trip to the past and share with you some of the matters that marked the beginning of the jws persecution in cuba.

  you will be surprised that the pattern that was followed is very similar to what happened in other dictatorial countries.. in the cuban case, i am going to surprise you and tell you that like what happened with hitler; the wt was partially responsible for their clash and confrontation with the cuban government.

  during the early 60s the revolution was fighting for survival and they were willing and ready to demolish any perceived enemy to their cause.. a prime example was their war against the catholic church that was the most influential religious entity in the country; it took the supreme leader only a few public discourses to send the vast majority of clergy packing and back to their country, in this case spain.. the jehovah’s witnesses were an insignificant minority but they over estimated their importance and displayed a belligerent attitude, it was known that this was a us based religion and an easy target to connect them with the cia.

  FC was a chameleon, he could make and break promises and policies in a blink of an eye. There was a famous case, when he arrested one of his former comandantes and close friend Humberto Sori Marin. His mother who knew Castro as close as a mother, went to him pleading for his son's life; he told her in a very compassionate way "not to worry, that everything was going to be fine". As soon as she left he called the prison and ordered the execution, telling the lady thereafter that unfortunately he was to late to save his friend.

  that admission in the feb.17 ,study edition of the watchtower , " who is leading gods people today ?

  " "the governing body is neither inspired, nor infallible, therefore it (they/we) can err in doctrinal matters or in organizational direction .".

  have the many jehovahs witnesses past and present who have lost their lives by refusing blood transfusions due to the prohibition on blood tranfusions by jehovahs witnesses really got the sense of this statement ?.

  136 FALSE PROPHETS
  
  Jehovah’s Witnesses do not claim to be inspired prophets. They
  have made mistakes. Like the apostles of Jesus Christ, they have at
  times had some wrong expectations.—Luke 19:11; Acts 1:6.
  The Scriptures provide time elements related to Christ’s
  presence, and Jehovah’s Witnesses have studied these with keen
  interest. (Luke 21:24; Dan. 4:10-17) Jesus also described a manyfeatured
  sign that would tie in with the fulfillment of time
  prophecies to identify the generation that would live to see the end
  of Satan’s wicked system of things. (Luke 21:7-36) Jehovah’s
  Witnesses have pointed to evidence in fulfillment of this sign. It is
  true that the Witnesses have made mistakes in their understanding
  of what would occur at the end of certain time periods, but they
  have not made the mistake of losing faith or ceasing to be watchful
  as to fulfillment of Jehovah’s purposes. They have continued to
  keep to the fore in their thinking the counsel given by Jesus: “Keep
  on the watch, therefore, because you do not know on what day your
  Lord is coming.”—Matt. 24:42.

  The standards for the WT have changed, for some of us we are looking at the WT as just another religion and applying the same norms of a society where "so what" and "what a difference does it make" are the common rule. That is not the way that the majority used to view the WT when they pretended to be THE TRUTH.

  Your feelings for the former travelling overseers

  during our wt life we met a good number of friends involved in the circuit and district work.

  i am sure that we share the same experience and that we remember fondly some that we caring, loving and generally interested in the brothers.

  at the same time we might remember others that were arrogant, selfish, abusive and oppressive.

  I don't have the know how to fully analyze the transactions, for what I can see the amounts of $$$$$ related to sales are staggering.
