John Batchelor had a fascinating guest on his radio program tonight -- Dr. Wang Wenyi.
While introducing her, Batchelor called Wang a "21st century hero." He deemed her heroic because she "spoke the truth to a tyrant," the unelected, mass-murdering Hu Jintao.
Wang, a physician and a Falun Gong practitioner, said that it was the atrocities being committed by the Chinese government, particularly live organ harvesting, that prompted her protest last week at the White House lawn.
Right now in concentration camps in China, the communist government and their operatives have incarcerated at least 200,000 people. They've committed no crimes. They are innocent; yet according to Dr. Wang, no one comes out of the labor camps alive.
She noted that between 2001 and 2003, thousands of Falun Gong practitioners have been victimized.
On the Internet organs are advertised as being available within two weeks. Anyone even vaguely familiar with people waiting for transplants knows that it can take years to find a suitable match. It's impossible to guarantee an organ so quickly, unless there is an organ farm available.
These innocent people are held in facilities and their blood types and tissue types are documented and kept in a database. When someone comes looking to buy a kidney or a heart, the Chinese communists simply kill an individual to get that person's organs. They commit murder and they sell the parts of that human being. Obviously, these killers are drawing from a very large pool to be able to provide suitable matches.
In addition to this organ harvesting, men and women are routinely executed for the practice of Falun Gong.
A caller to Batchelor's show inquired about how Wang felt before she began her protest at the White House.
She wasn't afraid. She said she felt "really calm" before yelling at Hu.
It was incredibly courageous for this one woman to stand up to Hu, a man backed by an enormous army with nuclear weapons. She had the nerve to speak out against the crimes of the Chinese communist party in an extremely high profile setting.
As many as 100,000,000 people have joined the Falun Gong since 1999. Dr. Wang believes that it's these huge numbers that frighten the Chinese communist party.
They are so afraid that they've taken to executing the Falun Gong practitioners; and rather than just kill them, they are making a profit from their organs as an added bonus.
Batchelor pointed out that when Wang stood up to Hu and shouted for the world to hear, the words of this one woman were able to frighten the 60,000,000 men of the Chinese communist party.
He had her address the murderers, knowing that they'd be monitoring the Internet. She simply asked them to stop and to behave like human beings.
The details of live organ harvesting are so horrific that they are difficult to believe.
How could human beings do this to other human beings?
It's incomprehensible.
Referring to the atrocities in China as being akin to the horrors of the Holocaust, Batchelor summed up the persecution of the Falun Gong practitioners, "Remember never again? Yes, again."
Coincidentally, tomorrow, on April 25, Jews and others around the world will pause to observe Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day.
In the Yale Daily News, Daniel Hoffman writes:
Yom HaShoah is a sad day not only for those people who were persecuted, but also for the world that allowed such things to happen. Perhaps the best-known phrase connected with the Holocaust is "Never Again," and it is an important lesson. But perhaps in today's world, we need to be ever more vigilant to that message. It is imperative for all to remember what happened, and there is an important lesson that we must heed in order to ensure that such things never happen on this planet again, be it in Europe, the Sudan or anywhere else in the world.
Yom HaShoah reminds us, less than a week after Passover, that freedom is fleeting. Any freedom that we may feel can easily be crushed by the right opponent. We in the United States tend to get complacent with the freedoms that we have here since they have held up for so long. But we must remain forever vigilant of what might happen to those freedoms and protect them wherever they might be threatened. If we do not remember this important lesson from history, we risk losing those same freedoms ourselves. We must never lose sight of what makes this country so great even in trying to defend her.
Dr. Wang did her part to get the world's attention about the atrocities.
Now, what is the world going to do about it?

Lets be honest: This chick was right, but she's a nut herself.
I'd bet good money she bashes the U.S. more often than China.
I don't think so, Pero. I doubt she would be more critical of the U.S. than China.
We don't have concentration camps where we round up innocent people and hold them until we murder them to sell their organs.
She wasn't bashing the U.S. last week. She was pleading with Bush to pressure Hu to stop the killing.
There's no question that her protest was a success. In only a few minutes, she got the world to take notice. It was far more effective than Cindy Sheehan's August Crawford camp-out.
Live organ harvesting is barbaric. Wang Wenyi would be a nut if she didn't scream at Hu.
Like I said, she was right......
I'm going to research her a little...I bet I find she is an America basher as well.
As far as organ harvesting, of course it is brutal, but not unexpected from China......I made note of this on my post today.
They have more lives than they know what to do with in China, therefore life is cheap......When life is cheap anything can happen.

If she's good enough for Michelle Malkin she's good enough for me........As I eat crow!
You should trust me, Pero.
I get no respect. :)
I checked out the link that you provided. It doesn't exonerate the Chinese. In fact, it states that "Repression of Falun Gong, reports of organ harvesting still worry officials."
U.S. representatives have found no evidence to support allegations that a site in northeast China has been used as a concentration camp to jail Falun Gong practitioners and harvest their organs, according to the U.S. Department of State.
Officers and staff from the U.S. embassy in Beijing and the U.S. consulate in Shenyang have visited the area and the specific site on two separate occasions, the State Department said in a written response to a question taken at the April 14 daily press briefing.
"In these visits the officers were allowed to tour the entire facility and grounds and found no evidence that the site is being used for any function other than as a normal public hospital," the response said.
Independent of these specific allegations, the United States remains concerned over China’s repression of Falun Gong practitioners and by reports of organ harvesting, the State Department said. The United States has raised both issues in its discussions with the Chinese government and in its annual report on human rights practices around the world.
So, a tour of the facility didn't show anything unusual, as if that's a surprise.
Sorry, "sunday service in Xinzheng."
Your attempt to debunk Wang Wenyi's concerns and those of the U.S. government failed.
Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
How wonderful, while absence of evidence is not evidence of absence, it is evidence of presence?
That's the point.
