Chinese Protesters Chant "Down With US Imperialists", Attack Car Of US Ambassador In Beijing | ZeroHedge
Anti-Japan protests may have quieted down on the day after the
anniversary of Japan's invasion of China (which is not saying much:
after disappearing for two weeks, perhaps in some Las Vegas strip club,
the Chinese leader-in-waiting Xi Jinping denounced Japan's decision to buy disputed islands "as a farce"
on Wednesday and said Tokyo should "rein in its behavior"), but that
does not mean anything has been resolved, and the Chinese 1000 boat
armada is still supposedly on its way to the Senkakus. Elsewhere, the US
foreign department may have to promptly find an anti-Buddhist hate tape
made in the US, because otherwise the attack of the US ambassador Gary
Locke's car in Beijing may have to be explained using good old fashioned
simmering hatred and anti-American sentiment without an actual
inflamatory event. LA Times reports:
"The car of the U.S. ambassador to China was surrounded by a small
group of demonstrators on Tuesday, who damaged the vehicle and briefly
prevented it from entering the U.S. Embassy compound in Beijing. A
YouTube video of the incident showed the protesters chanting slogans
such as “down with the U.S. imperialists” and, in an apparent reference to the Chinese government’s purchase of U.S. government debt, “return the money!”
