Since The Epoch Times first published a series of editorials called Nine Commentaries on The Communist Party, an increasing tide of Chinese people have disassociated themselves from the Chinese Communist Party and its affiliates.

As of last weekend, fifty million Chinese had resigned from the Party and its affiliates, the Communist Youth League (for teens) and Young Pioneers (for children.) A rally in Tell Aviv, Israel, celebrated this milestone event.

Chairman of the Hebrew Writers Association, Mr. Hakak, has addressed the rally: "Since The Epoch Times newspaper started to reveal what is happening in China, it has been spreading like fire that cannot be stopped.” He said that the message of the Nine Commentaries, which "together form an uncensored indictment,” is spreading all over the world, and protests against the crimes in China can be heard from all nations. "When people would like to start writing the real history of the new China, they will start with the Nine Commentaries,” he said.

"We make an outcry so strong that it will break the imperviousness of the evil. We carry from here a moral voice,calling the whole world to open its eyes", he concluded. The Nine Commentaries have been published in book form and translated into 30 languages.

Mr. Puah, managing director of the Manhigut Yehudit (Jewish Leadership) faction in the Likud Party has attended the rally and called the leaders of the world’s nations and personally to the future Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu not to ignore the atrocities of the dictatorial regime in China. He said that the organ harvesting of Falun Gong practitioners may have been reduced due to the increasing awareness in the world, and that increasing the awareness of what happens in China can make it harder for the Chinese regime to carry on with its crimes.         

Rabbi Cohen, of Rabbis for Human Rights, called for freedom in China. Freedom, specifically, from, "Fear of imprisonment, fear of persecution, fear of murder, fear of having their organs farmed throughout the world.

"Let them be free let be free to blog, let them be free to surf the internet, let them be free to practice their faith, let them be free to practice compassion", said Cohen.

Mr. Bar Ilan, spokesman of the Falun Dafa Information Center in Israel, compared in his speech how during World War II the Allies kept silent despite evidence and testimonies of the crimes that the Nazis were committing, to the way the world is unwilling to act now despite increasing and incontrovertible evidence of the persecution of Falun Gong in China today.

Mr. Bar Ilan told a recently uncovered story about a Polish spy who managed to deliver reports from within the Auschwitz death camp. "It means that during four years the Allies had known about the Nazi genocide of the Jewish people. Everybody knows about the horrible damages done by the Nazi regime. The Chinese regime, on the other hand, rules one-fifth of the world's population and has been in power not for just ten years, but for 60 years.”

Mr. Itai, Director of the Israeli Epoch Times office, said that over 50% of the population in China have suffered persecution from the CCP during its rule. "Now, after reading the Nine Commentaries, they understand the true nature of the Communist Party, and they are saying: Enough! in the most peaceful way possible, by declaring that they quit the party. It has become a hot topic in conversations in China. This is bringing about great changes in China, which will affect everyone in the world," he said.

"Morality cannot be limited by geography. We have an obligation to stand with and support the brave Chinese who are quitting the party. Also, it tears down the illusion of the CCP that if you think it is bad, you are all alone," he said.

"You are not alone," Itai told the Chinese people. "People all over the world are celebrating this event with you, and people throughout China too."

Burmese refugees in Israel, whose homeland is ruled by an oppressive regime that is being supported by the Chinese communist regime, came to support the rally and to call on the Chinese regime to stop the Human rights violation in their homeland.
