Interesting...but then Hoover was adpept at seeing enemies everywhere he wanted to.
I suppose he may have been up on the JW resistance to the Nazi's and feared that if the USA was invaded the JW's could cause headaches with their pacifist stance so best to take their leader out of the picture as there was really no one else of (and I use the term loosly) stature that could have filled Rutherford's shoes

The question is of course, why would they do that? And what was the frame of mind within which something like this seemed important only in the case of national emergency. Could it be because of WTBS stance on neutrality or is there something more sinister such as, if I'm not mistaken, their attempt to strike the deal with Adolf Hitler. It would be greatly appreciated if we could see more of the document behind. But even this is very, very interesting and intriguing indeed. Thank you Leolaia

If you only knew:
The government has plans in place for a lot of things. The National Guard doesn't protect us, for example. It's job is to protect the system from us.

Furthermore, with the release of this document verifying that the government would deem the "Jehovah Witness leader" dangerous in a martial law situation, people can more easily accept that the government keeps tabs on any and everyone, and the situations with individuals like Malcolm, Martin, and JFK become more clear.

Rutherford was a loose cannon. He wasn't part of the "old boys club", he taunted it. And flaunted his own wealth and power in front of them. He was uncontrollable. Even Russell saw that, and tried to prevent his ascention.
