Those Who Cannot Remember the Past Are Condemned to Repeat It

-- Wei Jingsheng Foundation's Video Compares Photos of Tibet 2008 with Tiananmen 1989

 

 

On this day of April 5, Chinese Memorial Day, we are mourning the Tibetans massacred this year, as well as over a million of the Tibetans killed by the Chinese Communist government over the years.

 

Also on this Chinese Memorial Day, we are still mourning the Chinese students and citizens killed in Beijing in 1989, over 80 millions of Chinese have perished under the Chinese Communist rule.

 

The violence visited upon the Tibetan people in the recent crackdowns is heartbreaking.  As the photos were coming in the remarkable similarity to the crackdown on student demonstrators of Tiananmen Square in 1989 was shocking.

 

This video, titled "Look Familiar?" reminds us that although the Beijing regime tries to project a more modern and less threatening image, the ruling Chinese Communist Party is still the same party that ruthlessly slaughtered its own youth and citizens in 1989.

 

The video shows pictures from what has been going on in the last month in Tibet and the surrounding area and pairs them with photos from 1989 democracy movement.

 

Judge for yourself...

"忘记历史的,将重演历史的悲剧"

-- 魏京生基金会新录制影像“何其相似”,将2008年的西藏与1989的天安门作一比较

 

 

值此四五清明时节,我们哀悼新近在西藏被屠杀的人们,以及中共政权下被屠杀的上百万藏人。同时,我们依然在哀悼1989年民主运动时被屠杀的学生与市民,以及共产专政下丧失的八千万无辜生命。

 

最近西藏人民所遭遇的暴力镇压,使我们的良心再受践踏。当你把有关西藏的照片与1989年天安门示威学生受到的镇压相比较,你会发现他们是惊人的相似。

 

这一段影像,题为"何其相似",提醒我们:虽然北京当局一再试图要装扮出一副比较摩登和不太凶残的形象,但当政的任然是那个在1989年残杀学生青年的中国共产党。

 

这里展示的一些照片,是2008年3月在西藏和附近地区发生的事件,与之并列对照的,是在1989年民主运动时的记录照片。
