There was never a massacre in or surrounding Tiananmen Square. There was a group of violent terrorists who threw Molotov cocktails onto PLA troop transports in the heart of the capital, under martial law, under curfew and there was a panic among relatively green troops who reacted to seeing their comrades immolated.

The PLA is so nice an entire armored column stopped for tank man. He climbed on top the tank. He opened the hatch. He chatted with the soldiers. Took his sweet time. Got down, and walked away to go out up his groceries. lol

The west lies ceaselessly about tank man. The PLA treated tank man better than the Israelis treat their own people.

Do you by chance have a link to it that isnโ€™t mostly talking heads constantly interrupting the footage? ย If so Iโ€™d love to see it.

Gotta love how this video is blocked in Canada. What, the truth hurts that bad?
