Background
Falun Gong, also known as Falun Dafa (about), is a Buddhist practice of meditation and exercises, with teachings that emphasize living by three principles: truthfulness, compassion, and tolerance. Originating in China, Falun Gong is now practiced in over 70 countries. With Chinese government estimates of 100 million practicing Falun Gong in China, in July 1999 the Chinese Communist Party-state launched a nationwide, violent campaign to “eradicate” the practice. The Falun Dafa Information Center has verified details of 2,747 deaths and over 44,000 cases of torture (reports / sources). Millions have been detained or sent to forced labor camps.
