With all of the hubbub and fanfare surrounding the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, one peculiar and unnerving aspect of the event is quite obvious: There’s a total lack of coverage by the corporate legacy media on China’s human rights abuses. “Transplant tourism,” the practice of people seeking organ transplants that are forcibly extracted from unwilling “donors,” is more or less completely ignored and swept under the carpet.

Directed by Mathias Magnason and hosted and narrated by singer-songwriter James H. White, a new documentary titled “Canaries in a Cold War” blows the lid clean off of the evil institution of forced organ harvesting. The main victims of this crime have been peaceful Falun Gong practitioners.

Hammered Down

The current Chinese regime, a communist regime (the Chinese Communist Party, aka CCP), took control in 1949. Over the years, the CCP has cracked down on all religions within its borders. In other words, the state has replaced religion and rules with an iron fist. Any “nails” brave enough to stand up are quickly hammered down.
