(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Gong practitioners in Israel held activities to clarify the truth about Falun Gong during a Film Festival on Oct. 18, 2005. Their first stop was Akko, the most ancient port city in the world. The earliest historical records of this city date back to 1500 B.C.

People in Akko enjoy listening to the true story of Falun Gong.
Practitioners demonstrated the Falun Gong exercises, distributed flyers and displayed picture boards. Many people were fascinated and imitated the exercise movements. They listened carefully about facts of the persecution. Many signed their names to condemn the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in China.
Practitioners headed for Haifa after spending a few days in Akko. The sponsor of our activities arranged a booth for us in a park where a film festival was being held. We set up display boards, some practitioners demonstrated the exercises, and some taught children how to fold paper lotuses.
When we gave two young men our flyers and told them the principles of Falun Dafa, and that the world needs "Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance," they said, "It is very important that the world needs 'Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance'!" They were shocked to hear about the persecution of Falun Gong in China. One of them came back to ask us where he could learn Falun Gong and if there were any free introductory lessons. When we told him all Falun Gong teaching was free, he was surprised and looked very grateful.
Many people happily took our flyers and listened to our truth-clarification. Things are changing. People are awakening. Falun Dafa is spreading wider and wider in the world.
