Why does nobody ever recognize Jehovah's Witnesses in these stories. They wore purple Triangles. They had a camp within the camp. Ask this Rabbi. They were separated by barbed wire from the the rest of the camp. 2500 Witnesses were brutally tortured and beheaded by the Nazi regime. There persecution was even worst than what the Nazi's did to the Jews. Do the research see for yourself. It is at the Holocaust museum. These people must also be noticed and there story must be told. What is the public afraid to learn about these passive non violent people. I am tired of always hearing about the Jews. Come on now I am making the challenge do an honest non biased story about the Jehovah's Witnesses. It will not happen because nobody has the integrity to do so. So they come to your door on a Sat. morning so what. Do you have the guts to ask why they go door to door. I doubt it. I bet this comment will not even be posted because you are afraid to post it. Just sweep the witnesses under the rug. They're story is also a part of 20th century history let it be told. They were the only religion to speak out and warn the world about what was happenning in Nazi Germany. How would history have been changed if the Catholics spoke out., or the lutherans? Has anybody ever used there brains and noticed that the Vatican is in Rome Italy. Italy was on the side of Germany in WWII. That's wright the pope in Hitlers back pocket. Not just the pope but the entire Catholic Church. Why did the Pope bless the troops of Germany and Italy ,but condemned the catholic troops of the U.S.
