Falun
Gong cult becomes a "reactionary political force'' (10/10/2001)
The Falun Gong cult, which has been banned by the Chinese governmnent,
has eroded into a "reactionary political force" that should
be destroyed, a commentary of the People's Daily said Tuesday.
Some well-organized members of the Falun Gong cult sneezed into
the Tian'anmen Square on October 1 where tens of thousands of people
were celebrating the 51th anniversary of the People's Republic,
and seriously jeopodized the harmonious joyful atmosphere there.
Later, they were drived out of the the square by police.
"They have completely transformed themselves into a virtual
reactionary political force," the commentary said. "Its
aim is to overturn the People's Republic of China and to subvert
the socialist system.''
"They cause trouble and they fail. They continue to cause
trouble and they will continue to fail right until their destruction.
They cannot escape the destiny of their inevitable fall."
Fulun Gong cult has deluded its members and causing 1,500 deaths
and 600 cases of mental illness in China.
"If we do not see the political nature of Falun Gong and do
not resolutely and properly set about resolving it, this would be
a historical error," the commentary said.
Reactionary at it is, however, the commentary pointed out that
the "anti-China forces" in the United States and the West
were supporting and making use of the cult to try to break up China.
"To tell the truth, they don't want to see a strong China
or a China with a stable environment for economic development,"
it said.
