Former Ambassador Sam Brownback says the CCP is carrying out 3 genocides simultaneously

# uyghurs uyghur persecution tibetans ccp chinese communist party chinese genocide cultural genocide dalai lama falun gong falun gong suppression forced organ harvesting muslim uyghurs tibetan buddhism tibetan cultural erasure

Former Ambassador Sam Brownback asserts the CCP executes three simultaneous genocides against Uyghurs, Tibetans, and Falun Gong practitioners. He details how China bans naming children Muhammad, slaughters Tibetan Buddhist leaders to appoint a state candidate for the Dalai Lama, and decimated Falun Gong from 90 million to 20 million via forced organ harvesting. Brownback argues these barbaric methods aim to literally wipe out specific cultures, suggesting the regime's intent is total eradication rather than mere suppression.

Three Genocides in China 00:01:47
	You argue in the book that there are three genocides happening in China, which is a pretty significant thing to say.
	I happen to agree with you on exactly this, actually, but why don't you lay out the argument for me?
	The three are the Uyghur genocide, and it's primarily Muslim Uyghurs.
	They're kind of fine with the Uyghur culture, but they're not with Islam.
	It's the only country in the world I've been able to find you cannot name a child Muhammad, but that's one that's been publicly declared.
	But there's a genocide that's been going on in Tibet.
	Tibetan Buddhist.
	Initially, they slaughtered so many of the Tibetan Buddhists and the leaders, and now it's a cultural genocide, just really trying to rid the place of Buddhism, Tibetan Buddhism.
	They want to name the next Dalai Lama, the Chinese Communist Party, an officially atheistic group, wants to name the next official leader of Tibetan Buddhism, a faith, which is just galling and ironic at the same time.
	And then Falun Gong, they have decimated this group.
	That got up by Chinese numbers to 90 million at one point in time, probably down 20 million.
	Who knows really what the actual number is?
	And on the most diabolical, barbaric ways of locking people up, throwing them in jail, forced organ harvesting, as you've written about.
	I mean, it's things.
	If somebody wrote about this and said it happened in the 15th century, you could kind of go, well, I could see that.
	But today, and it's happening.
	And that's why I say these are three genocides, because the intent is there to literally wipe out this group, this culture.

Three Genocides in China 00:01:47

You argue in the book that there are three genocides happening in China, which is a pretty significant thing to say.

I happen to agree with you on exactly this, actually, but why don't you lay out the argument for me?

The three are the Uyghur genocide, and it's primarily Muslim Uyghurs.

They're kind of fine with the Uyghur culture, but they're not with Islam.

It's the only country in the world I've been able to find you cannot name a child Muhammad, but that's one that's been publicly declared.

But there's a genocide that's been going on in Tibet.

Tibetan Buddhist.

Initially, they slaughtered so many of the Tibetan Buddhists and the leaders, and now it's a cultural genocide, just really trying to rid the place of Buddhism, Tibetan Buddhism.

They want to name the next Dalai Lama, the Chinese Communist Party, an officially atheistic group, wants to name the next official leader of Tibetan Buddhism, a faith, which is just galling and ironic at the same time.

And then Falun Gong, they have decimated this group.

That got up by Chinese numbers to 90 million at one point in time, probably down 20 million.

Who knows really what the actual number is?

And on the most diabolical, barbaric ways of locking people up, throwing them in jail, forced organ harvesting, as you've written about.

I mean, it's things.

If somebody wrote about this and said it happened in the 15th century, you could kind of go, well, I could see that.

But today, and it's happening.

And that's why I say these are three genocides, because the intent is there to literally wipe out this group, this culture.
