China's Most Interesting Face Building





Via Daqi.com in Chinese

Jiaohe Town, Henan Province is the home for China's most interesting face building, from the road it sure would look like a regular two story building from the side, it is obvious the building is only 1.5 meters wide.

In February, 2008 Wen Liujun, expanded his living quarters, however because of a road in the front and a hilly slope in the rear, he built a triangular building which was narrowest 1.5 meters to the west and 5 meters to the east.

Forced abortion kills mother and baby in China, why is Barack Obama culpable



Via The Epoch Times

China's One Child policy has resulted in the death of a young Mother and her 9 month old baby.

According to a Doctor at the hospital where the two died, the young woman was kidnapped by the "Birth Control Office" and taken to the hospital where she was forced to undergo an abortion procedure.

The young woman fought with staff to protect her unborn child however a half a dozen men, pushed her down on a bed and
injected her with a drug to induce labor.

After the young woman had a still birth, she developed a massive hemorrhage and soon thereafter died.

How much blood does President Obama have on his hands? How responsible is he for contributing to the death of this young woman and her 9 month old baby?

On the 26 January LifeSite News.com reported, that President Obama confirmed that the United Nations Population Fund, which helped to instigate, perpetuate and enforce China's One Child policy, would again receive taxpayers funds. President Bush had halted funding of the program in 2002

How much responsibility does Obama share in the Chinese child trafficking trade? In China, some families will sell their girl babies
in order to try for a boy since China's One Child Policy limits most families to have but one child.

My Dearest Dad:

Within a couple of months, my life completely changed. Everything is so unpredictable . I got engaged and then---married !

I wish you were here to share my life and happiness with me. I only wished that you could have been there to put my hand into his. At this milestone in my life, I miss you as ever or more, I don't want you to miss the important moments of your only daughters life. :(

During last call talking to family, they said that you have known I got married. You were really happy for me. I instantly couldn't hold my tears anymore. I felt heart wrenching sore. Your unselfish good wishes for me, mean so so so much and I can't even share this precious moment with you but I will, one day, recall all the happy memories with you together.

My husband is an extremely nice guy, who has always been supportive of you. Together, we try to tell people your story and Fulan Gong. He is very eager to meet you in the future. He thinks you are the best Dad and a man of honor. As for me, I feel lucky to have you both in my life.

How is everything with you? With an age almost approaching 60 years old, I want you to breathe in the free air. To be able to believe in "Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance." To not be forced to do labor everyday. Most of all, I want your name to be cleared and all the Dafa Practitioners innocence proved.

Love with all my heart,
Your Daughter, Dandan

Each one of the survivors and unfortunate victims, have really important stories to remember, which keeps the memories of the Sichuan quake victims forever alive.

Trying to save his neck? Senior Iranian Cleric: "Regime is Illegitimate!"


Iranian revolution in the works? Hot Air has video here Iranian protests gaining steam despite crackdown.

Seeing the writing on the wall, Iranian Cleric Ayatollah Hossein Ali Montazeri attempting to save his neck from being stretched says on his website, that the official results of the elections were so ludicrous that no one could believe them. The Iranian Cleric attacked the "merry men" of Grand Islamic Wizard Ayatollah Khamenei saying, they have proved themselves illegitimate, through their clumsy attempt to grab power.

Mir Hossein Mousavi, the main challenger of Holocaust Denier Ahmadinejad, has become a rallying figure behind the protests but frankly there isn't a dimes worth of difference between him and the other Islamic Fascists, hand picked to run for the office of President in Iran.

On the 12 June, I wrote here that Mousavi is Just another anti-Israel, anti-Semite.

Iran: Opportunity Is Knocking, Will Obama Administration Promote Democracy?





A great opportunity presents itself to the Obama Administration, to promote Democracy, Peace, Respect for Human Right & Freedom in Iran.

Will the Obama Administration encourage Democracy or sit idly back on the side-lines and do nothing?

It appears that B. Hussein Obama is going to choose the disastrous policy of the latter saying "...it would not interfere with the struggle
for power" between the Iranian regime under the leadership of the Grand Islamic Wizard Ayatollah Khamenei and Ahmadinejad but remains willing to open up dialogue with the Islamic Fascists.

How really unfortunate for sure. The events that are now occurring, provide the Obama Administration with an opportunity that hardly seemed possible just a couple of weeks ago.

During the Clinton Administration, they attempted to covertly
increase economic pressure on Iran but didn't go nearly far enough.

Kenneth Timmerman in 1996 published a paper entitled Support Democracy & Change In Iran arguing that the USA must encourage Democracy in Iran, help to unify the opposition, increase focus on Iran's dismal human rights record and coordinate with key USA democratic allies.

During the Bush Administration, they attempted to undermine and destablize the Islamic Fascist Iranian regime by funding increased covert operations and promoting clandestine operations in Iran from southern Iraq.

The Obama Administration has been provided most favorable circumstances to demonstrate leadership, promote freedom and independence in Iran and fund pro-democracy demonstrators.

Providing money to Iranian Revolutionaries, training and intelligence, for the first time since 1979 has tremendous opportunity to realize
real change, which would end funding of Islamic terrorism around
the globe, saving lives of Americans and our Allies, assuring respect for human rights, peace, freedom and Democracy in Iran.
