Automatic's translation, sorry:
The 2005's report of Miviludes, a french's government comission regarding cult is released.
The Jehovah's witnesses are evoked there in connection with the sectarian influence on children, it is evoked the refusal of approval presented to a couple of Jehovah's witnesses for adoption because their position on blood's transfusion.(Page 17) as well as the no-report to the police of facts of rape on minor of less than 15 years by the elders of a congregation (Page 21).
It is evoked the activity of "medical matter lobbying" with the HLC (Page 59), as well as the diffusion of a DVD on the alternatives to the transfusions (Page 117) which would comprise inaccuracies in course of evaluation by a medical's comission (Page 125). (This last point is interesting with what has been called "the Big News", if the french's medical community could found that there are some inaccuracies in the JW's DVD, it could be a big argument to present in court)
The report is talking about a decision of a court concerning a family dispute where a father obtained that his JW's wife cannot take along her children to a Kingdow Hall, but not that they do not meet the followers, the court of Aix-en-Provence affirmed "the prohibitions imposed to a 5 year old little child are not appropriate to the psychological development of this one which is not in age to make the share of the things. They bring it to a rejection of the ideas of his father, which are not in conformity with those of his mother. In addition, it is detrimental for the child not to profit, like his schoolmates, of the rejoicings of the festivals of Christmas and Easter which have, for much, lost their religious character but are often the occasion of family meetings which take part in the blooming of the child and his integration in the company." (Page 88 and 89).
In the humane field, the report wonders about Aidafrique association (Page 74) without bringing details.

The French government has the right attitude towards the JWs because they realised that they are a cult and they do not follow a soft policy with them.
