After July 20, 1999, many practitioner exercised their Constitutional right to appeal -- they went to Tiananmen Square, their local government agencies, etc, all just to let everyone know what the truth really was. Words in the cartoon: Falun Dafa is good.
Jiang threw the kind Falun Gong practitioners into jails and labor camps, and fed lies to foreign journalists. But in a suburb of Beijing on October 26, 1999, Falun Gong practitioners secretly held their first press conference in China in front of foreign journalists, letting the world know the truth about Falun Gong. Words on the banner: Falun Dafa News Press Conference
Over the following weeks, months, and years, Falun Gong practitioners faced countless tribulations with peacefulness and compassion. They tirelessly clarified the truth to the world through their words and actions. Practitioner being tried in court: "Dafa practitioners are innocent, and Dafa is the righteous Fa."
People in the audience: "I had a co-worker that went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong. He got beaten so badly by the police, now I think he was sent to a labor camp!" "It's such a shame to do this to such good people!"
Jiang was petrified. Even though he'd fooled the public for now, he wasn't anywhere close to destroying Falun Gong like he thought he could. He was deathly afraid of his lies being exposed and what would happen to his precious power. Realizing that he'd painted himself into a corner, Jiang lost what little rationality he had left and went into a frenzy. Jiang: "I'll fight to the bitter end!"
He mobilized everything imaginable: the media, the army, the police, spies, and poured enormous amounts of resources in persecuting Falun Gong. The result was an unprecedented evil wave of terror that swept up everyone in its path. "OK, everyone charge! Radio, TV, newspapers, military police, public security bureaus, special agents, everyone!"
