Under Pressure from the Chinese Embassy, Police in United Arab Emirates Bar Practitioners from Revealing the True Facts about Falun Gong
2005-01-26
This was the second time practitioners were harassed by the Chinese Embassy in the United Arab Emirates. In 2002, when Ms. Wang Yuzhi was distributing flyers to people in the United Arab Emirates exposing the persecution she suffered in Wanjia Labour Camp in China, the Chinese Embassy put pressure on United Arab Emirates authorities to have Wang repatriated to China. Later, the Canadian government intervened and rescued her, letting her depart to Canada. -
A Look at the Chinese Communist Parties Efforts to Promote the Staged "Self Immolation" All Over Again
2005-01-25The aftermath was staged equally carefully. There was an "Aunt Liu" who failed in her attempts to set herself on fire. She told the whole story on TV. In concert with the hospital interviews and finger pointing by the so-called friends and family members of the "participants," the fraud that instilled the hatred in China's populace toward Falun Gong was thus produced. -

Epoch Times: WPA "Compromises" Its Principles
2005-01-24The psychiatric abuse plays an integral role in this campaign of terror. On the one hand, it stigmatises the victims, by suggesting to the Chinese public that there may be something wrong with them. On the other hand, there is hardly any torture more terrifying than the abuse of psychiatry. Massive doses of psychotropic drugs rob the victims of their will and reason. -
The Epoch Times: Charles Lee and Martin Luther King: Criminals or Heroes?
2005-01-23
Although one was murdered and one is currently jailed in China, what the two have in common is the courage and integrity to use non-violent action to uphold justice and stand up for people's freedom at great risk to themselves.

Examples of Fabricated News in China
2005-01-20Hunan Province planned to select the 100 most advanced towns based on strong industrial and agricultural indices. When investigators came to Jiepai Town, the town's leadership bought tons of rice weed from nearby villages and ordered workers to burn them in each chimney. Seeing the heavy smoke, journalists from the investigation team thought that the industry index of Jiepai Town was among the highest in the province, and they selected Jiepai Town as one of the 100 most advanced towns. Leaders in Jiepai Town were pleased. -

The Price of Shopping at the Dollar Store
2005-01-19
I stood in front of an iron cage prop watching a female Falun Gong practitioner acting as an enslaved victim forced to make toys. She carried wounds and scars revealing the prison guards’ violence, and looked weary and sad. Another Falun Gong practitioner acting as a prison guard stood outside the cage prop, staring fiercely at the enslaved Falun Gong practitioner. -
The 6-10 Office Becomes the Biggest Distributor of the "Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party" in China
2005-01-18As people overseas are discussing how to break through the news blockades in China to more rapidly disseminate the "Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party" (Nine Commentaries), the Nine Commentaries series was already rapidly and silently circulating among the high level officials in China. Some insiders said that the information source was still the Internet, but the disseminators of the "Commentaries" were not people outside China or dissidents inside China, but certain people in the Chinese Communist Party itself. -
Thoughts on International Human Rights Day: Do People in China Have the Same Rights as Other People?
2005-01-18Human rights are the basic rights of human beings. Naturally, everyone has them. Westerners have them. People in China should have them too.
