"About the Women that where executed in china. The UN seems to back those claims:

Um, i don't see any mentioning of "execution" in any of the people under the "China" column -- can you point it out specifically? Again, there are execution mentioned (search for execution in the link you posted), but none are in the Chinese section. China do execute a lot of people, and currently about 1/2 of them each year seems to be corrupt Communist officials and business people that accept bribes, but I have never heard of an execution of a dissident in China -- they do hand out heavy sentences, but the outright execution for dissidents are only if they have committed violent acts (so most of them are in the Xinjiang province where it's largely Islamic population and when they stage protests it's often times very violent).

That was dealing with the cases of the evil Falun Gong movement that must be terrifying the communist government.

If I remember right reading back on your post. I do remember a lady being executed for taking or giving payment for some service or item rendered (I don't remember what kind of business she was in.)
