Watch WJ Sat AM re Wang Falun Gong press conference China
If you can - be sure to watch Erphing Zhang on C-Span Washington Journal.

I got a grounding in what was behind the protest - organs. I feel I have enough to go on now to follow what the U.S. will do to her.

Though Zhang is a spokesperson for Falun Gong, Wang's outburst was about human organs. Wang is a practising doctor and was protesting the way China is getting human organs.

If what she was protesting is true - there is something horrible going on over there.

The side fact is that she is also a Falun Gong follower. It seems the Chinese administration fears this (if true) passive faith and practice of meditation and exercises based on Buddhism.

FYI - Nearly all the callers were supportive of her. That degree of unanimity is unheard of and that segment should be watched for that reason alone.

I'm also going to observe what we don't learn from the corporate propagand networks of the U.S.

1. The term used was 'organ harvesting'.
Itis suspected that Falun Gong prisoners are being used for their organs.

2. I just watched this again and heard something I missed - it seems that
there is a suspicion that imprisoned Falun Gong followers may be the subjects for the organ harvesting.
