What more proof is needed that Jehovah ended the covenant with Israel than the evidence of holy spirit being used from Pentecost in the new Christian congregation.
Christians have been persecuted too in death camps, ghettos etc.
The Bible account (where Jews were the chosen nation) is the same book that tells of the Jews handing the Romans illegal authority to have Jesus put to death. Luke chapter 23
The sudden mid day darkness and the Temple curtain being torn in two as well as the earthquake that shook bodies of the dead from their crypts . . all evidence on that day that the Jews KNEW they had been rejected.
To believe that Jehovah's Witnesses suffer or have suffered as severely as members of any major religion is absolutely absurd and delusional. They loosely apply the term "persecution" to any statement or action against the WTBTS or its members, whether its an expression of disinterest in their "preaching work" or a calling out of their failed prophecies, doctrinal contradictions, or corrupt inception. Even the situation in Malawi was caused by an arbitrary administration of policy by the guys in Brooklyn.
Actually they were. Isaiah 43:10, 11 Jehovah says to Jews: ""YOU are my witnesses," is the utterance of Jehovah, "even my servant whom I have chosen, in order that YOU may know and have faith in me, and that YOU may understand that I am the same One. Before me there was no God formed, and after me there continued to be none. I—I am Jehovah, and besides me there is no savior.""
When they killed the God's Son, they stopped being God’s Chosen People. John 1:11-13 talks about Jesus: "He came to his own home, but his own people did not take him in. However, as many as did receive him, to them he gave authority to become God’s children, because they were exercising faith in his name; and they were born, not from blood or from a fleshly will or from man’s will, but from God." Several Jews became Christians, but not the whole nation. Followers of Christ are now the new nation of God.
The nation of Israel was Jehovah’s Witnesses. The leadership went apostate and the nation followed it, except for a few. The few followed Jesus as Master.

The Israelites were Jehovah's chosen people. They rejected Jesus and have been disobedient. Thus Jehovah chose a new people for his name.
Acts 15:14 -- Symeon has related thoroughly how God for the first time turned his attention to the nations to take out of them a people for his name.

Well said Adams Rib
answer: No. We don't need to take on a misleading and incorrect label.
"Jehovah" is a bad guess name for G-d that is used only by Christians, not Jews.
We don't need the title 'witness' either.
No - they don't use God's name.
No - it's the Inuit.
