Torture 'Victory' Song to be Theme of Chinese Government New Year Show in U.S. Venues

how cute, the songs the people are tortured to for practicing falun gong...we get to hear the new freedom music too...george w. bush, the socialist, sure does hold a place for the chinese dictators in his heart...hopefully we'll get to hear nice music as we're tortured for freedom to save the dictatorship after the nuke goes off.

clinton was awful and liberal for giving the chinese some supercomputers and nuke info., but george w. bush is so fucking conservative for greasing the skids and taking off all restrictions to give them that information, as they threaten to level 200 of our cities...go china!

[align=left]Friends of Falun Gong USA, a NJ based human rights organization, is extremely disturbed about the content of a Chinese New Year performance organized by the Chinese Communist Government, scheduled to be held in the U.S. and Canada.[/align]

It is Friends of Falun Gong USA's understanding that this Chinese New Year celebration features a song entitled "The Same Song" which apparently comes from a familiar TV program shown on CCTV, one of the most influential media mouthpieces of the Chinese Communist Party, since 2000. According to sources, Falun Gong practitioners are forced to learn this song while held captive and face beatings, electrocution, or force-feeding of feces and sludge if they refuse. Whenever a Falun Gong practitioner is "transformed" the first thing he/she is forced to do is to join in singing this song with the police who have broken them. Even prisoners who are not practitioners are said to understand that whenever they hear "The Same Song", it means that another Falun Gong practitioner has been successfully brainwashed.

"To allow a foreign government to come on U.S. soil and covertly communicate in a seemingly harmless little song its triumphs in crushing the mind, body, and spirit of countless innocent people is simply intolerable", says Friends of Falun Gong USA executive director, Alan Adler. "It would be no surprise if the Chinese Communist Government films their performance from landmark American locations, like NYC, so they can turn around and use them as weapons against the thousands still being tortured, claiming that all foreigners support the persecution of the Falun Gong in China. We can't let this happen."

Friends of Falun Gong USA calls on the American government to explore all means to assist in stopping this performance. Additionally, we ask that all venues currently scheduled to hold the show to be aware of its content and the serious role it will likely play in the persecution of Falun Gong in China, and reconsider their contract for this performance with the Chinese Government.
