Israel: Practitioners Hold Activities to Mark Six Years of Persecution (Photos)

Aug. 13, 2005

(Clearwisdom.net) On the evening of July 20, practitioners from all over Israel gathered in front of the Chinese Embassy to peacefully appeal, calling for international action to end the Chinese Communist Regime's rampant persecution of "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance."

Earlier that morning, practitioners held an anti-torture exhibition at a bustling intersection quite close to the Prime Minister's office. Practitioners did the exercises on the street, distributed fliers, and talked with passersby about the ongoing persecution of Falun Gong in China.

Practitioners often ran into one common question: "The security situation in Israel is so bad, why should we be concerned about things happening in China?" The practitioners replied, "As Jews, we experienced the Holocaust, and we have the moral responsibility to support justice and those innocent people who are being persecuted so that the holocaust won't happen again. As our history tells us, the world shouldn't remain silent when atrocities are happening."

Although it has been six years since Jiang Zemin launched the persecution, Falun Gong has been developing even faster despite the persecution. The time to bring Jiang Zemin and the Chinese Communist Party to justice is coming soon.
