Why were the Jehovah's witnesses persecuted during the holocaust?

In many countries Jehovah's Witnesses suffered a great persecution during WW2. Perhaps the greatest persecution occurred in Germany and the Soviet Union. In Germany Jehovah's Witnesses (back then called Bible students - Bibelforscher in German) refused to support Hitler, because they always stay neutral on political matters. This led to their throwing into concentration camps and as a result some of them died. Unlike Jews if a Witness wanted to be released from a concentration camp, he simply had to sign a document stating he no longer want to be one of Jehovah's Witnesses. Very few did this. In Russia the situation was similar. Due to their neutrality Jehovah's Witnesses were persecuted and thrown into prisons. The same happened in other countries as well.

What would happen if someone did not bear witness in the Holocaust?

The wording of the question seems to suggest that most people did in fact 'bear witness' (by standing up for what is right), but many just didn't want to know about Nazi atrocities and genocide. Many people did not fall that easily into the two categories of those who 'bore witness' and those who did not. Many were 'bystanders' ... but even division into three categories is open to criticism.
