(Clearwisdom.net) The U.S. Supreme Court will soon decide if it will review the lawsuit against former Chinese leader Jiang Zemin for genocide and torture. In order to bring Jiang to justice and to support the global lawsuits against Jiang, Falun Gong practitioners from the Kinki Region of Japan organized a one-day event in Osaka on April 10 2005. The event included public speeches and a petition drive in the most crowded area of Osaka. The event received support from other organizations.

In the speeches, the practitioners pointed out that the rampant persecution has already been responsible for 1622 practitioners being tortured to death in custody. The real number of deaths is believed to be much higher than this. In order to end the inhuman persecution as soon as possible, it is necessary to establish Jiang's responsibility according to the law and bring him to justice.
Other speakers said that Falun Gong focused on upholding traditional values, which formed a stark contrast with the Chinese Communist Party's disdain and destruction of traditional Chinese culture. Bringing Jiang to Justice is the will of all people who love peace.

Public Speech Site
Many people stopped to view the display boards and listen to the speeches about the lawsuit. Some asked for more reading materials and many signed their names on the yellow cloth to support the lawsuit to bring Jiang to justice. Many passersby said that they already knew about what was happening in China and expressed their dislike for the CCP. One elderly lady asked for a stack of flyers and said she would help distribute them to her friends and relatives. Some people said that the CCP's propaganda had caused them to misunderstand Falun Gong, and by reading the informational materials and listening to the speeches, they learned the truth. Some people thanked the practitioners for bringing them the truth.
