"This cruel persecution is completely based on lies. In this persecution of innocent people, the lies have served as the worst, formless killer. The lies have incited this society's hatred and exclusion of the Falun Gong community. The lies have deceived the world's people into following the CCP's persecution of Falun Gong.
