At the end of February 2004, the Chinese Anti-Cult Association led by Jiang Zemin, came out with a classified document entitled, "Notice regarding successfully preventing 'Falun Gong' [slanderous word omitted] organization from sabotaging activities [1] during the 'Two National Conferences period." [2] This document was officially cited in classified documents distributed by provincial and municipal governments on March 2, 2004.

Jiang's order targets people who practice Falun Gong. This was confirmed by what was recently published on Minghui Net regarding this new round of intensified persecution against Falun Gong launched nationwide. The purpose of this article is to expose the evil, analyze the true nature of the classified document, and provide information, in a timely fashion, to all the organizations and media in the world that care about the issue of Falun Gong.

2. We also have copies of the classified documents sent out by many provinces, cities, and local governments.

Abstract:

The facts presented in this article provide the international community and human rights organizations with evidence of recent human rights abuses in China to help people gain a clearer understanding of the nature of Jiang Zemin's political group.

The article also aims to help people better understand the nature of the battle between good and evil, and hopes to give people greater faith that good will overcome evil.

The article also reveals the despicable means used by Jiang Zemin's political group, which are comparable to those employed in the most barbaric wars, invasions and political campaigns in history.

Regarding the National People's Congress held in Beijing, Jiang's political group, using its typical method of "passing on the spirit of the central government," came out with a policy directive that specifically targeted Falun Gong practitioners. It also forced all levels of administrative bodies in the nation to act accordingly.

"Passing on the spirit of the central government," without exception, takes two paths, known among officials as the "dark way" and the other being the "bright way." The "bright way" mainly refers to conveying the government orders in the format of secret or top-secret documents, which are usually written formally with elegant and dazzling words, so that local officials can actually see the documents and act accordingly. Once the "bright way" documents are received, the higher authorities will immediately make "dark way" phone calls or use verbal communication to further explain the actual objective and convey the political tone of the documents, while at the same time, leave no written evidence for the subordinates to keep.

Jiang's group persecutes Falun Gong practitioners by using both the "bright way" and the "dark way." This point can be proven by looking at the so-called "classified or top-secret" documents that were distributed by the provinces, prefectures, counties, and townships in China. Viewing the contemporary mindsets of Chinese people in terms of psychology, we know that the low-level officials in the Party have a subservient mindset, and display a kind of "respect and flattering" toward their bosses. So for any central government documents that come in the "bright way," the local governments will for sure add the words of "Coming from the Central Government" or "Coming indirectly from the Central Government" to the local governments' "classified or top-secret" documents. The local governments will use these words to explain the source of the documents, and in the meantime, compel their subordinates to follow the directives. Regarding the transmitting of "The Central Government's spirit" during the time of the "Two National Conferences," we can see from the available classified or top-secret documents that the order came directly from Jiang Zemin's group.

Following "The Central Government's spirit," the Anti-cult Association came out with it's classified document at the end of February. It was sent to all central government branches, provinces, cities, counties, districts, townships, and towns, without omitting any government bodies. The content of the document completely targets Falun Gong, and it laid out the policies, strategies, and measures that were to be used to persecute Falun Gong during the "Two National Conferences." When the document was sent out, it was also stamped with "Urgent Notice," along with the word "classified." The officials could directly read the original document if their ranks were high enough, while those whose ranks were not high enough were only told verbally.

[Quotes from the document:]

"At the present time, activities of Falun Gong are increasing. The founder of Falun Gong has made public appearances, and they want to move the emphasis of the activities to Mainland China. Falun Gong members inside and outside China have been using the Internet to cooperate with each other and engage in propaganda activities. [3] They have adjusted the propaganda strategies inside China, and some key members [4] of Falun Gong have openly held activities. According to the number of Falun Gong cases, which have been registered or solved, Falun Gong activities are rapidly increasing, especially when the "Two National Conferences" are about to start. Our task is very important and arduous... "

[quoting again from the document:]

1. Learn the situation even better and improve understanding. Correctly recognize that the present struggle [against Falun Gong] is complicated and important. Take the task of guarding against "Falun Gong" as the core task during the "Two National Conferences" period. Maintain a high-level alert and take all efforts to make sure that no mishap happens."

2. Focus on key tasks and strengthen prevention efforts. During the "Two National Conferences" period, the key tasks of prevention include strictly preventing key members of Falun Gong from going to Beijing, preventing their local assemblies and extreme incidents, and preventing them from using technical means to spread their propaganda, etc.

All related departments should do well in prevention and investigation and take necessary measures to bring key Falun Gong members under strict control. Assist the related departments to actively track down those who are at large. Ascertain the responsibilities of watching, controlling, and educating those who have left their homes specifically so as to ensure that the goal of 'no one going to Beijing' is achieved.

3. Ascertain responsibilities, and strengthen on-duty system. Related units must co-operate with the comprehensive administration offices and local police stations in their area, strengthen patrols and watches, and guard the paths of TV optic fiber cables in business and residential areas. During the "Two National Conferences" period, related units must make strict on-duty arrangement to ensure trouble free communication 24 hours a day, and to ensure "zero reports" every day. If any event occurs that involves Falun Gong, it must be reported immediately.

In China, people who went through the Cultural Revolution and people of a certain age all know that the so-called "classified" document is mostly for controlling and punishing people; if a "classified" document is issued, it means a certain group of people are in trouble. If it were something good for all people, it would have already been published through newspapers and broadcasting stations.

From the document we can see that there is essentially no improvement in the human rights situation in China, even though the Chinese government has recently released several dissidents who had been detained for years. It has become a habitual practice of the Party (CCP) to release several dissidents as a show whenever there is an international agenda presented about human rights in China. However, this does not mean that the Chinese government leaders are relaxing their political control, especially over Falun Gong practitioners. We hope that the governments of different countries recognize the CCP's nature, and continue to raise agendas and resolutions in the United Nation's Human Rights Committee about human rights issues in China.

The value of the information provided in the document is that it not only allows us to recognize that Jiang's political group is not sincere about human rights issues; more importantly, it strengthens the belief of kind hearted people that righteousness will defeat the evil.

From the "classified" document, we can see the sad state of Jiang's political group. "Falun Gong has increased their activities; our tasks are very important and very arduous ..."

Many Chinese people experienced the mental torture and torment of the souls through out various political movements. Every political movement was a tragedy that ended with the people being suppressed yielding to the persecution. Even Liu Shaoqi, Chairman of the country at that time, was overthrown in three days when they wanted to overthrow him. However, the situation is very different this time with regards to the suppression of Falun Gong practitioners who believe in the principle of "Truthfulness-Benevolence-Tolerance." Jiang had demanded at the beginning to eliminate Falun Gong in three months, but almost five years have passed and Falun Gong practitioners have not yielded to the suppression and they are still steadfast in their belief.

The "classified" document stressed the policy of ascertaining responsibility, "strengthen the patrolling and monitoring and guard the paths of the TV optic fiber cables in business and residential areas. During the 'Two National Conferences,' related units must make strict on-duty arrangement to ensure trouble free communication 24 hours a day, and to ensure 'zero reports' every day." From this, we can see the magnificence of Falun Gong practitioners in China. The tapped cable TV programs have brought about a huge psychological impact to the people; they have awakened people to the truth.

Why did Jiang Zemin want to step up the patrol and inspection the TV optic fiber cables in residential and business areas? It is because he did not want the people to learn the truth about their persecution against Falun Gong.

Reading about "patrolling and monitoring the paths of the TV optic fiber cables," people are reminded about the Japanese invaders' "patrolling and monitoring the paths of the railroads" during their occupation in China. When the war against the Japanese invasion reached its critical period, the Japanese army could only arrange its troops in the large and middle cites in their occupied area and along the railroad paths. To defeat the Japanese army, the railroad had to be turned over to cut its supply line. In the past, Jiang Zemin had a Japanese style education in the occupied area during the war against Japan's invasion of China; now he uses all the same fascist techniques to deal with the Chinese people. Furthermore, during the "Two National Conferences" period, Jiang Zemin again brazenly pushed the policy of "patrolling and monitoring the paths of the TV optic fiber cables" to deceive the people in China. Jiang Zemin, what kind of "paths" are you patrolling and monitoring; if it is the "paths" owned by the people and if you are on the side of justice, do you need to patrol and monitor people?!

This document will lead kind hearted and reasonable Chinese people to carefully and ethically logically think about things.

The "classified" document makes people realize the essential development of the battle between the righteous people and evil minded people. Another point worth mentioning is that concerning the "Two National Conferences," Falun Gong was the only group that was targeted in the document. This also shows that Jiang's political group does not take any notice of other groups. This is because Falun Gong represents righteousness and justice and is the only group that non-violently persists to uphold the freedom of belief and expose the evil persecution. Any other group that upholds justice, in their future activities, might as well adjust their focus and put more energy and time in supporting Falun Gong.
