Some Truths Are Intolerable

whatistough
A global network of spies, deception and political pressure must be overcome to prevent the further suffering of innocence. Some Truths Are Intolerable is a short film about the persecution of Falun Dafa (a peaceful spiritual practice from China), at the hands of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). From 1992-1999 Falun Dafa was freely followed throughout China, until the government decided that there were too many people studying the energy exercises and meditation. The CCP banned the practice and immediately declared up to 100million innocent people as being criminals. Since then, thousands have been tortured to death for their beliefs, hundreds of thousands are in slave labour camps, and millions have had their lives ruined by their own government. It is the intention of What Is Tough (a project dedicated to releasing a feature film about this issue) to bring to the public's attention this global disaster, before the Olympic Games are held in Beijing, in August of 2008. The atrocities covered in the film continue to this day.
Please visit www.whatistough.com for more information on the project and please sign-up to Current TV to vote for this film, so that more people become aware of the truth about Falun Dafa, because some truths are intolerable!
Thank you.

    • James Poulter and Oli Sumerling are proud to show this short film "Some Truths Are Intolerable" and hopefully the full feature "Breaking The Silence", at their bicycle drive-in-movie screening on July 20th, the 10th anniversary of the persecution of Falun Gong. Cheers.

    • Have just watched this again with the sound this time.
      Excellent.
      It is inspiring to know that people have the time, energy and resources to produce such a well balanced and informative short film exposing the persecution of Falun Gong in China.
      Thank you.

    • What an excellent documentary. I have been watching the short films made about the persecution against Falun Gong since 2000, and this one is very well done. I hope more people can see it.

    • What a sad but true movie that needs to shown to the people of this world. It truly shows that China's Communist Government has done harm to the peaceful Falun Gong Practitioners. This persecution has lasted way to long. It's about time more movies be shown to spread the truth and hopefully more people will, as Gandhi has said, "be the change you want to see in the world" and really peace for peace not war&selfishness.

    • This was a fantastically made film and very well produced which helped make the message not just propaganda but the truth it is. Hopefully people will remember this and act when they need to.

    • This is an excellent film, that portrays something so aweful, in a balanced way. There can be no getting away from this, it is simply disgusting to persecute people for the values of Truth, Benevolence and Forebearance.
      It is inhuman and must be stopped now!

    • Fantastic documentary highlighting what is a truly terrifying abuse of human rights being committed against such a peaceful group of people.

      I only hope that this film helps more people to see what is happening right now in China and inspires them to speak out against it.

    • A very touching yet very powerful film! Well done guys! Let's hope more and more people can see it, especially those in mainland China, who are still under strict information control.

      Being a Chinese myself, I understand it, just as said in the film, though it seems like the population's living or the human rights condition is improving, it is all lies by the government, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). I admit that people are having more buying power now, compared with say 10 or 20 years ago. However, we shall not forget that the CCP had been in control of China for nearly 60 years, for those times without CCP, our Chinese people's lives were far more better than now! The CCP is indeed something from the west, it's not something belongs to our 5000 years of traditional semi-divine culture!!!

      I sincerely hope those people in my motherland can realise what the CCP has done to them and to our once-wonderful country. Let's try our best to get rid of this actual "Foreign Devil" --- the CCP, and gain back our divine land!

      Best luck everyone!!!

    • We are all to ready to grab the cheap products offered to us from China without noticing the tortured bodies over which we scramble to be first on the queue. This is a worthy reminder that cost often means more than currency.

    • What is happening in China is the worst human persecution ever. People like those guys who made this film should be listened by those who can really do something about it instead of always thinking about economic advantages. Who should care about human rights if not human beings? Falun Gong practitioners are persecuted because they believe in Truthfulness, Compassion, Tollerance...what is going on in this world?Let's stop such criminal abuses!

    • Well this documentary is amazing, I want to cry when I watch it,

      Falun Dafa is good, carry this thought with you always.

      The Chinese Communist Party is evil , but evil will NEVER outway the GOOD. Righteous is the only way... and every human being has this inside them.

      Thank you for making this.

    • Great film about Falun Gong and the persecution of practitioners in China. How much longer can these atrocities continue while world leaders continue to talk about increasing trade with China. This is what we need more of in the world, Truth Compassion and Tolerance.

    • More and more are our governments providing the means to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to carry on with its suppresive regime. I personally try to boycott Chinese goods. With governments world wide knowing of the cruel ways of CCP, it almost appears they are knowingly supporting them. They are supposed to represent the people and pave the way to a better future. Our leaders often say they seek trade to pave way to a better future. Yet trading with such corrupt power crazed political figures, what sort of a future are we forging. Seeking trade is like saying carry on with torturing, illegally imprisoning, injustice, corruption, lies and murder. The CCP will see this as an invitation to carry on.
      The people of China are suffering and our politicians are wrongfully supporting this through their actions. All for the sake of money and our so called future.

      Yet I have faith that good shall prevail and the dark times will forever be far removed.

    • The truth is obviously, But there is not many upper class society would dare to stand out and speak for the truth, they just waite and see. They always try to balance between benefit and justice, however evey time the truth itself always fade out from people's memory...

    • I hope that more chinese people can watch this, it will be significant effect to understand the reasons why Chinese government has been illegally persecuting Falun Gong for such long time--over 7 years , and why the persecution didn't poison only Falun gong's members, but also whole nation as well.

    • The Chinese Communist party have murdered millions of innocent people and have controlled by fear, deceiving people using media control. The extent of the atrocities are now being highlighted by good people of the world who know in their hearts this is evil. People in power have investments in the Chinese economy and, against their consciences, turn a blind eye to this.
      This item helps highlight the truth to people who need to know of this gross genocide.
