Bis heute gehoren die Zeugen Jehovas zu den weitgehend vergessenen
Opfern des NS-Regimes. Sie wurden bereits Mitte 1933 und von da an
mit unerbittlicher Harte bekampft. Keine andere
Religionsgemeinschaft hat mit einer vergleichbaren Geschlossenheit
und Unbeugsamkeit dem nationalsozialistischen Druck widerstanden.
Der Bekennermut der "Bibelforscher" beschaftigte zeitweilig hochste
Stellen in Justiz, Polizei und SS. Sie waren die einzige Gruppe,
die ungeachtet drohender Todesstrafe geschlossen den Kriegsdienst
verweigerte. Die Auswertung bislang unbekannter Archivalien,
Interviews mit Uberlebenden und die kritische Auseinandersetzung
mit ihrem Schrifttum bilden die Basis fur diese erste umfassende
sozialgeschichtliche Darstellung uber die Verfolgung der Zeugen
Jehovas im Nationalsozialismus. The religious community of Jehovas
Witnesses is one of the almost forgotten groups of Nazi victims.
Jehovas Witnesses constituted no more than a half per mille of the
German population, about 25,000-30,000 people, but they were one of
the most fiercely persecuted religious groups in the Third Reich.
They even were the first group to be outlawed by the Nazi regime,
as early as 1933. In spite of this, they continued in their
resistance, eoften arning incarceration in the concentration camps.
Even there, they refused to work for the armaments. The collective
refusal of their men to serve as soldiers in the war led many of
them to their deaths by court martial."
