From June 23 to June 30, China's Sinosat-1 satellite was interrupted by images of Falun Gong. As usual, the Chinese dictator's mouthpieces, Zhongxin News and Xinhua News Agency, made all kinds wild accusations towards Falun Gong: "violating the law," "jeopardizing state security," etc.
If Jiang's government would let Falun Gong speak and let them act in self-defense through legal procedures, I believe nobody would have resorted to this kind of measure to make their voice heard. However, with all media in China criticizing and slandering Falun Gong; with Falun Gong practitioners being arrested arbitrarily and tortured brutally; with their basic human rights (including the right to live) losing legal protection, even losing the right to use lawyers; facing the danger of even being shot on the spot if they post truth-clarifying materials -- what can people do to speak up for justice for themselves?
It has been three years since the media under Jiang's regime has been slandering and defaming Falun Gong in high gear, instigating hatred against Falun Gong practitioners among people who are not aware of the truth. All of the dictatorship's tools of violence are being used against those kind and unarmed people: arresting people, beating people, brutally torturing people, even torturing many Falun Gong practitioners to death. Seeing so many people believing in Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance, the dictator is not comfortable, and he kills people because of this. Having no opportunity to speak up, even if Falun Gong practitioners have resorted to TV program interruption (though so far there is no evidence to support this conclusion), is it too much? Not at all. It is akin to being in an iron house without any windows: if you know that someone is about to be suffocated to death, should you or should you not open an outlet to let air in? Of course you should. According to the dictator's logic, however, your seeking an outlet to stay alive is jeopardizing security and committing a big crime.
Let us examine who exactly has been disrupting the peace. Just during the recent New Year holiday, Hubei Province's Dianwen, Hunan Province's Jiang Laisheng, Jilin Province's Lu Shuqiu, Chongqing City's Liu Chunshu and Gansu Province's Hung Zhiyi, and others, all Falun Gong practitioners, have been persecuted and tortured to death. Just during World Cup Final, Heilongjiang Province's Wan Shujun and Wong Xiaochun were tortured to death. Every day a large number of Falun Gong practitioners suffer from extremely brutal torture. Every week, several Falun Gong practitioners lose their lives. Is this then the "peace" that people need?
Who then is violating the law? When Jiang has arbitrarily deprived Falun Dafa practitioners of their rights to employment, education and living, when he has rampantly arrested and brutally murdered practitioners, where is the law? When Jiang and his accomplices have wildly defamed and slandered Falun Gong and its founder, where is the law? When they recklessly put overseas Falun Gong students on a blacklist, did they think about the law? In the hands of Jiang's gang, the law is a whip to attack people, to attack anyone who does not agree with him, instead of a set of rules to apply to themselves. What then makes them even worthy of talking about the law?
Let's examine further to see who is jeopardizing state security. Falun Gong has been introduced and taught for over ten years, benefiting hundreds of millions of people; yet hundreds of millions of people have been persecuted by the government. According to a previous large-scale, random survey conducted by China's experts, Falun Gong's therapeutic efficacy exceeded 95%. Falun Gong teaches people to cultivate their minds to be benevolent, which has had a positive effect on improving social order. However, ignoring various social problems, Jiang has mobilized large numbers of armed police, public security police, plainclothes police, spies and other government agents for the surveillance, arrest and murder of innocent people, creating extreme terror on a large scale. Is this not jeopardizing state security, then? If they don't admit that all these long years of broadcasting programs that defame and slander Falun Gong is jeopardizing state security, how then can a few seconds of Falun Gong truth-clarifying pictures jeopardize state security?
The positive development of any country cannot be separated from people of good moral qualities. When Jiang cracks down on people's good nature and desire to become benevolent; when he connives against people with lies and violence; when moral decay is permeating the entire country; when corruption, embezzlement, fraud, entrapment, cheating and defrauding prevail; when terrible crimes are left unchecked while the consequence of posting a flyer with the words, "Falun Dafa is good" is to be subject to the policy of "beating even to death, counted as suicide if beaten to death" and "cremated locally without identifying the body", what kind of dangerous future is Jiang leading China to? Is there such a thing as public security in China?
This interruption of the satellite program is an action of justice to maintain justice. Besides, Falun Gong practitioners have consistently used absolutely peaceful measures to make their voices heard! If you were to put yourself in their shoes, imagine how difficult it would be to continuously use peaceful measures, and how even more difficult to insist on using peaceful measures on a long-term basis. It is truly amazing and remarkable that so many Falun Gong practitioners have been able to stick to peaceful measures to appeal amidst the cruel persecution. This is a great blessing for the Chinese people; this is also a test of the Chinese nation's moral fortitude.
Seeing the few minutes of satellite program interruption made Jiang so furious that he mobilized the national media for another round of large-scale verbal attack. Why? It is because he has fooled people for three years, and he has committed a lot of unconscionable deeds that he has tried to hide. If people who have been kept from the truth are to find out the truth, will the dictator who has committed all these evil deeds not be scared? For a dictator who survives on hiding behind a black curtain, is there anything scarier than exposure in the sunlight?
The fog of delusion will eventually clear up. Heaven's law will clearly and naturally determine today's right and wrong, and will identify the kind and the wicked. Dear readers, I hope you will look at the situation with a clear head and come to your own conclusions.
