(Minghui.org) The Canadian edition of The Huffington Post published an article “China's Grim Human Harvests” writen by columnist Peter Worthington on August 3, 2012. The article discusses China's one-child policy, forced abortions and organ harvesting. The author cites “Report into Allegations of Organ Harvesting of Falun Gong Practitioners in China” by David Kilgour and David Matas, which confirmed that Falun Gong practitioners in China have been subject to the brutal practice of organ harvesting.
The article said, “Falun Gong is a discipline that combines meditation, gentle exercising, truthfulness, compassion and tolerance to gain spiritual enlightenment. Until it was repressed, Falun Gong was becoming more popular in China than the Communist Party—something intolerable for Beijing.”
“The Chinese [Chinese Communist Party agents] execute more people than any other country in the world, with some 55 crimes designated for the death penalty. What is well-established is that some prisoners on death row are kept around until there's a demand for a heart, lung, liver, cornea or whatever, and then the execution takes place so the customer get a fresh body part.
“Macabre enough with criminals, but there are also reports of Falun Gong dissidents being imprisoned until their body parts can be sold.
“Former cabinet minister [former Canadian Secretary of State for Asia Pacific] David Kilgour and Winnipeg human rights lawyer David Matas have relentlessly investigated China's organ 'harvesting' program. Their report concludes, 'There has been, and continues today to be, large-scale organ seizures from unwilling Falun Gong practitioners.' This is denied by Beijing, despite first-hand evidence to the contrary.”
