The Courage to Stand Up to the Chinese Communist Party
My friend Danielle Wang, a Falun Gong practitioner who lives in Austin, Texas, understands all too well the evil nature of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), even though China did not make Bush's "Axis of Evil" short list. Her grandfather was murdered by members of the Red Guard when her mom was 14 years old. Her father, Zhiwen Wang, was arrested in 1999 during the initial stages of the ongoing persecution of Falun Gong practitioners. Zhiwen is halfway through a 16 year prison sentence for simply being a Falun Gong practitioner in "the wrong place at the wrong time." There is growing concern that many such prisoners are being murdered in prison through the harvesting of their organs for domestic Chinese use as well as for export to the international organ transplant market.
Danielle, a civil engineer-in-training and US Citizen has been maligned and defamed on the Internet by the Chinese, simply because she wishes to secure her father's release and because she is willing to expose the evil of the CCP in the process. Her courage in standing up to the CCP is gaining the attention of communities of faith. A growing number of Christians are rallying around Danielle, holding her and her father up in prayer.
More about Danielle in a later post.
The story featured in this post is yet another example of how the CCP will not tolerate anyone who dares stand up to them and expose the truth about their continuous abuse of human rights and disregard for human life.

The Courage to Stand Up
Thoughts on Gao Zhisheng's open letter to the U.S. Congress
By Gary Feuerberg Epoch Times Washington, D.C. Staff | Oct 06, 2007 |
We all saw the man in 1989 stop the tank at Tiananmen Square. Now comes another image which in its own right is just as threatening to the communist rulers of China. On Sept. 12 while under house arrest, Beijing attorney Gao Zhisheng, wielding the power of the pen, writes a 16-page letter addressed to the United States Congress, which lays bare the moral depravity of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
