I’m probably going to get shot (no pun intended) for saying this, and I have no doubt this has been discussed before. But I fully support what Putin did, and in hindsight I probably would have done the same thing. This was never about Russia wanting to take over or dominate Ukraine. This was about missiles been built in Ukraine that left the Russian borders vulnerable to attack. The exact same thing happened in the Cold War between Cuba/ USA. I bet if it were the drug gangs in Mexico, building atomic weaponry in Tijuana, something would have been done about it pretty quickly. The Ukrainian government could have not decided to join natio, and this whole thing would have never happened. A terrorist can be very subjective, depending on what side of the line you are on.

North Korea Troops flying in to help Russia?
by liam inabout a month ago, some unknown poster who looked like one of those guys with a tin foil hat posted on a youtube video that north korea soldiers were landing on russia, during the night, armed to the teeth.
he was making these crazy comments that north korea had committed to help russia fight against nato and that they were getting ready to use nukes against nato countries if nato started using them first.
in less the an hour the video was taken down.

I remember, years ago they released renditions of kingdom songs been sung by members of the GB/Bethel family. I was an orthodox PIMI at the time, and I remember openly commenting about how bad they all sounded, and that I was embarrassed listening to it. I just wished it had been the thing to have woken me up. Would have saved me decades.

L.A. D.A. Announces His Office Is Reviewing The Menendez Brothers' Conviction
by silentbuddha innot sure if anyone really remembers this case, it was huge at the time.
the very interesting point though about this was that at the time the parents were known to be very active in the jw religion.
i also believe that the father may have been an elder(i could be mistaken, though).

I remember watching a mini series about this. I don’t recall this ever been brought out in the movie. In fact this is the first time I’ve heard of it. I’d have to assume, that them been JWs was not the case.

Where is Tony?
by Athanasius inon february 22, 2023, anthony morris iii was officially removed from the governing body of jehovah's witnesses.
a few months later it was revealed that the watchtower bought him a house in lumberton, north carolina.. however, and correct me if i am wrong, since leaving the gb nobody has reported seeing tony attending jw meetings or participating in field service.
in fact nobody has reported seeing him anywhere, not even at a local liquor store.

I have seen this happen with my very PIMI JW parent. Even with the advent of Zoom, and him been fully dressed, to now only been dressed to the point where the camera can see. I’m actually the one who pushes him to go to the physical meetings, because I think that physical contact is good for him. A few weeks back was his district assembly. On the Sunday of the convention, he suddenly decides he won’t go as he has previously seen it on zoom. So we went shopping in the convention city in stead. I all my days I never thought I would ever witness this. I thought this might be an awakened moment for him, but alas this wasn’t to be. Lol. Before the tick the box for FS, he was writing letters. As this could be a measure of his reliance on Jehovah AKA Watchtower. After the tick the box for FS he barely does that. It must be months since he last physically went out in FS. I sort of don’t mind this really as he’s advanced in years. At least with letter writing, and standing aimlessly at a cart, it keeps his mind ticking over, and gives him exercise delivering his letters.

That bethel was sold for $NZ52 million. That was 10 years ago, and none of the local PIMIs were any the wiser. The money just vanished. IMO as far as making roads into the JW community, this whole thing was a total waste of time. -

The apostle John was at the site of Jesus crucifixion. Jesus’s entrusts the care of his mother to him.
Jesus certainly died upon a cross. I believed he did for about 15 years before I physically left the religion. The evidence is just overwhelming. I just wished it had been the thing to wake me up. Lol
