Germany: Speech from Human Rights Day in Bremen
2004-12-26"It is now twelve years since Falun Gong, also known as Falun Dafa, came to the public. It is five years since the persecution started. Today, we find that Falun Gong is persecuted in China without cause. Practitioners have to suffer torture and are sent to slave labour camps. The Chinese media disseminates fabricated stories to suppress information about this groundless persecution. We even find that the German media repeats the stories and distorted subject matter about Falun Gong, disseminated by the Chinese regime. I’m sad to say that this is the same regime that perpetrates the persecution." -
An Appeal from a Chinese Student in Switzerland: “Please Release my Mother”
2004-12-18My grandmother and my father were dealt a deadly blow from both their bodies and minds when facing with the sudden change at home. They looked on helplessly as their own family member was illegally kidnapped. Now my grandmother has taken to her bed and always asks when her daughter will be allowed to go home. My father has been warned that he will lose his life if his stroke occurs again and then he will never see his wife again. -
Speech by Lord Thurlow, Former UK Under-Secretary of State, on World Human Rights Day
2004-12-14"In 1999, Jiang Zemin, overriding the wishes of his colleagues in the Chinese Politburo, introduced a campaign to suppress the innocent group Falun Gong for nothing but their beliefs, amounting to no less than 100 millions Chinese citizens. Suppression of people for their beliefs is known under international law as genocide. The Chinese Government is guilty of genocide and those who have introduced this horror that has lasted for more than 5 years must be brought to justice." -

2004-10-16"Out of respect and love for the Chinese people, plus to protect human rights, I cannot remain silent when confronting this brutal and illegal persecution. Human rights is the basic value of human kind, the human rights of everyone should be protected no matter where it is. As a human being, I should offer my help to people who have been persecuted for five years. Therefore, as a lawyer, I have filed lawsuits against Jiang Zemin, Luo Gan and Jia Qinglin in Spain. They are accused of committing genocide and torture." -

Even Jiang himself knew that Falun Gong was not against the Chinese government." -

We treasure it as a precious gift, a gift that develops widely and strongly in a free, democratic and stable society."
