Addressing the governors of all the states where violence had escalated, the president urged them to get their acts together and taunted them for being \u201cweak\u201d. Unless they started cracking down hard on the rioters\u2014if necessary shooting some of them for good measure\u2014\u201cyou\u2019ll end up looking like jerks.\u201d<\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5>One is tempted to ask: is this America in June 2020?\u00a0Or is this a replay of June 1989 before the Tiananmen Square massacre?<\/h5>\n<h5>Because if the police\u00a0\u00a0<em>really<\/em> got tough with American rioters they would have to do a bit more than make threatening motions with their guns\u2014they would have to pull the triggers too. Tear gas and water canons are not going to do the trick. They didn\u2019t work in China against peaceful protesters. So how on earth can they work in America against <em>violent<\/em>\u00a0ones?<\/h5>\n<h5>The People\u2019s Liberation Army in China, which had modelled itself on the ruthless regime of Joseph Stalin, had no hesitation in crushing Chinese rioters in a way that President Trump, for all we know, may secretly admire.<\/h5>\n<h5>Here\u2019s what they did in China to quell riots in June 1989, just over 30 years ago. The way things are going this could happen in America any day now. Secret cable from British Ambassador, Sir Alan Donald, to the\u00a0 British government, reporting the events at Tiananmen Square as they unfolded:<\/h5>\n<h5 style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>\u201cArmy APCs [armoured personnel carriers] opened fire on the crowd before running over them. APCs ran over civilians at 65kph. Students linked arms but were mown down. APCs then ran over bodies time and time again to make\u201dpie\u201d and remains collected by bulldozer\u2026. Remains incinerated and hosed down drains.\u201d\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5>Sir Alan\u2019s cable continues: \u201cWounded girl students begged for their lives but were bayoneted \u2026 1000 survivors were told they could escape but were then mown down by specially prepared MG [machine gun] positions.\u201d The cable reaches a climax with its dry concluding sentence: \u201cMinimum estimate of civilian dead 10,000.\u201d<\/h5>\n<h5>I guess Trump\u2019s rallying call to America\u2019s governors to crush rioters\u2014\u201dor you\u2019ll look like jerks\u201d\u2014is making some of them them wonder if the time is ripe for a Tiananmen Square incident in Minneapolis, New York, or Los Angeles.<\/h5>\n<h5>After all, surely their president has given them the green light with his rousing battle cry\u2014\u201dWhen the looting starts, the shooting starts!\u201d<\/h5>\n<h5>Trump began to talk tough after his former press secretary Anthony Scaramucci mocked him openly as \u201cCoward in Chief.\u201d This came about after Trump and family were forced to vacate the White House and take refuge for their own safety in the bunker normally used in case of a nuclear attack. So there we had Trump and First Lady Melania sitting in their subterranean hidey-hole a bit like Hitler and Evan Braun in their 1945 bunker at the end of World War Two. Things had come to this. The cops were worried that the White House was about to be torched and the Trumps become toast.<\/h5>\n<h5>But no, it didn\u2019t happen. Maybe this is only the dress rehearsal for the play. One day, in the not too distant future, maybe the real-life drama will be enacted as the White House goes up in flames and the main actors are barbecued to death.<\/h5>\n<h5>Believe me, there won\u2019t be any shortage of extras.<\/h5>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">\u2014\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a7\u00a0 \u00a0\u2014<\/h5>\n<h5>How America has changed! It\u2019s almost unrecognizable. A new country, a new wasteland. Good Americans know in their bones that the best days are over. That dystopia loom. Grrr, something wicked this way comes\u2026<\/h5>\n<h5>Entire neighbourhoods of looted shops tell their own story. Rows of burnt-out police cars. Obscene graffiti scrawled over urine-splashed walls. Manhattan\u2019s trendiest shopping district, SoHo, now resembles a rubbish dump. In the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/debate\/article-8378277\/TOM-LEONARD-perfect-storm-power-destroy-Donald-Trump.html\"><span style=\"color: #ffff00;\">words<\/span><\/a><\/strong> of British reporter Tom Leonard, writing from New York: \u201cLuxury store after luxury store, including Apple, Louis Vuitton, Gucci and Chanel, has been picked clean and covered in broken glass.\u201d<\/h5>\n<h5>This is the worst civil unrest since the assassination of Martin Luther King in 1968.<\/h5>\n<h5>Tom Leonard continues:<\/h5>\n<h5 style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>\u201cAnd where is the US President? Doing what he does best\u2014<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/debate\/article-8378277\/TOM-LEONARD-perfect-storm-power-destroy-Donald-Trump.html\"><span style=\"color: #ffff00;\">throwing petrol on the flames<\/span><\/a>. Donald Trump has been tweeting out violent defiance, though his toughened image was dented\u00a0 by the revelation that his Secret Service bodyguards were so alarmed when a 1,000-strong demonstration gathered outside the White House, they bundled him down to a fortified underground bunker for his own protection.\u201d\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5>Trump\u2019s soaring popularity of a few weeks ago has seen a spectacular nosedive in recent days. It was common knowledge that his Democrat opponent\u00a0 Joe Biden, seen as a senile halfwit by many Americans, didn\u2019t stand a chance against the Orange Emperor seated on his throne in the White House. This situation has now been reversed. Unbelievably, the feeble-minded Biden, without even uttering a word to make himself more attractive, has suddenly forged ahead in the opinion polls and has a 10-point lead over Trump.<\/h5>\n<h5>Meanwhile, the black community is hopping mad. The long lockdown has made them edgier and more volatile, like caged animals or wild dogs kept on a leash for too long.<\/h5>\n<h5>Covid-19 has hit then hard, much harder than it has hit White Americans. The pandemic has wiped out 100,000 Americans but has devastated the black population disproportionately for several reasons too tedious to explain\u2014partly genetic, partly because their relative poverty and worse health care and nutrition make them susceptible to obesity, diabetes and other such debilitating afflictions. Their visceral outrage over the death of 46-year-old George Floyd has left them baying for blood.<\/h5>\n<h5>The looting of shops and the burning of cars are simply acts of retaliatory vandalism against a society they perceive as fundamentally unfair.<\/h5>\n<h5>They want justice, and this is one thing Donald Trump is certainly not giving them. He is simply whipping them into\u00a0 a further fever pitch of hysteria. His incendiary mantra, \u2018When the looting starts, the shooting starts!\u201d is as inflammatory as Marie Antoinette\u2019s alleged jibe at the starving masses during the French Revolution, \u201cIf they have no bread, let them eat cake!\u201d<\/h5>\n<h5>Last Saturday, the perma-tanned president of the most powerful country on earth poured more gasoline over the raging flames\u00a0 sweeping America by warning protesters outside the White House: <strong><em>\u201cYou face vicious dogs and ominous weapons!\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Trump-Gasoline-on-the-flames.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-208263\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Trump-Gasoline-on-the-flames-768x530.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"540\" height=\"372\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Trump-Gasoline-on-the-flames-768x530.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Trump-Gasoline-on-the-flames-300x207.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Trump-Gasoline-on-the-flames.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">GASOLINE\u00a0 ON\u00a0 THE FLAMES<\/h2>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>\u201cYou face vicious dogs and ominous weapons!<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>When the looting starts, the shooting starts!\u201d<\/strong><\/h4>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>\u2014\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a7\u00a0 \u00a0\u2014<\/strong><\/h4>\n<h5>On Sunday, in a further escalation of fine rhetoric, President Trump issued yet more warnings replete with fire and brimstone. One is almost tempted to think that here is a man who is doing his best to ignite further violence, whip the black masses up into a blind fury, and manufacture a Tiananmen Square massacre in America.<\/h5>\n<h5>Maybe Trump needs a good civil war in order to get re-elected.<\/h5>\n<h5>After his latest address to the public,\u00a0 in which he recommended every governor to deploy the National Guard to \u201cdominate the streets\u201d with their \u201coverwhelming presence\u201d, Trump picked up his Bible and walked out of the White House on a staged propaganda walk to St John\u2019s Church. Here he doubtless\u00a0 intended to have a big powwow with God and solicit the Deity\u2019s guidance on the dark days ahead.<\/h5>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">VIDEO\u00a0 :\u00a0 7.15 mins<\/h4>\n<div align=\"center\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LIFzueIdmBc\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n&#8212;<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.darkmoon.me\/2020\/when-the-shooting-starts\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One is tempted to ask: is this America in June 2020?
