This would seem to refer to our 1957 Watchtower which states that
''using theocratic war strategy, hiding the truth by action and word for the sake of the ministry.''
''Some people will wonder where the line is to be drawn between use of theocratic war strategy in hiding the truth and the telling of lies.''
The Society give the following example to show what we mean,
''A Witness of Jehovah was going from house to house in Eastern Germany when she met a violent opposer. Knowing at once what to expect she changed her red blouse for a green one in the very next hallway. No sooner had she appeared on the street than a Communist officer asked her If she had seen a woman with a red blouse, No, she replied, and went on her way. Did she tell a lie? No, she did not. Rather, she was using theocratic war strategy.........''
From this example, which you may note is very similar to that of Rahab's, it appears that
theocratic war strategy means not having to tell the truth to those not entitled to know it but only if it is for the good of the Truth.

Does the Watchtower teach Jehovah's Witnesses that lying is no sin if it is to protect their organization?
I think you are referring to our 'Theocratic War Strategy' (look it up). Our Society does not teach that 'lying is no sin'. However that doesn't mean that one needs to tell the truth to those not entitled to know if that would protect Jehovah's people. Was Rahab lying? No, of course not..
