by Summary:
Hong Kong’s increasingly xenophobic protests are devolving into chaos with help from US government regime-change outfits and a right-wing local media tycoon with close ties to hardliners in Washington. Plenty of video footage here of the protestors beating up paramedics (who are trying to help people), the police, civilians, or anyone who gets in their way. No other country would put up with this level of violence on its streets. The Western media isn't showing this, or telling the public about what is really going on in Hong Hong Kong. The Guardian ran an article the other day about the Hong Kong riots, and I said in CiF that French police have been very heavy handed towards the French protestors and 26 people have damaged eyes. Within a jiffy the Guardian removed my comment.

Trump’s befuddlement might be understandable considering the carefully managed narrative of the US government and its unofficial media apparatus, which have portrayed the protests as an organic “pro-democracy” expression of grassroots youth. However, a look beneath the surface of this oversimplified, made-for-television script reveals that the ferociously anti-Chinese network behind the demonstrations has been cultivated with the help of millions of dollars from the US government, as well as a Washington-linked local media tycoon.
Since March, raucous protests have gripped Hong Kong. In July and August, these demonstrations transformed into ugly displays of xenophobia and mob violence.
But the protests continued even after the extradition law was taken off the table — and these demonstrations degenerated into disturbing scenes. In recent days, hundreds of masked rioters have occupied the Hong Kong airport, forcing the cancellation of inbound flights while harassing travelers and viciously assaulting journalistsand police.
