You make me laugh. To suggest that what the JW church believed years ago
is the same as today is insanity. You also failed to research the part
where JW's were also attacked and sought to be eliminated in the Nazi
camps.
JW's are probably nearly as sensitive about the Holocaust as the Jews
are. They do hold, however, that the Jewish *religion* is no longer
relevant (which they believe about every religion except their own), and
that the Jews as a race have no special place with God.
That's hardly institutionalized anti-semetism. In fact, JW's have an
excellent record for their lack of racial discrimination. Now if only
they could fix the sexism inherant in their teachings...
