Human Rights Torch Relay in Milwaukee and Madison Cities of Wisconsin

The Human Rights Torch was ignited in Greece last August and has been relayed to twenty-six countries and eighty cities. The Coalition to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong (CIPFG), consisting of more than three hundred political leaders, lawyers, doctors, religious leaders, and human rights advocates, started the HRTR to stop the CCP’s persecution of Falun Gong, especially the CCP’s atrocity of organ removal from living Falun Gong practitioners for profit. The CCP’s live organ removal from Falun Gong practitioners showed its nature of bloody cruelty and it was hateful for the International Olympic Committee to let such an inhuman regime host the Olympics. It seems like the Beijing Olympics is on the other side of the 1936 Olympics in Germany. Crimes against humanity and the Olympics cannot coexist in China. Through the global Human Rights Torch Relay exposing the CCP’s atrocities and crimes against humanity, the international community is called on to not allow the Olympics become the “bloody Olympics.”

Now, Let’s listen to the following speeches made at Human Rights Torch Relay in Milwaukee and Madison Wisconsin.

The attendees put on yellow ribbons voluntarily to support the CIPFG-initiated Human Rights Torch Entry into China and all those Chinese people who were persecuted by the CCP or sought freedom, justice and human rights.

The attendees signed the petition for the “Millions of Signatures Global Campaign” initiated by the CIPFG to express their support of the call for an end of the persecution of Falun Gong before the 2008 Olympics.

The attendees also signed a joint declaration to strongly condemn the CCP tyranny’s escalation of persecution upon the coming of the Olympics. The declaration demands that the CCP release all prisoners of conscience, including Falun Gong practitioners, and stop live organ removal from practitioners. The joint declaration will be sent to the International Olympic Committee, the US State Department and the Chinese government.
