(He's talking about the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre)

So where are the pictures of the "10 000" killed in Tian an men as widely and absurdly reported by the lying Western media???? (A figure notably avoided in the above piece with the weasel words about "numbers still unknown" (what, 40 years later, with the whole world's press on the scene?) - weasel words because nobody died in Tian an men and the relatively few deaths around the square were caused and provoked by the violent attacks of the laughable propaganda-described "peaceful democratic demonstrators" on the state forces and police, including some truly horrible lynch killings of young soldiers and police, dropping boulders on their heads eg (see Guardian at the time) , or burning alive in a personel carrier.

The entire Western press eventually conceded everyone left the square unharmed - inlcluding the shamefully mealy mouthed BBC John Simpson). Now the lie is repeated again with suitable innuendo and lauding of "brave" dissidents. Incidentally the tanks stopped for the man - they did not "crush" him which is the implication always left. Just the opposite, their actions were highly civilised and retstrained.
