Thread. Seeing the anniversary of one of Americas colour revolutions in China is coming up, I thought it was time to repost what was lost. There are many myths regarding the supposed #TiananmenSquareMassacre, knowing what we know now, how America fabricates information...
Take a look at that Iconic Image, the western media portrays #TankMan as a symbol of defiance, but what is the truth? Did you know he lived? Did you know he was actually stopping the tanks from leaving the square the morning after? Did you notice he has two bags? Lets see below Image
Here we have the full video, as you can see he goes on his merry way, his friends even give the soldiers a wave, that second bag, where did that go? A gift for the soldiers perhaps, but that is speculation. Facts are he stopped them leaving, and he lived
This is quite an important video, It is from one of the protest leaders at the time, here he states that there was no bloodshed in #Tiananmen. Now he is not the only one, there were reporters in the square that night and below are some sources that also back this up.
The #protests were in their 7 week, yes 7 weeks of occupying #Beijing capital, there was negotiations with the leaders of China, but many felt emboldened by what they viewed as western support eventually the order was given to clear the square, Warning, some images are disturbing Image
June 2-3 the army made its first advance to clear #TiananmenSquare, they were at this time, mostly unarmed, their vehicles were torched, those that made it out of the vehicles were subject to beatings, even death by beating globalresearch.ca/what-really-ha
Many soldiers were burned, some had their dead bodies strung up on buses and overpasses. The western media CHOOSE not to show their viewers those pictures. Below is a footage of the vehicles being burned, many still had solders still inside, ones that got out, faced mob justice Image
Now the the more radical of the protesters were armed, from weapons they had looted from the dead, and the #PLA that surrendered their arms, ready for the next showdown. globalresearch.ca/what-really-ha…
When the army did get to #Tiananmen there were journalists present on the scene, this armored car got stuck, mobbed by the protesters, and according to Jeff Widener (video below) not all the soldiers made it out alive that night.
Here is an interview with the man that took the photo of #Tankman, he states clearly that the protesters were killing soldiers, mob justice, mob violence.
So now we are getting to #June4th, and this is to debunk a major myth, that is that there was a #TiananmenSquareMassacre, firstly here is some proof from a non #China news source, from an organization with a reputation of getting the truth out.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews…
So we have officials, diplomats, journalists all saying there was no bloodshed in #Tiananmen, Lets hear from some of the people that were in the square at the time. I'm not saying no one died, were getting there, one thing at a time,
Here we have the #TiananmenSquare #protesters leaving peacefully in the early hours of the morning, the army arrived at the square, they had a message broadcast on the loud speaker instructing them where to leave, and they did after negotiations.
There is no denying their was fighting, and deaths, both China and the west claim this, so where was it? It happened around the Muxidi area, where the now armed protesters, and the soldiers, who many had lost comrades were set for a show down. telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews
Here Is a picture of solders in #TiananmenSquare after the protesters have been cleared out, the myth of thousands, or tens of thousands killed, well it would be a mess, not a place you would sit down to have your breakfast, all you can see is burnt rubbish and some red flags Image
There is clearly more to this story than is told on western media please keep an open mind.
