Misinformation from China

It is somewhat reassuring to know that Communist propaganda never dies:



"BEIJING (AFP) - China said it was right to send tanks to crush the Tiananmen democracy demonstrations in 1989, as it stepped up security in Beijing following the death of purged former prime minister Zhao Ziyang."



Isn't it interesting that the Chinese credit their malicious oppression of free speech the cause of "China's economic transformation over the past 15 years"? They feel the unjust murder of thousands brought "stability." I guess stability is a climate where people are too afraid to speak, a culture of fear.
