Tomorrow for many around the world, a time when people remember the #TiananmenSquare incident, the #TiananmenVigil, this is often used as an opportunity to demonize #China, the CPC, but the facts are different to what we might hear on western news, please keep an open mind

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 pic.twitter.com/p5H0U7WSP5

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… pic.twitter.com/jwjxLxliNv

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 pic.twitter.com/MjcqUxcbd3

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…

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. twitter.com/HaiTaoYang10/s…

"He watched the military enter the square and did not observe any mass firing of weapons into the crowds, although sporadic gunfire was heard. He said that most of the troops which entered the square were actually armed only with anti-riot gear – truncheons and wooden clubs"

"Leaders of the protest, including Liu Xiaobo, the winner of last year's Nobel Peace prize, urged the students to depart the square, and the Chilean diplomat relayed that "once agreement was reached for the students to withdraw... students left the square through the south east "

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… pic.twitter.com/AbBkM6o89d

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 pic.twitter.com/rZ3zWk1TT8

"In fact, the U.S. government was actively involved in promoting the “pro-democracy” protests through an extensive, well-funded, internationally coordinated propaganda machine that pumped out rumors, half-truths and lies from the moment the protests started in mid-April 1989"

The greatest achievement of Western propaganda still has to be the myth of a June 4, 1989, Tiananmen Square massacre, with talk of hundreds if not thousands of protesting students mowed down by military machine guns. japantimes.co.jp/opinion/2014/0…
