Congratulations to Zenon Dolnyckyj for his courage in going to Tiananmen Square to appeal for the Falun Gong (Chinese police beat me, says Canadian, Nov. 22). This spiritual movement is welcomed in more than 50 countries and only China tortures and murders its own citizen practitioners. This is not just a China issue.
Killing innocent, kind people who live by Truth, Compassion and Tolerance is not only utterly devoid of conscience, it is a persecution against the basic right of human beings to exist and against the right to believe.
As Martin Luther King said: "Any place without justice is a threat to all places with justice.... He who is silent in the face of evil is as guilty as the one perpetrating the evil."
Bravo, Zenon. This would be a far more benevolent world if more people cared as deeply as you.
