Yes we lost

I think that is what we were all expecting, deep down.

Just a side note - the fact that there is now a "breaking news" box that shows up on the home page of JW.org when there is breaking news in regards to our organization really drives home how deep into the last days we are and just how close we are to the outbreak of the GT.

I can't find it, I saw it yesterday or was it 2 days ago but not anymore, was it deleted?

[jayrtom]

No more appeals? 

[shali]

It only appears when there IS breaking news.  It should come back again because of this decision,

[Midwest-US]

The April decision was upheld.

Jehovah is setting something up (like domino's!), we just don't know what it is yet.

Same SHAM ruling as last time!

SHAMEFUL!  SHAMEFUL! 

SHAM-ful!  

[shali]

The Court just reaffirmed that their President supports and honor's extremists.

Is Kazakhtan using the same law to shut us down there too now?  I forget the reason they have suspended our activity there.

Interesting development. Interesting indeed. Curious to see how Jehovah uses this.

The brothers gave a tremendous witness today, just before the live feed was cut, Bro Sivulsky was giving an interview to lots of reporters. Their reasoning was sound and logical which makes the decision look an absolute nonsense.

19:10 On July 17, 2017, the Supreme Court of Russia missed the last chance to restore law and justice to 175,000 Russian citizens who profess the religion of Jehovah's Witnesses. Only 20 minutes of the meeting required a board of three Supreme Court justices to leave unchanged the decision taken earlier by Judge Yuriy Ivanenko to eliminate and ban all registered organizations of this religion without exception. As there are no effective domestic remedies, believers will appeal to the European Court of Human Rights and other international organizations.

I'm hopping mad. My heart hearts....

[harmania]

Really sad to see this happen, not only for Russian brothers and sisters, but sad for all those other countries too who are under ban. But if we are soon entering into GT, my sadness changes into excitement and joy, because we know what is after that!

[cricket246]

I wonder what they will do now? If they will act immediately

What a bad joke. It was decided before it started. But the dear brothers did a great job and anyone with an honest heart can see how unfair this was.

[shali]

I feel the violence against our brothers and other unlawful actions will escalate now, people will become emboldened now that the decision to label us as extremist has been reaffirmed. They need our prayers more now than ever!

Didn't understand a word of Br. Yaroslav Sivulskiy's press statement, but I think the next step would be the ECHR - a much greater audience!!!
