• Analysing the Differences Between the Staged and the Real Self-Immolations on Tiananmen Square

  2004-01-01
  Recently when I was browsing China's news web, I noticed that there have been several reported self-immolation incidents in Tiananmen Square in recent months. It is interesting to note that the media and related governmental departments have dealt with these recent incidents in a completely different manner from how they handled the 2001 self-immolation incident, which they attributed to Falun Gong. I have compared these two different types of self-immolation incidents from several perspectives.

• We Must Not Let Terror Become the Prevailing Culture

  2003-12-31
  China has a 5,000-year-old culture, one which emphasizes kindness, righteousness, civility, wisdom, trust, and harmony. To suppress "Truthfulness, Compassion, and Tolerance," Jiang's regime has endeavoured to create a "hate culture" and a "culture of terror." It is equivalent to infusing a slow acting toxin into the bloodstream of the Chinese culture. It is truly degrading our cultural spirit.

• Some Reflections on Christmas Day –To those Detained in China’s Labour Re-education Camps

  2003-12-25
  "In the maze of the Christmas commerce and holiday glitter, my thoughts go out to those who are in the labour re-education camps in China. There are at least a hundred thousand Falun Gong practitioners imprisoned there. As my wife and I mingled in the crowd of Christmas shoppers, I wondered how many of the goods in those shops are made partly or wholly by Falun Gong practitioners, democracy activists, clandestine Christians and others."

• When Hate And Enmity Turn Into A Political Culture...

  2003-12-23
  The hate and enmity, generated from high political pressure, have made the people who are afraid to be dragged into the whirlpool of politics cold and hardhearted. Also, for some personal gains and selfish reasons, they choose to side with the strong and oppress the weak In other words, the hate propaganda, which has developed into a culture, is now deeply implanted in the fiber of the nation. When hate and enmity are a part of the culture of China, what does Jiang's regime, a keen promoter of cultural exchange, have to offer to the world?

Similar to Taylor, Chinese Former Chairman Jiang and his regime have caused the deaths of at least 831 kind, innocent Falun Dafa practitioners, and have brought suffering upon tens of millions of families. At the same time, Jiang has misused his power for personal gain, and arranged for his son, of less than mediocre attributes, to become the Vice-Dean of the Chinese Science Academy.

• Thoughts on Reading the News of Bosnian Serb Setenced to 27 Years for Srebrenica Massacres

  2003-12-22
  On December 2 VOA (Voice of America), published the news that the War Crimes Tribunal in The Hague has sentenced a Bosnian Serb officer, former Captain Momir Nikolic, to 27 years in prison for participating in criminal massacres.We think of the brutal persecution in China, and the torture and killing of Falun Gong practitioners conducted by Jiang Zemin and his criminal groups over the past four years. These criminals will soon be forced to take responsibility for their actions.

• Falun Gong's Welcoming Activities and "Bring Jiang to Justice" Banner Dispel the Jiang Group's Lie that "Falun Gong Opposes the Chinese Government"

  2003-12-14
  Falun Gong practitioners' condemnation of Jiang Zemin's group doesn't mean they oppose the Chinese government. Also, Falun Gong practitioners' extending a welcome for Wen Jiabao's U.S. visit and their plea to severely punish Jiang doesn't mean Falun Gong supports any government, political Party, political system or political figure. It is not an act with political implications, nor is it begging someone. On the issue of the persecution of Falun Gong, practitioners hope all people can position themselves correctly. In the eyes of the practitioners there is no concept of political parties, governments or political power.

• Interview with Plaintiffs in the Lawsuit against Les Presses Chinoises: Hateful Propaganda is a Type of Spiritual Persecution

  2003-12-04
  Les Presses Chinoises has also tried to collect anti Falun Gong signatures in the Chinese community. Their ultimate goal was to label Falun Gong as subversive and evil, a group of people to be kept at a distance and not desired as neighbors, and people that society should fear. As a newspaper, Les Presses Chinoises spread hateful propaganda which had an extremely horrible effect on people's impression of Falun Gong. We had no choice but to file a lawsuit in the Quebec Superior Court against Les Presses Chinoises to protect our belief and our dignity."

• Truth or Fiction? Judge the Tiananmen Square Self-Immolation for Yourself

  2003-12-03
  For some people, it is difficult to believe that the Tiananmen Square self-immolation was a staged event designed to deceive people, because they cannot imagine that a government and the police could do such a shameful and deceptive act. But one thing is clear and every one has seen it on TV, that is, the plastic Sprite bottle that contained gasoline remained intact between Wang Jindong's legs during the entire process. I ask everyone who still thinks the self-immolation is reality to try an experiment. Try and melt a similar size plastic bottle and see how long it will take.

• Hate Propaganda, Psychological Control and Societal Discrimination - Plaintiffs and Witnesses Discuss the Consequences of Les Presses Chinoises's Slander

  2003-12-03
  "This propaganda consists of nothing more than groundless fabrications. Our upper level management distributed this slanderous propaganda to us on a daily basis, as our work assignment. If we did not follow the orders, we would lose our jobs; but if we followed these orders, we would have to betray our conscience by lying to the general public. Each day I struggled between my conscience and economic reality. I often had nightmares in which assassins were chasing me. I was determined not to sell out my conscience or speak against my heart..."

• German District Government Apologises to Falun Dafa Practitioners

  2003-12-01
  During Jiang Zemin's state visit to Germany in April 2002, German police interfered with Falun Gong practitioners' peaceful demonstrations under pressure imposed by the Chinese government. Several cases of infringement of the basic human rights of Falun Gong practitioners occurred. The Ministry of Internal Affairs in Berlin has expressed apologies to Falun Gong regarding this matter.

• Defamatory Propaganda Causes Immeasurable Harm to Society

  2003-11-28
  Even after Les Presses Chinoises was sued in 2002 and ordered to stop its defamation, it continued to carry full-length articles from mainland China that demonized Falun Gong. Then, two questions still exist; what kind of role has Les Presses Chinoises played in defaming Falun Gong, and what harm has it brought to the plaintiffs? With these questions in mind, local reporters from a Falun Dafa website (clearwisdom.net) interviewed 5 plaintiffs from three families, including Yao Qing, Zhang Menghua, Wang Gongshi, Mao Fengying, and Ye Tonggui.

• Looking at the Change in the Name of the 610 Office

  2003-11-19
  The renaming of the 610 Office will not have any effect on the exposing of its crimes to the world. It remains the same organisation, responsible for the same crimes. Whichever name it is given, Falun Gong practitioners can use either at will – if we wish to use 610 Office we shall. If we wish to use the new name, “Purge the Evil Cult Office” then this is nothing for us to be frightened of. It is an opportunity to talk about and expose even more clearly how the propaganda campaign and slander of Falun Gong are an integral part of Jiang’s persecution.

• The Chinese Public's Evaluation of the Chinese Police

  2003-11-19
  "I really hate those police the most, and truly admire Falun Gong. How dare the police prosecute Falun Gong? Why don't the police dare to prosecute the gangsters' community? This is because Falun Gong teaches 'Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance', and they are easy to bully. They do not dare to prosecute the gangsters' community because some of them are involved with the gangsters' community. Wait until I get authority. I'll send all of these abusing thugs to jail!"
