The twentieth anniversary of the Tiananmen Square Massacre is upon us.
The events of June 3 and June 4 1989 in Beijing, China, are profoundly relevant to every American.
About the worst thing anybody can do is assume that what happens ‘over there’ will have little or no impact on our daily bread ‘over here’. Think again….
The events of June 3 and June 4 1989 in Tiananmen Square were astonishingly brutal. Armed troops were called in by the communist dictators to crush unarmed, peaceful protesters, demanding greater democracy in China. Demanding greater freedoms, which Americans -mostly- still take for granted, but which are nonetheless being steadily and deliberately eroded and undermined. All this what is taking place today, in June 2009, in the last bastion of Liberty in the Free World – America- is being wonderfully dressed up. A compliant media establishment is re-defining the concept of the “Tame Pet Poodle ” of the current White House incumbent. Many journalists and reporters are remarkably poorly read in History and Economics, not to mention Philosophy and Ethics. In the name of ‘fairness’ and ‘equality’, and whatever other sugar coating the present socialist regime in power in Washington chooses to slap on the cake, there is a horrible backward slide taking place. More power, and more power still, increasingly concentrated in fewer and fewer hands. The inevitable result is that mistakes will be more massive, more irreversible, more likely.

Take a look at these YouTube videos. And ask yourself these questions:
*** Are you sure this doesn’t matter to us?
*** Are you sure our “Great Leaders “, in kow-towing to the SAME Chinese Communist Government, which is STILL in power, are doing the right thing?
*** Are you sure you like the idea of Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, and Tim Geithner, begging bowls in hand, bobbing up and down in front of the same dictatorial, ruthless regime?
*** Are you sure you don’t mind the fact that we now OWE the Chinese Government in excess of One Trillion borrowed dollars?
*** Are you sure this pigeon ain’t gonna come home to roost one day?

I spent several years of my life working every day with ordinary Chinese people. I have written some stories about those days. I learned about 500 to 600 words of Chinese. Enough to build up a great respect and warmth for the incredibly hard working, hospitable, delightful average Chinese person. They showed me photos of their families.
What happened to them, and what is still happening to them, and the cynical media manipulation that goes on in China -AND AMERICA!- to this very day, should be a source of outrage to all freedom cherishing Americans. Our “Great Leaders ” however, desperate for Chinese cash to fund their impossible,impractical, Utopian dreams, have been strangely silent on the subject of Human Rights and democracy in China. And Tibet. To this day, the Chinese Communist Government (read: overwhelming power concentrated in few hands) do everything they can to block the memory of the Tiananmen Square Massacre.

We are talking a mere twenty years. Such… is the power of brain washing, and State Control. So what did happen? Maybe it’s all a mistake? Western propaganda? Maybe nothing much happened at all?
That is what the Communist Government of China would love you to believe. And our “Great Leaders “…? What would they like us to believe? Or would it be more correct to phrase the question this way:
“What would Clinton-Pelosi-Geithner prefer that you IGNORED?? “

Every thinking American should pause, and reflect on these terrible events. And what it means for us. And what it says about our “Dear Leaders ” and their spineless -desperate- begging expeditions to China. “Please -PLEASE!- buy our Treasury Bonds “.

Finally, consider the words of Dr. Steve Sjuggerud.

“Yesterday, a bunch of Chinese people laughed at us…
What was the joke? U.S. Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner told a crowd of students in Beijing that the trillion dollars worth of U.S. government bonds the Chinese hold are “very safe. “
Students laughed. They know the truth.
It was an embarrassing day for America. I never thought I’d see it…
In my career, I’ve learned there’s nothing surer in finance than this: When a Treasury Secretary explicitly tells you ‘your money is safe,’ then your money is in big trouble…. “

Time to wake up, America. Get vocal. Get snarly. Get suspicious.
And share these videos with your friends.
