    Why build anything after AMG? Land wil be free, materials will be free. weather and climate will be absolutely perfect-not too hot not too cold-not too much rain; if it did you could go and shelter under bushy leafed trees! Take a D*** behind bushes- different bushes for men and women of course in different parts of the compound lest flesh fall prey to flesh!!! No need to cook .New trees with nutritious fruit to take care of all nutritional and medicinal... ( sorry delete please. I forgot. No diseases in the new world) ... and 72 virgins...OOOPS sorry..no... got it mixed up with another cultish belief system.

    If the GB really believed their prophecies that government will turn on religion and will seek to persecute JWs in particular, having this compound will make the GB and all the cult leadership vulnerable to capture, imprisonment, or wiping out with one missile. If Warwick is anything like their properties at Wallkill and Patterson, they'll be painted concrete "Soviet style" structures that will begin crumbling as soon as they're built.

    WT is acting in direct opposition to their claimed beliefs. While they claim that everyone will be throwing their money in the streets, WT has been cashing in properties worldwide for that "soon to be worthless" cash. Instead of them growing the organization, it is in contraction with properties and branches liquidate and personel sent away in search of other jobs (nothing like dedicating 30+ years as an unskilled WT drone and getting pushed out into the world during the worst economic downturn in decades). And with so many branches closed and operations consolidated to fewer countries, if the political climate changes in countries like Germany or Canada, WT's fortunes could be quickly changed and/or taxed.

    2 million people showed up in Mecca for the Hajj, ridiculousness abounds.

    You make a compelling point.

    Maybe it's why WT publications hardly ever refer to the specifics of Freddy Franz' eschatology anymore.
