Dear President Obama:
I was a student leader during the Tiananmen pro-democratic movement in
1989 and I had experienced Chinese prison life for 6 years. Now I am
working as a financial analyst in New York.
During this time when you are about to host Mr. Hu Jintao, the
President of China, at the White House in Washington D.C., as well as
in your own house in Chicago, I would like to let you know that Mr. Hu
Jintao, as the dictator of the Communist government, is fully
responsible for kidnapping or jailing the following well known human
rights activists.
Gao Zhisheng, an Attorney for human rights, was kidnapped twice in
2007 and 2009 by the Chinese Security agencies. And eight months ago
he disappeared a third time. During the first two kidnappings, he
received the worst, cruelest torture. Recently, the Associated Press
released an exclusive interview with Gao Zhisheng last April with
details about the "degree of cruelty" that Mr. Gao Zhisheng received
from the kidnapper. Here is the link to the AP report:

Mr. Liu Xiaobo, the Nobel Peace Prize Winner of 2010, was punished
because of his speech. Although it was reported that he received
"humane and tender" treatment in prison, I don't buy it based on my
own experiences in the Chinese
Prison. I would rather say that his praising words were based on
Chinese propaganda and not based on facts.
Mr. Zhang Jianhong, a writer and poet, died through torture at his 52
years old right on the New Year's Eve of 2011.
Mr. Yang Tianshui was arrested and sentenced to 12 years of prison,
just because he wrote articles on websites. He is now seriously ill
with pulmonary tuberculosis, meningitis, tuberculosis, intestinal
inflammation, diabetes, nephritis, hypertension, and other diseases.
Mr. Chen Guangcheng, a human rights activist, remains under house
- Show quoted text -
arrest after finishing a 4 year prison term, even though he is
disabled and blind. Now, even though living in his own home, he has no
way to get medicine and sufficient health care.
Mr. Wang Bingzhang, Mr. Peng Ming, and Mr. Zhou Yongjun were all
American residents and Chinese democracy movement activists. They were
first lured to Southeast Asia. And then they were kidnapped by the
Chinese military agencies. Now they are serving their life sentences
in Chinese prison. The two Chinese sisters, who played important roles
during these kidnapping cases, were sent back to the United States and
are ready to lure other Chinese activists.
This list could be endless if I list them all. Such as, Mr. Guo
Feixiong, Mr. Guo Quan, Mr. Hada, Mr. Tan Zuoren, Mr. or Ms. ......,
They are all experiencing persecution in different Chinese prisons.
And I believe that they are treated with inhumanity and harsh cruelty.
Lastly, I would let you know that Mr. Hu Jintao is responsible for
some terrorism activities on the land of the United States. As the
Chief Commander of the Chinese Military Force, Mr. Hu Jintao has sent
many of his well trained military officers into the United States to
start the so called "unrestricted war". I myself have experienced
endless harassment from some of his military agencies, even though I
escaped to the United States after I served 6 years in Chinese prison.
I can also give a long list who experienced the same harrassment from
the Chinese Military agencies.
Since 2005, the Chinese Military Forces also set up military training
camps in most of the Chinese Universities. Such camps are very similar
to the al Qaeda's semi-military camps. Students who are trained in
such camps will join the People's Liberation Army and most of them
would be sent to the United States as sleeping cells. These sleeping
cells are always ready to start the "unrestricted war" against the
United States.
"To be or not to be?" That quetion has bothered Hamlet forever.
"To be in the jail or to be in the Hell!" That has never been a
question to the Chinese police when they deal with Chinese Human
Rights activists.
Your words still inspire us: "To those who cling to power through
corruption and deceit and the silencing of dissent, know that you are
on the wrong side of history, but that we will extend a hand if you
are willing to unclench your fist."
I hope that you can unclench Mr. Hu Jintao's fist when you have the
chance to shake hands with him.
I urge you to urge your guest, Mr. Hu Jintao to release all the
innocent Chinese who are jailed due to their religion, thought,
speech, or race.
I urge you to urge Mr. Hu Jintao to withdraw all of his military
terrorism cells he has ever built in the United States.
I urge you to urge Mr. Hu Jintao to stop his military camps in all of
the non-military schools in China.
I urge you to urge Mr. Hu Jintao to stop his "unrestricted war"
against the United States, so that we would have a peaceful life and
