Tibetan Protester or PLA Agent?
Very interesting.

“That would require us to believe that the Chinese Communists could be so devious and duplicitous as to commit an atrocity, just to blame it on the Tibetan protesters “
If you’re familiar with Sun Tzu’s “Art of War”, deception is at the top of his list.
BUMP! The Chicoms are so BUSTED!
Of course, I don't believe our own MSM has breathed a word of this debunking of an atrocity...
The charitable view would be simple embarassment: that once they have stuck their necks out and bought into it...they don't dare admit they were suckered.
The more likely true explanation is that we have had increasingly hard-core Stalinist Marxists in the editorial rooms (as shown by Obama's kid-gloves treatment) censoring, spinning and controlling the stories reported.
Thank God for the New Media.
Are you plain stupid or just intellectually dishonest? This is as ridiculous as those 9-11 was an inside job claims.
As others have pointed out in the photo proves absolutely nothing because all it shows is a single path to the torch area actually being shared by the public with both pro-China and pro-Tibetan protesters.
The second photographs are actually PAP milling about a movie set, film extras for a Michelle Yeoh movie several years ago.
The problem with all the Free Tibet claims that the rioting was actually all a false flag operation by the Chinese is that it is so simple to disprove but no one bothers to think. PAP security personnel cannot speak Tibetan, no Chinese cadres speak Tibetan. It’s impossible to incite and direct a riot if you cannot communicate with other rioters. All first hand accounts by independent observers present confirm that the rioters were Tibetans.
Fact of the matter is, the Tibetans themselves are not angels, they are humans with all the gamut of human passions and failings. However since their modus operandi relies on a beatific image of innocent shangri-la pacifists, they will obfuscate, lie, and deny when facts themselves reveal them to be just like the rest of us.
Very interesting find.
