Executive Director of the World Human Rights Organization (WHRO) Timothy Cooper, Senior Assistant to U.S. Congress and founder of the Free China Movement Joel Segal came to the conference.

  Senior Assistant to U.S. Congress Joel Segal strongly condemned the Chinese Communist regime's crimes |
Senior Assistant to US Congress Joel Segal is a Jewish-American, and some of his family members were killed in Nazi concentration camps in World War II. In the press conference, he strongly protested against and condemned the Chinese Communist regime's cruel persecution of peaceful citizens.
Mr. Segal indicated that the CCP is persecuting people who only perform meditation. If the American government arrested people who did Yoga or other forms of meditation, jailed them, murdered them, and sold their organs, how would the United Nations and other countries respond? He called upon U.S. Congress to investigate and take prompt action.
WHRO Executive Director Mr. Timothy Cooper said that he had visited Poland about a year ago, where some six million Jews were massacred in World War II. He had hoped that the world would never see genocide and atrocities like that again, and he was very sad to see the news of what has happened in China.
  WHRO Executive Director Mr. Timothy Cooper said that we must try our best to stop the genocide that is happening in China |
Mr. Cooper called on the U.S. government to use its best satellite technology to try to take pictures of the concentration camps in China and publicize them. He called on U.S. Congress to hold a hearing on this case as soon as possible, and the United Nations Commission on Human Rights to start an investigation.
Mr. Cooper said that once the facts are verified and proven that there is no worse genocide going on in the world today, he believes that U.S. Congress will take all necessary measures to stop any more such crimes from happening in China. He also stated that the whole world should gather all of its moral and economic power to say "No" to the Chinese Communist regime.
Mr. Segal called on the United Nations, the U.S. Government, the Red Cross, and Doctors Without Borders to start an official investigation into the concentration camps and expose the truth.
  Mr. He, a DC resident, delivers a speech |
Mr. He, a DC resident, indicated that the crimes committed by the concentration camp, killing practitioners and harvesting their organs for profit, are appalling and truly terrible. He called for an independent investigation to find out the culprits, as the CCP will surely not police themselves when it comes to human rights.
  Professor Nie Sen from the Catholic University of America delivers speech |
Professor Nie Sen from the Catholic University of America indicated that before the Nazi regime fell, most Western statesmen and politicians didn't know the full extent of the persecution against Jews. Today, Falun Gong practitioners are safeguarding their belief in "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance" and other basic human rights with their lives.
Mr. He stated that when these intolerable crimes happen more and more often, the weight upon the perpetrators will become heavier and heavier. After the first one steps forward, it will become easier for more to do so. So now is the perfect time to dig further to find out the truth.
Mr. Cooper said that the whole world should stand up to say "No", and we have to try our best to stop the genocide that's happening in China. He said that he's proud to stand with the practitioners, and that we will be able to stop it together.
Mr. Joel Segal said that when his family members were killed in World War II, the world kept silent. But today, he has to stand up to condemn the atrocities and stop the brutal torture and killing.
