Chinese Communist leader Hu Jintao is visiting the United States and the sycophant Obama administration is rolling out the red carpet (pun intended)with a fancy White House dinner. George Bush only had a working lunch with the totalitarian leader. Well, not all Americans have forgotten Tibet or the slaughter of Tienanmen Square in 1989. An intelligence report received by the Soviet politburo estimated that 3,000 freedom fighters were killed there, according to a document found in the Soviet archive.
Folk singer and activist Joan Baez and I don't agree on much but I find her song on Tienanmen Square to be haunting:
In the month of June, in the darkness of the moon
Went the descendants of a hundred flowers
And time may never tell how many of them fell
Like the petals of a rose in some satanic shower
Everyone was weeping in all of China
And Tienanmen Square....
And Wang Wei Lin, you remember him
All alone he stood before the tanks
A shadow of forgotten ancestors in Tienanmen Square....
China Shall Be Free
China Shall Be Free
China Shall Be Free
