(Clearwisdom.net) On June 15, Falun Gong practitioners in New York City held a dramatic performance in Times Square. The program included a puppet show entitled "Chinese Dictator Jiang Zemin's Worst Nightmare," in which Jiang dreamt he was tried in the Court of Human Decency and Morality and sentenced for his crimes against humanity.

The judge in the "Court of Human Decency and Morality" sentences Jiang for his crimes against humanity. Jiang is depicted as dreaming he is punished in burning flames.	The puppet show: "Chinese Dictator Jiang Zemin's Worst Nightmare" -- the crowd learns the facts of the persecution while enjoying the show.

Falun Gong practitioners pointed out that the show was created to remind people that dictator Jiang's worst nightmare is going on in reality. Now there are several lawsuits brought against him in US and European courts for the crimes he committed in persecuting Falun Gong.

Through this puppet show, New York city residents and tourists got opportunity to learn what he was thinking and what kind of defense he would offer and how he would be sentenced to be guilty in persecuting Falun Gong, in suffocating Hong Kong with Article 23 and infringing humanity when he was put on trial in Court of Human Decency and Morality.

The puppet show started like this: Jiang could not tell where he was in the dream and did not know what happened. The judge said, "It is Court of Human Decency and Morality. The only trial proceeding is based on facts. Today is your judgment day. Jiang claimed, "You cannot do this. I control the army, I control the court. Don't you know?! You cannot touch me. Soldier!! ..." The Judge said, "Your soldiers cannot help you here. If you did not commit the crimes, you do not need to be afraid. Judgment in heaven is absolutely fair. Good will be rewarded with good, evil will be rewarded with evil."

The Chinese dictator Jiang puppet dreamt that he was above the interest of China; As long as Falun Gong practitioners gave up their belief everything would be alright. However he had never expected that Falun Gong practitioners would never give up their belief. The Puppet Jiang refused to acknowledge the fact that he refused to hold a peaceful dialogue with Falun Gong practitioners. He tried to defend himself, "Whatever I did, you do not have evidence."

The drama consisted of several Falun Gong practitioners whose family members were persecuted in China giving their testimony. Ms.Feng Yuan talked about her 60 year old mother who was tortured mentally and physically because she refused to give up Falun Gong; Ms. Lizhi Zhang talked about her sister who was sentenced to forced labor camp because of her belief in Falun Gong. She questioned puppet Jiang, "My sister could not go home even though she has family. Do you know how much my grandmother, my parents and whole family suffered because of your decision to eradicate Falun Gong?"

Reporters who once worked in China, friends of Charles Li who is still detained in China and other people who themselves and their family members were persecuted in China also came onto the stage to testify. Then the judge gave his sentence, "Jiang Zemin, I find you guilty of genocide. You will be punished forever."

Puppet Jiang cried, "No, No. " When he suddenly woke up, he said, "It is just a bad dream. Oh, it can't be too bad." Then the real Judge said, "Jiang Zemin, It is time for your trial." Jiang was extremely terrified.

Now there are lawsuits in US and Swiss courts to investigate Jiang's crimes persecuting Falun Gong.

In between the show Falun Gong practitioners told the stories of those persecuted in China. The puppet show attracted many people passing by. Other Falun Gong practitioners either held banners or distributed flyers or collected signatures to support the lawsuit against Jiang.

Many people sign their name in support of bringing Jiang to justice.

The puppet show received unanimous approval from tourists and spectators. Ms. Yan, one of the organizors said, "We had this idea; to use puppet show to convey this issue and help people people become more concerned for the suppresssion and persecution of Falun Gong in China over the last 4 years. Falun Gong practitioners are from all walks of life, many of them with higher education, and many talents. For example the gentleman performing the puppet Jiang is a computer engineer.

The show will be performed in other areas to let more people be concerned with the persecution of Falun Gong."
