Tiananmen: Did a Massacre Happen?

Was There a Massacre in Tiananmen Square?

According to the Department of State, The Columbia Journalism Review, and Britain's Daily Telegraph, the Tiananmen "massacre" never happened. Yet the "massacre" is constantly referred by Western media to this day.

The Rape of Nanjing did happen – the worst massacre in recorded history – is thoroughly documented, and is never referred to when speaking of Japan. Here's a reminder of that incident:

One of the greatest atrocities in history was the rape of Nanking. Most humans are capable of great evil and this is one horrific example. Several hundred thousand were raped, murdered and tossed into the Yangtze River. There were so many bodies, the water turned red. Others were buried alive after digging their own graves.

Iris Chang's The Rape of Nanking was published November 1997 and became a bestseller while Japan tried to discredit the book. Iris Chang committed suicide on November 10, 2004. She was 36 and left behind a husband and two-year-old child.

Then in 2011, The Flowers of War was released, a movie that focuses on the rape of Nanking, starring Christian Bale.

Roger Ebert wrote in his movie review, "The Rape of Nanking (1937-38), one of the most horrifying atrocities in history, during which the Imperial Japanese Army invaded the Chinese capital city and slaughtered an estimated 300,000 civilians, usually raping the women first. It is one thing for civilians to die in the course of a war, and another for them to be hunted down and wiped out on a personal basis for the crime of their race. 

Here's some in-depth research that's worth reading: What is the Truth about Tiananmen Square?

And here's an interesting update, posted on the anniversary of the Incident, about the Hong Kong Mothers of Tiananmen and their demonstration for 'justice':

HRIC is funded by private foundations and individuals from Europe, Asia, and North America. HRIC obtained supported from the Open Society Institute, the International Centre for Human Rights and Democratic Development, the European Human Rights Foundation, Human Rights Watch, Asia Watch, etc. It also receives funding from National Endowment for Democracy (NED). The New York University School of Law honored Robert L. Bernstein by establishing the Robert L. Bernstein Fellowship in International Human Rights in 2006, annually providing an opportunity for a recent School of Law graduate to engage in full-time human rights work at HRIC

 

So we have George Soros, the NED, and the usual suspects. (In case you've forgotten, the NED is an arm of the freedom-loving CIA).
