This is the heart of the paradox. Not only did the Witnesses in Germany represent only a very small minority of the population ​ — statistics show them to be some 20,000 for a total of more than 60 million inhabitants — ​ but they were all peaceful citizens who respected the law and threatened nobody, who only wanted to work and bring up their children properly....
Siin ongi selle paradoksi tuum: peale selle et Jehoova tunnistajad moodustasid Saksamaal vaid tühise osa rahvastikust — statistika andmeil oli neid ligikaudu 20000 rohkem kui 60 miljoni elaniku kohta —, olid nad kõik ka rahumeelsed kodanikud, kes austasid seadust ega kujutanud kellelegi ohtu, kes soovisid vaid korralikult tööd teha ja oma lapsi kasvatada.
