ā”debian-...@lists.debian.orgb Dear Friend, Sorry for bothering you, but we really require your support. We have put up a petition on our website " uncensoredchina.net ". Itās against the forcible removal of organs from innocent practitioners of Falun Gong in China. Please sign this plea. We need your voice to stop these misconducts against humankind. Feeding your family by selling a kidney? UNSUBSCRIBE We have read and heard about impoverished people in small towns and country sides who, in order to clear family debts, are exploited by illegal agents. In one of the readers' correspondence columns in the International Herald Tribune, a man in Chennai offered to sell his kidney in order to feed his family. That man was forced by the needs of life. He was without a job, and his wife and three kids were hungry. This situation touched the hearts of a lot of people such that, in the end, he did not need to sell his kidney, because a rich individual helped him by offering him some money and a job. In other situations, a kidney "sale" may take place for mutual benefit. The effort to save a person with kidney failure becomes the central activity, not the process of selling the organ. The situations in these two cases evoke a powerful sense of compassion and understanding.This is very different from the phenomenon to which Falun Gong practitioners in China are subjected. A cruel form of organ harvesting is taking place on a large scale in China, a circumstance far from humanity. Before the Chinese government cracked down on the peaceful meditation practice on July 20, 1999, at least 70 million people were practicing Falun Dafa around China. Falun Dafa followers who follow the principles of truthfulness, kindness and forbearance, became a soft target for former president Jiang Zemin, who could not accept the growing popularity of the practice. Since Jiang illegalized Falun Dafa over 16 years ago, followers have been systematically imprisoned tortured, and murdered for their organs. There is substantial proof indicating that Chinese transplantation centers, as well as the police departments, military, and judicial systems, are making large monetary gains by taking the lives of healthy, innocent people, namely Falun Dafa followers and other prisoners of conscience.
