The Chinese Protests (and Why the AmeriKan MSM Covers Them)

I'll give you ONE GUESS as to why it is being reported the way it is.

"Amid protests, China ends access to collapsed schools" by Cara Anna, Associated Press | June 5, 2008

DUJIANGYAN, China - Authorities cordoned off some schools that collapsed in last month's mighty earthquake, keeping out grieving parents and reporters yesterday in a sign that Beijing was becoming increasingly nervous over accusations of shoddy construction....

The students' deaths have become a political challenge for the government, which is trying to provide for the 5 million people left homeless amid growing accusations of corruption in school construction....

Gee, CUI BONO?

Until this week, journalists were free to interview parents, who held protests and erected homemade memorials at collapsed schools, with many angrily accusing the government of corruption.

But police ordered a half-dozen reporters to stop filming and conducting interviews at the Juyuan school yesterday. The group was placed on a bus and sent back to the capital of Sichuan Province, Chengdu, an hour's drive away....

At a collapsed rural school that had received little media attention, a Chengdu official stopped two journalists and asked them to leave. "For your safety," Xu Guangjun said....

One man who lost a daughter in the Juyuan collapse, before his wife shushed him:

"We tried the law, and if the law can't solve the problem, how do we solve it? Eventually, we'll find these officials. We'll sue the province or even the central government."

Lu said that parents were expressing their grief and that the government would do its best to console them:

"This is a very painful thing for the relatives, and anyone would be emotional. This needs to be resolved bit by bit, to let them slowly regain peace psychologically."

Yup, ALL GOVERNMENTS SUCK!!!!

I guess the MSM didn't hear about this protest, huh?


Winter Soldiers Hit the Streets

That's strange.

Those protests are also about YOUNG KIDS being KILLED by an OPPRESSIVE GOVERNMENT, but those protest are not found in my Zionist-controlled AmeriKan War Daily!
