The Watchtower Corporation has never, to my knowledge, been politically "neutral" (indifferent). Neutral means indifference. Not for or against. In my experience, the Watch Tower Corporation has been "against" every government except their own.
They are not a religion but they are a political party (called "The Society") deeply involved in active, critical un-cooperation with every government on the planet. Their printed goal is to see every government on earth overthrown and replaced by their own and run by them. Their work has been very un-neutral and has been very political. The Watch Tower Society's transparent, surface appeal, to religion is simply to entice superstitious, ignorant people to continue working for them as well as to attempt to give credibility and justification to their efforts to overthrow earthly governments.
In the USA the government is made up of two branches. One, the legislative. And two, the judicial. The Watchtower Corporation has participated in the judicial side of government more than any other religion in the country. They are the MOST active in judicial politics in the USA while claiming indifference (political neutrality). They know full well they are not judicially neutral and to continue the preposterous line of being "neutral" they have to deny that the USA Court system is a part of the Government.
Unfortunately, for them, their people are not as ignorant as they wish, nor are the governments of the world as stupid as they wish either.
