Clearwisdom Commentary: Shooting of Falun Gong Practitioner in South Africa Exposes the Terrorism of Visiting Chinese Officials By Fei Ming, a Clearwisdom commentator
(Clearwisdom.net) Chinese Vice President Zeng Qinghong and Minister of
Commerce Bo Xilai visited South Africa from June 27-29. Falun Gong practitioners
who went to appeal against these Chinese officials' persecution of Falun Gong in
China were shot at by gunmen at around 8:30 p.m. on June 28. At least five shots
hit their car. Mr. David Liang, the driver, was hit in both feet. He was the
only Falun Gong practitioner who was wearing a jacket with "Falun Dafa" written
on it. There is evidence to indicate that this case might be yet another act of
state terrorism by Jiang's group against Falun Gong practitioners.
Zeng Qinghong, Bo Xilai and a few other high-ranking China officials who are
also involved in Jiang Zemin's persecution of Falun Gong have had quite a few
lawsuits filed against them by overseas Falun Gong practitioners during their
visits to foreign countries. This time, Mr. David Liang and other overseas Falun
Gong practitioners went to South Africa and planned to file a lawsuit against
Zeng and Bo. Ruthless government officials such as Zeng and Bo often abuse power
in China, then travel abroad and show off overseas. They were of course fearful
of the legal cases against them, and they were also furious.
In China, Zeng and Bo have the power to order police and special agents from
the National Security Department to arrest people at will in the name of "law
enforcement" or "national security." Under their manipulation, they have the
courts and judges put people in jail at will, and in the name of the law. On
June 10, 1999, Jiang's regime established "610 Offices" (1) to persecute Falun
Gong while bypassing China's judiciary mechanisms. During the past five years,
"610 Offices" have had absolute power over existing laws. They have recklessly
persecuted and brutally killed innocent Falun Gong practitioners. The "610
Office" is very much like the Nazi's Gestapo, and Jiang's regime is a group of
highly corrupt politicians who are bent on state terrorism.
In democratic countries around the world, Jiang and his accomplices find it
much harder to carry out their persecution. These kinds of countries, where
there really is a sense of justice, are not places where a few officials can
pull all of the strings necessary to do whatever they wish. Western countries
have strict legal systems. Jiang and his followers have yet dared to murder
practitioners in public. Is it unreasonable then to suggest, that in order to
vent their hatred, these terrorists would decide to hire gunmen to shoot
practitioners in South Africa, a place where public safety is questionable?
However, this act will only add to their criminal records, and help the
international community see more clearly the fact that these are corrupt
politicians implementing state terrorism.
When Bo Xilai was governor of Liaoning Province in China, he ordered the
arrest of journalist Jiang Weiping, who exposed his corruption, and had him
sentenced to nine years in prison. Bo was notorious for this kind of behavior.
Zeng Qinghong, a henchman of Jiang Zemin, has been in charge of special agents
in the Chinese Communist Party. In the political movement to persecute Falun
Gong, both Bo and Zeng's hands are stained with the blood of innocent Falun Dafa
practitioners. They are the real criminals bent on suppressing others. These
political scoundrels, who rule through terror, will definitely be punished by
the law and by heavenly principles in the future.

with absolute power over each level of administration in the Party and all other
political and judiciary systems. Posting date: 6/30/2004 |
