Kui Huang’s Stories of CCP’s Crime Againt Basic Human Rights

On July 18th, 2008, Falun Gong practitioners from all over the world and people from all walks of life gathered together in front of the White House to appeal the persecution of Falun Gong.

Over 3000 people are confirmed to have been tortured to death during this grueling 9 years taken from incomplete statistics. The actual number is suspected to be much higher. Some of those who went to appeal have personally gone through the persecution and witnessed the CCP’s brutality.

China Goes Milli Vanilli as Japan Tries Old Ways

Commentary by William Pesek

Aug. 15 (Bloomberg) — It was China’s Milli Vanilli moment.

Beijing officials got caught in a lip-synching act of Olympian proportions. Communist Party officials put a cuter girl before the cameras at the opening ceremony instead of the real singer, whose imperfect teeth reportedly didn’t make the grade.

No one doubted China would put on its best face for the Olympics — it just acted too literally. New York Times columnist Gail Collins called the girl the “Potemkin performer.” Headline writers connected the dots to the downfall of a 1980s pop group whose Grammy Awards were revoked when similar truths came out.

WELCOME to the Berlin Olympics Mark II. Anyone possessed of historical awareness must have recognised the acute sense of d?j? vu attending Friday’s Olympic opening ceremony in Beijing. The massed performers, the visually impressive tableaux executed by well-drilled automata, the glorification of nation, state and leadership ? this was Berlin 1936 revisited.  Whence comes the compulsion to appease totalitarian regimes on sporting occasions? Do we imagine the atmosphere of good fellowship will soften the sinews of genocide, instead of according false credibility and reinforcing the arrogance of dictators?  What happened in the nine years following the Berlin Olympiad? So, what exactly are we doing in Beijing, apart from
topping up our endless reserves of self-deception?
