尊敬的诺贝尔评奖委员会和哈维尔先生：
我们是多年关心并参与betway必威体育官网 民主运动的流亡海外作家、异议人士和海外华裔。我们一直谴责中共政府的一切迫害行为，我们同样反对今天中共政府对作家刘晓波的迫害。
但是，我们不认为刘晓波先生是2010年诺贝尔和平奖的合格候选人。因为，就在最近，被非法拘留近一年的刘晓波于2009年12月23日在北京法庭审判中歪曲事实地发表了《我没有敌人——我的最后陈述》的陈词，刘晓波授权妻子于2010年1月21日将此陈词发表在自由亚洲电台和德国之声等网站。在此陈词中，他仅凭中共司法机构在他拘押期间刻意对他个人的特殊待遇，粉饰中共政权恶劣的人权和司法状况。他在此文中前后矛盾，既说中共对他的治罪是以言治罪，又称赞中共把“尊重和保障人权”写进宪法，是“标志着人权已经成为betway必威体育官网 法治的根本原则之一。”在同一文中，刘晓波还称赞监狱的“柔性化的管理”，“ 为在押人员提供了人性化的生活环境”，“让人感到温暖”。
当刘晓波在监狱中受到“柔性化和人性化”的特殊待遇的同时，在同一个极权国家、同一个年代、同一个司法制度下，betway必威体育官网 人权律师高智晟等其他良心犯却受到警方施加如电击生殖器等令人发指的酷刑。刘晓波明知中共在残酷摧残高智晟先生和其他良心犯的同时给予他特殊优厚待遇是别有用心，他却仍在他的《我没有敌人——我的最后陈述》中说betway必威体育官网 政府“对普世人权标准的承认”这类完全违背事实的谎言。刘晓波早在1989年的北京天安门运动后，就在全国联播的电视台讲话中，为中共在天安门广场的屠杀洗脱罪名、掩盖事实。他的这些表现都使他丧失了一位诺贝尔奖得主应具备的道德形象。
众所周知, 中共一贯拒绝民间社会的任何力量与它分享权力，它把任何要它放弃独裁专制的人都视为威胁到它的政权的敌对势力并加以残酷迫害。无论是以抗争的方式还是以规劝的方式，中共都不能容忍，即使刘晓波以《零八宪章》这类规劝中共接受民主制度的谏言书的方式，中共也不能容忍。这次刘晓波的被捕再次说明，认为中共会自行改良、和平转型成民主制度的幻想彻底破灭，也说明刘晓波的劝说和谏言之路是完全走不通的。
刘晓波如何说话是他的自由，但是作为公众人物的“异见人士”，他不顾事实地对一贯践踏人权的中共公开赞扬的行为，他的既为自己辩护又为中共恶行洗脱的矛盾说辞，都立下了一个混淆和颠倒是非的先例，对betway必威体育官网 民主运动起到误导作用和恶劣影响。
betway必威体育官网 的异见人士争论的焦点是：如何看待betway必威体育官网 共产党的极权专制统治？这个争论导致betway必威体育官网 异见人士分为“抗争派” 和“合作派”。前者彻底否定共产极权政府、唤醒民众抵制专制、建立民主政府，后者与极权政府合作、幻想共同建立“民主制度”。由于betway必威体育官网 异见人士队伍中的这个严重的分歧，加上中共情治机关的渗透和收买，使得异见人士这个队伍越发混乱和复杂，betway必威体育官网 当前的民主运动就像当初东欧国家共产党倒台前的情况一样混乱和复杂。因此我们认为，对于刘晓波这样一个有争议的 “合作派”代表人物，也许只有时间才能说明他的真实面目。
最后，我们要再一次说明，我们反对中共极权政府的任何侵犯人权和自由的行为，无论对“抗争派”、还是对“合作派”的迫害和监禁，都是以言治罪的非法行为。然而，如果把诺贝尔和平奖授予给刘晓波这样的形象有缺陷的“合作派”代表人物，这将对betway必威体育官网 人民争取人权、自由和民主的事业带来负面影响。
为了鼓舞正在反抗中共暴政的正义的betway必威体育官网 人民，在诺贝尔和平奖的betway必威体育官网 人选上，我们希望诺贝尔评奖委员会考虑那些真正为争取betway必威体育官网 人民自由和人权作出实际奉献的其他合适人选，如：还正在遭受着中共迫害的高智晟律师和胡佳，还有被中共迫害而逃离betway必威体育官网 的高耀洁医生。谢谢。

A letter to the Nobel Peace Prize Committee and Mr. Havel
from Overseas Chinese Concerned with Chinese Democracy

Respected Nobel Prize Committee and Mr. Vaclav Havel:
We are a group of exiled overseas writers, dissidents, and overseas Chinese, who are concerned about and have been participating in the Chinese democracy movement for many years. We have always condemned the persecutory conduct of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) government, and we are equally opposed to the CCP’s current persecution of writer Liu Xiaobo.
However, we do not consider that Liu Xiaobo qualifies as a candidate for the 2010 Nobel Peace Prize. As recently as December 23, 2009, he made a statement entitled “I have no enemies—my final statement” during his trial after being detained for nearly a year. This statement was released to Radio Free Asia and Voice of Germany by his wife on January 21, 2010. In this statement, he whitewashed the Communist regime’s appalling human rights record and legal system, based on only his own special treatment by the CCP justice system during his detention. He also contradicted himself by first saying that the CCP was criminalizing him for his speech, and then praising the CCP for putting “respecting and protecting human rights” into the constitution, saying that “it is a sign that human rights have become one of the fundamental principles of Chinese law.” Also in this statement, he praised the CCP prison system for its “tender management,” “offering inmates a humane living environment,” and “making them feel warm.”
At the same time that Liu Xiaobo was receiving “tender and humane” special treatment in jail, under the same totalitarian regime, in the same year, under the same legal system, Chinese human rights lawyer Gao Zhisheng and other prisoners of conscience were suffering from brutal tortures as atrocious as electric shocks to the genitals by the police. Liu Xiaobo clearly knew that the CCP was deliberately giving him special lenient treatment while ruthlessly brutalizing Mr. Gao Zhisheng and other prisoners of conscience. But he still said in his “I have no enemies” statement that the Chinese government “recognizes universal standards of human rights.” This is consistent with his conduct after the Tiananmen movement of 1989. Back then in a speech broadcast across the national television network, he helped the CCP to cover up its massacre during the June 4th movement. Because of these deeds and conduct, he has lost the moral image fit for a Nobel Peace Prize recipient.
As everyone knows, the CCP has always refused to share power with any force outside the government. It also views anyone who demands it to relinquish its dictatorship as “hostile forces.” These “hostile forces” are subjected to brutal persecution by the CCP, regardless of whether the demand was in the form of resistance or gentle suggestions, including Liu Xiaobo’s “Charter 08,” which tries to persuade the CCP to adopt democracy. Liu’s arrest this time again demonstrates the fall of the fantasy that the CCP regime will reform itself and peacefully transition into a democracy. It also shows that Liu Xiaobo’s path of persuasion and advice can only lead to a dead end.
Liu Xiaobo is free to say whatever he wants, but as a public-figure “dissident,” his disregard for facts and open praise for the CCP regime that tramples on human rights, and his attempt to both defend himself and exonerate the CCP, all set a precedent of confounding truth and falsehood that misguides and negatively impacts the Chinese democracy movement.
The point of dispute among the Chinese dissidents is this: How do we confront the totalitarian rule of the CCP? This dispute divides Chinese dissidents into those who favor change through resistance and those who favor change through cooperation. The former completely negate the totalitarian Communist system, calling for the people to reject dictatorship and establish a democratic government; the latter cooperate with the CCP, hoping to work with it to establish a “democratic system.” The existence of such severe differences among the Chinese dissidents, plus the CCP intelligence operation’s infiltration and buy off, makes the ranks of dissidents highly complex. The current Chinese democracy movement is as chaotic and complicated as the resistance movements before the collapse of the Communist parties in the Eastern European countries. It is our belief that perhaps only time can reveal the true face of Liu Xiaobo as a controversial figure and representative of the “cooperative faction.”
Finally, we would like to clarify that we are opposed to any infringements on freedom and human rights by the CCP. We also consider it illegal to criminalize free speech and persecute and imprison either those who try to bring change through resistance or those who try to achieve reform through cooperation. Nonetheless, awarding the Nobel Peace Prize to Liu Xiaobo, with his defective image and being a representative of the “cooperative faction,” will have a negative impact on the Chinese peoples’ struggle for human rights, freedom, and democracy.
To inspire the Chinese people currently struggling against the brutal tyranny of the CCP, with respect to the selection of Chinese candidates for the Nobel Peace Prize, we hope that the Nobel Committee will consider those individuals who have made real contributions to the struggle for freedom, human rights and democracy in China. They are, for example, Gao Zhisheng and Hu Jia who are currently being persecuted by the CCP, and Dr. Gao Yaojie who just fled China to escape persecution.
Sincerely and respectfully yours,
