The Wall Street Journal on Protecting Email Accounts from Attack
2005-07-12The article continued, "Mr. Liu isn't alone, at least among followers of Falun Gong. He says he knows of two other cases in his circle; his email provider, FastMail, confirms the incident and says there have been several other such attempts, all unsuccessful. Jeremy Howard, chief executive of the Melbourne-based email provider, says there is no way of confirming the users' suspicions that agents of the Chinese government are behind the attacks, but he says that whoever has been doing it is highly professional. 'The people involved in this case were more competent and more determined than anybody else we've seen.' " -
Orphan Report: Children Orphaned in China as a Direct Result of the Persecution against Falun Gong
2005-07-11A unified orphan report entitled "Children Orphaned by the Persecution of People Who Practise Falun Gong in China" has been compiled by the Falun Dafa website, Clearwisdom, from its database of Falun Gong practitioners who have been persecuted to death. Although the information that we have collected and are able to collect is incomplete due to the massive information blockade and cover-up by the Chinese Communist Party, these true accounts of what the children have faced over the years reflect very well the extent and nature of the persecution. We hope that you will stand with us to help these children, and rescue them from such a physically and psychologically devastating environment. -
The Epoch Times: Former Chief of Shengyang Justice Bureau speaks of his exile
2005-07-11The CCP's persecution of innocent and kind Falun Gong practitioners made me feel even more hopeless. Acting out of sympathy with them and following my conscience I made use of the power I had to lighten their suffering as much as possible. What I could do was very limited, and could not ease my guilt. I felt ashamed living that way. This was the real motive behind my leaving the CCP. I gave up my high post and good salary without hesitation and came to Canada in September 2001. -
Former Head of the Shenyang City Judicial Bureau Exposes the Gestapo Like 610 Office
2005-07-10Practitioners who refused to be reformed at the Masanjia Forced Labour Camp were sent to Shenyang City. One night Han Guangsheng went to visit the practitioners. Two practitioners shared one room. He remembered one practitioner with the last name Zhao, and another practitioner whose last name was Yin. They told him about the tortures they suffered at the Masanjia Forced Labour Camp, including having their inner thighs pinched, being forced to stay in a half-squat position in the restroom, doing push-ups in the snow and being shocked with high voltage electric batons. -

Those who Persecuted Falun Dafa in the Performing Arts in China Suffer from Karmic Retribution
2005-07-10After the Chinese Communist Party started to persecute Falun Gong on July 20th, 1999, in order to advance his career, Liang Zhou, the older brother of actor Liang Tian, wrote and directed several soap operas that maliciously defamed Falun Gong. One of the soap operas was even broadcast on Channel 8 of CCTV (an international channel) and China Beijing TV station. In addition, his junk operas, such as "Idler, Old Sister Ma," vigorously praised the strict social control and omnipresent brainwashing of the Communist Party. On May 19th, 2001, Liang suddenly died at home from a heart attack at age 44. -
Chinese Communist Party Sent Secret Agents Pretending to be Falun Gong Practitioners to China's Dalian City as Early as 1997
2005-07-09The plainclothes policeman sitting in the middle asked me about the Falun Dafa books, but I refused to tell him anything. Then, a tall plainclothes policeman sitting on the right nudged the policeman in the middle and asked me, "Do you know him?" I had not dealt with the police since April 25th, 1999*. I looked at him carefully and remembered that the policeman sitting in the middle once came to the People's Square practise site to learn Falun Dafa in 1997. At that time, he and several others claimed they were from other places and had come to Dalian City to find a job. -
The Epoch Times: University Takes a Principled Stand
2005-07-09Sydney's University of Technology (UTS) has stood up to pressure from the Chinese Communist Party by refusing to remove mention of a Falun Dafa meditation club from its website. As a result, the UTS website has been blocked in China, which is expected to lower the number of incoming Chinese students, substantially affecting the university's revenue. -
For a Higher Truth: A Photographic Tale of Falun Dafa’s Principled Resistance - Part 2
2005-07-08This is a very amusing photograph. The adult-sized vest embroidered with the three Chinese characters, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, highlights the little girl’s petite body and her innocent face. With pursed lips and an intense look, she holds one hand vertically in front of her chest and the other behind her back. What was she thinking? Apparently, her thoughts were written on the poster board right next to her: “Jiang Zemin, you are the number-one villain in history!” -
Thank You Note Posted on a Front Door in China Testifies to the People's Eagerness to Read the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party
2005-07-08My cousin lives in Fuxin, Liaoning Province. One day she received Parts 6 and 7 of the Nine Commentaries. Upon reading it she felt that the writing was very truthful and solid, and was extremely eager to read the rest. She asked her daughter to write a thank you letter, and then posted it on her front door. The letter basically said: "I've read through parts 6 and 7 of the Nine Commentaries. I really enjoyed reading it and I wish to read the entire Nine Commentaries as soon as possible. Thank you!" -

A Youth in China Shares his Thoughts about Falun Gong in an Exam Paper
2005-07-06Falun Gong is a set of guiding principles that teaches people to be truthful, compassionate, and tolerant by practise. What is "Truthfulness, Compassion, Tolerance?" Truthfulness is asking people to tell the truth, do the truth, and not cheat other people. Compassion is teaching people to be compassionate, and to help those who need help. Tolerance is telling people to be tolerant all the time. How can this possibly be evil? -

The CCP Covertly Pushes a One-Hundred-Day "Strike Hard Movement" to Block the Spreading of the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party
2005-07-04The CCP's so-called "Education Movement to Maintain Advancement" is nothing more than an act of desperation prior to its own demise. Even among the CCP members, how many are there who still believe in the CCP? I also heard a person working at a low-level office, who upon hearing about the "Education Movement to Maintain Advancement," sighed to himself, "[They are] indeed rogues. Rogues." -
After Eliminating the Communist Evil Spectre, My Father Recovered from his Diseases
2005-07-04My father witnessed that those people who had their own thoughts were labelled as "right wing" traitors and persecuted. Many of them died of hunger or exhaustion and were carelessly buried. Some people were buried purposely with their heads or feet left sticking out of the ground. My father witnessed how brutally the Party tortured and killed people, so he was very scared of the Party. He felt that it was a big favour that the Party would allow him to survive. Thus, though my father was not a Communist Party member, he still followed whatever the Party said.
