The images are shocking. Armoured tanks plow into crowds of people, flames from burning buses light up the night sky, and bleeding bodies are rushed to hospital. For weeks student protesters in Beijing's Tiananmen Square have been demonstrating for political reform of China's communist government. A declaration of martial law has failed to quell the protests, and now the government has called in the military. Death is all around as the CBC's Tom Kennedy reports.
The massacre begins shortly after midnight as tanks and armoured personnel carriers roll through the streets, crushing hastily erected barricades and into Tiananmen Square. After launching tear gas and using loudspeakers to order people to leave, the army starts shooting. But the protesters fight back, beating army officers or simply standing their ground. They form human walls around foreign press to make sure the story gets out to the world.

This is the root of Western disrespect of China. Mikey, do you have any logical argument for that? I simply do not buy it. God is rooted in childhood indoctrination. It is like "Hitler is above all laws, including the Finnish"
This represents the frustration of the Chinese. The West are brainwashed with a self-supremacy deity. They are willing to KILL ALL for their barbaric almighty.
Christians must learn to live with diversity.
And speak not of brainwashing. There are many people in China who don't even know riots occurred in 1989.
I ask you, if China is not doing anything wrong, then why have they covered this up? Why is it that you cannot Google this video from within China?

The trick of Western media is to make-believe those convoy burning rioters were doing it for democracy, so they can burn, they can assult the troops, they born no responsibility.
Watch the tankman video see how extremely restrained and accommodating PLA were.
