Persecution of Falun Gong: A Tragedy for the whole of China and a Chance for Europe to Defend Human Rights
President Jiang Zemin, who is responsible for the crackdown, has brought out the worst in people by manipulating their fears and weaknesses and using these to harm others. Those that are greedy for money are given financial inducements to participate in the persecution, those that crave power and recognition are given awards and promotions as reward for torturing and killing, criminals and sadists are given free reign to abuse Falun Gong practitioners and those who are afraid of the bullying nature of Jiangs regime are cowered into submission. European countries have not escaped his negative influence either. His trips to Europe forced individual governments to compromise the freedoms of their citizens and the integrity of their laws. This caused ill feeling and discontent amongst the general public. We hope all European citizens and our representatives in power can step forward to condemn the indefensible persecution of Falun Gong as well as to stand up for the right to believe in Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, which are the basic tenents of Falun Gong.
