The demise of the Chinese Communist Party is only a matter of time.<br /> <br /> On What the Communist Party Is<br /> <br /> More than a decade after the fall of the former Soviet Union and Eastern European communist regimes, the international communist movement has been spurned worldwide. The demise of the Chinese Communist Party is only a matter of time.<br /> <br /> On the Beginnings of the Chinese<br /> <br /> Communist Party<br /> Why did the Communist Party emerge, grow and eventually seize power in contemporary China? Did the Chinese people choose the Communist Party? Or, did the Communist Party gang up and force Chinese people to accept it? The CCP has set itself above all, conquering all in its path, thereby bringing endless catastrophe to China.<br /> <br /> <br /> On the Tyranny of the Chinese<br /> Communist Party<br /> <br /> Today the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)¡¯s violence and abuses are even more severe than those of the tyrannical Qin Dynasty. The CCPs philosophy is one of struggle,and the CCPs rule has been built upon a series of class struggles,path struggles,and ideological struggles,both in China and toward other nations.<br /> <br /> On How the Communist Party Is an Anti-Universe Force<br /> <br /> In the last hundred years, the sudden invasion by the communist specter has created a force against nature and humanity, causing limitless agony and tragedy. It has also pushed civilization to the brink of destruction. It has become an extremely malevolent force against the universe.<br /> <br /> On the Collusion of Jiang Zemin with the CCP to Persecute Falun Gong<br /> <br /> Why is Falun Gong, which upholds the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance and has been promulgated in over 60 countries worldwide, being persecuted only in China, not anywhere else in the world? In this persecution, what is the relationship between Jiang Zemin and the CCP?<br /> <br /> On How the Chinese Communist Party Destroyed Traditional Culture<br /> <br /> The CCP has devoted the nations resources to destroying Chinas rich traditional culture. The CCPs destruction of Chinese culture has been planned, well organized, and systematic, made possible by the states use of violence. Since its establishment, the CCP has never stopped revolutionizing Chinese culture in the attempt to completely destroy its spirit.<br /> <br /> On the Chinese Communist Party¡¯s History of Killing<br /> <br /> The 55-year history of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is written with blood and lies. The stories behind this bloody history are not only brutally inhumane but also rarely known. Under the rule of the CCP, 60 to 80 million innocent Chinese people have been killed, leaving their broken families behind.<br /> <br /> On How the Chinese Communist Party Is an Evil Cult<br /> <br /> The Communist Party is essentially an evil cult that harms mankind. Although the Communist Party has never called itself a religion, it matches every single trait of a religion. At the beginning of its establishment, it regarded Marxism as the absolute truth in the world. It exhorted people to engage in a life-long struggle for the goal of building a ¡°communist heaven on earth.¡±<br /> <br /> On the Unscrupulous Nature of the Chinese Communist Party<br /> <br /> What is most terrifying is that the CCP is going all out to try to destroy the moral foundation of the entire nation, attempting to turn every Chinese national to various degrees into a scoundrel in order to create an environment favorable for the CCP to advance with time. It is especially important for us to understand clearly why the CCP acts like scoundrels and to discern its criminal nature.

Breathtaking...<br /> A more concise and affecting summation<br /> of the Tibetan crisis would be hard to imagine" David Kehr, New York Times<br /> <br /> The film opens with the memories of a journey to Tibet by two young American adventurers, who suddenly find themselves in the middle of Tibetan demonstrations against Chinese rule. Their riveting story is supported by interviews with Tibetan monks and nuns who participated in the demonstrations, accompanied by a powerful assemblage of images documenting the massacre and crackdown by Chinese forces. The heroic story of Jampa Tenzin, a monk who rescued prisoners from a burning police station, his subsequent capture, torture and death, leads to a prayer by the Dalai Lama, and sets the tone for the epic tale about to unfold: a story of struggle, courage, and compassion.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> After the title, the audience is transported to the beginning of the story, the legendary "rooftop of the world" -- via spectacular footage of Tibet’s awe-inspiring landscape and timeless glimpses of Tibet’s unique culture. A brief introduction to Tibetan history dispels popular misconceptions that Tibet is a tiny mountain kingdom and that Tibet has always been a land of peace and tranquillity. Tibetan elders recollect the homeland of their youth. The foundations of Tibetan Buddhism are presented, lavishly illustrated with a wealth of stunning cinematography. These contemporary images support the point made by Buddhist scholar Stephen Batchelor that Tibetan traditions still endure in more remote areas of its homeland today, demonstrating that Tibetan culture is not yet lost.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Experts and witnesses discuss the history of Sino-Tibetan relations, and introduce the story of the current Dalai Lama. An archival view of the Dalai Lama’s former residence, the Potala, suddenly cuts to a modern view, and a barrage of arresting images from today’s Tibet: crowds of Chinese immigrants, destruction of historic Tibetan neighborhoods, soldiers, prostitutes. Interviews express the powerlessness Tibetans feel in the face of Chinese colonization masked as modernization and development. A Chinese government spokesman counters with Beijing’s official positions on Tibet, which leads to an overview of the current religious crackdown, all reinforced with rare visuals and interview testimony.
