On September the 8th, the most eye-catching headline news on the front page of the "Russian Times”, one of Russia’s largest circulated newspapers, was the photo of a parade with more than one hundred thousand participants. Two huge banners held by Moscow Dafa practitioners were in the photo, reading “The World Needs Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance” and “Falun Dafa Practitioners Oppose International Terrorism, Killing and Genocide” inscribed in red.

The photo was taken while it was raining hard, and the banners were above a lot of umbrellas. But people were able to see the eye-catching colourful banners after it cleared up a few minutes later.
