The Honorable President Clinton and Vice President Gore:
We, the undersigned, members of Free China Movement, are writing
to you to
respectfully plea for your attention that something terribly
wrong under your
Administration in relation to China has been going on and on.
We
respectfully appeal to you: Please release Mr. Zhang Hongbao,
the
internationally prominent Zhong Gong leader from jail cell on
the U.S. soil
now! Please stop any further disgraceful efforts to turning
Mr. Zhang
Hongbao back into the bloody hands of murderous Dictators in
Beijing!
Under your Administration's unconditional endorsement and moral
support to
Beijing, the world's worst totalitarian dictatorship has shown
to the world
NO restraint in its nationwide campaigns to ruthlessly persecute
religious
believers of all faiths in communist China, in the meantime,
threatening the
peace of the world. The Department of Justice, as the arm
of your
Administration, has unreasonably, and continuously jailed, since
this
January, Mr. Zhang Hongbao, the leader of Zhong Gong, a peaceful
spiritual
movement involving more than 30 million members in communist
China. The
Department of Justice has not only illegally and immorally instructed
the
prison authorities of Guam to continue to hold Mr. Zhang in Jail
after the
Immigration Court granted him humanitarian protection under the
Torture
Convention, it has gone extra miles to make further efforts to
accommodate
the totalitarian China's extradition demand.
I am sure you know that the Chinese Communist Party is still stubbornly
maintaining their "dictatorship of proletariat (Art.1 of the
PRC's
Constitution)" in China by persecuting anybody and any organization
that
holds different faith and belief (Art.24 of the PRC Constitution)
and by
suppressing people's harmless efforts for better physical and
spiritual
health and their efforts for themselves to reach more ethical,
higher moral
standards, let alone their efforts to pursue for democracy.
They even
consider Qigong, a Chinese cultural heritage whose purpose is
to promote well
being in people both in terms of health and ethics, "a factor
that endangers
the dictatorship of proletariat". Since last year, they
began large scale
nationwide persecution campaign against Qigong organizations.
Despite the
condemnation from the international community, the persecution
has since
become more severe and more and more Qigong meditators are being
persecuted
in forms of torture, public degrading, imprisonment, extra judicial
detention
and extra-judicial killings, confiscation and destruction of
their lawful
properties, illegal deprivation of their livelihood and state
organized
nasty, perjurious defamation campaign.
In the midst of this disastrous midnight of high tide of religious
persecution, those who are personally targeted for ruthless persecution
but
escaped from the life threatening risk and fortunately exiled
in the United
States wish that they can be protected by the US government on
this God
blessing land of Constitutional democracy.
Thus, the leader of Zhong Gong, Mr. Hongbao Zhang has chosen the
United
States as a safe haven in whose protection he can continue his
merciful work
for his suffered fellow citizens. The "proletarian"
dictators in Beijing
has taken an unprecedented harsh measures to interfere the internal
affairs
and judicial independence of the United States, the Embassy of
the PRC and
the spokesperson for the PRC Ministry of Foreign Affairs both
wanted your
administration to compromise the national dignity to serve the
PRC's
political agenda by demanding Mr. Zhang's extradition for groundless,
libelous and shameless charge of alleged "sex offense".
Using the same
disgraceful scheme, the PRC has executed the beloved Christian
leaders most
recently such as Rev. Wu Yangming, and Rev. Liu Jiaguo.
Both were murdered
in the silence of the free world. These dictators
in Zhong Nan Hai have
obviously been spoiled by your Administration, now they want
to extend their
murderous jurisdiction of proletarian dictatorship into this
great land of
freedom, even before the reach of their DF-41s. Unfortunately,
what the
Justice Department under your Administration is doing now by
continuing
imprisoning Mr. Zhang with the obvious efforts to turning him
back into the
bloody hands of these Beijing butchers is serving the Beijing's
political
agenda. To led your helping hands to Stalinist hardliner
Jiang Zemin to
persecute or murder the innocent is not decent. It hurts the
feeling of
freedom loving people of both nations.
The real reason behind so-called "felony" charge, Chinese Communist
Party
consider Mr. Zhang's different political opinions as "against
the
constitutional theoretical bases upon which the People's Republic
of China is
founded". They fear that Zhong Gong under Zhang may become
a big organized
opposition force, a peaceful alternative for China. The
higher moral
discipline of Zhong Gong, Fa Lun Gong members has also embarrassed
and
invalidated the morally corrupted Jiang Zemin Clique. The
ultimate reason
for the totalitarians under Die-hard Stalinist hardliner strongman
Jiang
Zemin to eliminate Zhong Gong and Fa Lun Gong is, according to
Jiang's own
admission, is to clean its backyard in order to better prepare
"an inevitable
war" "warfare exceeding maximum limit" ("chao xian zhan") against
the United
States and its democratic allies. Consequently, to help
the world's most
dangerous Stalinist Regime to achieve its lethal strategic goal
will not only
derogate this great nation's founding value, but directly hurt
its paramount
national security interests.
What should be uncovered is the plain truth that the undergoing
conflict
between the freedom and remaining communism of its worst type
is a strategic
conflict, all the other conflict does not have strategic significance.
It
will determines the life or death issue in near future.
Compromising U.S.
strategic national interests in 1940s to allow the communist
take-over in
China had directly led to great American casualty in Korea, ten
times greater
than that of Pearl Harbor. In comparison to the future
risk under the
misguided policy, Korean casualty may be too little. When
this
Administration declared "Three No's" to its democracy ally, endorsing
"Three
Rights (right time, right place, right leader)" to a diehard
Stalinist
dictator at the critical timing, we saw the guiding principle
of this great
nation has been completely misguided (such misleading can be
traced back to
November 1969 when secret Cohen Memo was produced and 1947 when
Stewart
Service gained the momentum).
Therefore, they tried desperately to keep Mr. Hongbao Zhang from
mere
surviving anywhere. Their plan is to take Mr. Hongbao Zhang
back to China
and execute him so as to get rid of their "horror in their deep
heart," like
they did in Rev. Wu Yangming, Rev. Liu Jiaguo's case. The
U.S. Department of
Justice under your Administration is obviously helping them implement
such a
"final solution".
The Hon. Judge of Hawaii immigration court correctly decided not
to deport
Mr. Hongbao Zhang despite the huge pressures from your Administration.
Although the Honorable Judge has revoked her decision to grant
Mr. Zhang
political asylum (made in this past June) under the same pressure,
as the
reflection of pressures from Beijing.
We will closely watch the progress and the outcome of this situation.
We
believe your great wisdom will direct you to make right decision.
Yours truly,
Free China Movement
