- In 1939 from June 23-25 MADISON SQUARE GARDEN in New York city.
On June 25, Brother Rutherford spoke to the 18,000 or more in that auditorium, as well as to a large international radio audience, on the subject “Government and Peace.” After the discourse had begun, 200 or more Roman Catholics and Nazis, led by several Catholic priests, crowded into the balcony. At a given signal, they set up a terrific howl, shouting “Heil Hitler!” and “Viva Franco!” They used all manner of vile language and threats and assaulted many of the ushers who took action to quell the disturbance. The mobsters did not succeed in breaking up the meeting. Brother Rutherford continued to speak forcefully and fearlessly. At the height of the tumult, he declared: “Note today the Nazis and Catholics that would like to break up this meeting, but by God’s grace cannot do it.” The audience gave support with round after round of vigorous applause. The disturbance became a permanent part of the sound recording made on that occasion, and it has been heard by people in many parts of the world.

In what context did this retransmission take place?
On Saturday, June 24, the I.R.A. (the Irish Republican Army, a Catholic terrorist movement which had been carrying out a campaign of bombing throughout Britain for the past several months) phoned an "official" threat to the London offices of the Society, saying they would take action if the London-Belfast circuit were not canceled for Judge Rutherford's overseas lectures. Quickly following the Saturday evening session of the convention five bombs exploded in the center of London near to the Kingsway Hall, where Jehovah's people had been meeting.
The following day more than 200 policemen plus many plainclothesmen surround- ed the entire vast convention hall, the Alexandra Palace, engaged for the public lecture on Sunday. Similar protection was given to the entire Belfast assembly hall both inside and outside the buildings. There were a few tense moments when sounds of the rioting in Madison Square Garden came over the air waves to the London assembly, since many, including the police, thought this might be the signal for the I.R.A. in Britain to follow suit. However, nothing happened, either in London or Belfast, and every word of this powerful public witness was heard in these two countries.
As told by T. J. Sullivan
During the 1930’s a number of important historical events took place from our organization’s viewpoint. Much opposition was engineered by Catholic Action in Plainfield, Bergenfield and Asbury Park in New Jersey, and it was intended to destroy Jehovah’s people. The clear exposition of the fallacy of the pope’s declaration of a holy year in 1933 by Brother Rutherford, the Society’s president, did much to infuriate the Roman Catholic Church. Their demon-inspired fury was particularly manifested in the attack upon Jehovah’s witnesses at Madison Square Garden in June 1939. The weird evidence of demonic mob control was very pronounced even over the radio. However, despite the opposition Brother Rutherford forcefully presented the entire message, which went out over the air. The people heard and were able to come to their own conclusions regarding the spirit manifested.
After the attack inside Madison Square Garden a number of our brothers were falsely arrested and taken to the police station as well as some of the attackers. Brother Rutherford insisted on going to the police station immediately to see what he could do and to provide our brothers with legal counsel. I was privileged to drive along with him on that occasion. Driving through from the Madison Square Garden to the police station, we saw demonstrated the mad fury of the mob and the restraining power of our God to preserve his people. At the police station we had to struggle through the mob to get in. Assistance of the police was necessary in order for us to make it. Brother Rutherford went over the details of the charges made against our brothers and arranged for their defense, encouraging them. On our leaving, the same demonic mob was still outside. They tried to force their way into the car and bar its progress. It was necessary for some of us to ride on the running boards to keep the crowds from tearing the doors open.
I was scheduled to give the opening talk at the evening session at Madison Square Garden and I wondered what it was going to be like when we returned. It was marvelous to note the change. All the enemies had cleared out and peace and quiet prevailed. During the concluding session of the evening it seemed as though Jehovah stood up and said, ‘Peace, be still,’ and drove the riffraff on their way. w65 8/15 p504

What minute is it possible to hear the confusion?
hi, 26:50 to 33:35
💗
did his words start the disturbance or did it make the planned disturbance half hearted and of course did Jehovah intervene?
I encourage you to read the description under the video, I don't have any more information about it, thank you.
I believe that the opposers had already been sent out. They actually pushed their way into the auditorium so it wasn't anything Rutherford said
I love this Jehovah's people,JW says the word as is , from young to oldest, y'all need be Strong as this Judge R, just read John 16:2,3 ...... truth is truth I pray to be truth and clean
Strong as the earliest brother and sister
No , the truth wasn't pleasing to them
JUDGE RUTHERFORD 🤴 144.000
After letting us know who's not the 144000, then YOU tell us who are the 144000.
Doesn't?
Sound like he is mentioning anything about 144000. He's calling out what's going on in the world at that time. What's wrong with calling for peace and pointing out? Who is responsible? To bowl for the annihilation of Mankind coming from within with these. Satanic religious groups and the government.
