  • Further Analysis of the Staged Tiananmen Square Self-immolation

    As Jiang Zemin and his group's tyrannical rule nears its end, they are once again focusing on the staged Tiananmen Square self-immolation--an event that happened four years ago and was full of inconsistencies and deceptions from the beginning. By doing this, they are trying in vain to mislead the public and justify their continuing persecution of Falun Gong.
  • China's Torture and Cover-up Tactics Exposed Through An Infamous Case

    An article from the Bimonthly Review by the People's Net on December 7th, 2004 said: "After 1500 days, the case of killing people to feed dogs in Henan Province was full of doubts." The article described in detail how the police tortured the suspects in order to "solve" the case and claim the reward. In its conclusion, the article said that such actions are all too common.
  • Friends of Falun Gong USA's Statement Regarding the January 21st, 2005, AP Article, "Chinese government shows off repentant Falun Gong followers"

    The "Tiananmen Self-Immolation" incident is a story that was created, and has been repeatedly utilised, by former Chinese leader Jiang Zemin and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) as a propaganda tool to turn public opinion against Falun Gong. However, on Friday, January 21st, 2005, the Beijing bureau of the Associated Press published an article reporting this propaganda as if it were fact, using the CCP's own language.
  • Analysis of the Deceptive Logic Used by the Chinese Communist Party with the "Self-immolation" Fabrication

    For instance Sakyamuni in ancient India and Dharma, a monk in Shaolin Temple, both reached consummation during their time while still alive, showing that consummation does not come with death. Furthermore, Falun Gong clearly forbids killing and suicide with the belief that killing and suicide are extremely serious sins. Anyone committing such an act would almost inevitably bring their cultivation to ruin. It is impossible for anyone to achieve consummation by killing or suicide.
  • Trying to Draw Public Attention Away from Zhao Ziyang's Death, Xinhua News Agency Publishes Hate Inciting Propaganda

    To shift people's attention was always, and still is, a most effective tool for the CCP. For example, two years ago, when the lies about SARS were exposed and the situation had reached a critical point, the Chinese official media had around-the-clock broadcasts about a Chinese mountain climbing team's ascent
  • From the Staged "Self-immolation" to the Chinese Communist Parties Two-Faced Attitude Toward Western Media

    In fact, no matter whether it is the Western media or ordinary citizens, under the "government-organised visit," it's impossible to learn the truth even by speaking with the "self-immolators." However, in any corner of the earth outside of China, one can see the suspicious points of the incident by watching the footage of the CCTV videotape from four years ago. The discrepancies in this tape serve as clear evidence demonstrating the Jiang faction's act of murder and framing
  • Three Short Stories from China: A Policemen and a Criminal Inmate Stand up For Falun Dafa

    On the bus to Zhengzhou City, I distributed materials containing the true facts about Falun Gong to three people. As a result, all the people on the bus asked for more materials. I gave everyone a flyer. A plainclothes policeman also asked for one. Then he asked me to sit beside him. Taking out his police ID to show me, he said, "You are really bold and really courageous! You have to be careful from now on. There are a lot of plainclothes policemen around, so you have to be careful. Today, you were lucky to run into me, because I know the truth."

  • The Epoch Times: Xinhua News Ignores Big Stories and Repeats Old Lies

    Xinhua purposely passed over the most important news, but put great effort into an incident that happened four years ago that has been demonstrated to have been staged by the Jiang regime. But many people have already experienced Xinhua News Agency's unique programming decisions. In Mainland China, many people say that only the date of the news is true in Xinhua News Agency's paper--all the rest is fake.
  • The Chinese Communist Party's "Atheism" is Poison that Destroys the Chinese Culture's Heritage (Part II)

    Falun Gong spread to nearly one hundred million people, from everywhere and every level of society in China. Under several decades of the CCP's brute-force control, which destroyed Chinese traditional culture, many people had become stubborn atheists. However, after practising cultivation and witnessing the miraculous healing of illness, which could not be explained by modern physiology, and even seeing the other dimensions, several decades of atheism's influence disappeared at once.
  • An Open Letter to the Associated Press from the Eastern U.S. Buddha's Study Falun Dafa Association

    It has been, in the truest sense, a Beijing "propaganda victory," as The New York Times called it. If Beijing's claims about the incident were not suspect enough at first, its adaptation and packaging of the incident in subsequent months should be more than enough grounds for suspicion. That Beijing barred foreign journalists from interviewing the victims (while giving State press regular access) for an entire year, and even went so far as to detain those who sought to investigate the story, were obvious indicators that something was afoul.
  • The Chinese Communist Party's "Atheism" is Poison that Destroys the Chinese Cultural Heritage (Part I)

    The traditional culture pays attention to where a life will finally go and reveres gods. It pays attention to "the shore on another side," or "the next life." The Communist evil spectre, on the other hand, wants people to believe only in the present life, to deny the law of cause and effect and retribution, and to only pursue gains in the material world, using whatever means and at whatever cost. Reversing good and evil, the Communist evil spirit was completely incompatible with Chinese traditional culture.
  • Witnessing the Hypocrisy of The Xinhua News Agency: Major News Ignored - Old Lies Re-emerge

    The Xinhua News Agency is aware of its practically non-existent credibility, so it quotes "media from inside and outside of China" in its reports. However, interviews of the referenced media were strictly controlled or outright staged in a fashion similar to the self-immolation, which is comparable to media interviews conducted at Nazi concentration camps during the World War II, when the reporters were led to carefully constructed areas where they could obtain only forged, false images.
  • Persecution of Falun Gong Rampant at Chinese Universities

    Based on a ranking of China's universities and colleges and a simple online search, I was disheartened to learn that 45 of the top 50 universities or colleges have professors, students, staff members, workers, and graduates who are suffering persecution simply because they practise Falun Gong. This is also true of 82 of the top 100 universities or colleges. These simple statistics clearly indicate that the higher education system has been seriously victimised by the movement to persecute Falun Gong
  • 165,000 Solemn Declarations -- A Testament of the Cruelty and Failure of the Persecution Against Falun Gong

    Alex Hsu, a university student majoring in computer science in Beijing. After he was abducted to the brainwashing centre, he signed the statement renouncing Falun Gong. On his way back to the campus, he started to cry. He told the reporter from the Post, "I never believed what I was writing. It was very painful. They forced us to lie. We knew Falun Gong is good, but they forced us to say it was evil." According to the same report, Hsu had since dropped out of school and gone into hiding because he wanted to continue practising Falun Gong.
