The Jiang Regime's Use of "Psychiatry" By Huayun (Clearwisdom.net) Over the past five years, Jiang's regime has abused
the psychiatric field to persecute Falun Gong practitioners. This has been a
two-pronged campaign. First, they falsely attributed heinous crimes committed by
mentally ill people in society to Falun Gong practitioners. Second, the
authorities labeled mentally healthy practitioners as mental patients so that
they can send them to mental hospitals and institutions to persecute them. First, the state-run media selected the most blood-curdling murder cases. In
order to connect those homicide cases with Falun Gong, the Xinhua News Agency
and Chinese Central Television fabricated a number of "motives" for
practitioners to commit murder. They fabricated slogans which they claimed were
spoken by practitioners such as, "Killing people is saving people,"
"Killing is a higher form of benevolence," etc. None of these invented
words exist anywhere in Falun Gong books. Sometimes when they were reporting the
same case, the Xinhua News Agency and Chinese Central Television attributed the
same homicide to two different slogans. Let's think about this: if Falun Gong really turned practitioners into
murderers, and there are so many practitioners in China and around the world,
then wouldn't there be a huge number of murder cases everywhere? Why is it that
this never happened outside of China? Why is it that this never happened before
July 20th 1999, when the persecution started? These charges are
clearly fabrications made up to help justify the persecution. The second aspect of this type of persecution is even worse. In many Chinese
forced labor comps and their affiliated hospitals or clinics, detained
practitioners are force-fed or injected with unknown drugs that are harmful to
the central nervous system. Some of the effects of these drugs include partial
or full paralysis, loss of sight and/or hearing, muscular atrophy, amnesia,
organ damage, and psychosis. In some cases, practitioners have died as a result
of the injections. Perfectly healthy practitioners are sent to mental hospitals and labor camps
simply because of their belief. Meanwhile, the crimes committed by the Jiang
regime has attracted attention from the World Psychiatric Association, which
planned to go to Beijing and investigate this issue. However, the effort was
blocked by Chinese authorities, who evidently did not want their crimes to be
exposed. 2004-7-21 Posting date: 7/23/2004 |
