When the green or golden handshake is in danger to turn brown, or transparent, the power balance shifts.

whoever wrote that fictitious account has not been among a bunch of undisciplined soldiers with a mother and her 15 year old daughter.
a bullet would be the least of their worries, or a more merciful fate.

Ah, the good old days. there was actually prior to 1975, the rotating elder arrangement, where the newly created elder positions, were rotated between all the appointees. Imagine
in September the humblest elder became the president. The bullys, big and small really really hated it.
It made the coming 1975 paradise more believable, utopia in governance had already arrived.

The related "new light" is, that these verses in Isaiah, so favoured in the H2H work in the past, do
not refer to the "New System, " but the returnees from Babylon's captivity hundreds of years before the Christian Era.
Current wt doctrine is though, that survivors and resurrected ones will make up the Rebel Force after the 1000 years are ended.

Missed opportunity of Jehovah’s Witnesses
by Abraham1 injesus had foretold that people of "last days" would “faint out of fear” because of things such as “sea-level rise’ as part of “signs of last days” in luke 21:25. bible translators—including new world translation of jehovah’s witnesses—missed the real meaning as they translated it as “roaring of the sea and its agitation.” (https://www.jw.org/en/library/bible/nwt/books/luke/21/).
more careful translations such as niv put it: “roaring and tossing of the sea.” (https://biblehub.com/luke/21-25.htm) word for “tossing” is σάλου (salou), from saino; i.e., billow,” (swell outwards).
thus underlying thought is like balloon swelling, or water flowing outwards, as though ready to roll over, thus points to the modern terminology “sea-level rise.” biblos interlinear translation (int:) translates it as “of [the] sea and rolling surge.” “rolling sea.” (a greek lexicon to the new testament, edward robinson (d.d., page 416) (a greek lexicon to the new testament on the basis of dr. robinson ... by c. robson).. jesus’ original use of the wording “tossing of the sea” is another way of saying “sea-level would rise” as a result of pollution of air.

A: The word "rolling" actually accurately describes a wave travelling through the surface of the water. It roars only when it collapses and breaks, then foams. Further out, waves are actually eerily quiet. Surfing there a serene experience. So,
The tsunamis are perhaps the most fear inspiring phenomena of the kind, Sealevel heightening will bring all waves closer. Some Oceanfront properties not the best investment. The wt move from Brooklyn to Warwick up NY state perhaps an over reaction. . No more early morning surfing for bethelites.

The reason I became a jw 1957: Rev 11:18. " time has come to destroy those destroying the Earth " NIV in ww2, jws were facing death rather than bear arms, raise furry animals, dig tank trenches, which would have supported the war mongers that destroyed millions. now:
wt was among the greatest devastators in deforestation for pulp & paper production, Now it is others, the flyer industry, excessive plastic packaging, wasteful energy use. --so, like
Bezos also said : " only a few humans will be allowed to stay on earth."
if wt inc embraced environmentalism, it would be the first time they did something useful.

waton -- orcas, eh?
LV : pardon me if I am wrong, the flippers certainly look like killer whales, the markings on the belly unfamiliar in the local pds here, snout area looks like filter eaters.. I never got past the surf breaks on my longboard, but local orcas have impressive top fins.
