As the
Olympic Torch has made its way around the world to showcase the “new” China,
there are thousands of dead Chinese “Olympians” who won’t make it to the Beijing
games.
The
sliced, diced, skinned and dissected bodies of executed Chinese prisoners, Falun
Gong followers and political dissidents are making their way across the world.
These proud Chinese are playing football, baseball, shot putt, and track -- all
dead and all making millions for the body hustlers of Beijing.
If the
dead could walk again, the Chinese corpses that are being exhibited all over the
world to sold-out crowds would hold out their skin-stripped palms and ask for
their cut of the action. Hundreds of million of dollars have been taken in by
these companies with Discovery Channel sounding names: Body Worlds,
Bodies: The Exhibition, and Our Body: The Universe Within. The only ones
getting skinned alive in this deal are the dead Chinese.
ABC’s
20/20 did a report questioning where the bodies came from. Dr. Gunther von
Hagens, the German doctor who invented the process to plasticize and display the
bodies, has now stopped using Chinese bodies admitting that “some” are executed
Chinese prisoners. N.Y. Attorney General Andrew Cuomo has opened a probe.
Congressman Chris Smith (R-N.J.) is calling for a Congressional investigation
into the Chinese black market in bodies. In California, legislation passed the
State Assembly requiring exhibit companies to prove the bodies weren’t robbed
from graves or sold from prisons to fill the ghoulish demand.
Where is
the moral outrage over public money being spent to bring these death shows to
museums across the country? Unless the show promoters want to put their bodies
where their greedy, blood-sucking mouths are, it is time to shut down all of
these Holocaust worthy shows.
The
exhibition companies and their willing lackey museums are only in it for the
money. The dead Chinese, who made less than a hundred bucks a month while
alive, are being displayed like stuffed taxidermist trophies, twisted and
contorted doing Western things for our amusement. These nameless corpses are
generating hundreds of millions of dollars for the death merchants, only feeding
the sick amusement that keeps the shows running.
China’s
newest growth industry already has over ten factories churning out processed
dead Chinese around the clock like the dead were nothing more than beef jerky.
Chinese folks are worth much more dead than alive to the Asian body traffickers
and the foreign owners and public companies of these modern circus sideshows.
But hey,
there’s over a billion of them so what’s a few missing bodies if there’s a way
to make a quick buck?
These exhibits
are ones that the Nazi angel of death himself, Dr. Josef Mengele, would have
loved. Imagine his face at seeing a flayed Chinese man holding his skin on a
coat hanger, or a Chinese woman with her breasts cut in half or others in XXX
sex acts. This is a peep show of the unwilling dead who have come to titillate
your morbid curiosity by way of political prisons, mental institutions and for
practicing Falun Gong.
The Universe
Within Touring Company of Baltimore, Md., says that they display only
legally obtained bodies in a “dignified environment.” The company’s web page
states that, “anatomical specimens…have been provided for the exhibit consistent
with the laws of China.”
Laws of China?
China is a nation where laws are winked at and bribes the currency of choice.
Just ask Tibet how good a Chinese government promise is worth.
The
exhibits around America are full of corpses supposedly donated by Chinese
medical schools. The Baltimore death merchant corporation told the Richmond
Times-Dispatch that, “the preserved bodies are of Chinese people who
willingly donated their bodies for the exhibit” and that no money changed hands.
Of course. All
Chinese are just dying to meet you.
The New York
Times reported, “The police in the city of Dandong…discovered about 10
corpses in a farmer’s yard.” The dead Chinese were to be sold to foreign corpse
show promoters. No official papers? No problem. Take the bodies and run.
These
museums and their death exhibitors hide behind their multi-page Chinese
contracts, which they can’t read, relying on rubber stamped certification from
some unreachable person in China, to make their consciences feel good.
Why? Because
hundreds of millions of dollars are at stake for the gaggle of copy-cat body
show promoters huckstering their Chinese take out around the world. Museums are
charging $25 dollars for adults, $20 for kids and those two and younger are
free. Free, just like the death merchants want you to believe that all the
exhibited bodies were willing dragged into the flaying factories so Westerners
could marvel at their innards.
So for those who
go to one of these shows, getting off on your morbid curiosities, think about
what’s going on right now in ghastly factories all over China. Workers paid $50
a week are dissecting bodies, removing the skin and fat, so that they can be
posed for your enjoyment as a dead man playing guitar or another having sex with
dead woman.
We vilified Nazi
experiments in countless movies, yet we glorify a fast growing industry that
profits from the misery of the Chinese poor. Remember that old Charlton Heston
film, Planet of the Apes, when he stumbled into the museum and saw all
the stuffed humans poised in happy dioramas? Well, these dead Chinese body
shows are the real thing.
If it’s
okay to defile and exhibit dead Chinese, would you object to a show featuring
dead illegals found along our border, exhibited pushing lawnmowers or working in
a hotel kitchen? Or a show about Dafur featuring scrawny, dead black children
to help you better understand their plight? Better yet, how about an Iranian
show featuring dead American “crusader soldiers”? Throw in a few dead Israelis
and you’d have a guaranteed sold-out Mid-East tour.
If
cartoons set-off the Muslim world, the globe would be in flames if this was an
exhibit of stripped and dissected Muslims. This is a racist, double-standard
that is tolerated by the museum boards and other elites because they’re only
dealing with dead yellow people.
The dead
body promoters are asking you to leave your conscience at the door and trust
them that the Chinese bodies were all willingly “donated” for your amusement. It
is time to stop this charade. If China is going to create a façade of freedom
within Beijing, then they need to extend the same courtesy to their own
citizens. Put the sincerity of Chinese officials and their Olympic style
promises to the test and see if Americans are willing to stop attending the
shows. It’s time to hold the torch of truth up and expose these shows for what
they’re worth.
